What to do with spawn when on leave?
    #26105451 - 07/13/19 05:34 AM (5 years, 6 months ago)

I have prepared some nice grain spawn, 10 jars, which are half colonized.
Now I know, that I will be gone for 2 weeks in 3 weeks from now. I would estimat, if I spawn to bulk within the next week, that the harvest would not happen before I am gone for 2 weeks.

What do you do in such cases? Would it be feasible to place the grain spawn in the fridge now until I am back in 5 weeks? Any other ideas?

I would let colonize before the fridge. Fridge just before you go. 
Now also you could wait a week for full colonization, prep about 20 more jars and g2g. Then it will all be still colonizing while you're gone. Hopefully, all ready to spawn when you get back home.

A whole lot depends on your temp and other environmentals. So just try and feel it out brother.

You could throw them in the fridge. That would slow your myc growth down.

I think better option would be go ahead and spawn right before you leave for the 2 weeks. Let those jars sit out until your ready to leave and I bet they will be nice and fully colonized.

By the time you get home your sub would be colonized and you can go from there.

Good luck and enjoy you vacation.

I agree with the previous comments. Best options are to G2g them, or to let them sit until you about to leave and then spawn right before leaving. You may even come back to a flush ready if your lucky.

Ok, thanks guys. Good advice. Maybe I will do both, spawn right before I leave and also G2G one half.
