First Grow

Hi hi,
This is my first attempt at this new hobby. I am using the PF Tek more or less. Here are some pics of the first jars I've done.
Here are the first jars. The box with the 11 jars are all 1/2 pint jars. The box with alot of empties are all 4 ounce jars (1/4 pint) and then I have another box full of 1 pint jars, but I have just done only 1. They are a mix of B+ and South American.



I inoculated 2 jars on the 3rd, and the rest on the 4th (had originally PC'd 8 jars a week prior to receiving spores, but figured I would do them over again as they looked bad), so I just tried 2 of the 8. This is what they've done in 4 days. Both are B+




I have them in the boxes under my bed, near my heater (floor-board heater) keeps them somewhere in the neighborhood of 75ish degrees. I plan on getting a rubbermaid container (clear) and turning it upside down for my FC. Any suggestions on any type of modifications to the container to help keep humidity?
Peace

Perlite is the easiest way to go. Search the board for info about building a perlite-powered terrerium.

For 4 days growth from spores, your mycelium is taking off quickly.

Looks good from here. Decent amount of growth for it only having been 4 days.

Cool a 'bulk PF' grow, not to rag but you should look into crumble them into Hpoo. Now I know not everyone can do that, I understand. But I just hate to see someone putting the time and effort for that many PF cakes, when your so close to case them in hpoo.
But yeah the jars look good, and you don't want to cut any corners with that many cakes when it comes time for the FC.

Thanks. I've been reading about casing and have read through some of the tek's, but I just started, so I really want to run atleast these jars through doing the PF Tek (Keep It Simple Stupid), and then expand from there with experimenting.
