First TEK kit and advice
    #26990783 - 10/17/20 10:39 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

Hi everyone!

So I have been on many hunts without success and tend to keep finding Galeria (and gyms) although it hasn’t deterred me from hunting 😂 I love the hunt although I thought I should start growing in between hunts and I’m sure the kit would provide before I find anything 😂🤣😂
So I have decided to order a PF TEK kit (Half Pint Starter Pack, 12HP Jars, 500 BRF 4L Vermiculite, 2 x Syringes) and have some spore prints cubes. When should I start to create the mycelium before adding spores?

Many thanks!

If you have a spore print, assuming not a spore syringe, you'll need to make one. You'll need to make your brf cakes, following the tek. Once your cakes have been processed, you'll have to inoculate them, following the tek, with the syringe you created from the print. Look into how to make a spore syringe.

Depending on how old spore prints are, you may need to allow spores time to hydrate within the syringe before using for inoculation.

Ok right. It won’t hurt to leave them for a few day...
Is it really necessary to sterilise in a pressure cooker?

PF tek cakes can be steam sterilized in a normal pot.

Gday everyone!
So it has been a full week after introducing spores into substrate. Looks to me that there is currently no contamination although it seems to be growing a little too slow due to current temperatures as I am just keeping it at room temp in a drawer. I will wait for it to fully colonise although I’m wondering if time plays a big part in the end I’m regards to yield size or if it will work at all.
Appreciate all advice 👌
