2 KSSS Mono tubs...50 and 66 qt
    #23707290 - 10/04/16 03:44 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Original spores were run through on cakes and I took prints of those fruits. I swiped the spores from my prints to agar and transferred a bunch of wedges. Once I had clean colonized plates, I Tic Tac Toe Tiger Dropped them into jars of sterilized Rye berries. Shook the jars at 30-50%, once they recovered and fully colonized I spawned them, and put the tubs directly into fruiting conditions.

The first photo is the 50 qt tub. It has a CVG substrate depth of 4-4.5 inches and was spawned 17 days ago. I honestly forgot how many quarts of spawn i used but I think it was around 3.5 quarts to 7 qts CVG for a 1:2 ratio. This tub is already pinning all over, including side pins.

The second photo is the 66 qt tub. It has a CVG substrate depth of 3 inches and was spawned 11 days ago Same ratio was used as above, 3.5 quarts spawn to 7 quarts substrate for a 1:2 ratio. No pins yet.

I have a third tub to be spawned later this week. This one will be my first colonized round of grain to grain transfers. 1 jar into 7. I will be spawning all 7 into another 66qt tub with CVG, but at a 1:1 ratio....Stay tuned!!:jah:

Well I spawned the grain, mized it with the CVG, and then covred it with a layer of plain CVG to protect the mixed grain. So in that sense it is, But I put the tub directly into fruiting conditions and the mycellium is just tearing through it like its regular substrate, so I dont know what to call it, hahahah!

Might be just me but the sub surface seems a little dry. These guys really like to take their time eh? Especially that 66qt

You might be right, this is my first run through going directly to fruiting conditions and I haven't been home much to tend to them. I just doused them with mist, hopefully that's what they needed.
  They do seem to be taking a bit long. But temperatures are dropping here so it's in the high 60s to low 70s now, which I'm sure slows them down a bit.

I fruit my tubs in that temperature all the time
72f is the highest ive gone. Normally 65f to 72f is my ideal temp.

Maybe your fan is drying it out.

well thats good to know! My place gets real hot in the summer sometimes close to 80, I hate running the AC, I'm cheap lol...So since i started this summer, and the temps have cooled recently, Ive noticed that everything from colonizing grain to fruiting seems to take a bit longer, and the mushies havea much more dense solid/heavy feel to them in the cooler temps, I like that aspect for sure, but I got acclimated to the speedy colonization at higher temps lol, guess I'm spoiled...

Looks like possibly too much spawn to me

What was your spawn ratio?

Otherwise I'd guess ur spawn wasn't healthy those don't look like they'll pull out of it

Mayyybe get a decent second flush, maybe... I've had that happen

lol, theres no such thing as "too much spawn", going above 1:1 is kind of redundant, but using a lot of clean spawn does NOT cause problems...in fact it makes colonization faster due to more inoc points as well as putting out better/heavier and more flushes...

You should look into using a fish tank heater just to keep your jars at 81f

That would help but you are still using electricity.

Not me central air is on all summer/fall
How can you stay that hot...lmao

I used a 1:2 ratio on both of the tubs.The spawn was clean as far as i could tell and was 3.5 quarts spawn to 7 quarts sub. The 50 qt is one week older then the 66 qt.

The 50 quart is only 22 days old and pinning like crazy...there are literally thousands, more and more keep developing every day. I dont think its stalling but i could be wrong...

The 66 qt is only 15 days old, and just began pinning yesterday...

I think the uneven flushing has more to do with skiping colonization and it being a multi spore grow...but again i could be wrong...

Yeah I was definitely thinking about that and i have a heater too..It was part of the total scam grow kit I purchased when I was just getting into the hobby.

Atleast i will put some of that garbage to use!! hahahaa

Sometimes I turn it on at night just so I can sleep but that's about it...I am absolutely miserable when I'm too hot too hahhaha

I worked with a guy for years who never turned his A/C on because he never had one. He had like 4 kids too. I never understood it myself.

I think your fine with what you decide to do. I keep my sub rather moist but not everyday..like every 2 days i mist it. If its drying out maybe dial your tub in some more and see if that helps any

No problem glad i sorta helped and thanks!

Once your fan is on check the moisture rings. Should be like half an inch in diameter around the holes. Thats what i look for when i do mine. It may help.

My holes arent exactly 2" more like 1.5" maybe bit less even.
So i just go by half inch radius but that works for me so i keeo doing it.
Since your holes are bigger than mine, you may want bigger moisture circles
You know what i mean? I dont want to confuse you anymore than what im confused as right now.  Frank has a good write up about how to dial your tub in. Just in case you havent read it before.

I did 1.5 inch holes in the tub, but i thought i needed 2" rings of evaporation around the holes. I need to tighten up the poly for sure...

Ill check out Frank's tek, I breezedthrought it a while back but i guess i didnt absorb as much as i should have lol...

Yeah peteyboy I think you may benifit from bottom watering at this point. I forgot you fruited at spawn. If there was too much air flow and you didnt mist until now then your sub is probably drying out.

I taped my holes and fruited after ten days and got pins only two days after fruiting. There was lots of moisture to go around during growth and even after my first harvest I found my sub could use a heavy misting.

I know you want to see beads of moisture on your sub while your pinset is coming in. But not sure how that works with a casing... maybe a TC can chime in about that one

I trust you Comeback, but I will wait to hear from a TC, I gave them a real heavy misting this morning after you mentioned it looked dry, almost too heavy, had to grab a paper towel and sop up some standing water...Things do look more lively already and its only been a few hours!

Looks like possibly too much spawn to me




lol, theres no such thing as "too much spawn", going above 1:1 is kind of redundant, but using a lot of clean spawn does NOT cause problems...in fact it makes colonization faster due to more inoc points as well as putting out better/heavier and more flushes...




Yes, there is such thing as too much spawn

Over 2:1 can cause problems just like I'm seeing pictured. I've grown ksss many times.

It can also cause mutants. Also can cause blobs if I'm not mistaken?? Mutants for sure tho

If u used 1:2 ratio, the spawn wasn't clean. I just had this happen to me as well recently pins looked JUST like that and it was the same strain also lol

Cronicr called it, bad spawn. Pm cronicr ask him what he thinks... I bet he says bad spawn

Do the shake test from now on

Spawn ratio = (wet weight of spawn TO a dry weight of substrate)

Hmmm well the jars looked fantastic and smelled incredible too.

What's the shake test? I shook them at 50 percent and they recovered quickly with no problems I could see.

I used 3.5 qts to one brick of coir...whatever that equals out to be lol..

Your ratio is fine. Next time I would add a quart or two of verm mixed with the coir. Verm is better than coir for holding moisture which will help keep your sub from drying.

I'm not sure what "the" shake test is. But I know that the harder it is to break up your spawn the more bacterial it is. Clean spawn will break up easily just from the g force of shaking without hitting the jar against your hand.

By the shake test I mean this..

Once ur jars are fully colonized, and u have waited a few days to ensure that they are surely colonized...

Then u shake them one last time. A healthy jar will recolonize within 12-24 hrs. No more than 24-48 hrs...

The jar shouldn't FULL recolonize and turn SOLID white like before u had shaken it. But it will recolonize enough for u to see little bits if fluffy new growth around each kernel of grain. And also I like to GENTLY tip the jars upside down. If the jar holds together and the grains do not fall when tipped upside down after waiting 12-24 hrs. Maybe 48hrs.. then its good to go

If the grains fall when tipped upside down I view that jar with suspicion. Sometimes when the kernels are super dry they don't hold too well for too long... but they should..

Bad jars usually are obvious just by appearance. They most often will never fully recolonize. U will know. Then u know that jar had bacteria

Unfortunately, they arent lookin good...They both seem to have stalled...Ive only collected like a qaurter off both of them...

Raven44 was correct in his assessment...something is wrong...my guess is most likely bacterial spawn. I'm honestly not sure though...:shrug:

Noo... It can't be true, I thought it was cleaned up on agar?
:resignednonacceptance:
Did you just toss them?

Yeah i thought it was cleaned up but I guess it wasnt, Im still a newb so I'm still developing my eye for contams. I didnt toss em though, it looks like the mycellium is coming up over the millions of pins that aborted.Maybe something will come on the second flush...

Im not giving up by any means...I'm working on clean cultures while I sit these tubs out and patiently wait...

The shake test will never steer you wrong in my experience

Just don't expand the jar if it doesn't pass the test. Period no if ands or buts lol

One time I thought I could get away w some condensation being present... nope. My shit looked like yours

From then on, I do the shake test and haven't had and tubs do that to me again thankfully.

I will be doing this from now on...so once it's 100% colonized you shake the jar up and if it colonizes 100% again then you know it's clean?

It should be recovering within 24 hours 48 should be pretty much recolonized

It doesn't look recolonized exactly how it was before u shook it... but u can Def tell the mycelium ALL recovered and got fuzzy again around each kernal. It will be a little less white, not as solid white looking as before but u will know. Just make sure there is ZERO greasy looking spots or wet spots that don't get fuzzy again

Moat importantly, I gently tip the jar upside down and make sure all the kernal are held together as one solid chunk of spawn.. then tip it right side up gently right away.. just a quick teat

Also, wait a day or so after its 100% colonized
