Opinions on 1 or 2 shoeboxes!
    #27029020 - 11/08/20 05:58 PM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Hi folks.
I’ve officially decided to try some shoebox tek.
However, I am debating between doing one 6 quart container, with .75 quarts of spawn and 1.125 quarts of substrate, or two 6 quart containers.
For the two containers, one container would have .25 quarts of spawn and .75 quarts of substrate (1:3), and the other .5 quarts of spawn and .75 quarts of substrate (1:1.5).
The reason I am debating between doing 1 and 2 shoeboxes is because I am concerned .25 quarts of spawn would be too little for one shoebox.
I am doing this with leftover cakes that are almost done colonizing and not going in my SGFC. So I only have 3 half pints. This is why I’m specifically asking these amounts.!
I’m looking forward to hearing some opinions!
Cheers!

Where if you're alone, you know, you either come through it or you die, but in any case you avoid the fuss.'"

I think either would be fine but I don't know which would be best. I often work with small amounts of grain spawn and have spawned single half pint jars to several handfuls of coir (I'm lazy and eyeball it for small amounts) in a plastic lunchbox. You want enough depth that it isn't too shallow for the tub.

This teeny harvest was just a spoonful of grain spawned to coir in a playdoh box
