Spawning in a vacuum
    #25954383 - 04/25/19 09:48 AM (5 years, 8 months ago)






(also testing with pp5's)

I use the chamber in the back side of the second photo as my work space as the exhaust duct-end on the right redirects spores before they reach back there.  I had fruit growing out of a shoebox within my first two months after it was sitting back there, but they were blobs; and until I had read about "blobs," I had thought that it was mold so I threw the whole thing out.

Then, I did three other shoeboxes in that chamber and also to the left of the photo.  Things were going well until I decided to mix two more shoeboxes by spreading everything across the board, and the spawn never recovered and I was left with blank substrate.  I had thought that there was not enough grain close enough together because of the rhizo reaching, but of course that was wrong, which is why I had the idea in a previous post that I would forget bulk and casing altogether.  Yes, all wrong.

One success tho, was that the second set of shoeboxes (the one right before the failure) never became contaminated- and they were shoeboxes all by themselves!... not placed in a SGFC!)  I had the exhaust on its highest setting, running all the time.  Let's see how these two jars and six plates do!  I will probably end up with 1/2 - 3/4 success, I predict. 

I learn by doing the dumbest shit I can think of first.

Anyway, someone in another topic called it a vacuum... and that's what it is because every crack and crevice is sealed with cellophane with one small opening, as I am not looking for shear negative pressure.
