KSSS, GT, Z Strain/Agar/WBS log, MOAB
    #23888366 - 12/02/16 05:43 PM (7 years, 1 month ago)

Been a long couple days without my friends on here first off, I apologize if I offended anyone by telling that fellow to suck my penis. It was a vulgar joke that I said to get a rise, not intentionally temp banned. Sorry about all that.

I shook my jars the other day. They're recovering well it seems. Figured I'd start a log. I found a receipt in my wallet for my pressure cooker. Bought it in early August. So 4 months ago, I didn't even have a pressure cooker. 2 months ago, I'd never seen agar in my life.

Thanks everyone for all the help getting me this far. Excited to keep learning and growing.


GT first, then the KSSS, then some nice WBS multispore Hawaiian trich shrooms. So glad no more multispore BS. Can't fucking wait to see how my agar WBS turns out. I have really high hopes.



My GT have micropore lids, which I later found out wasn't recommended. I figured since it worked for pasty plates it'd be ok for jars. Guess not. Anyway, they're colonizing in a SAB.

The KSSS and z strain have poly filters. I have tyvek, but didn't get it out for this. Maybe next time.

Why doesn't micro tape work for jars?

I don't know someone said too much moisture in the jars. Which makes the tape soggy or something. It just isn't recommended.

Do my jars look clean?

grain jars have a considerable amount of GE and will work any filter on the jar. its a bit more than tape can handle, so we use more resilient filter materials.

I just did a round of grain jars in the PC goin on about two weeks ago, I used the micropore tape lid method. I used one tape on the inside of the lid with the non sticky past facing the grains, then with two pieces of tape I made an + on the lid with the hole in the center, so the hole has three layers of micropore protection.

I literally just checked on them after reading this thread and not a single one has any contams in it...I'm thinking thats a good sign, right?

Mine IMO look fine. No one will answer me if my jars look good.

But I have the micropore ones colonizing in a SAB. Seems to be so far so good

Thanks man. Sorry for that shit the other day.

I have a question. I'm a little (a lot) short on funds. I have 4 27qt empty monotubs. Can I use 5 or 6 quart jars ina tub that small, just lower the substraate amount? Or can I make the sub 6-8 inches deep? 3 of my 4 tubs don't even have holes yet. I'd like to make do with what I have. I just had to go pay 500 bucks for a new fridge. That hurt real real bad. Santa's gonna be skimpy this year :/

Also Pete you're the whole and only reason I have this thread going. That's your agar and KSSS print I'm using. My letter to you got returned fucking twice and sketched me out. I need to get it back out soon real real sorry man

Also note to anyone wondering why my jars are so far apart in colonization amounts. Half used quarter agar plates, the other half I used a lot of small wedges. The larger single wedges per jar arecolonkzing much faster than a bunch of small ones.

Just done some measuing with water with my 27quarts. It got a max of 8 full water quarts for 4" of depth. So it's looking lovely kenill be able to get 1:1 at best with the amount of spawn I have.

In the last, I'd have thought damn that's great. It'll get me a good canopy. But the low quantity of water concerns me. In past experience, lower ratios have provided me with quite small mushrooms. I could bottom water I guess. But I'd like to set and forget.


You guys have any tips/stories of using 1 spawn to 1 sub?

Yeah comeback and Pete, this KSSS I'm extremely excited for. I wanted a tub full of spaceships, that's the whole reason I said damnit I'm gonna learn agar. I want a full tub of Koh Samuis real bad.

First ever time with agar clean spawn. This is Z strain. I picked the 4 best jars. The other two seem.a little chunky growth idk. No big deal. Will spawn those to trays in another tub.

So 4 quarts of spawn to Damian's 50/50 tek, using 3/4ths a brick of coir, and 2 liters of water (approximately slightly over 4 quarts of water)

Let's do it.

Careful man
Are you putting 2 litres of water or 4 quarts?
Litres and quarts are almost the exact same volume. You can almost use them interchangeably!

2 litres will be nowhere close enough. You want more like 4 litres/quarts to a brick

Well fuck. I only put in 2.5 liters of water.


Damnit. What's wrong with me. Ugh.  Now what?

I'm thinking the brick was more like between half and 3/4ths full. Definitely had a quarter missing, I think slightly more than a quarter of it missing. I also gave my grains a quick spritz of water before kneeding them in. Maybe I'll be okay. Should I add a little more water over the top?

You may be fine cause you only used .75 of a brick
If you were going to use 4 quarts of water for a full brick then you would use 3 for .75 of a brick
You put in 2.5 which is like 2 cups of water less than reccomended.
If you really want to you can add 2 cups of water?

Edit, jist realized you didn't mention verm either. You're golden man :thumbup:
