Here's the latest and greatest

Shoeboxes are great, you can even put em in your SAB and take swabs like that

Looks like my first 2 shoebox grows should be coming up sooner than I thought. I think all of my 8 cakes will be colonized in the next 5 days or so. At first I was so thinking I had to wait 10 days for them to consolidate, but then I remembered that consolidation is counterproductive when spawning to bulk! This makes me even more excited! Going to dub em'.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by "consolidating is counterproductive when spawning to bulk"?
So in other words, fruiting conditions immediately after spawning to bulk?

I believe in this context the dude is using PF cakes as spawn as opposed to grain. When cakes are fruited as cakes they're left alone for a week or so to consolidate before being put in the SGFC. Crumbled cakes are crumbled at fully colonisation, no week of waiting is needed.

One of the 4qt APE shoeboxes that I spawned on the 21st of August. 3 cups wheat spawn 2 qt coir 1 cup verm
 These grew a lot faster than my first go with APE. No more than a flush behind the PFC tub that I spawned the same day
The other shoebox has a few fruits as well but nothing worth documenting

Honestly I think those swabs I sent were garbage. After reading how hamloaf makes his swabs it would be a miracle if you got anything but bacteria from mine. I'll see if I can get you a new one from this grow now that I know what I'm doing a little better
Also fuck I'm so damn tired from prepping grains. Prepped about 8 dozen jars in 2 weeks. Got my grain prep time down to just under an hour now tho

I think I'll harvest these tonight. This was my late cased tub. I did a side by side with one that I cased at spawn. The tub I cased at spawn fruited first but it was 3 harvests. I like this better
