Well last time I left them, they got real skinny and caps way smaller. Light has definitely had its impact ime. Leaning towards dim light this time.

Then just fillet it up in slices to dehydrate?





I like to try to pick them as whole clusters then break them up from the base to get dehydratable clusters, I find if you separate it from the base its easier to leave them in smaller clusters rather then ending up with a pile of shrapnel

I have never dealt with these but they are basically 2 large blobs and don't seem they will fall apart but what do I know. What is a good way to separate them from the sub?

Seems like the sub here is one and done, not sure how it wold survive getting these things free of it.

If you cant twist em out just run a knife under em flat against the sub, you can usually get 99% of it in one piece if you do it right

Decent growth for 2 days after spawning.  Pass the smell test?

I want to grow Lions mane and cant find any straight answer to this:
Can i transfer my fully colonized (rye) spawn from a bag to a bag with pasteurized wood pellets in open air? Do i need a flowhood for this or is it just like cube-spawn to coir.

I use a still air box but I think if you are using a good amount of grain it should colonize fast enough to not get contamination.

Hey all, this is my first time and I'm following PF tek growing cubes, have a question regarding temp:

It's usually cold and it's not uncommon for my room to get around or below 10c. I'm waiting for colonization and just leave the jars on a table in a room I'm usually in, with a split-system aircon on heat mode going most of the day. I have a cheap hygrometer that says the temp is around 19c with the heating.

Is this alright to do, to keep the room warm? The temps usually dip below 11c / 52f ish at night. Would it slow down or mess with the mycelium if I have the heating off for hours at a time?

I got an order of SFDs in today. Prep'd some grain tonight. Going to PC some jars tomorrow. My question relates to lid setup

I'm going to run eight jars total (w/ full size 90mm SFD under the lid)

2 unmodified

4 with one 1/4" hole

2 ????

I have some old LC jar lids (two holes, one for SHIP, one for filter sticker) that I was considering using for the last two. Can anyone advocate in favor of or against running the two hole setup? I'm wondering if the ~10-15 plastic modified lids I have on hand will be useable with full sized SFDs

10c is definitely cold enough to start significantly slowing things down imo. i don't think it should kill anything or harm it to have temp swings like that, i mean that kind of swing isn't unheard of out in nature & cubes are pretty damn hardy. but you'll see faster growth over all by keeping the heat up. patience is a virtue tho

good on ya for heating the room & not using a heat mat to heat the sub directly :thumbup:

Do i need to sterilize used spore syringes in a pc in order to reuse them or is it sufficient to draw and squirt boiling water multiple times while preparing them?

If the former - can i steam sterilize them in a regular pot as well?

Here's a pic of a buried PF cake.

Is this mold or Cube myc?



The cake was moldy to begin with. I split it in half horizontally and buried each part in a separate jar.

Here's a pic of the cake before burying it.
