Slam the bottom of the jar into your thigh like you're trying to get the last bit of ketchup. Or catsup. Idk how that makes sense...probably a regional spelling.

The plate was definitely a clean one. Looked amazing until I shook it up in the jar.  I’m guessing enough clean myc got on grains so I guess I’ll wait and see 🤷‍♂️

There’s just no way that it was fine before the shake.

All you’re doing is just showing yourself what was in the jar when you shake it.

everything was already in the jar. You thought it looked fine. Then after you shook it it turns out it wasn’t. That contamination was already in the jar. You’re just able to see it now.

:whathesaid:

Alternatively you could SHAKE THE HOLY SHIT OUT OF IT like you're an english nanny.  I recently got one stuck to the lid and managed to obliterate it by shaking violently.  That whole jar colonized very quickly compared to the others, but it's just not worth the effort for me.

Flash forward to me taking a shopping cart full of grain jars to home depot and doing rounds in the paint shaker...

Hypothetically speaking - if a first flush weighed 300g wet, would it make sense to add 300ml of water back to the sub to fully rehydrate?

Or has more water weight been lost through evaporation /condensation and therefore more needs to be added to facilitate a second flush?

It's been consuming and removing material as well, so no it would not be exact.  Just give it a soak if it looks thirsty and let it decide what it's going to uptake.

I like that you’re trying to directly equate one with the other. It’s best to just soak it or water it down the side and just let it soak as much as it can in a day and then dump off the excess.

Hi! So, sorry if this is too long, I just wanna be thorough, but here’s the story so far: I had my first two successful colonizations with some all-in-one bags. Same genetics, liquid culture, but one bag definitely colonized a bit faster than the other, though both took months even with breaking and mixing. Inoculated 8/1/24, but I had to travel a bunch Nov-Jan and put off fruiting until about a week and a half ago. Seems like that may have been a mistake.

From what I’ve read, I’ve definitely got a lot of overlay on the cakes, but I did the recommended hoodie tek anyway, leaving them each in a slightly propped open dub tub of shoeboxes. Didn’t have rubber bands, so I tied them with twine, which didn’t work because both bags got a bunch of side pins. The fast bag kept growing and I felt bad for the side pins so I cut the bag off and put some wet perlite and a sheet of foil in that dub tub. It has been producing prodigiously all week, and I’ve been harvesting as they mature, still first flush, and still no fruits in the middle top of the cake, but a ton everywhere else. Still in a dub tub, spraying the top tub a couple times a day as it uses it, and that cake is doing great.

The other bag is still in the bag hoodie tek style in its dub tub with nothing else. I’ve been spraying and fanning, indirect light, room is 70-72 all day, same conditions the other bag was in before I cut the bag off and just stuck it in the SGFC with the foil and perlite. There are still a bunch of pins around the edges and on the sides, and even new pins showing up, but they’re just not growing much. Don’t look like aborts either, as far as I know. I’ve added a pic, and I’d appreciate any advice or guesses on what’s going wrong. Should I fork tek the overlay part? Should I cut the bag off and do the same perlite/foil that I did for the other one? Is it too dry? Too wet? I took the top tub off today and just left the hoodie, and there does appear to be more evaporation happening, and a few more pins, but no big growth. Is it maybe fighting contam or something? I have no idea. Thanks!

Knowing is half the battle

What's a good amount of water to bucket Tek 850 g coir?


What's the number were multiplying by these days? I remember someone say multiply it by 5 at one point. So 650 g by 5.  Which comes out to 3,250

Thats 3.25 liters. 


I don't remember who posted it.  Maybe bod.  So I think I remember what him saying but that was leaving a lot of people with soupy coir. 

So I think maybe instead he said multiply by 4 or 4.5? Can anybody confirm this?

So guess I'm looking at somthing like 3.4 to 3.8 liters of water for 850g of coir. 

Can somebody experienced please check my math here and everything and just tell me if I'm good with these numbers?

what brand coir are you using? or is it a generic bulk brick?
some brands can hold more than others

i usually start around 4x and if i need to add more i will

a lot of people will omit the verm and wonder why 5x makes it soupy lol
i havent ever really had a coir good enough that held 5x without verm

i use 4.44x for cannacoir brand right now currently and no verm
i used to use eco earth and that only holds 3.5-4x water

i also prefer my coir a little on the drier side than overly wet.. ymmv
