Well I can't get it for a dollar. Lol I get 3 bricks for 7, and a bag of bk is 6.50 here.

Idk I'll have to do a side by side and see for myself. Coir colonized well if the water content is right.

Im not trying to say bk is better than coir, I havent been around long enough to make claims like that. Im a huge fan of the freedom it gives, And screwing around adding coir or verm to it might be something better who knows? Im still floored it hasnt been used more.

I definitely agree, it works well. I would just prefer to use it outside. Or with pans if anyone wants to donate a pan print to me :wink: I have rw swabs and ape prints coming to the marketplace soon.

I really want BK to be faster but the CVG looks about ready to pin. Side view is considerably closer race for colonization though. I still say it could be low moisture content on the BK out of my bag though. I have no idea how to check field capacity on manure. Notice the rhizo on the BK in comparison to CVG.

I bet ya the one that looks less colonized pins better. I'm guessing. I know when my aub starts getting to white. Or matted. They still fruit just not so prolific

Sorry to say it but I think my BK box is done. Kinda stalled out and there's a small patch of trich in the bottom right corner.



Still puzzled why it was so rhizomorphic and maybe aerial? I started introducing more FAE a couple days ago thinking the BK could be producing more C02 and choking it out. Anyway, gonna isolate it from my grow area. CVG box is fully colonized and loaded with knots.

I really want it to work, I'm hopeful.

All the LC's are in opaque PP5 quart jars with condensation so it's hard to see but I think I'm seeing subtle mycelium growth on the Pan Cyan.

Thought I'd resurrect the old thread. So I got this 30qt. 6 hole mono going with bk. and it's killing me. Ive never had one side pin like this, the surface conditions haven't been perfect, but not bad, and it has a decent surface pinset coming in. I almost think it could be stress fruiting, time will tell. Should have some more updates soon.

Well, so far I'm failing at using modded tubs. Here's my sad 30qt. It needed more fae like two days ago, lol.

I got two more 40qt tubs, I cased one to see if that would help with better surface moisture. Struggling to keep the fae up, and the surface from drying. Can't wait till spring!

It was, then it pinned all over the sides so I restricted the fae, for a couple days, and that fucked it all up. I went from one extreme to another,lol.

That's the way it goes ain't it? Trips me out how you can get away with unmodified tubs, but have insufficient FAE in a traditional mono... air current obstructed by the holes in certain configuration perhaps? Idk, very odd

I was using micropore tape on the bottom holes, that might have had something to do with it. I swear you could see it kind of bubble out. BK has a tendency to dry out on the surface, It alone can't keep those nice natural beads of moisture. I havent been able to do an unmodified since the winter set in. Thats why I switched to a traditional mono. My coir mono tubs are doing well, the bk is being stubborn though.
