PF tek
    #6545856 -

Been a while since I've been in this forum so put up with it :tongue:

I know this belongs in the growlog forum but it seems more would see it here that can use it. That and I?m sure most have seen it already but maby somebody can use this to help them out.

Grow Log
Tek : PF
Strain : South American [SA]
Spores : Came from homemade prints. 36 total jars to be injected.
Substrate :Brown Rice Flour [BRF] and Vermiculite [Verm]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10:15 PM 3/4/03 : Project is started. Jar prep is just putting small holes in the lids for the spore syringe and then taping them closed until inoculation. Tape used is the standard black electrical tape. First batch of jars is mixed. The mix used is 2 parts verm, 1 part water, and 1 part brf.  [ This mix is the max fruiting formula by PF.] Mix is put into 1/2 pint canning jars lightly, not packed in, and left it airy. Put substrate in until it reaches the threads of the jar, then add dry verm the rest of the way.
Jars are PCd at 10psi or 240f for a period of 45 minutes. Then jars were left to sit overnight to cool.

2:54 AM 3/19/2003 : Tape removed from the holes today and coffee filters put over the top of the jars for added protection. Holes were opened so the CO2 in the jars could escape. I gave 12 jars to a friend who kept fucking up. 24 jar?s about 75%done.

<a href="/forums/files/040103-23/89166-Pic_4.jpg" target="_blank"></a>

12:13 PM 3/22/2003 : Well it?s Saturday and the jars will probably be done by the 25th. So it was 36 jars. 12 were given to a friend, 24 done by Tuesday.

10:26 PM 3/23/2003 : 15 jars were done enough to put into dunk. I dunk and cold shock before birthing and after every flush.  The other 9 jars have a spot the size of a pea that has to be covered so I?ll do those on the 25th.

4:57 PM 3/27/2003 : 5 More cakes birthed today, 4 left going to do them tomorrow or  3/29/2003

3:58 PM 3/29/2003 : Well I lost another cake. My wife?s little 1 cake pod made from a 2 liter and a small fish pump and a little geolite used up her last cake so I gave her a SA to grow. The last 3 are in the cold shock dunk.
So the total is 36 jars done all colonized with no contams. 12 given to a friend, 1 to the wife, 23 mine

12:08 PM 3/30/2003 : Last of jars put in 

12:02 PM 3/31/2003 : The first 15 cakes are pinning nicely and some have shrooms coming from the bottom.

1:02 AM 4/4/2003 : Took the first flush from four of the cakes. More will be done later today.

thanks for reposting this, i hadn't found it yet and I like that incorporates newer techniques witht he old pf... I am in the midst of my first pf and its good to see a success using varations I had decided on... everyone says "RTFM" but a lot of the pf teks out there seem kinda dated compared to the stuff going on on this site, so it's cool to see it... lookin forward to seeing more like it

Cakes have some benefits...they look cool and youd on't have to mess with casing layers. They're also very easy to do.

Yeah, I really don't mind cakes at all. I started out crumbling cakes and casing them. It grew a lot of mushrooms, but they were all relatively small.

I then birthed 4 cakes, dunk and rolled, and got more (by weight) mushrooms than my casing, by far.

I have some BRF spawned to coir then cased that is pinning right now, and I look foreward to seeing how that goes. So far though, just birthing cakes is a great way to get pretty good yields without a PC.
