Hey guys, what do you think is the best ways to clean shoeboxes that were heavily contaminated with trich.

I just washed them outside with a hose to the bulk of things off the shoeboxes. Then I washed them with a brush/soap/hot water. I’m about to do a bleach soak in the sink. Do you guys think that will be enough or have other recommendations?



Warm soapy water is fine.



Ok I didn’t do the bleach soak yet so I’ll save the bleach. The warm soapy water seemed to take everything off. Would you say in any situation bleach would be needed or is it just overkill?

I would clean them with a bleach solution only if they’ve had contaminated substrate in them previously. Other than That soap and water.

I think bleach is overkill, but I've been known to use it as well for peace of mind with contam. I do think warm soapy water is enough even if the substrate was heavily contaminated though, just based on what I've read on here.

Yeah iirc soap actually breaks down cell membranes, our hands just have enough of a dead skin layer to protect our own cells. So I have no paranoia really using hot water and dishsoap, since whatever microscopic shit in there is getting mangled and destroyed anyways

Temps inside the box are 70.9-72.2 degrees.  The box has vent holes cut for FAE, with micropore over the holes.  Humidity inside box is very high.  The lights are about 6 watts and don’t put out much heat.  Am I doomed to fail a with this idea?

I wouldn’t say you’re doomed to fail. Cubes are pretty tolerant of abuse. I just voiced my concerns given the info you provided and my experience. I’ve never grown with a tub in a storage locker before. If you have a means for FAE and are managing your temps you may have a fine result. Keep us posted.

Hey there. New grower here. So my tub has got some very weird looking myc that appears to be balling up. They seem a little large.

The fuzziness in some parts of the pics are just my camera, I can assure you they appear a little smoother in person. (Sry for bad cam btw)




Anyone have any ideas about what this is/means?

I've noticed that different cultures and varieties, the myc on the surface can appear different. This looks like a pretty standard colonization of a substrate in my opinion.

Nothing to worry about.

Oh boy, thanks a million man. Its a huge relief to hear that my tub might just be alright. I was starting to get nervous and today marks 2 weeks into bulk colonization and then those started developing and it just freaked me.

TL;DR:
Can i spawn a single PF cake to bulk?

My last batch of PF tek jars wasn't that successful and only 2 out of 10 jars germinated.

I am thinking about how to fruit these 2 cakes.

My water tub is huge, i can easily fit 10 cakes in it so i want to try something different.

I thought of spawning each cake to bulk in some kind of a nano shoebox.

Does that make sense?

You can try a small gladd food container, eyeball a 1:1 or 1:2 ratio and treat it like a mini shoe box. I have a few BRF cakes I might try that with. Could be a fun little experiment. The pics will be cool with mushrooms bigger than the container growing out of it

Yes. I have a 2.5l box I got from Walmart. If you look at the Brf to bulk tek, it is the exact same one he has in the OP.

It works great. I spawn it like I would a shoebox and just leave the lid unlatched. Sometimes I'll increase the FAE by flipping the lid and turning it a bit.

Results wise, not very impressive. I'd say you would get a similar result just doing the cake in a water tub, but it is fun for sure.

Here is a picture from that thread

Hi! New grower, here. I’ve noticed the mycelium getting yellow and even brown in some spots, the side especially concerns me. It’s PE in an unmodded shoe box with its lid off in a modded monotub. Been fanning & misting for 5ish days, the lid was on it prior to that and the mycelium used to be completely white. Are these just metabolites or is it contam? If metabolites is it ok, or is there too much or too little FAE or moisture?

Your misting and fanning is causing your mycelium to matte together. And the changing conditions arent helping. Stop the fanning and mist only if surface conditions require it (look in my siggy for what it should look like)

Its also likely your spawn was bacterial
