Looks good.:thumbup:I'll be watching those.Thanks to the Shroomery for the info.Not my tek,but it is my preferred method.
Here are a couple of my small tubs with the South American variety spawned on 2/25 put into fruiting 3/11.





:awethumb:

So your modifying your tubs? No liner? I was reading that you don't have to modify the tub you can just flip the lid upside down to create more Fae?

I have my mono tubs modified.The shoeboxes I don't.My last few goes I've played around with liners and top layers.This round I'm not doing either.Liners can be a hassle for me to work with,I'm just gonna keep working on the surface conditions and try to go without.The top layer I've been doing was to help my tubs from drying during the winter.Gonna try to go without this round.I like playing around and experimenting with different setups.

So I mixed more coir...just weighed about 1300 g. Then added just enough water to get it to FC....it was still a little damp...added a little more coir until it was perfect FC...

Here's my question....

  Being that my Coco is hydrated already I didn't have to add much water thus not really bringing it up in temperature very much... is it safe to use this Coco even though it hasn't been semi pasteurized?:shrug:

Fuck it ....gonna put a bunch of boiling water on it and hand strain it tomorrow... further reading shows a chance of contaminants without doing the semi pasteurization.

  If anyone has any suggestions about how to pasteurized this stuff when it's semi hydrated because to add enough water to get it hot enough makes it into soup and I have to strain it by hand and then probably mix a little bit of vermiculite at the end....should I just nuke it be for I put it in cooler?:shrug:

  I feel like this is a good quality cocoa with no additives whereas I heard some of the bricks have salt in them and such.

Place container of coir stuff into heating source. Boiling water? Then place boiled water and container into a insulated container?

I usually try to level my sub out at spawn,but that tub you have will get plenty of GE.If your cakes were good,it won't contam before a flush.

Its "mostly" level. Not perfect tho.

The cakes were questionable. The Brf was compressed and they produced A LOT of piss.
The point i thought they were contammed.
But its colonizing healthily enough.

I have a little over 20 cakes going right now and most of them just have a tiny bit of uncolonized brf visible.

Once the visible brf is colonized is it ok to spawn or should i allow a couple days just incase the middle isnt colonized? Most of my jars look like the one below.

It looks to me that you have 2 inoculation points on your jar lid, if this is the case then due to the fact that mycelium expands in equal and all directions from the center at the same rate then the center of your cake will be colonized long before the internal jar circumference is.

From memory and without a calculator or effort needed, I think you need to have 6 or 7 inoculation points evenly spaced around the outside perimeter of the jar in order to have the circumference colonize before the middle does.

I assume this is why 4 inoculation points are used in the PF tek as it ensures the center is fully colonized when the outside is.

It's a bit of simple math really.

Colonization time of a week+ is to allow the mycelium time to digest the food source and better prepare itself for fruiting. If you're spawning to bulk, you want to avoid colonization time in order to maximize vigor within the mycelium.

Yea theres 4 inoculation points it just looks like 2 in that picture.

Thanks for that info that helped make things a lot more clear. Ill be sure to spawn them as soon as i cant visibly see any uncolonized brf.

I cant get my PE to colonize a damn thing.

Looks like I have a burma that has some form of cobweb looking material. Weird.
