Nope. I suggest doing some rereading. Not tryna offend but you're lacking some basic need to knows. Seems like you've already picked the tek you wanna go with, PFtek/BRF to Bulk. So find a write up you like (I like BODs "Easy AF" lineup personally) and stick to it word for word. Dont try to make any adjustments til you have a couple grows under your belt and understand the basics. Reading and rereading is your best friend at this stage. Good luck welcome to shroomery

Welp there's your first mistake. YouTube, reddit and Facebook have nothing but terrible information. Broke Boi and Uncle Ben's are an absoutle waste of time. PFtek is simple and very easy to hide in a closet. So do it right or do it twice. This isnt the hobby to cut corners in.

We use strait coco coir hydrated to field capacity. Some use a mix of coir and verm. Some use corn cob. Strait coir is the shit. Must be to field capacity.

I've had good experiences with Broke Boi Tek. Low contam rate, good yields, easy as fuck if you know what you're doing. Just pulled over 250 wet grams 1st flush from one quart of spawn and one quart of just coir. Not a canopy pin set but no complaints for less than $10 in materials. I assume the reason it gets a bad reputation is people going Spore-to-Grain and not actually following the tek or sterile procedure. It's good for being cheap but it's NOT for the inexperienced.
I will never ever do a UBTek, that shit is some crackhouse fuckery just like the freaks casing their grows with Orbeez
You are 100% correct though, OP should really just stick with the PF Tek. It took over 20 years to develop and has been giving growers some of the best growing experiences, no reason to mess with tradition. (I recall that BRF cakes end up being the most efficient method by weight, with cakes putting out more weight per oz than bulk. That could just be a popular rumor though)

I tried starting with Broke Boi tek and I got bacteria and sour rot every time, maybe the more experienced have a better time with whole brown rice but it's not for me.
