Hello,

I had purchased a shelf and installed some lighting for the shoeboxes.

Wondering how much light do the mushrooms really need - can I stuck shoe boxes on top of each other as example in the photo.



Thanks


Stack away. They’ll be fine.

Is gypsum no longer suggested for cube substrate?  What is a good ratio/amount of water/vermiculite/coco coir for 66quart monotubs?  I'm finding a lot of mixed answers for this.  I plan on doing the substrate in a cooler and letting it all sit in the boiling water in there for 24 hours before I move to tubs.

No gypsum, no verm. Just plain coir.

The spawn/coir ratio is up to you.

Do you know if it's more harm than good to use gypsum and verm as well?  I ask because I have a bunch that I bought in bulk and if I can use it I would like to.

Also, do you know the best amount of water to use per 650g brick of coco coir?

If you have a garden that would likely be a better use for it, but it won't harm cubes. It just does nothing for them.

You can use them it's just not necessary. The amount of water is dependent but I believe most start at 4.5x water to coir and work to field capacity.

Yeah, yeah.

Gypsum doesn't hurt but it has no benefits at all. It's wasted money.

Verm is sometimes used to fix overhydrated coir. But if you get your field capacity right, verm is useless too.

I had several converting from pint to ml.


:lmafo: I had several when I moved to Canada. All my measuring cookware was old and in spoons, cups, and pints. All the recipes up there was in grams and milliliters.

Should I harvest them all now or wait another 24 to 48 hours?

Variety is PE.



I should have harvested them yesterday or the day before. They were mushy and released water when I picked them. Do you think they are still potent?


Those will fuck your shit up sir.

Hi, I am wondering if it is possible to steam sterilize jars at too hot a temprature?

When I steam steralize pf-tek jars, I'm not quite sure how much steam is ideal. I start with a boil then reduce to a simmer as EvilMushroom666's PF-Tek guide says, but I still wonder, can I just boil at maximum heat the entire 2 hour process? Would it hurt/overcook the jars?


I'm reading this:

https://temperatureask.com/what-temperature-is-steam/

And the article suggests steam has a constant temprature, but can increase under pressure (such as a pressure cooker, I'm guessing/estimating).

So, what do you guys think? Thanks.


Second Question:

I tried soaking the vermiculite and getting it completely saturated, then I used a strainer and shook the wet verm to get water droplets out. This resulted in all of my cakes getting 50% bacterial contam. I don't understand why a slightly smaller amount of water equals no contam, but totally soaking (then draining) the verm, results in guaranteed contam (all 4/4 cakes contaminated).

I follow the 2:1:1 ratio, Verm, Water, drain, then BRF. But I wonder why soaking then draining doesnt work.. the amount of water is similar soaking the verm, as to the 2:1:1 ratio.

thanks.
