PF Tek BRF cakes to bulk mono tub
    #26739318 - 06/12/20 11:04 AM (3 years, 8 months ago)

Just wondering if anyone has had any success using BRF cakes as a spawn for a bulk mono tub using CC as a substrate? If so how much spawn did you use? I've had great success consistently with the PF Tek method and have decided to step it up and go for bulk. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Shrooms? Nah I don't have any of those but are you sure you don't wanna buy some Trich, bro?

Ummm, yeah. There is an entire thread about it.

Most of these are spawning cakes to shoeboxes, but as a wise man once told me, a shoebox is just a small mono tub.

Definitely... brf is pretty common here as most people start out like you and graduate. You belong in the shoebox megathread. It's a great place for a first time brf to bulk spawner to read.

Anyway, you sure can do what you stated. Use BRF to spawn to cococoir. Some people will tell you to spawn at 1:1 to be safe. I am successfully running 1:2 and 1:3 tubs fine so far.

I use minimum 1 pint for a 6qt shoebox. That was a 1:4 ratio box for me. Colonization is slow but steady.

My 1:1 boxes colonized in 2 weeks and started to pin.

Pasteurize the cococoir. I do this by putting it in a pillowcase in a pot of water. Get teh water to 160 then turn the flame down low and leave it for 2-3 hours. Spawn when cooled.

I have recently done some experiments.  I tried a half-pint of BRF spawn to a small shoe box... a million tiny, tiny shrooms not even worth harvesting (and I didn't!).

In the same size shoe box I tried one pint= 1/4 oz dried shrooms.

In both I used verm and coir.

Im thinking of running a 1:2 ratio using 3 pints of BRF and 6 quarts of CC and 2 cups of spent coffee grounds in a 66qt mono tub. fingers crossed!

There's much more mycellium in colonized BRF than whole grain... anyone is free to refute me on that... just my observation.  Trouble is, it takes much longer because you can't shake BRF like you can with whole grain.
