With most species you should see germ pop by at least day 14( my semps took 14 or more days.)

When noccing the plates were you using an sab/glovebox/flow hood?

Did you properly sanitize and/or sterilize your equipment thoroughly as necessary?

Otherwise the low temp sit may have killed your spores, depending on packaging.

May I ask what species?

I don't seal them. I haven't used bags for about a year, but I remember sometimes I'd fold them and they'd self seal like you said, other times they'd inflate and touch the sides of the PC and melt.

I was just wondering if there is a video or guide or something that showed how to fold them so they self sealed every time.

Thank you Kloakk.

@cronc I'm using a glass top stove, not sure why I get bags melting. It doesn't happen all the time but happened enough that I started wrapping my bags in a wet rag. This was over a year ago, so I'll try adding more water the next time I run bags.

These are the most common ways I fold bags with 90% of the time going with not tucking but just folding on top

I use a flat head screwdriver and a hammer just put the screwdriver where you want and Hammer it down a little bit it'll Hammer right into the block and split off big chunks I found this to be a very easy way.


. Oops lol lew beat me too it.  Srry.

:whathesaid:

The same way you would use a log splitter on a piece of wood.

Only some parts of Canada puts milk into bags, I didn't realize other parts of the world did it as well.

I'm using my bags to make woodchips for my Azure bed.

yeah flathead and splitting bricks of coir along the grains is definitely the way to go


You savages :muppet:

I'm over here using a hand saw and splitting a 5kg block in to seven pieces of 714g, putting each piece in individual bags and whatnot :rofl:



I keep my 10 lb brick inside of one of my monos.. do all of my breaking and splitting in there and when I'm done I just leave the mess where it's at and put the lid on and leave it until I'm ready to do it again.

Imo the tops look dark, and the stems look kind of yellow and a little almost wrinkled.

It looks like they’re struggling to get enough water. That’s just what it looks like to me. I could be totally wrong.

Folding is fine I'll fold n use chip clips sometimes



What do you do when it's time for the break and Shake then? you just do it gently? More of a knead and mix I guess?
