Spawnbags or Jars?
    #5642248 - 05/17/06 03:26 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

Just wanted to ask whats your personal preference as far as sterility goes, spawn bags, or jars? Or for any other reason is one better than the other? Also, after reading through the FAQ's a couple times, One is not sure which would be a better route, setting up a humidifier for casings, or using a layer of perlite at the bottom of a tub containing multiple casings. Any information and advice is appreciated, and one hopes to be sharing one's grow log soon. :smile:

Oh BTW one will be using rye berries as a substrate, soaked, simmered, then PC'ed.

The benefit of using bags is that you can get alot more substrate into them. Make sure you do some research before trying with bags. The biggest problem is getting the moisture content wrong and getting slow or stalled growth.

jars for small amounts of grain. Bags for large amounts of anything.

If you're doing casings, you'll want the cool mist humidifier. Perlite humidification leads to stale air. Casings commonly are plagued by green and cotton mold. Fresh air will help fight this from happening.

You can get by if you fan a lot, but who wants to do that?

Fuck all that. Spawn your substrate to poo, coir or a mixture of both. After that, polyfil and a couple rubbermaid tubs is all you need:
