For the record I do live right on the water, and the boxes are not the purple clasped ones you see in the teks. Since wiping it up surface conditions have been spot on. Im eternally in your debt for pointing out what I should have seen myself.

I also don't have the OG shoeboxes, I put some paperclips so they don't get squished shut by the box on top. I mostly wipe the cover so I can see what's going on without opening it too much.

Right, yeah that makes sense. I got mine stacked in 2x2 pairs in another tub, obviously the top ones have a lot more condensation that the bottom ones. Coir is just as black as when I spawned it 5 days ago.

I'm probably just overthinking this, is just that without a full myc cover on the top it's a bit difficult to judge what's going on.


Yeah I wouldn't stress dude. As long as it's not dripping all over and you spawned at field capacity, don't worry about it is what it boils down to. :thumbup:

Field capacity is pretty important. I spawned 5 tubs over FC when I used the standard cvg recipe of 1 brick coir, 2 qts verm, 4.25 qts water. Spawned a bunch before I checked FC by hand and discovered it was extremely wet. They all went bad despite the jars being perfectly clean. Huge waste of time and resources.

Nah I've never used more than 1:5 coir to water, which is about 3-3.5l, you are way above that with 4.25q water unless your bricks are much more than the standard 600-650g

Question: Generally speaking if I'm aiming for larger fruits and harvests, do I want a higher sub to spawn ratio? Or would a higher spawn to sub ratio provide more nutrients/growth?

I'm currently testing out some 4:1 boxes after doing many at 2.5:1. But I'm wondering if 1:1 in a larger volume would simply be better?

If I'm using wide mouth jars in PC and will use LC or SSLC what will be the best lid setup? I saw these and do I tighten lid when PC and after inoculation? I'm not making LC with these, these are for the quart grain jars.

Do I need the gasket?

Syringe filters are for syringes, not jar lids. They do not provide enough GE for grain colonization.

SHIPs have their place, but I have a few lids with them and I never use the injection port. It’s just easier to open the jar and squirt in some LC.

I would get some plastic lids, and some SFDs. You don’t need anything special to use LC.

Syringe filters are great in lids if you are using a SHIP on a LC jar and you need to prevent a vacuum when aspirating the syringe. That is all I would use them for in this hobby.

+1 for a nice SFD and no holes in the lid.

Not sure what a sfd is and what should I do after I pour my LC into my widemouth jar, just tighten it, how will it get GE?

Are you talking about those little white stickers that let air through like micropore tape cause I already ordered the lids?

Thanks

If you aren't clear on what a SFD is I would not recommend making LC.

I don’t give my LC gas exchange. I don’t think you need it.

An SFD is a synthetic filter disk. Kinda the gold standard on gas exchange.

I really really recommend getting some media bottles for LC. They’re not cheap, but you can use them unmodded pretty much hassle free.

You really need to learn agar before venturing into LC. I learned the hard way. I honestly like agar slurry much more than LC. I inoculated some BRF cakes with slurry and had good growth in @ 2-3 days. Thell be colonized in a week.

LC, LI, and SSLC are all sort of sophomore activities in terms of mush cult. Just make sure you get your sterile technique solid and they’re great tools.

Im actually of the opinion you should full on go for it. Fail. Worst thing that can happen is you don’t grow mushrooms. Best case scenario you learn what not to do and accidentally grow some mushrooms along the way.

I'm not, post above said I'm making grain spawn and pouring LC, just wish to know what lid modifications to use in PC and after pour so that steam can enter in PC and GE can happen when colonizing. Does that make sense?

Note: I've been using bags, never did jars, have LC and agar down pretty good

Plastic one piece lids, drill 1/4” hole, adhere SFD with red RTV. Do it now before you struggle with small contam issues for 10 months.

Aw man that sounds rough with contam for that long, so would you please link me to appropriate SFD to use and I guess I'll pop the .22um filter out and make it a 1/4" hole and just leave the injection rubber thing
