If low nutes from the agar, you still get good LI, correct? Which is still decent yeah? How much better is LC fhan LI and why?

I'm pretty sure LC is faster by a few days because of the nutes. not to mention the fact that it colonizes the water in a LC. but the fact that your agar is too hard makes LI difficult

I do lc to lc all the time. Grain water lc is king for secondly lc. I never have any luck with the hard agar breaking up in lc now.

Ahh I got you. I was thinking my "super ez LC" agar looked quite hard, and I'd basically be pouring sterile water on top of a hard puck. Doesn't sound too ideal. So I thought softening it up a little may help get the nutrients spread about the water.
The agar being hard will not effect the nutrients ability to leach into the water.

I have read all your tek's and I use the pastyplates. I was wondering if you use a flowhood at any point. I have seen many impressive grows and I am sure you would have one.
I may try this one next!

No I don't have a flowhood. No space for one even if I did own one. Every grow I ever did was just with my lowly SAB.

With a "lowly" SAB, a big pc and some LC skills, you can perfectly become a shroom factory, IF need be...

Yeah sab is all you need. Flowhoods are sweet but expensive . I'm about to upgrade my SAB for like 20 bucks. Building a hood would be like $200+.

Excellent!! I think its time to invest 20 bucks and build a better one because mine was a first attempt and really blows.
Good to know all your grows were done without expensive equipment; just good old common sense, patients and clean spawn!

Get a tall one. Nothing is more annoying than trying to do G2G in a hobbit sab.

This tek really changed the game for me.
I'll post a few pics in the cult pic of the day thread, but I have over 20 of these in glass jars going and so far results are good.
I'm using slightly bigger jars now, with the goal of getting a good couple 20ml syringes of LC going to noc up grains.
Thanks PastyWhyte!

Does this look correct?
Pastys super ezLC roughly 2 days after adding water. I've been rolling it twice a day.

I'm not liking the growth pattern there. Maybe it's nothing, see how it looks in a few days.

how often should I be agitating this? instead of following the tek I tiger dropped into some sterile grain water. it's kinda dark to see any growth (if there is any yet)

The chunks are like agar from the sides about an inch up the jar. When I swirled, they all came clean off. I'm gonna leave it alone for a bit.

If I usually use DFA and am transferring from DFA would switching to a different nut source like brf be a good idea for the ezlc?
Also, If I am using a quart jar and plan to add say 500ml of water or so Should I make a really thick agar puck or should I just up the nutes accordingly?
