Difference in spawn ratios
    #23197002 - 05/06/16 08:31 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

So how much of an actual difference would you expect to see going from a 1:2 ratio to a 1:4?

Would it be evident in the first flush or is it one of those things that you would notice diminished results in the 2nd and 3rd flushes?

Would it be evident at all? Not that it matters too much but I'm referring to wbs to coir.

Obviously colonization times are going to suffer a bit but I'm talking about output: quality, size, etc

Yes it will matter. You will certainly see a smaller first flush for sure and fewer subsequent flushes typically.

I'm used to only getting one flush anyways lol.


I ask because I may go back to using my 105qt tubs and they take 2 bricks coir and I make my bags 4qts. I'd like to only use one 4qt bag per 105 qt so I don't have to make double the amount of spawn.

Also since I haven't noticed a difference between a 1:1 and a 1:2  but a 1:4 is a bit more of stretch

Higher spawn ratios will give you killer first flushes, and shittier later flushes.
Lower ratios will give you more consistent, multiple flushes.
For a contam king like yourself, I'd suggest high ratios.
Why don't you pop in aaw anymore?

Pretty sure that because using higher spawn ratios will decrease colonization time, it will also increase chance of beating out contams.

I use the 1:2 ratio, give or take 1-2 jars depending on the state of the jars. My tubs take 11parts spawn and 22parts sub. Typically if I see my jars are aggressive, graded on colonization time and % of rhizomorphic mycelium, I use around 10jars of spawn to 20parts sub. Obviously the sub wont be 3inches thick but near. The sub I use is CVG and I've gotten some nice fruits.

I imagine using less spawn, unless specifically selected, would take longer to colonize, tub is more vulnerable and I would imagine the flushes won't be insane or worth the time/effort

tl;dr; stick to 1:2
