Hey shroomery, QQ. 

Is this knotting before being fully colonized?




In general, that isnt a concern with coir.

If it were grain or cakes that weren't fully colonized fruiting id be worried.

That will be a healthy flush given conditions dont dry too much

hey everyone,

For grins today, I'm running seven jars of oats using Yoshi's no soak, no boil technique.

For anyone who has tried this before, how long should I PC my 1 quart jars at 15 psi? In his original write up he talks about pint jars going for 90 minutes. Should my quarts go longer than that?

I vent, bring to pressure, then pc for 2 hours

Be sure to shake them when removing from the pc to minimize clumping and redistribute moisture, and give it some more shakes over the next day or so.

Good luck hope it turns out well for you.

If there's enough meat under the dirt then I'll use a sharp paring knife to cut/peel the outer layer off

Otherwise I'll chop off the bottom and toss it

Mine will sometimes moan when I do it. Not sure what that's about, but I try to be quick with the rest cuz it's kinda awkward.

When is the right time to shake a quart jar of grain?

Are we looking for some percentage of colonization, or some kind of timeline?

Is shaking it a second time helpful or detrimental?

And I’m pretty sure if you shake it a third time, you’re just playing with it right?

Multiple shakes are fine , some wait for 25 ish percent to colonize others will shake at like 10 n 50 lol

Vegetable peeler

Helps to have a small container of water handy to rinse things (fruits, peeler).

Can I use perlite instead of vermiculite to make BRF cakes? If not, is there any substitute to vermiculite? I can't find it.

What about inorganic granulated fertilizer with phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium?


I haven't done what I'm about to propose, but in my mind it would work. Someone can chime in if my thinking is off the rails.

You could use coir instead of vermiculite. Both are water reservoirs.

Prep your coir to field capacity, scoop 2 cups into a bowl, add 1 cup brf, then add water a little at a time until it's at field capacity. Load into jars. Keep it fluffy, don't compress it.

You would need filtered lids for this method, because you wouldn't have the dry verm barrier. Any filtered lid would work, but it would be right easy to punch a hole in the lid and cover it with micropore tape or stuff it with polyfil.



Works like a charm. When I started culting there wasn't any verm to be found anywhere so coir it was

Hands.

Rubbing substrate and stray myc off the bottom, maybe ripping the bottom off if fhe base of the stem is looking janky, then pulling fruits apart like string cheese. All in one fluid motion.

this sits on my kitchen counter, also great for harvesting wild treats in the woods. The brush is super handy. For coir stuck to the base of Cubes, i’ll more often than not slice off a couple mm from the bottom.
