Cracks happen in substrates, won't ruin them. Never heard of wafer Tek.

Oldtimer, from mycotopia back in the day, coined it 'wafer tek' I believe.
Was the second method I used after PF.
Basically just cut cakes into discs and have one thin layer of spawn under a thin layer of substrate in a tray.

Man if you can get 3lbs into 80ml that’ll be some dangerous shit lol. It’ll be the fentanyl of shrooms.

Good luck I hope you figure it out that’d be so awesome.

Here's the link to the mycotopia achieve and a discussion thread on it. Someone mentioned it in another thread, maybe confessions?, and I find it intriguing. Though I just read back through it and at first I thought I was a layer a verm, wafer, verm. Basically simulating a cake rolled in verm. But it says verm, wafer, peat casing. I have cased with verm in the past some maybe?
Also could used coir\verm mix I used for minis, but at that point I almost feel like crumbling in a shoebox of cour\verm would be better.

I haven't heard any 'topia archive talk out of anyone but myself since I registered here.
Well, maybe eats and faht.
But yeah... I think I surfaced the wafer tek earlier in this thread. I got similar results to what you see in OT's post.
Doesn't seem there's much of it going around shroomery, I assume it's something that got repelled when there was more of a feud between the two sites.

Did you use a peat casing when you did it?

That tek is spawning to bulk back when you couldnt figure out how to spawn to bulk.

I remember reading that tek back in the day but instead of wafers I just mashed up my cakes and dumped it into shallow trays and covered with 2inches of microwaved coir. Called em casings:facepalm3: Aka.. spawning to bulk.

Right.
I think the idea was that slicing it required less recovery than crumbling.
I tried crumbling, too. In a plastic bag to 'keep it sterile'.
For whatever reason, I just found better results with the wafers.

For me, it was a way to dip my feet in bulk spawning before I got a PC and did grain.
Grain was easier.

So solids of goodies form in the shroom tea when you dump equal parts freezing ethanol in the mix? And then what, you jst scrape out the goodie crystals that form and dry it?
The only problem i have so far with this is the letting mushroom dust water hang out. I did that once with a couple oz and after 24hrs it had turned into botulism tea. Wud a ratio of water with some alcohol to prevent death be ok? Using 2.5 to 3lbs of dry fruit boddies here.

Basically i wud jst like to wind up with 3lbs reduced to 60-80ml of mega strength liquid that's not black tar gunk. Figured I'd wind up with something more refined at the end.





i want to know more about this

It seems to be that it's more or less just that a lot of folk on Mycotopia (and the r/shrooms subreddit) are more into "grow a handful of mushrooms as fast as possible," rather than being a full-blown hobby.

Alright I built this hood and it has about a 6x6 inch dead zone in the middle of the right side Filter. Is this hood totally fucked? I got the filter on eBay for cheep so I’m thinking I’ll just order a new filter from FP and rebuild it. What do u guys think? Is it salvageable or should I rebuild with new filter?

If you boarded off a little inside to make it a smaller chamber maybe that would at least get a constant flow

Or even do this



It sounds like your fan isnt big enough.  I used a fan a little big too big and then dialed it back on a controller

U have nothing to lose

My fan is bigger than needed actually. It’s a Dayton 1TDU2, it puts out way more than what the filter requires. I’m just bogging it down right now. Most people say it’s better than putting a controller on the blower. I’ll try what you said to do thanks :thumbup:

For those who are wondering, my sketchy AA941 that I ordered has, according to the tracking info, arrived at the USPS distribution center in my city. I believe it still has to make it to my neighborhood post office before it goes out for delivery so I would expect it the day after tomorrow, tomorrow if I'm lucky. Again, I will keep you all updated

Last time I ordered one they held it at the UPS depot and I had to pick it up.

I sold it years ago to a food kitchen, if this works out for you I'll definitely be ordering one from that site

I got my co2 meter and it's reading high but i'm not sure i trust it. I really don't think it's that temperature in my grow room.

I'm checking it with multiple thermos at the moment. But i don't really need to. I've been monitoring my grow room temp for quite some time. It's simply not that hot in there.
