Hi there! B+ LC on grain grew at an unexpected rate. I leave in three days for a week long trip. Spawn to shoe boxes right before I leave, or right after I get back?





That looks.maybe a bit bacterial to my eye. See how it fills in. It may end up better to top fruit it than s2b

That uncolonized area top right looks a little green around the edges, is it like that in person?

Holy shit dude you are eagle eyed. I had to like zoom in x20 to see what you were talking about, but I think you are right. Does seem a little green there.

Regarding unmodded shoeboxes, is it better to keep the sub depth nearly filling the box so that the gap provided when dub tubbing is bringing fresh air more to the surface of the sub? I ran boxes 1:4 compressed, which resulted in boxes that were probably less than half full. I wasn't sure if incoming air being above the surface like that was less than ideal or if its all good. I could also be overthinking this, but I didnt have the best pinsets in any of my boxes, and while the fruits showed no other signs of being smothered, my cubes all had fuzz up a good portion of the stipe, and a few pins basically developed a sort of fluffy blob of myc "pillow" at the base. I do not have pics - probably should have taken some, but fruits were healthy so I wrote it off.

If that means the sub being 4 in deep or more then I would be more concerned about the spawn being absolutely perfect. That’s a lot of mass in the middle that might struggle to colonize leaving you with an uneven pinset anyway. Gaps being closer to the subs surface doesn’t help the fresh air exchange because warmer air on the surface rises causing the exchange of air

Idk what you mean about sub depth impacting colonization speed. In my mind, if I go 1:3+1qt top layer, the depth of the sub shouldn't matter bc its mixed. I could put it in a pringles can and have 12in sub depth, but its still thoroughly mixed, right?

And that pretty well makes sense about gap positioning. Ive worked with processes that rely on negative air pressure drafting gasses and providing oxygen to combusting fuel, but to try to apply that here has my brain confused bc I cant visualize the warm air rising and creating the draft needed to bring fresh air through the gap. I feel like the warm air would need to leave through the top to draft fresh air through the bottom. If I had some sort of outlet at the top, it would make sense to me. Im just over explaining my confusion and not saying youre wrong, just so that's clear. Everything worked out fine - I just thought my tubs may perform better if the sub surface was closer to the level of the gap is all.

don‘t overcomplicate it.
get your spawn clean and let it do its thing.

Heard. Overthinking is absolutely my jam. Still trying to figure out if its a bug or a feature though.

Surface area out yields sub depth consistantly IME. 2in. is perfect IMHO.


The deeper the sub the more spawn should be added.
So the ratio will be changed accordingly.

Gas exchange is important as anaerobic environments putrefy easily.

How stupid is it to send fruits via mail? I wanna send my friend some but I have obvious concerns. Does USPS UPS FEDEX x ray? Would I get into legal trouble or would they just dispose of the package?


So, it's none of my business if one wants to break the law.

UPS and Fed ex are private corporations whose terms of service say they can look in your shit...USPS is federal and need a warrant but the postmaster general gets them like candy, WHEN THERE IS PROBABLE CAUSE...if nobody knows and there is no weed scent on the package, I don't know why it would get flagged

And this is what I appreciates about you guys - I wouldn't have considered that GE is reduced as sub depth increases. Do we have any kind of a standard for determining at what point this needs to be taken into consideration or does a guy just eyeball it and figure ratio needs to go up some once we're beyond 4"?

Nothing matters as long as your spawn is clean.

Oh yeah haha
I can’t remember if he checked the center of the tub/sub to see if it was colonized

Just got to be careful that your propane burner isn't too powerful. Like one of those turkey cooker burners is way too many btu. Maybe something like an outdoor camping Grill. The kind that has foldable legs but it's actually thick heavy cast iron or something

Here's a few cheaper options other than the cadco that definitely works well








Just make sure you check how many BTU the pressure cooker is rated for so it doesn't warp and break it.

I believe Stipe makes his PE shoe boxes filled all the way to the rim.

I don't know if he is adjusting the amount of Spawn though. I feel like he uses the same amount of Spawn(i could be wrong tho) and enough sub to fill the Box all the way up completely.

However the thought process behind this is that it allows more water retention for the varieties that absolutely love water. Other than that he hasn't said anything about being closer for air exchange.
