Are you sure you got those sizes right? It’s pretty common knowledge that half gram fits in 00 caps, and even then it can be a chore. I’d love to see half gram of powder in a 0 caps. The smaller the better.

Just checked, you are correct. It was 00. My bad!

Patient zero is still hanging on about 18 hours later. This might be wishful thinking but the two things that give me hope (in addition to the color not being green is) (1) this is a pretty beefy tub spawned at about 1:5 ratio - I would not expect to see this much colonization after 10-11 days with a contaminated tub; and (2) the issue appears localized to the blobs themselves, making me think it’s some kind of environmental stressor - in the past I have seen contam spread quickly to the sub itself but the sub here continues to look OK.

Does that include the weight of the capsule?

It's not easy to get .5 into a 00 capsule. Mine maxed out at around .42 each, but if I could somehow powder the material much more finely, I might get .5.

It does include the capsul weight.

I use a ninja blender to grind the mushrooms.

One blade breaks it down into the consistency of sand, another does it into flour. I've gotten the most using the flour consistency.

Ninja blenders can be pretty great, especially higher end models. That's how i stuff my capsules. Although i too don't get quite .5 no matter what I try. Just close. Could be my laziness, at a certain point im just like "why even bother trying to squeeze more for a .03 or .04 increase"

It's been a few. Mixing up coir. It's coir weight in grams times 4.6ish for ml of water, correct??

Is it possible to put plastic Petri dishes directly inside the PC like maybe in stacks of 10 wrapped in foil or Saran Wrap like a sleeve for no pour?

I fit 1/2 gram of powder into the 00 caps. Total weight is about 0.64 grams. You can check out the process

Dang that's a professional looking set up. I think I'm too lazy to get it this perfect for an increase of a .04, but that is a rad pristine process for stuffing these bad boys.

Ya i use. 4.5


I use coco bliss

650g coir.  2.9L of water.  Just go with 3L.  But yeah you should be good with any amount if you multiply by 4.5


However it can depend on the brand of coir.  So if it comes out a little too wet you may need to add some verm to balance it out.

Depends on your coir. I usually start around 4ml per gram and adjust from there.

Depends on your petris. If they are PP5, then yes you can. Other plastics will melt in the PC. You do need a way to make sure they stay level.

Rev recommended a brand of pp5 and that's what I've been using. I run them in unicorn bags to do sterilize my plates.

I bring it bring it to field capacity and then leave it alone.
There should be no misting involved.

Thank you.


I was actually looking thru that . And its definitely heplful..

but already have a bunch of 90mm dishes. And that's won't work with the 90mm. It says you would have to figure out another container if you wanted to do that.

And that  what I'm trying to figure out right now about using  foil or Saran for the container/sleeve.

So ya I'm just trying to figure out a way to do 90 mm the same way  without purchasing another expensive canister(the one i have was gifted to me and only holds 10-12plates.)  like this

Oh, yeah I sterilize my 90mm in unicorn bags.  I didn't have issues with condensation doing pour plates that way.  Just the no pours.

Anyway, you don't need a container.  Foil would work.  I'm not sure on saran wrap, I've never tried to run it in the pressure cooker.
