Do BRF/VERM jars first! Birdseed can get a bit tricky.

how many jars are you going to do
i would recomend useing both like 6 and 6 just so you can see for your own personal reference
i prefer finch seed my self but i think you should try both everyones got diff taste and comfort zones
i think they are both very easy if you want to know what i do with my finchseed pm me and ill let you know

Do PF-Tek your first time. Read the FAQ and also this! and most likely you WILL NOT fail!
Then you can move onto birdseed!

want to fail your first time?
then don't do birdseed !!!
do BRF cakes following the PF tek..... and follow it to the "T".
then move on to birdseed and grain.....and horse poo.

Birdseed is just harder cause it takes longer to germinate, you need correct water ratios and you need to be extra sterile.
You learn a lot doing brf/verm, as for sterilzing and being sterlie in your habits. Its a lot more easy going as it snot going to contam as easy.
Id say defiently go w/ the PF style cake first, and case it if you want.

why do you think we teach newbies the PF tek first ?
you are special.....most fail on birdseed a few times before getting it down pat.

I messed up with my birdseed. But my PF jars are going very well. So I'm going to stick with BRF for awhile.
Thanks for the spores Road! huggies!
