Ahhh right. Should've been clearer but you answered my question I think. Just thinking, all thing being the same, spawn ratio and fruiting conditions, the colonization might be quicker in a smaller volume. But it's the ratio that matters. What ratio do you like in shoeboxes?



I like 1:1 for everything, faster colonization and less resources tied up in each box

The only time I would use more than a one-to-one ratio would be if my climate was extremely dry and I needed the extra bulk mix to retain moisture

How many quarts do you use per shoebox? I'm currently running approx 1:1 for 2 quarts in the shoebox (which are only like 2/3 filled, so it's not actually 4qt of grains/sub), and this seems like a solid setup.

I remember my big monotub took about 18 days from when I first spawned to pulling my first fruits. About how long do you find it takes shoeboxes to colonize?

Mine are usually about 15-20. 1:2 takes about 20 1:1 takes about 15 for me.

Surface colonization in ~4 days, full colonization in  ~6... I typically see pins on day 11-13, and harvest a week give or take later

1:1 clean spawn and field capacity coir only

AA+ clone, really fluffy mycelium, it's got some bacteria but it should be pretty easy to clean up.

GT clone ready to drop on oats and a T2 APE after 4 days. Love how quick APE grows out on agar.

Learned an important lesson in temp differences when rinsing off a boiled-over media bottle...


Also, I got one of those temp gauges because they were totally cheap! I learned I was pouring agar around 145f... I was nervous it was going to solidify on me at 125f... Poured almost at 120f and I thought it might glop up on me.

I just want to be apart of this thread too :smile:

Cambodian on T3. I already took some transfers off of it so it's not as pretty as it once was. I still think its cool for a T3 tho! It looks like it has hands that are waving at me :lol:




Ape pin :dancer: I put some grains to agar forever ago and found this growing :thumbup: The pasty plate under it has a pin from this plate that I transferred before it grew too big.

How old are they? Possibly dry? Are they poured thin?
