Monos are supposed to be no-maintenance if you dial them in right, I'm just trying a bunch of different things because I enjoy it, and wouldn't even know what to do with a full mono worth of mushrooms. :smile:




Eat em haha :badshroom:

Considering spores can survive the vacuum of space, I would assume it's safe to say that mushrooms are on every planet waiting for the right conditions to present themselves. What it all boils down to, is aliens are on shrooms.

Well, you see, there's this limit on how often I want to trip so hard that I close my eyes and spend the next couple hours seeing where the music comes from.  :laugh:

If you are serious about just growing as a hobby and not to get a ton of crop then you would probably really enjoy the pf tek

Also, if you're into it as a hobby and not just a way to get cheap trips, try a bunch of different things, and get into agar sooner rather than later.  I do know for a fact that a SGFC will work with your schedule, and that it ends up being pretty versatile as well.  With a sgfc, a still air box, and a pressure cooker, you can explore pretty much anything this hobby has to offer.  :smile:

i have a similar schedule. so planning and timing work on the weekends is vital. i have 1 pressure cooker that holds 10 quarts. you can cook 10 quarts a night. if you do this every night or a few days a week. you can inoculate all your jars on saturday. if you time things properly you can do most of the maintenance work on your free time as well.

for me time is valueable. so liquid inoculants help me shave days and up to weeks off the colonization times on grain. this allows me to time things to just about 7 days to spawn from inoculation of grain. so i can inoculate on saturday. and have jars ready to spawn by the next saturday.

you can pasteurize your bulk subs in the oven friday night. let them cool so they are ready saturday morning.

so a custom routine i follow is this for saturdays.

sleep in. wake up take a shower.

inoculate grain jars.

spawn tubs.

do maintenance work such as transfers to agar, harvesting ect.

now the only thing that is tough to time and control is harvest. that happens when it wants to. so some days i have to wake up at the ass crack of dawn to be out the door by 8am and on the road.

getting a small fan, 2 timers at home depot, t8-6500k bulb 2 foot length.  and grow light fixture for a 2 foot wide bulb at walmart is pretty simple. i run a 12/12 on off light cycle. and i put the fan on for 3 hours and off for 30 minutes in a small closet. the fan is pointed directly up at the ceiling not in the direction of the tubs. this pushes airflow up and around the tubs. the tub stacks are slightly elevated so that airflow can move underneath them. depending on environment, you may need to adjust the polyfil in holes depending on high humidity or arid desert.

you can stack tubs ceiling high if you want to get the most out of your space. i find shotgun fruiting chambers more maintenance than monotubs. even large automated humidified setups can be more work than plain monotubs.

once you place your bulk tubs in the setup. there isnt much maintenance other than harvesting. you may need to occasionally water depending on your geographic location(desert, humid climate ect)
