Been a minute ya'll, hope all's been well--returning to my natural state of checking Shroomery every hour lol.
Had a quick question, my FFU finally came in but the corner brackets were bent during shipping and I don't know what the best way to secure the filter to the fan housing is. Any tips? I'd prefer not to drill into the fan housing and I don't have the capability to make a wooden frame right now. There's foam all around the filter frame so I just need a way to keep it all pressed together and make sure air isn't coming out the sides or anything.

Thanks Vinci, I was thinking of clamps like those as well. I reckon one clamp on each side would be strong enough to prevent air leaks.
I was looking for a more elegant solution honestly but that might not be possible without drilling/making some kind of wooden frame for the thing. If anyone has come up with something though, let me know!

Damn, that sucks. Were you there when it was delivered? I would have sent that bitch back. When I received mine, the driver was supposed to call me a half hour before he arrived. Long story short, he did not call me a head of time so I called his dispatcher and made him wait until I could make it home from work just so I could inspect it before he left.

Yeah it kind of blows, I wasn't able to be there when it was delivered so I couldn't inspect it and I'm kind of just stuck with it now.
I'm sure it'll work fine once I find a way to secure the two pieces. The filter looks okay and even just pressing the two pieces together with my hands seemed to produce enough airflow to bend a lighter almost 90 degrees but it sucks that both units were dinged up and had screws come loose during shipping. And to top it all off a fucking roach died inside the box. -_-
Ratchet strap might work as well but I'm a little worried about pulling the filter like that.

I always do 200-250ml broths. They are ready quicker and the volume is easier to handle and can inoculate a shit of grains.
Sometimes when noobs post entire quarts of lc its like, what exactly are you using all that power when they probably grow few tubs of cubes at most.
I am a noob...is what it is. I have four slightly less than 200ml broths going in 1/2-pint talls. Two are so obviously contam'd even I can see it. I think. The other two are looking clean to noob-eyes. Been swirling; it's fun, like watching a snow-globe.
And I will be doubtless growing more than I need. Eventually. Because I like the whole cult-obssession thing. Will deal with oversupply later, when it's real.
Here's on of two. Odd pink blob...wonder what the scientific nomenclature for this is. Contam...

Clean2?

no one can tell you if you're lc is clean. You need to test on agar when it's done to confirm.
Those jars you posted look good.
I wouldn't stress about making too much. You'll tighten it up as you do it more and I don't think there's any real major drawbacks.

Yea they been a bit of a hit around here. Both for potency and the look. I haven't sacrificed any virgins, mostly just playing music or spending time outside. Simple things
I messed with ape so many times with no luck I finally just got a syringe from the man that made'em. Plates looking nice so far on just 1 transfer So i got higher hopes for this run.

Every time i thought I had a clean culture worked out from a swab and grew it out, the tubs went to crap. I think I've been missing enmeshed molds most of the time.

Ahh...enmeshed molds. Yeah i been keeping a shap eye on the difference between mold enmeshed and apparently some myc jst looks like fucking mold to me. I shud knw this shit by now but my mind had disintegrated.
Myc b4 it really starts sectioning looks kinda moldish to me too. Makes it difficult to differentiate between the two on a germ plate.
However, i dnt thnk ive ever seen Ape myc with that mold look. Germination from swabs can be a bizatch though.

APE is an elusive bitch for many. My first time with it went perfectly well, this second time has been rougher.

I’ve also had a rough go with apes, only ever fruited them once.
Super dumb too cuz for whatever reason I didn’t clone any, and my main issue has been getting clean myc.
Actually apeu has been a pain in the ass too. Finally grabbed a clone the other day though. After messing around for months trying to get a clean culture it’s kind of funny how excited I was when I got healthy looking pin and could finally clone and bypass all the cleaning.
