cube question
    #26563403 - 03/28/20 02:45 PM (3 years, 9 months ago)

Hey guys,

Hope you are all good - quick question, got some cube grain jars which are going well. Thinking about doing a coir, vermiculite, manure mix substrate. What is the best way to proceed - thinking to pasteurize with cold lime tek, then would is best from here - into a bucket - would i want holes in the bucket or let them grow on the top. Or, am I better going into a large plastic storage container? Seen various different teks and read up on things but a little advice would go a long way.

Much appreciated.

If you're a beginner I wouldn't reccomend using manure. You can
just use coir/verm. Clear plastic storage tote containers is the way
Most everyone does things. And they can be modified or unmodified
monotubs whichever you prefer. I prefer modified. Check out the Everything
you need to know link is my other recommendation too.

You can make a monotub out of a bucket or a tote, however the base surface area to height ratio is much better on a tote for our application.

Also, I suggest you skip any substrate that can contaminate on its own such as poo or straw for your first grows, as spawning to coir verm will fail or succeed based on just the quality of your spawn assuming you can get your fruiting conditions reasonable (which is pretty damn well mapped out in many posts.)  Some people swear potency and or yield gains off poo, though I think the general consensus here is that it isn't a huge of a factor.  The roll of the dice on your genetics will play a much larger factor.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...
