You can use coir without pasteurization, so why not. As long as it's properly hydrated.

Yall quick question. I did my bucket tek for coir and I must of not used enough water cus when I was mixing it there was alot of dry chunks and I had to add water the next day. Would yall use it still? not sure if it's safe to use.


Next time, just break up and mix in the chunks and then check for field capacity. I always have the chunks too, but it comes out after breaking it up. If you used an amount of water that usually gets you to FC, then you're probably well over now, with the added water. Id check it and either squeeze out the excess or add more, depending on how much you made and how much of a PITA squeezing is gonna be. Ive seen people add very to excessively wet coir too.

Ty guys and Thurman just find the dirtiest thing in your house and clean it and if you see somethin about just as dirty clean that too. You'll feel accomplished and want to keep it going. Haircuts/grooming yourself helps too.

keep mixing and squeezing/breaking the chunks up by hand

heres a perfect thread and video on field capacity
https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/25087128

And in terms of safe to use: I've read coir in a bucket can last for up to a month, so it'll be fine. Main thing is that moisture.

Might sound weird, but when I'm really stuck I tell my self that; it's okay to be stuck, it doesn't matter, nothing really matters, I'm a tiny speck of matter in a infinite universe and that this feeling, as all things, will pass. Somehow that takes my mind of thinking about how stuck I am, all the things I should have done and need to do.. The funny thing is, the feeling loses it's power and I am no longer using energy thinking about it, then I am finally recharging, a couple of days or weeks later I have the energy to do shit again and enjoy them..

Hey mate,

Noob grower here. Haven’t had much luck up until this point with dialing in my tubs. This tub has taken 1month and a half  monthsto get to this point.
Hope you don’t mind me asking? But have you ever fruited Lucid gates before?
I was under the impression it was an Albino strain?  Do these look like albino pins?

Oh your diagnosis is spot on. Along with CPTSD, which likes to manifest in ways that are symptomatic of a lot of other things, so it's a straight up melting pot of bullshit over here. Lmao Im the best I've ever been and there's nothing to worry about so that's good at least.

Yes, momentum. Im currently at the total standstill part. I'm going to make coffee when I get off work, get jacked to the tits and then hopefully go ham on all of this. Ill post pics for the reward feedback and hope I keep moving. 🤣

It’s real easy to overdue your workload in this hobby. New projects stack on top of other new projects and before you know it things start to feel like work instead of an enjoyable hobby and learning experience. Short or even long brakes and minimalizing current projects have helped me get the spark back several times.

Quick question

Will pasteurized and/or sterilized substrate (coir and verm) contaminate if left in higher temps?

Example, if I make substrate that’s properly pasteurized or sterilized and left it somewhere with temps in the 90s for a week or so, would there be a higher chance it contams?

Generally coir and verm don't need to be sterilized or pasteurized if there is no added nutrients. They should keep at any temperature for a very long time.

However, I have seen some grow stuff if they did get cross contaminated with something nutritional like from using a bucket that had been used for grain soak.

If you have properly sterilized or pasteurized it then keep in a dedicated clean bucket it should be even better for quite a while.

sterilized: everything died. Nothing will resuscitate.
pasteurized: some thermophilic and mesophilic bacteria will resist.
but more important: why are you sterilizing CV?

I have 4 tubs of Acadia coast that were spawned to bulk on 12/30. On this tub I started to see yellowing on most parts of the tub, no idea if it is contam or not. The front right of the tub on the left and the back left of the tub on the right also look like the mycelium is a softer/almost mushier white color. Any advice is much appreciated. The second pick is the right tub.

Are optimum incubation temps the same regardless of spawn type?  For example BRF cakes and grain spawn.  I live in an area with extreme temp swings so am using a TiT for some BRF cakes set at 78F, going to inoculate some grain spawn also and wondering if those temps are going to be ok.  I see a lot of varying info when searching

Yep, it does. Put a bunch in a container and cook for 15-20 min.

Sometimes there is a little condensation in the container but you can crack the lid and let it dry in your SAB or in front of the hood.
