Realistic Yield Goal?
    #5452571 - 03/28/06 07:04 PM (17 years, 10 months ago)

i spawned 3 qts. of WBS lipi yai strain to about 5 lbs. of tenn stud 50/50mix substrate. Its in a 12qt. dish tub about 4inches deep substrate depth. Ill be putting the colonized poo into a large fruting tub with perlite in the bottom and some holes for air exchange. Ill be giving some manual air exchange and some misting. I won't be using a casing layer either, because that has been my contam problem the last 2 tries. im hoping to get 8 dry ounces from 2-3 flushes. Is this realistic, too high, too low?

I don't know but could guess like everyone.

My thought is that yield is only a concern after the fact.

To compare your tek to others is valid and useful info.

Don't ever ask a question about yield, you will never get a straight answer, had to learn that the hard way.. :smile:

But.. I know you can get up to 200% B/E with mushrooms, so say you get 100% B/E, from say six pounds of substrate you will get 6 pounds of wet mushrooms. Thats roughly about 18 ounces. Say you get 50% B/E, youll have 8 ounces, and pretty sure 50% B/E is not that difficult if 250% is achievable to some.

Good Luck

When you put that tray into the tub with the perlite in the bottom. You should try elevating the tray off of the perlite by placing spacers below it. It may help boost the humidity, because the perlite that is covered by the tray sitting on it can't do it's job.

It's REALLY hard to guess yields. But honestly I think your guess is pretty high.


And ummm... 6lbs of wet mushrooms is 96 ounces wet about 9.6 dry.

Well obviously I meant dry and it was a rough estimate. HaHA you should shoot for 200% B/E, you'll have 12 wet pounds! LOL

well check out the link in my sig. That was about 12qts of poo spawned with 3 pints WBS... 4 inches of substrate in a double tub.

wet weight was ~850g off of the first flush. I don't know what to expect off of my later flushes though.

I never expected such a yeild off of my tub, but I bet that if you expect 8oz off of your casing your probably won't get it.
