I used CVG roughly 5qt w/ 5 qt boiling water, left overnight and mixed with 4 bags of spawn. It squished pretty good before I mixed everything up

Whats the "trasher" lineage? Is it just a melmak variety which in turn is just a PE variety? with similar size, shape and grow speed?



Apparently it's like melmac, but with longer stipes, I guess. 

I think it's more of an isolation of a phenotype rather than a cross, in this case.

I haven't grown or eaten melmac, so I don't know what the potency is exactly, but it should be about the same for this "trasher" lineage.

for the price of 5 uncle butt's rice you could have gotten 3.5+ lbs of brown rice flour. also don't use multispore syringes learn to agar

The rice bags. Most of us won't refer to ub as grain spawn cuz it's terrible. We get so many people that come here and ask us to try and help with this tek but it's so bad we generally tell people to start over with pftek. It's tried and true and very effective if you don't want to get into agar. With a 12 pack of jars you can grow 50-80 grams of dried mushrooms from one syringe. Or if you get into agar and making your own grain jars you can grow endless amounts of mushrooms.

I believe the experts have spoken. Chuck and repeat following the guidance of the people here. You're in the right place. The first mistake was not joining here sooner and that was mine as well.

Well ya got to start somewhere. I found a sterilized grain supply near me that I intend to use for my next attempt. But to get into this as a hobby the ubtek is rather attractive.

Edit:
I’d love to get into agar and jars but it’s a non insignificant investment of equipment and space.
I haven’t explored this forum much, is there an equipment list and more detailed explanation of jarstek?

UB Tek is attractive because it seems so simple. But the contamination risks are too high to make it worthwhile.

PF Tek is also quite simple and much lower risk. Also arguably more fun because you get more hands on with all the prep.

If you're going to be purchasing sterilised grain, please do not fall into another simplicity trap and shoot a spore syringe into it. Get familiar with agar work and enjoy the ride.

The most expensive part of this hobby is your TIME. There is nothing worse that waiting 2 months and having everything mold. I know it has happened to me and most of the others at some point.

There are only 2 viable routes to go if you don't want to waste more time than you need.

The first, as others have said, is PF TEK

The second, and IMO the best, is learn agar and grow out clean agar plates and put to grain.

Taking the extra time in the beginning will save you LOADS of time and headaches in the long run

Wait so even with a still air tent w/ pre sterilized environment -> sterilizing chamber for pass through you can’t inculcate grain bags via a RTV port?

This gets that first gen off the spore syringe then you clone  on agar per best genetics spotted. This is the simplistic model I had to get going.

Mushrooms are not grown in a sterile environment. shooting spores into grain is a crapshoot at best. it's the spores that are dirty. spores go to agar then get cleaned up before ever going to grain. PF Tek is designed to have spores directly inoculated

So I haven’t been using spore syringes but liquid culture which is the result of agar correct?

As someone who is also learning to work with Agar soon can you elaborate on what you mean when you say they get "cleaned up" on Agar?
