depth of poo, yeild or flushes?

I am putting together some 22 gallon rubbermaids with 3 in. of hpoo and spawning them with 4 quart jars of wbs. I was wondering if I did five or six inches of poo would it help with the yeild of each of my flushes or just give me more flushes? thanks in advance.

thanks guys, I am pasturizing a 3 inch depth right now. I was just wondering for my next tubs. Anyone done large rubbermaid tubs before? I've seen up to 4 and a half ouces pulled on the first flush on a couple grow logs. I am hoping for 3 to 4 on the first flush, is that too high of hopes for my first bulk grow? I can talk about yeilds right? sorry if I can't.

3 inches of poo in 1 foot by 1 foot of space produced 3 ounces on the first flush.

another quick question. Roadkill has said that once the poo stops smelling like ammonia, then it is ready. I picked all the dry pieces that I had but I'm sure that a couple were still slightly wet in the middle. Now, thirty minutes into the paturization, there is a slight ammonia smell. is this normal? Thanks for all the feedback.

it probably isnt leeched enough. But you can speed leech it.
Get a bucket and drill some holes in it near the bottom and some smaller ones on the bottom
then go to the tub in ur bathroom and put a whole lot of water through the tub for a long time.

If it is not leeched all the way will mushies still grow or will it mess up the whole grow? By the way I am also doing B+ and it is my second grow. same scenario!

I am not sure but I know that it makes it contam much much easyer. And I know that if its real fresh the mycelium cant handle it.

can I leech it right after it is parturized? Can I just run water over the tied off pillow case for an hour or two then ring it out and spawn it or would I have to repasturize it? Sorry for all the questions, I appreciate all the help.

Well I dont thinks this has been tried befor but why not
take the pillow case and open the top of it and run the water through the opening do it for an hour i guess I am not sure how long ur suppose to do it. Anyway then ring it out a bit and re pasturise. Are you pasturiseing in a pot?

yes, a huge canning pot. keeping it at about 170 for 45 min. is what I just did. I am running water over it right now. This could turn into an all nighter for me.

I don't think an hour is neccessary, though I will probably do it just to be sure. But if rain can leach the poo I doubt that rain water would equal even 20 minutes of constant tub water pressure. But before I keep doing this I am going to run to the store for energy drinks and ciggarettes. Thanks mike, I will probably post a few more comments or questions later on, hope to see you later, but if not, thanks for all the advice.

I'm back, with another question of course. If I took poo that was not dried all the way and put it in a rubbermaid tub with holes in the bottom and leached it for acouple hours would the poo be ready for pasturization. Could I skip the drying process all together? just a thought, but would it work? Instead of waiting up to weeks for it to dry just to get it wet again, could I just take a couple hours and leach it then paturize it. thanks in advance.

You can pasturise when its wet lol i mean when u put it in the pot what happens? it gets wet. It will just lower the water temp and u will have to get it up again and it takes a lil longer to get it even temps that is all.

I'm talking about poo that I have drying on a tarp in my garage. It will take forever to dry, and it is probably not leached to an acceptable standard. Can I just leach it right now really good and the pasturize it? if I can that will save alot of time waiting.

nice lookin mushies bongtoke. Anyone have an answer to the question of can I just speede leach the poo real good instead of letting them dry, hten paturize them. I'm a noob to this whole poo thing so please correct me if I don't undertand the concept right. thanks
Also I just spawned my tub with my wbs last night. The poo looks and feels pretty dry, but when I squeeze it a little water runs down my hand. Is it normal for the poo to feel sort of fluffy and dry but still squeeze out water? I just don't want to have too dry of poo.
One more thing, is it also a good Idea to spay the top with a hydrogen peroxide and water mixture to help with contams? thanks for all the help.

For the leaching/ pasturizing thing: you don't exactly ned them to dry after you leach it because, what you do when you pasturize it is using hot water to kill bad bacter/ keep good ones.... I'm not quite sure, but i think im correct....

You only want a few drips of water to drip out of your horse poo when squeezed by hand.
Fluffy and yet moist is what you want!~

No it's not a good idea to spray the top with hydrogen peroxide and water mixture to help with contams during the spawning faze.
Just spawn your wbs into the horse poo and let it colonize!~
good luck to ya!~
post some pictures if you can.

am going to get a camera after this harvest. Got to have one for my summer internship for school anyways. In the end I will have a pretty kick ass set up to show off. Seven different strains in seven rubbermaid tubs. B+, texas, tasmanian, pf classic, lipa yai, golden teacher, and Z-strain. Should be pretty sweet if it all works out. All the strains are colonizing right now. Can't wait!! thanks for all the help.

mikeownow and anybody else who has gotten multiple ounce flushes off non bulk poo grows, how much spawn did you use on average. Like that 3 ounce 1 foot by 1 foot. How much spawn mike?

I think that the amount of spawn has more to do with colonization times to reduce contam risk. I'm just a noob also, so I would like to hear from some more experienced ones also. I think the standard ratio is something like 1 jars per 4 pounds of poo, could be wrong though.

2 quarts 2 5 lbs. I think it had to do with my water content. It took over 2 weeks to colonise all the pooh but it did that.
I just got my first flush from 7 lbs and it was nothing compared to my other grrr

hey mike, I was looking at one of the theads that you made last night that showed your tub in the box. You had an air pump running into the tub if I am correct. My question is did you have a humidifier or something to keep the humidity up? Or did the lid being on keep the humidity where you needed it? thanks
