DIY HydroShrooms?
    #23652344 - 09/17/16 07:43 AM (7 years, 4 months ago)

Was thinking about making a hydroponic chamber out some old storage boxes i found in my closet, I think I've got all the shit I need and I've grown my cakes but does anyone have any tips on building and function ect?

I talked to my friend about it before and he says he'd has the most success due to the mushrooms growing aggressively in the nitrated water.

This is what a proper SGFC can do



Those shrooms look fuckin starved of FAE in your pic, they had way too much humidity and went all wrinkly because of it, and the cakes also look dry AF. They needed more direct misring, which would be very detrimental with no FAE. That's a crap chamber. For the last decade SGFCs have dominated PMPs in both design and function.

That is how I built a working hydro shroom chamber aka pmp (poor man's pod). The cost of materials is around $100. A lot of people build one of these and then skimp on the airpumps which kind of defeats the whole idea of getting enough fresh air without having to fan and leads to poor performance. Also it may be worth noting that the pmp is currently out of popular favor here on the boards. So if you build one and then ask for any advice someone will inevitably tell you to build a sgfc or that you should have done a mono.

The sgfc is kind of a pain in the ass to get set up, but does work very well if kept properly hydrated.

The plain tub with perlite in the bottom works just as well as the previous two methods if it's fanned 6+ times a day. If you're only planning on growing a few cakes one time there is no reason to build an elaborate set up if you're going to be there every day to be able to fan and mist.

And lastly and best of all are mono tubs or bulk trays. I like using millet and spawning it to horse manure.

There are lots of different ways to get some fruits and lots of people around here willing to help you out with that.

Here is a tek I have used for years with great success.

Good luck and welcome to the shroomery!

If you want to grow cakes your best choice is a SGFC (clear tote with 1/4" holes in 2 x 2" grid pattern kn all six sides, 5" damp perlite anx the chamber raise off the surface at the corners).

It needs to be listed a few times a day... pretty minimal maitinence.


If you want set and forget,  you can break up your cakes and spawn to a bulk substrate, or.. better yer buy a starter pressure cooker and make grain spawn.

This gives you the option to fruit in a mono tub or dub tub, Whivh need no real maitinence and are just left alone until harvest.




  So yea- dont build a "hydroponic fruiting chamber".

Make sure the holes go on every side including bottom and lid, I saw some big tubs the other day think it was tesco for like £8-£9 then you just need about 4-5 inch of damp perlite use regular tap water, and stick your cakes on some foil cut to suit the cakes then sit cakes on foil on perlite. Make sure the tubs elevated to allow air flow

If he has his heart set on building a hydropod there really is no reason he shouldn't build one up, dial it in and post awesome pictures. Unless of course he doesn't want to have to pick mushrooms every other day...










All of these cakes are fruited in pods just like the one I linked. :wink:

I remember when the kids first started talking about monotubs too, so you know I had to try one...





You did say something about a sgfc right? Well like I said they are a pain in the ass to put together and then you got to put them up on some kind of feet, they drip water so you got to deal with that and they are hardly stackable. They do work tho, I'll give ya that. :smile:







Of course all those picks posted were Kramer cakes, but my favorite way is always the old schoolist of them all, Kramer cakes spawned to some good old cow pies cut with vermiculite 50/50.




:costanza:


I guess it really doesn't matter how you do it so long as the basic principles are followed.  Everything pictured was sa multi-spore inoculated Kramer cakes, except the last two pictures, I would give something away to anyone who could guess, but giveaways aren't allowed in this forum.

Seriously tho I got a great giveaway! I just remembered how you check your hydropod type pod to see if your pumps are pushing enough air. Smoke a joint or a bong it or something and then get something to munch on, after that just relax for a minute and then plug your pumps in and put the hoses in your mouth, don't breathe any air except what you can get from the airpumps, if you can't breathe then neither will your chamber. Don't try this if you have asthma or any other conditions that would affect your breathing.

But really a tray with some type of bulk substrate and grain spawn is probably the easiest way to go for sure, cake chambers are fun to fuck around with at first, but then they become a pain in the ass to fuck with because they are needy high maintenance bitches on the real real.

So if he wants to build a hydropod and he's got the extra money those things cost to put together let him go out and buy some air pumps, tubing, bubble wands, and whatever, but don't let him skimp out and buy the cheap airpumps tho, because then he will be posting back talking about how much the pod sucks.:lol:
