Jars from round 1 I think I forgot to ever shake at all, but they are not doing badly for only having gotten about 1.5mls LC each....hoping everything stays looking good!
All 42 jars show clean mycelium, and all 42 have been shaken at least once and that will probably be it.....now just gotta wait a couple more weeks for the latest round jars to colonize!

Did I read that correctly that you did 10ml LC to one jar in round 5? How's it look?

This is one of the jars from round 5 that got the regular 1.5mL inoculation (left) The jar on right was inoculated with 10mLs LC 5 days ago...as you can see it's about 70% colonized already....

At first I was thinking I'd make 7 monotubs using 6qts of spawn each....now I'm thinking I'll make 8 with 5qts spawn each...what do you all think?

My 66L A/PE are 5 pints each. Still seemed like a decent amount of spawn to bulk. 1:3 or so.
My 99 was 6 pints but a very vigorous culture and was 90% at day 7.
Log is still a WIP though. Taking lots of notes. Dry weight : spawn is the main statistic I'm curious about. That and keeping the 'time to 100% consolidation' around a week to ensure contams aren't given much hatching time

The first few jars are reaching full colonization, and all jars are well on their way! Should be awning monotubs by Wednesday! Pretty excited to reach this stage, as I am mostly curious how these are going to perform verses each other and more important my last logged grow...coming up on the last of the boring grain jar pictures:

Going ahead and spawning a tub this afternoon! Ready to see this happen!

Have made the decision to make 8 mono tubs total, 6 with 5qts spawn, and 2 with 6qts spawn. Adds a new vector of observation.

So when I spawn my monotubs I like to let the grain spawn hydrate by soaking it in water for about 15 minutes before mixing the tub....do you guys do this?

First of 8 tubs spawned! Five qts of spawn to one brick coir, 2.5 qts vermiculite and 2 handfuls Gypsum! Hydrated/pasteurized with ~5.5qts water!

I am still in the school of taping up the holes for colonization then introducing to fruiting conditions and casing at full colonization....I mean I expect this to be fully colonized in 3-4 days....

Yeah, I dunk my grains also but I don't wait for any amount of time. I just start filling my jars one by one and once they are all full I will start draining them in the order that I filled them.

Can you use straight tap water ? We have arsenic in the water where I'm at its an old mining town I mean it's miniscule

Yeah, tap works fine. Shrooms shouldn't bioaccumulate to any harmful degree. It's thought that even shrooms grown on a good amount of toxic shit should be safe to eat but they still recommend not to eat shrooms growing around stuff like that.
At any rate, the amount of arsenic in your water will be too little for it to harm you through mushroom bioaccumulation. I would think that if you had a harmful quantity of any chemical in your tap water, they wouldn't be giving it to people. Dunno how it is over there but here tap water needs to be safe to drink to be allowed to be given to the public.

Well I meant as far as not making the grains funky ... I drink the tap I've put more harmful drugs in my body than some arsenic in the water can do harm haha I just didn't know if I should sterilize the water first

Nah, sterilizing it probably won't get rid of the chemicals anyway unless that specific chemical breaks down at those temps.
Oyster mushrooms are able to grow with water that is salty as fuck. Stamets is working on something called the Mycoboom, it's this straw log of oysters that's thrown into water to absorb oil spills. He tested it in some lake that is almost as salty as the ocean and it still grew shrooms. The mycelium doesn't give a fuck about most things as long as it's healthy.

Cubes are bioaccumlators of mercury. Don't grow cubes on salmon.
