What are the usual causes for low yield? (brf cakes)
    #26540174 - 03/17/20 07:52 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Got a ms syringe of Cambodians, noc'd some brf jars and things were looking good. In the end though, I got only one jumbo mushroom from each cake. And that was it.

Did exact same with GT's. Put them in same sgfc with Cam's. GT's did better, closer to expected yield, but only fruited on the sides and most on just ONE side of the cake.

What should I be checking?

- cakes were dunked 24hrs then rolled after birthing
- sgfc built to spec - 0.25" holes in 2" grid, up off the floor, 3" perlite
- fine misting from high up 3-5x/day, vigorous fanning
  (was previously spraying just the perlite, not the cakes, to keep humidity up)

#1 cause for low yield:
Not making more mushrooms.
just make more... 10 cakes gives you a better yield than 1

If all the cakes fruited on the same side it’s probably where the best conditions were.

Run a bulk grow if you want more, it’s really simple and imo easier than cakes.

lol yeah I’ve seen some really nice cakes but the people had mastered the SGFC and had good cultures.

It’s just so much easier to mix up a shoebox and let it sit in the corner for a few weeks then collect your 3/4-1.5 ounce.

I only ever did one batch of five cakes and this was my best.



Looks cool but lot of time for a couple grams. Although that culture pins really easy if I knew what I was doing I bet it would’ve been 3 times as many shrooms.
