Well, I'm at 10 days in so far, and I hope to some knowledge and critiques on practices. I am also going to set my goals here. I will update as things progress.

I am following RR's Let's Grow Mushrooms BRF tek, and my wife is sick of watching the DVD's, lol.

Strain is TC, btw.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I sterilized at o dark hundred and nocked up 9 1/2 pint jars at dinner time. I used little over 1cc per jar since I was a jar short of 10. I have them elevated on top of my still air box, and the temp reads out at 76F. Wish me luck as it was an old syringe. Over and out.

Day 4 Looks like a bit of fuzz at the injection points on the glass on 2 of the jars, and it is got me in an ecstatic mood. Patience is a virtue, and I'm trying, but I'm not that virtuous.

When there is something to picture of, I will post some pics :smile:
Over and out.

Day 7 Only 3 jars show any sign of life. I know, patience. At any rate, here are a pic or two of what has happened so far...





I know that it is not much, and that it is still early, but I'm proud of accomplishing anything at all. I guess that that's it for today. Peace out, people :smile:

Day 9 Nothing much to report other than seeing myc in 7 out of 9 jars. Patience, I know. It's a bitch. That is all.

Day 11 took a few pics. Some of them seem to be colonizing near the verm layer. To solve this I will put the holes right up on the edge of the lis so as to get the needle farther down. Correct me if I'm wrong about this, please. Anyways, on to the pictures...











There you have it. A fair representation of whats going on  :smile: Later tater

Day 13 Well, now I am down to six jars that show growth. I lost one that had myc but got trych. I surely hope that I can get even one shroom out of the whole damned thing. Time will tell...

Day 18 Well, I have rhizomorphic myc, and thats a good thing. I can tell that I bumped the temp up a hair bit and opened the blinds. On to the pics :smile:













I hope that all 6 make it through. The other 2 still have not showed any signs of being nocked up.

Well done you never really get used to the waiting but after a few goes you know its in the jars best interest to leave them alone. They seem to grow faster the less you look at them :lol:

I plan on dunking my cakes after full colonization +7, then rolling in verm and placing in a SGFC. I am at home all day so can take care of it.

I have the intention of going to agar as soon as i get the first flush in. I also plan on getting a sporeprint or 5 as well to make syringes with. Basically trying to not keep all of my eggs in one basket.

Will post pics of progress so far in the AM. to tired to go down to the shed tonight. Peace out, yall.

You won't need syringes if you use agar just scrape the print a little onto the agar.

Have to gather monies to get to the agar and I have the necessary things for syringes already. I am in and out of the hospital all the time, so I pinch supplies while I'm there :smile:

New pics added, though there isn't much to see.

I plan on nocking up some corumba brazilia in the next day or two and compare how it goes compared to TC.

The problem is without agar, your knocking up shit filled syringes with a high potential of failure. Prints aren't sterile so all the shit in the air is on the print, then in syringe then into whatever you grow on. Cakes may get away with it but grains tend to be less forgiving

I use a SAB, and I plan on building myself a laminar flow hood on down the line when i get some cash coming in. I follow sterile procedures religiously. If I still get contams then at least I know that I eliminated as many threats that I could. So be it.

I am trying to gather supplies to go agar, and cash flow is the problem atm but the desire is there. I am all about efficiency, and agar seems to me the most efficient way to achieve this.

Good man I buy my agar well PDA premixed on eBay for a few quid in the long run not as cost effective as making your own, but if your not using a lot of agar all the time IMO the better option.

I will probably buy pre-mixed for the first run, but I will make it myself after that. I am a DIYfer, lol. I got to make a large FC and a dehydrator, then buy a large PC, dishes and agar. After that I don't even have a clue as to what I am going to do.

I am trying to absorb as much as I can by working the search engine out. Tons of info, although I find it funny that the same shit gets asked over and over again. In the wrong forum most of the time to boot.  :facepalm: It's like they have never used a forum before.

I guess there's nothing special about my thread, as I can hear the crickets, so thanks for keeping up a dialogue :smile: I will post a few more pics on Sunday, as a way of doing a status report.

Don't make a dehydrator if you want to do it proper buy one, the best advice I can give

Excited to see your progress. I just buried the last of my cakes in the garden. Who knows, maybe something with sprout one day. Starting over when I get paid again. Been reading up on Stamets in the mean time.

I cold smoke meats at around the same temps store bought dehydrators run at but just a little cooler, and the principal is the same. Or should be. Low heat w/ airflow, minus the smoke. That can be achieved by a hotplate, an electric coil, a small heater, just about anything that will generate heat that you can push air across. Or you could do an Ugly Drum Smoker, just choke it off to 200 degrees or so. Best thing is you could bbq with it as well.

You could knock out a dehydrator large enough to handle a couple of pounds at a time in an afternoon :smile:

Peace
