Hello

I am reading one of the PF tek's on this site. I am a little confused about spore syringes. Is it smarter to prepare a liquid culture in honey water or to use the spore syringe directly into the brf cakes? Thanks everyone this site has been a wealth of info.

Y'know, I don't think I've ever heard of anyone using LC to inoculate cakes, probably because it's a bad idea. LCs are notoriously difficult to detect contams in, and you should really be inoculating the LCs with agar wedges for large bulk grows. Is this your first grow? MS straight into PF cakes is the typical process.

Thanks for simplifying it. I want to keep my first time as simple and sterile as possible to provide opportunity for growth. How many grams does each cake produce?

Of course a flow hood makes things easier but it is not necessary to get successful results. A lot of experienced cultivators around here don't have a flow hood but still show great success.

wait.
"Oh wow good for you."
... Is this an offense?
People try to help you. Calm down...

No I meant sincerely that I am glad you have perfected your skills. I hope to become proficient like that someday.

I should have been more precise in my language. It was meant as a compliment........

A flow hood is extreme overkill unless you're running a mushroom farm or something where you have ridiculous amounts of spawn being made. A SAB is more than enough.
I maintain over 15 active cultures and many many more gourmet ones with only a SAB. This is about half of what I have going:

I do plan to start a legit mushroom farm though, so I will build a flow hood eventually.
Also OP, try not to triple post. Condense your writing to a single post at a time. Otherwise it bumps your thread to the top of the forum constantly and fills pages faster. (Annoying as hell and against the rules.)
