I saw it discussed, but no. Someone said they'd cut it out and carry on. 🤷‍♂️

Yes. They looked like scorch marks to me, I believe kloak suggested using some h202 to treat the spots just in case they were a conta.. I haven't used the bricks that had the white shitnon the. Yet but I plan on treating them before hand just in case. I noticed that on mine they showed up wherever there were these little holes in the plastic. The holes look like they got there from heat.

That would make sense. It hasn’t grown in two weeks. Has been the same size since I originally saw it. And it’s been in the big 10 brick box in the plastic bit loosely wrapped.

I usually do the whole hot boiling water and the big igloo I use for coir takes minimally two days to get to where it’s even cool enough. 

Guess I’ll intentionally set it aside and save it for one of the grows I “don’t care about” and test it out.

I had only planned on a certain number originally then my ABV genetics got stupid enough to the point I couldn’t throw the plates away.

This hobby kinda sucks.  Lol

Yeah whoever gave me the advice said that they never had any issues after treating with the h202. I wish I had taken a picture of it in the packaging because the holes line up perfectly with the suspected area. But better safe than sorry, I'm definitely gonna do a little preventative maintenance on the coir beforenindo anything with it. It was on like 3/5 bricks I got.

Any pointers to the state of the art of nutritious pasteurizable  substrates for cubensis? Coming from the perspective of edible species, getting all your nutrition from grain seems grossly inefficient, though I can see the logistic advantage.

It was I that told you I just sprayed the small spots with h202 and then process with standard bucket tek boiling water. I always thought it was a white mold so I just took precautions.  I haven't had a problem with any bricks that had the spots following that method.

I feel like this conversation just happened a couple pages ago.

Grain and coir is all ya need. If you can find a TC that says otherwise, I'll shit in my hat. 🤘

pretty much thrum.

theres more than enough nutrition in the grain to sustain the number of flushes you get before you run out of water. dont try to apply horticulture to growing cubes.

ive always wondered if silica gel would have some benefit in terms of hydration. not sure if anyones done it. probably.

I probably will still be over precautious.Lol. So I appreciate the tip.

I have had too many grows that under performed and finally nailed it down to 1) field capacity 2) dog shit coir from the Zon.

Think this is the first run I’ve done with the Coco Bliss and am very happy.

Ordered these agar dishes, package came all liquidy and non-congealed.


They seem fairly packaged, but overall disappointed with the fact that none of these seem to be cured. Are these worth saving by putting in the fridge or should I ask for my money back?

I'd see if you could get your money back man. I get through a sponsor and their ates are always nice I've only ever gotten one yeast colony on over a hundred plates I've ordered.

Jeebus.  Money back with extreme prejudice.  It's difficult for me to imagine how this even happened, if they were produced correctly in the first place.

If you have any kind of PC-type device, you really should consider making your own plates.  Much cheaper I'd imagine - and not particularly challenging.

Thanks. I've spent a good chunk so far trying to grow and I keep failing. Feeling disappointed today and will pick myself back up and try again. Hard not to feel discouraged. T_T

The other four look just as bad.






My heart dropped when I pulled them out of the package.

Yeah, that's super-shitty.  Sorry man.

You could nuke them to re-melt the agar so that it's in a horizontal plane (if that's even a valid agar recipe?) and leave them for a while to see whether they contam before you try to use them, but they're probably not worth the effort.  Refund.
