Thanks guys.
I edited it again. I actually shortened the paragraph about spawn ratios and included the tek i just wrote on how I spawn my beefy ass tubs. Do trip out.

1:4 is pretty surprising as a nooby who's been reading a lot about 1:1 or 1:2 to decrease colonization time to try and beat out any contam I might have. It certainly would get more fruit per quart of grain spawn though. You don't see slowed colonization time with the 1:4 and thick pseudo case? Looking forward to giving it a try and seeing for myself as well.

Read your guide today Beef! This is going to be of use to so many people. I think you did a great job wording what the shroomery is about and also condensing all that information into an easily navigatable document. An epic task!

thank you tweeq.
guy on a buffalo, of course the colonization time on 1:4 is slower but its well worth it . 4 oz per every 2qt tub on first flush is standard.

Thank you sir! First time grower and your guide is very much appreciated.
Could you recommend vendors that sell fully prepared grain jars?

No. I donβt think anyone will advocate you buying prepped grains from anyone. That goes for pretty much anything in this hobby.

Check the websites of the shroomeryβs trusted vendors.

I bought fully prepared brf jars from Midwest, and although they came through without contamination and did colonize and fruit, I would not do it again. When I cut open cakes I found voids in the mycelium which I think indicated poorly mixed rice flour and verm. Also, they really slowed down and in a few cases would not colonize the bottom of the jar. This could happen if the jars got a lot of vibration in shipping, and got packed down (?), maybeβ¦
Also, they used the tall jars, not the short wide jars, and those tall jars do not colonize as evenly or quickly.
It was my first grow so I was looking to pay for as much help as I could. It worked but not as well as if Iβd made my own jars, and it was here, on Shroomery, that I leaned the folly of the tall jars.
Take the advice of the experienced growers here and make your own BRF jars. There is lots of good advice here, and some demonstrations on YouTube. Its cheaper too.
As for inoculate, everyone here is going to counsel you to get agar and isolate clean spawn to inoculate with. Its good advice but also more work. I source liquid culture from myyco labs, who advertise here.
Many of Shroomeryβs experienced members will warn you of the dangers of LC, and those warnings are valid. My experience with Myyco was positive. I got what a paid for, on time and without contamination (how do I know that? I used the same syringe to inoculate 9 cakes PE and another 9 BM, got some surface trich on 2 bm after dunking and rolling, but nothing on the other 16 cakes, and I was able to fruit the two trich cakes by isolating them after cutting off the mold)
So my very new, very limited experience is make your own cakes, but its OK to purchase LC from Myyco to save that step.
Good luck!

Appreciate the advice!
What are some of the major issues with using LC? From what I've read it seems to be the optimal choice over spore stringe?
