PF tek question
    #2917539 - 07/22/04 08:14 PM (19 years, 7 months ago)

Is boiling the Jars sufficient enough because i dont have the money right now to go out and buy a pressure cooker, all of my money is being spent on vermiculite, perlite, BRF, jars, and the sterilization equipment(lysol, gloves, alcohol) so can some one give me some help, and also about casing whats the best method for PF cakes alright thanx

Yep, you can boil them. If you want to be really extra careful, you could fractal sterilize 'em, that's what I do.

read the FAQ.

it means to.

sterilize.
let sit.
any endospores remaining germinate.
re-serilize.
endospores dead.

Alounacara
you do not need a PC for PF tek. only grain with hidden endospores need the sterilization with the massive pressure.

to answer your question of casings.

you can just roll them in vermiculite and have them stand upright through pinning and cropping. or you can pick up a substrate like coco-coir & mix it with vermiculite & crumble the cakes, let the substrate colonize, and then case.


if you are looking for a dirty cheap Pressure Cooker. I have one. It's a 22Quart Presto Pressure Cooker. It is in good condition. I can sell it for $45 Canadian + shipping and handling. The retail price on it is $130 canadian.


Cheers, hope to have helped you

Quick question, what's the best way to get and keep the water sterile and clean before using it for innoculation?

I may not be undestanding your question...but...you dont need water for innoculation?

if you're talking about the water in the jars, just seal them up with tape

if I mention anything about the posession or production of illegal mushrooms, I am making it up.
