grain spawn / bulk substrate
    #23204001 - 05/08/16 09:40 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

Well, on the assumption that LC might be a bit ambitious for a  "noob plus" (see my thread liquid culture jar setup), might it nonetheless be feasible to do better than PF by instead going for:

1. grain spawn in jars?
2. grain spawn in spawn bags?
3. grain-based bulk substrate?

As for the first two options, I really like the idea of being able to shake up the medium to diffuse the mycelium throughout it, and of course the advantage of bulk substrate is obvious.

You would definitely do better with grain, u choose out of the teks u find and follow it 100% for ur first few.

Dont try to mess with bags if you don't have a hood. While it's do able it's a pain.

I've never even tried using oven bags before, and I've been at this hobby for more than a year

You should spawn to small trays for your first few grows. Easier than cakes and just about the same risk, if not less. The beauty of small trays is that you can use a quart jar to make 1-2 trays and easily fill a monotub with a bunch of them. If a couple contam you would still have most of your grow going strong. With a mono, if you use 5 jars and 1 is dirty, you would have to dump it all.
