First SAB and agar work!!
#25018877 - 02/24/18 03:56 PM (6 years, 10 months ago) |

So my neighbors pet raindeer just built his first SAB and knocked up one test jar of 2.5g brf+ 8ml water with one drop from a b+ ms syringe. He has some petri dishes coming and is going to knock up a couple of them with one drop each and then transfer a couple times till he gets a 100% clean dish. Then he's ganna make some LI and knock up a few wbs bags. After that knock up a mono tub with a poo/ coir/ verm mix. He would like to thank everyone on this site for all the info!! I'll be posting updates for him if anyone is interested feel free to follow. He try'd a mono tub before with a modified brf cake he knocked up with a g2g but that whole project was fucked from the get go and really never stood a chance of success. But now he's got all his ducks in a row and hopefully this time will be successful. Wish him luck!!!

He plans on cooking the sub in Turkey bags in a pot of water till the internal temp hits 160 then turning heat down but maintaining the 160 for 2hrs. Add it to the mono tub wait for it to cool down and then ad spawn at 1:2 ratio (at least).

You only need to hold temps at 160 for an hour I believe.. We're all here doing the same shit... No need for that "my neighbors pet" crap

Alright my bad didn't mean to step on anyone's toes just saw some people posting in the third person and thought it was a cheeky way to avoid admitting to a felony lol. Anyway this is my first time doing agar work and just wanted to post the update. I got these premade plates off amazon potato dextrose(next time I'll go with the no pour gladware mini round tek). I think they seem to be working I have a test dish in there with nothing I'll post in a few days when i'm about to transfer!!

Just did my first transfers!! That was harder then I thought you guys make it look easy but I guess practice makes perfect lol!! Also moved some of the left over mycelium to a couple wbs jars I made. I know my chances of success are shorter, since I didn't do multiple transfers but they could still just colonize the jars fine as long as I did everything clean, right? I would really like to get a couple small shoeboxed going asap so I can get some clone material to work with!!

Ya I added a little kelp to the wbs before I jarred and pressure cooked it...I know it's like an urban legend that kelp increases potency but I love what it did for my weed plants and so if I got it laying around it can't hurt right??

I'm not sure such a high ratio is needed.
I've been finding that very high spawn ratios don't really do me any good. When spawning a mono there is an ideal amount of spawn that should go in. If you increase beyond that too much what I've found happens is the extra heat and respiration from the extra mycelium causes more condensation within the tub. It also makes providing even FAE difficult. I end up with drops running down the side and creating pools along the sides of the tub which can lead to mold forming.
I think it's good to pick a normal spawn to sub ratio and stick with that so that you can learn to dial in the monos with that specific amount of mycelium.

I have 3 shoeboxes I've done at 1:2. Takes longer, but that's not the worst problem to have. Check out my TLY shoebox thread if you wanna see em. Just dubtubbed em today hoping that it will promote some pinning as I was having aerial myc growth.

So here's my up date: I got 2 sheoboxes one at 13 days one at 12. They both got super dry bc I was trying to keep them warm by having a space heater in the area and it caused them to dry out really bad. Like the entire top turned blue. I really thought I was good because the space heater was above and pointing away from them but I didn't check on them the first week. I sprayed the crap out of them and have been keeping the surface beaded as best I can. The temp is really low like 60-70 but it doesn't drop lower then 6o. I got my first few pins today in my first box woot woot!! Waiting for a few more pins then plan on dubbing them to fruit!!
I started 2 other shoboes 4 days ago and thier doing great even though it's cold up there.


Will post more pics once my pins fill out!!!

So here's my progress 2 shoeboxes I put in sweater boxes to encourage side pins due to fucking up the surface conditions and only a side and bottom pins. Other 2 boxes are doing much better with tons of pins starting on top and only a few side pins. Harvested one corner cluster that started dropping spores 20g wet. Have them drying now hoping to harvest much of the rest tomorrow and saturday!

Damn man. That space heater totally sabotaged your grow. It's cold where I live and I've been dealing with less than ideal temperatures also. Moisture is important. Those other two boxes should start to pop soon. Just let them do their thing.

In the first picture your shrooms are literally drying on the substrate. Get your misting on.
Last 2 pictures look ok I guess. Second picture also looks dry.

I've been trying to avoid directly misting the fruits is this an unnecessary procaution and I should just go nuts with misting? I've also herd of people just bottom watering is this a better practice then misting wonce you have pins and fruits?

You need to mist if your substrate is drying out.
It's fine to mist fruits if they are getting good fresh air.
That substrate on the left could use a good initial soaking but after that just keep them moist while allowing time between mistings for some evaporation to occur.

The picture with your finger in frame just looks like normal side pins to me.
I think that substrate is contaminated though which could account for increased blobbiness

I'm going to clone something from the second flush if I can get something not blobby that would be awsome. Thus concludes my first successful grow log. Going to fuck around with everything I've learned so far and probly make another grow log wonce I have a better place to grow where I can be more percise. Thanks for all the help guys!!
