Should I use my last 3 BRF half pints for shoebox tek?

Hi all... I’m debating on using my last 3 BRF half pints (which are currently 3/4 covered) for a shoebox tek. I’ve got 2 fully colonized about to go in a 20 QT SGFC and if I don’t do the shoebox the other cakes will go there, but I wanted your opinions on a newbie doing a shoebox tek when he was originally only planning PF tek. I’m curious to hear what everyone has to say! Cheers!

Shoe box to get ready to move to tubs. You can have a lot of fun with spawning brf to bulk as you see here.

That’s a great thread! And yeah, I like the idea of a warm up before tubs. Thank you! Cheers!

I think spawning brf cakes to shoeboxes is less work than sending to a sgfc. I do also seem to get better flushes from a shoebox, but I don't think the difference is huge.
The only work a shoebox adds is the coir prep which is super easy, I follow this tek.. https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/26043706
But then once they're in a shoebox, you hardly have to do anything. Maybe mist them a few times before the first flush. but some people don't mist at all. Other than that, just watch them grow.

Do either. Nothing in this hobby is so hard that you need practice with different methods.

That’s a great tek! I think that’s what I’ll follow. I like the idea of less work than a SGFC. Cheers!
