 Pics of my setup using PF/MMGG 
#391402 - 09/11/01 03:37 PM (23 years, 2 months ago) |
|

Here are a few pictures of the setup I have been using for just over two years. I use 4 perlite terarriums, each containing 12 cakes. As you can see in the pics I have two on each shelf.
The cakes are all from my own pure culture clones and the cakes all have vermiculate in the center as per. the "InnerReservoir Tek". This and cold shocking the cakes over night in the fridge before birthing result in 1.25 Lb. dry per cycle. Although the first flush produces 75% of this
All of this fits quite nicely into a closet and other then the humm of the fan and heater there has never been a problem. Knock on wood I have only lost ONE jar in all the time I have been growing. In that time I have colonized about 800 jars.
I use a fan attached to a screened box to dry my shrooms and have been very happy with the results.
I am considering moving to a bulk tek using rye grain, but much like most of us, I hesitate due to the success I currently enjoy. I am getting a little sick of all of the work needed to prep and colonize 48 jars though.
I would appreciate any help that could be offered and thanks to all of the people that have posted and responded in the past. I have been lunking for years and wanted to thank all of you.

dude, i really dig your set up. you really get 1.25 dry per cycle? that is excellent! i never got that much with jars. good work...oh ya, i feel your pain, i hate the hassle of preping jars.
hey DEA, everything i said was false

I did not always get that amount...in fact, I was only able to accomplish that after about a year of trials with the various add-on's. Like: The Inner Reservoir Tek, Ramsey seal, increasing the amount of BRF, cold shocking blah..blah..
Any advice on swithcing to a bulk rye grain tek?

That is quite the setup. What do you do with all those shrooms? Let some of them mature and spore print a ton and sell them for cheap and you could cover some of your costs.

Thanks. I enjoy growing and I hope it shows. As far as what I do with the shrooms ...I throw them all out, 'cause selling or ingesting them would be against the law and just like most people here, I would not want to do that.
I have recently purchased 200 micron magic filter disks and I am looking forward to trying them out. I hope that by using them it will cut the veg. time down and therfore increse my output. I use an Austalian strain of cubes that I got from Captin Max at sporelab and they are the largest shrooms i have seen, but take a while to colonize. Maybe the disks are thee answer.
Thanks again.

I don't use the device in the picture for a hygometer only for the temp. I know that the humidity stays consistant with the perlite so I don't even bother checking it anymore. Thanks for the compliment .

This image shows my screened drying box. The fan faces down and forces air to pass across the mushrooms that...
...are placed between the two hinged screens seen here. Once the mushrooms are placed between, the lid is shut and the fan is placed on top. Very simple , but effective. No heat is used and I can dry large amounts in a short period of time. I can supply full construction details if they are desired. Please send me a private messege. I hope this was helpfull.

Well you do tend to produce larger flushes using bulk substrate. May I suggest you go ahead and move on to bulk? Just remember the time it took you to prefect the pf tek will be similar to what it took you to prefect the bulk method! So if you are very comfortable with that method and do not want to risk perfecting something new then stick to what you got. I have seen awesome flushes from bulk substrate.

There's no need to screw around with rye if you wanna do bulk. Just go about your regular PF style cakes and when they are done inoculate a bulk substrate like a manure mix, straw, theres lots of choices. My favorite so far is the horse dung. I just take like 2 or 3 cakes to between 5-10 pounds of the doo and there you go it's bulk. Just a suggestion hope it helps.

I have a few questions:
Where would I find horse maure?
What kind of yeilds should I expect?
Do you use pint jars and would I still case with verm?
Thank you for your time and effort and I look forward to your response.

I use a pure culture and inoculate the jars using the honey water Tek. I ensure sterility by using bothe a ramsey seal and the oven tek. The part that takes the most time is preping all the frigen jars! inoculating the jars is quick and easy.

A full cycle consisting of three flushes take about 30 days. The way I do it though, I get 70% of my shrooms on the first flush. Good things come to those who wait my ass! LOL
Thanks for the good question.

Close up of one of some of my cakes.These are Austrailian that I got form Captian Max. They grow huge and since I isolated a pure culture clone from a huge shroom...all I grow now are huge mushies.
This is the shelf in my closet where I keep all of the things needed neatly tucked away.

you say those are ten gallon aquariums??? i used a ten gallon aquarium and i fit four casing trays in there, three of them were done normal casing style with 2 cakes in each, and the other had a "cake sculpture" where i stacked two cakes on top of eachother, and then the same thing next to it (two cakes on top of some verm with two cakes on top of that with some more verm on top) the three casings didnt get any contams, but the sculpture did after the second flush, but i had two cakes growing neglect tek so i made them into a casing, and my friend had a B+ cake that he was growing neglect, and since most of them were aborting he gave it to me and i plopped it atop the new casing i had just made. i got over 3 oz from these twelve cakes before i threw them out (i was put on probation and didnt want to get into trouble. they were still flushing rapidly and i estimate that i wouldve had atleast 5 oz. before i was done. i also dont know how much an oz of shrooms really is. id fill up a ziploc sandwich bag and consider it an oz.) i also think that you are working waaaayyyy too hard!!!! i had my stuff hooked up to a humidifier, and a timer. the humidity was at a constant 91-94% and i had an air pump pumping in fresh air 24/7. it took no care at all except for turning on the light when i woke up, and turning it off when i go to sleep. i also had to pick the shrooms and fuck with the casings/cakes after every flush to get them going again. you must get barely any sleep!!! and you have to fuck with the perlite???? perlite is a real pain!!!! and why do you need so many shrooms???? my 3 ziploc bags was over enough for me and some friends to trip over two times a week with doses that were always over an 8th ziploc bag. with all that space you should do something better than have four aquariums with cakes!!!!! one thing that you can do is use the filter patch bags. that will get you alot of mycelium.
one plus one plus one equals three

You sound like you've got yer method pretty well worked out...
before switching to rye grain directly, I would start casing the cakes first...for practice and it will allow you to have a buffer zone. Rye is easy but can be tricky to get the feel for it.
My advice: buy a 22qt autoclave and start doing rye or wheat in quarts after doing a few casing runs with cakes first. After that you can begin to use the rye spawn to colonize dung for major major yields and a nice warm "bulk" feeling. ;)
Could you actually post complete instructions for the drying thing? I think a lot would find that really useful.

Hey jebus. did you ever move on to bulk substraits?
if i did my calculations right, you were getting almost 12 dry grams per cake. I've never heard of such high yields on pf, especially teaking nutrients out of the center.
