no you can spawn in open air once ur grain is fully colonized its not prone to infection

Ready to mix my spawn and bulk today, does this need to be done in a SAB?  Or just clean everything with ISO and wear gloves?  Is the mycelium relatively resilient once it gets to this stage?  I

ve read about mixing vs layering and im just going to mix.  How thick should the casing layer be?  Ive got 3 quarts of spawn going into 3 shoeboxes with coir


No need for gloves either, I use gloves because I don't want coir under my nails. I wipe my tubs with iso, but not really necessary, it's just whats around and I want to get dust out to make me feel good:muppet:

With 1qt spawn you can do 1:2 to 1:4 as long as you're confident you spawn is clean. I do 1:4+1(pseudo casing), if spawn looks sus i do 1:2+1.

So, are these fruits and pins fucked?

I found these green spots yesterday on a 'shoebox' that a ran as experiment shoebox without air holes (among in total 6 of these shoeboxes without holes). Eventually I added holes to the last 2, as they looked stalled. All the other 4 I got rid off, because of greens. Anyways, I'm now 99% sure these specific 'shoeboxes' need air holes. Anyways 2, what do you think; will these fruits fruit further, and will the small fruits and pin develop further? Or will it become a green oase?

Finally got some pins coming in! Thanks for all your help, it's been a great learning experience. I have a feeling the next grow will be excellent.

Yeah, it doesn't look good.

I don't need these fruits, and frankly I'm interested in what it will work out. I never had greens this late. Is it to be expected the greens will take over everything?

It looks to me green mold, a little powdery green in real life.

Thanks and I'm planning on transferring it to a plastic bin once some coir arrives, I think two more days... Meanwhile a few days with the bag loosely closed here's how it's looking now. I guess these are pins? Don't know how this is looking or where it's going but it's at least not staying the same:)

Looking better. She wants to pin, but looks dry as I can't see any beads of water. If it's as dry as it looks, pour a little water down the side while you wait for the coir. Keep the lid mostly on. It's gonna pop.

Question - has anyone, anywhere prepped any grains other than rye in a sous vide?

I'd like to try wheat or sorghum when my rye gets low. I might just have to nut up, figure it out, and write up my very first tek...

"Klarn's pretty-good-close-enough sous vide wheat tek!!!"

Sounds like an excellent way to break the circulation motor in your sous vide.

How does this look for field capacity?  At first glance the coir looked and seemed dry, but when I squeeze the living hell out of it I get a couple drops. Good I think?

Picture is a little deceiving, there was droplets of water falling too, not just what is visible in my fingers

Do you mean sealing grain in bags with water and cooking sous vide style or using the machine to maintain a constant temperature?

I hydrate my wheat using my IP on the "Keep Warm" setting, it's much the same thing as what is happening here.

The keep warm setting on an IP or rice cooker is not constant but sits around 70C(158F)

Yeah it will work with any grain IMO, it's how we used to hydrate grains in a kitchen I worked in because you can just leave them and continue working without much fear of bursting the grain.

Edit: To be specific, we didn't use a sous vide machine! I'm not sure if grain will clog the machine.

We used the stove and a big ass pot on the lowest setting and this would hold around 70C.

I use this sous vide tek for rye. It's just the grain in a pot with plenty of water. 90 min @150F. I stir 4-5 times during the cycle to promote even hydration. Strain and load jars, easy squeezy.

I know wheat berries are bigger than rye, but plenty of water prevents grain interference around the spinner.

I'ma do it, time to order a small bag of hard winter red.

That's cool if you can watch it, just how I learned to do it in a kitchen because you can do other shit and not burst a bunch of grain if it's on for a bit longer than intended.

I'm being pedantic but that's not sous vide.

Its just a tool heating your water up to a constant temperature :shrug:

If you put the grain in bags with water, sealed and then cooked them in the water bath. That would be sous vide.

I am aware of that, but it's too easy a process for me to worry about nomenclature.

If you have the machine anyway go ahead assuming it doesn't fuck the machine it will work for sure, that is basically what I am doing with grain in an IP but I wouldn't bother buying the machine for the purpose of hydrating grain.
