I did, and I wasn't too impressed, which is why I'm wondering if  making the culture severely sick from the start would have an impact on all of its processes and not just poor yield and deformed fruits.

I was under the impression that after you add your substrate to your colonized grain, you seal it off and do not allow any air flow. It's been that way for about 2 weeks. I'm not sure if this is normal or if it's trashed. Thanks from the beginner.

There's already more on grain and LC ready to rock, so it's whatever. But the possibility of severe contamination ruining the potency would pretty much put me in the "just toss it and start over" camp. I was just curious...certainly isn't the end of the world - appreciate ya man. 🤙

Thats old tek. Its general consensus that introducing FAE at the start of colonization be a standard. That being said it won’t hurt anything to start FAE now.

Okay, lid back on with no air for another week or go ahead and get some air to it and start the fruiting

That should be better, yeah.  Glass doesn't breathe.  Plastic does.

I don't remember the thread title, but someone did test a bunch of storage methods.  Glass jars with desiccant beat vacuum sealing.  Of course, vacuum sealing and putting in a glass jar would probably be even better.

There are better methods, involving ground fruits and c02, but glass + desiccant is the most accessible for most folks and will keep fruits potent for over a year easily.


I have been vacuuming sealing fruits for years AND putting in a desiccant pack or 2 with no issue.

I will contest it can crush fruits if you dont find that sweet spot when sealing, but if you put weight before bag appeal (worst case scenario the fruits break) it wont be an issue

I double bag it to avoid crushing: ziplock with silica (with a tiny gap in the zip) and then vaccum seal

That's good to know.  Jars are bulky, and I have a vacuum sealer already.

Please redirect me if this info exists, but I'm about to fruit my first bag and considering a larder bin setup.

Is there a checklist of best practices for both bad growing and the bin?

Question I still have about the bin process is best way to procure substrate.

Thanks very much from an eager new mycologist!🙏

I also put my vac bags in the freezer which keeps them from getting softer after a year+.  I haven’t seen any loss in potency putting them in the freezer after 2+ years so idk where that one study is getting their info from.

I don’t really understand ppls fascination with bag appeal.  You’re about to chew the damn things up… I just saved you time :lol:  I’m also the guy at the dispensary loading up on $30 ounces of shake that no else wants.. saves me money and time grinding the shit up

Are these plates clean in the first picture below and able to put to grains? I posted these plates last week about putting way too much red dye which I guess messed up the mycelium growth on the agar since according to some people red food coloring has anti fungal properties.




And check out the bottom Tidal Wave plates in the picture below. Wtf is up with the growth? I made transfers to new better plates but it seems like it's still growing puffy like that.



I've been working with new strains lately and noticed they all have different mycelium growth which I'm not used to. Should I lower the nutes in my agar?

This 100%. I take the caps off and lay them flat before vacuum sealing so it still looks pretty. But personally they’re going to get ground up before consumption anyway. It’s all the same by the time it hits your stomach.

Hi all.

Is this bag too full?



It is a [brand name here] 5lb bag.  I used 4.4lb (dry weight) milo.

Kind regards, and thanks in advance
