That sounds like a lot of manure in the TTBVI substrate but I'm not sure if this is translated correctly.

I would try use between 10% to 25% horse manure, and experiment with coir and straw but I would avoid hay.

You don't need to be complicated with the substrate recipe, some people are successful adding only some plant liquid fertilizer to coir for their Pan cyan substrate.

"3 tablespoons of mycelium" do you mean 3 jars of grain spawn?

I always spawn Pan cyans at 1 part grain spawn to 4 parts substrate but I know others prefer to use higher ratios of grain spawn with great success.

TTBVI sometimes does colonise the casing but usually it is OK and will fruit, you can't do much with this grow except maintain proper condtions and keep waiting for now.

Do you have more spores? Maybe you should try a new culture from spore, avoid fluffy mycelium and select for the fine and whispy mycelium.

that's 1 tablespoon.)
In the future I want to try “sapropel” instead of manure. I don't know what it means in English, sapropel is a bottom sediment in a body of water.

With these smaller pieces if doing 4 jars.

How long does it normally take for you to fully colonized a grain jar?

---

If I am doing 4 jars I do this and use one wedge per jar. It usually takes 14 to 25 days depending on genes and amount of grain.

personally i use the whole plate, cut to quarters and never picked off the Transfer piece (with pretty good success so far)
could you please elaborate, why you don't use this part? i think if there was any contam by the time you put to grain it will be grown out on the Plate as well and not "stick" to the Transfer piece...?
did i miss sth?

---

Yeah tigerdrop is a thing and I've done that as well, did fine, now days I just play it safe, it might take a week longer with one small wedge and not several, but I got time and other shit to do so it's fine.

What I don't have time for is throwing out baccy jars and cleaning unnecessary shit, man I really don't like cleaning after 8 years of brewing beer, I'm sick of it

With that said, with good sterile technique I agree tigerdrop should be fine in most cases.

Maybe i should actually give it a try, my perspective always was that the faster your grains colonize the less prone to contam they are in general so i just used the whole thing
i must admit i never thought about reducing the risk by using a fairly small Portion of the dish to up the odds it is in fact clean tissue...
there's so many options to go about it and it just never gets boring to see what other people do
i totally agree on the cleaning thing, though!

I mean, I just found out my SFD's is defect and don't allow air exchange, so yeah, guess there's many was to go about it with this hobby

Sorry for my rant, I'm just bummed out I just got 768 SFD's stickers I can't use and the leak-proof plastic lids don't do well as unmodified.

Give it a go and do both, you might prefer it, now that I have enough shrooms for my children's children, I do a lot more experiments that might be better for me way of cultivating, if it fails it fails, no worries..

These SFD's tho...

Question!

Does anyone know what the deal is with wrinkly looking caps?

Is this just a pheno or an indication of something else? Or do we know?

I have a pretty good flush of Wild Coast coming in now, but the caps look like
my grandmother's chin. My humidity is pretty high and everything looks good
hydration-wise.
