Probably a really noob question;

But has anyone ever just buried unbroken up BRF cakes in coir in shoeboxes?

Somewhere in between spawning it to bulk and spawning them as cakes?

Is there any con to doing this?


Yes and it works very well. In my opinion much better than breaking them up. Just lay out a couple inches of coir, pack the cakes in like jars in the case they came in (touching at the edges) and then cover with another inch of coir. Big beautiful flushes.


Thanks everyone for the info!

When you say pack the cakes in like jars, do you mean not to take it out of the jars, and to put them in with the coir?

Is it possible to mix strains and varieties in the same shoebox fruiting them in this way?

agar-agar is seaweed extract.
"Agar (agar agar) is a gelatinous substance that is extracted from seaweed and processed into flakes, powders and sheets. It is commonly used in Asian cuisines and as a flavorless vegan substitute for gelatin."

Agar is seaweed/algae extract and is not the same as gelatin.

If the ingredients say "100% agar" then it is made from seaweed.

Gelatin from cows doesn't taste meaty, it's still very clean and neutral, if it is flavor you are worried about.

Algae is a plant bro. They contain chloroplasts and produce food through photosynthesis.

I dealt with pretty serious contaminants in the past with my Oat grain. I kept one of the plates that I ended up not using. It took a very long time for the plate to pin and for me to see this. It got me thinking, how do I know that my other agar is clean? I have pictures of a ton of plates that I made but they all look clean...?




Just wanted to bump this

It is possible the contamination occured during the transfer to grain or from grain that wasn't fully sterilized as well.

So here’s an update on my situation. Are these the β€œblobs” I hear so much about that can come from PE? Or did I just create something horrible? Took the advice here and put the lid back on them and left them alone (until just now to take photos)













Are these side pins/blobs? And what should I do about them?






Bump, unsure if this is wet bubble or blobs.

I had a couple of mushrooms develop this Knott on top of them. It was just 2-3 of them. Should I be concerned?
