Enough Spawn?
    #26911910 - 09/01/20 12:55 PM (3 years, 4 months ago)

So I did a small batch of 8 1/2 pint PE BRF jars almost a little over a month ago.

2 jars failed so I'm now 1 pint short of 1 quart.

I planned on spawning them to a mini-mono coir/verm like I've been practicing with.

Should I have enough spawn for a mini mono?

What's your planned spawn/substrate ratio?

I was thinking 12 cups substrate to the 1 pint that 3 pints that I have would suffice. but that's an uneducated guess so what are your thoughts?

You truly believe a 20quart mini-mono couldn't be achieved through 3 pints of spawn..?

It might. You'd just have a really high sub to spawn ratio. Honestly no idea if it would work :shrug:

I know I use 1 mycoquart to a 6 quart shoebox. Normally around 1.5:1-2:1 sub to spawn ratio. Pretty easy to pull a dried oz+ first flush from one

Always getting confused with that non-european measurements :crazy:
You have 6 half-pints, i thought that's more than a quart?
Should be enough for 1:3 ratio, i wouldn't go higher for colonization time.
But i guess you barely get 3" of heigth.
For shoeboxes i use 2qt spawn to 4qt sub or even 1:1 ratio.

I got away with 7 half pint jars in a 20qt but have yet to see the results it's just pinning and looks excellent so far.

Just hoping 1 less jar will do similar.

You can use pretty much whatever ratio you like. Less spawn means slower colonization and lower yields though.
