i have read up, im going by the double tub tek.. thats exactly what it says, ---------- Once you are complete, case the colonized substrate. I prefer the 50/50+ mix. This can be found here.
It is very important to note that the tubs should only be opened to case and to harvest. There will be no misting or manually fanning. The only exception to this rule is when the double tubs are placed in a room that has stagnant air during the fruiting phase. If this is the case, you can use a personal size, oscillating fan to move air around the room. Do not point the fan directly at the tub, as you will dry out the casing and/or your growing mushrooms.
Once you have cased the substrate, it is time to incubate again for 5 days by placing back into the room where it began and placing the trash bag back on top. You will do no patching during the incubation phase for the casing. The substrate will colonize the casing layer evenly and you?re ready to fruit.
You will see a bit of condensation on the sides of the container after the incubation of the casing layer. This is desired and will help in later flushes.
Depending on where you have your containers, you may need to place them in an area that has indirect sunlight. I place my tubs in my bathtub and crack my blinds. The course of the sun?s natural rotation takes care of my lighting needs and affords about 12-14 hours of light. I also use a small personal size, oscillating fan in the room to move air around, but it is not required if air is coming in from an adjacent room.
At no time will you open the tubs, until the harvest. If you want to see the mushrooms growing, look through the top container. In about a week, you will start to see pins.--
-------------- You will do no patching during the incubation phase for the casing. The substrate will colonize the casing layer evenly and you?re ready to fruit.
does that mean I don't patch for that specific grow jarrod?

Medo said: Yeah, no, no, and no. Sorry, read up more if you believe all of that.
"read up more"
I really think you should take your own advice on this one....seriously.
Incubating at room temp is fine, and let it fully colonize the poo, don't just fruit.
This is the correct way:
"Jarroddupont:
-Spawn to poo -cover and let colonize -drop temps to fruiting (back to 70 or so, they'll rise from colonization) -case and let colonize case material -patch and FRUIT "
Follow the teks and not medo's "advanced mycology techniques" and you should be fine.
