How would you steam sterilize a paper cup? What kind of lids would you use?

No, i don't think that's possible.

I would put the ingredients in a glass bowl with tinfoil on top of it in my pressure cooker and sterilize. I would use a sterilize spoon to cut it over tinfoil the top.and use a plastic lid over tin foil was thinking about growing straight in cup why I am asking

Thanks for the coir hydration tips guys, that was just what I needed to know.

As to American PCs... I have a few of them. My Presto has a rocker. My Instant Pot uses some kind of captive weight. My T-fal pressure canner and my Fagor pressure cooker both use dials. So, methods are all over the place.

One of my shoeboxes clearly smells like fresh earth and mushrooms, my other tub has barely any scent at all. Both have healthy looking pins. Should I be worried about lack of smell?

Smell really only means anything when it smells bad. Even bad jars can smell great :shrug:

Were you smelling one with the left nostril and the other with the right one?

Thanks! I’ll keep that in mind. Everything else is looking great, I think I’m good to go

No, used both concurrently. Awaiting for my third nostril to open, should be shortly after the third eye

Bucket tek'd 2 bricks coir, 4 qts verm, 8.5 qts water. Forgot to check field capacity until I had already spawned 3 jars. Was a bit wet. I compressed the substrate and top layer. Theres no poolong and it SEEMS to be colonizing well, but...

Whats going to happen to me???

Your going to grow some shrooms.

My bricks of coir rarely weigh 650gs. Usually somewhere around 550-575. So I add to it to bring the fry weight up to 650. Add two quarts of fine grade verm and 4.5qt boiling water. This has worked pretty well for me. I’ve only had to adjust maybe twice for it being over field capacity but I think I was drunk when making it and actually put 5.5 qt water in it.

Since we were talking about coir, is there a rule of thumb for how much dry coir (by weight) plus how much water (any units) will turn into how much properly hydrated coir (by volume)?

It seems like there ought to be a formula to get you into the right ballpark, though I guess the values would vary by coir brand.

I got these dry bricks here and I have no idea how big they are going to get when I add water! I don't want to make grossly too much or too little once I have grain jars ready.

There's probably a simple answer here, I think it's the last missing piece in my mental model of the process.



I weigh the brick gm then x 5 = ml of water. Then add verm and screw up the whole equation. P9 has a formula that includes verm somewhere.

For those that do no prep for WBS, do you shake the jars while they’re still hot or do you just let it cool down in the PC and deal with clumping? I know the mycelium won’t care but it’s annoying for the shake.



I let them cool down to a reasonable temperature ie: cool enough to handle with a dish towel and give them a shake to break up the clumps and redistribute the wet grains so they all are at about the same moisture level

I actually shake mine a few times. Once when cool enough to handle, then maybe a shake the next two days. Just to redistribute everything and check on them.

A quick popcorn question [Re: Nichrome] * 3
    #28323558 -

My first post so I have no earthly idea what I'm doing.:confused:

ANYHOO, I want to know when preparing (soaking) popcorn, how much is it going to swell (if any) after 24 hrs? I want to use up some popcorn and experiment with it but don't know how much it's going to make.

Bear with me I'm new, I don't even know how to have an avatar :laugh:
