let me know if you get any of this. it doesn't look too different to the stuff I get which is fine, but my eyes are by no means expert. seems like a good price thoug and saves me getting 50kg at a time

Dirt cheap PP5 containers (compared to importing Ziploc PP5s from the US): https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Round-Food-Containers-Plastic-Clear-Storage-Tubs-with-Lids-Deli-Pots-Sauce-Dip/122432800616
I've personally used both the 8 oz (no pour agar a la Pasty) and 32 oz (Muda's bottle tek) variants successfully. They stack into each other and save a lot of space if unused compared to glass jars.

32 Oz versions look like they'd be good for grain spawn rather than glass, just need a hole and some poly in the lid

Head down to shops like b&m, home bargains etc, they sell large storage containers cheap. If its your first attempt id reccomend trying a mini mono that way you do multiple grows and if one goes bad youve got more to fall back on just incase your sterile technique fails better to lose one small box of spawn than lose all of it in one big box. Either way those are the shops to hit up, if you go for a large box it doesnt need to be massively tall the length and width are more important, as most shrooms dont grow massively tall.

I got some from Ikea, but to be honest, I'd get different ones if I did it again. they're solid but not rectangular inside due to built in handles... but yeah, I'd say go 'shoe box' to start with, it's fucking depressing to see 4qts go mouldy before popping out any fruits

Hi,
I have searched the forum but cant find any answers.
Looking for proper fitting jars for PFTek.
Are these suitable?:
https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/250782952
Have seen them mentioned a few times.
Also is this Verm suitable for the initial mix?
https://www.homebase.co.uk/gro-sure-vermiculite-plant-food-10l_p136459
I need to buy local as my first attempt failed and want to get going again. I am not sure if its fine or course verm for the mix or should i just grind the verm?
and lastly - just seen this: https://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-brown-rice-flour-60029177
Looks good - does it matter if its gluten free etc?
If I order online could be middle of next week before it arrives, am eager to get started again and so buying local means I can get started again at the weekend.
I know that ultimately its up to me to get the supplies and experiment/use trial and error but if someone could just have a quick look and point out any obvious errors with the above products that would be a big help.
Any help would be great Thanks

Hey Ohitsmagic - I use those exact same jars, rice flour and vermiculite to good effect. Don't worry about it being gluten free - rice doesn't contain gluten so it's all gluten free. Just a marketing technique by H and B!
Good luck with your grow!

Yeah man ive been on sabbatical. Another uk grower has contacted me and wants to do an outside grow. Its got me interested again. Im trying to renew that ape culture on agar.. If it doesnt work out do u have any spore still? We have some interesting things in the pipe from woodland stealth, to stones to unusual bits from New Zealand im sure we can swap.
Hows it all going anyway?

I have several of these and they're perfect size but I'm still eating jam like 4 months later. I've also used ones like This and This just make sure if you use Tupperware it's pp5

Cool man sounds fun, nah none left not grown for a while. Moved to a smaller house cheaper rent so we can buy a house hopefully next year, so have nowhere to grow and the estate agents inspect every 6 months which i wasnt aware of when i signed the deal. Once i have my own house im gonna do a outdoor lib grow, i had a try at cleaning up them lib spores got a nice plate with anti bac agar but before i could move forward we had to move house so abandoned it still got plenty of the print left.
