I plan to run a mono tub or two but I want to jump on the shoebox train for a look see. Is Bod's still a decent way to go? What teks are you guys using for shoeboxes?

Buy a shoebox. Put spawn and coir in a shoebox. Open it when it’s full of shrooms? :shrug:

Edit because that kinda sounds shitty, but I don’t mean it to. Shoeboxes are really that simple. 6qt sterilite shoeboxes have lids that don’t seal. No need to mod them. One or two quarts of spawn mixed with 4-6 quarts of coir and slap the lid on. I really don’t do much to mine until they hit the lid.

Yeah that's basically been my solution is just add an extra quart of water and sacrifice the top layer of jars.

So 4 quarts is okay to run? How much is the max?


The manual says 2/3 full is the max for pressure cooking.


just a quick point here that logically speaking, the manual assumes you're putting sealed containers in there and thus reducing the volume of the pressurized area.  we always use vented jars which do little to reduce pressurized volume, so while I'd never advise someone to deviate from engineering specifications, there may be a little leeway in this use-case.

Thanks for the feedback. Just bouncing the question since info is outdated here sometimes. I wanna know what the pros are doing right now, not "X" amount of time ago.

What is that odd looking thing in the bag in your signature, Roscoe? Looks like a cactus.

On your PC, when the lid lock pops up, and you start venting, what is coming out of the vent tube?
A) A steady stream of steam.
B) Steam, followed by spurts of water, farts, steam, spurts of water, and so on.

Reishi antlers. It’s one of the Ganoderma mushrooms, I can’t remember exactly which. They usually would be found growing out of a dead tree in a conch form, but will form antlers in bags and tubs.

I'm a big fan of the sterilite clearviews.  those brightrooms are too flimsy in larger sizes and I'd have my substrates cracking just from moving the tub.

also the way the sterilites are designed, the FAE allowance when you flip the lids is really nice.

My initial assumption this slightly discolored area could be contaminated but the tub smells absolutely fine and the mycelium has been very healthy through this tubs colonization. Just the discoloring obviously myself and nobody else likes in addition to the lack of pins in that area.

Anyone got anything for meh?

Haha baccy is for bacteria, yeah?

Surface on all tubs has been most excellent with the combination of yours and pasty’s tubs.

Sputters. No spitting. Just a few breaks in the steam  a bit for a bout a min or so while its building up then full steam for the full vent.


I don't know as far everything I've gathered I think maybe it just simply has to do with three quarts of water not being enough?

Unless everyone else out there is putting three quarts of water and not losing at least half of it in a 2-hour cycle.



Are you guys adding extra water for anything 3 hours or more? Or is 3 quarts enough for that as well?


I think finding out some answers to those two questions from some people might ease my mind a bit and help me stop being so paranoid.

Id Hate to be making a big deal about losing too much water if I'm actually losing a normal amount lol.



I mean I did actually run out of water once. But that hasn't happened again since I started putting extra weight on the rocker.

And then I lost even less water after oiling the gasket. I guess maybe I'm right at where I should be now that I took care of that stuff. Hopefully.


This is it for the PC conversation guys. I appreciate it all. I don't want to hijack This Thread anymore

I use 4 quarts to run 157 min cycles at 4500ft elevation. I haven’t measured exact remaining water after the cycle but it’s likely 40-50%.
