Going on vacation for 4 weeks. Start jars now?
    #23474906 - 07/25/16 09:30 AM (7 years, 7 months ago)

I am going on a trip in 3 days and i thought about preparing some jars before i go.
Going to be away for 4 weeks and if I prepare them and leave them in a dark closet.
do you think they will be okay?
would be so nice when i come back and they are ready for the fruiting chamber :smile:

If you inoculate them before you go on your trip, then yes, definitely do them before you go on your trip.

If you're planning on sterilizing the jars now and not inoculating them for another 4 weeks, I would wait to sterilize them until you're ready to inoculate them.

Presto 23-Quart Pressure Cooker
BOD's Simple as FUCK Still Air Box
PastyWhyte's Easy Agar Tek
Munchauzen's Cultivation Video Series
How EvilMushroom666 Prepares His Grains (I use jars with Synthetic Filter Discs)
What is G2G? (Grain-to-Grain)
Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary)
Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful)
Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.

Don't leave em in a dark closet. Darkness is outdated and the mycelium benefits from light at all stages. If the only place you have to keep them is dark then fine, it won't hurt them. But I would just put them on a shelf.

Inoculate and leave em. Will make the waiting less painful if your route is spores to cakes. Sometimes germination alone can take two weeks.

Definitely inoculate now. Goal is to "skip" the waiting time... I become impatient sometimes :laugh:

Yeah, heard that they benefit from light. I just thought maybe the mycelium grows slower in darkness. So i don't have to worry about pinning in the jar.

alright guys. time to get some brown rice. have a B+ spore print and A+.
That is a win win situation. Having a nice trip and coming home having a nice harvest. haha

Just don't leave it in a place with direct sunlight. Even if it takes 2 weeks to colonize the cake, you'd still desire a 2 week consolidation period anyways. IMO inoc and go for a month is perfect lol

He plans these trips specifically because he's going to inoculate. Bosses don't have time to wait.  :dealwithit:
