You should write up a Bucket 'o Fungus tek




I do plan on it - just very busy at the moment... (and a tad lasy) :laugh:

Its really a great way for the beginner cultivator to go semi bulk, very very very cheaply and hassle free.

Ok, heres some more pics - these are 4 buckets of PE6 (clone) -



And only four buckets yeilded this -



Which dried to just over 6 oz. Crazy...

Very nice _OttO_! I've been preparing to do a similar setup with a 3L pitcher like this one that I used to dunk my cakes. Got cakes going in two pitchers just like that right now but w/ no holes...think next time'll have to be a casing w/ holes.

Here's some pics of the buckets with the shower cap on -

When your substrate is colonising and the casing pinning, you can leave the cap closer to the substrate to increase humidity a bit -



When your fruits are maturing you can pull it up to suck in some fresh air and give them room to mature -



The shower cap acts like a "lung" where by pulling it up or pushing it down you can suck in or expel air through the micropore covered holes, therefore an easy way to fan your buckets if you feel the need to, and the air is also filtered.

Although if you have an electric fan in the room pointing roughly in the direction of the buckets you dont need to do this.

Nice pics mate! Good to see you finally posting about your ingeneous bucket tek.  :thumbup:

After seeing your success with the buckets last year, I finally decided to give it a go. I got the 80c buckets from bunnings, the $2 4-pack shower caps from coles and $1.80 micropore tape. My first trial bucket is just starting to pin, so hoping for a nice flush.



The conditions inside there are just right. The little buggers are even growing off the sides of the bucket. :tongue:


So cheap, so easy, so prolific. Have to give you 5 shrooms for the bucket o'fungus otto-tek.:mushroom2::mushroom2::mushroom2::mushroom2::mushroom2:

Unreal man! Looks great, only thing you may have a problem with is side pinning - the plastic lets through a lot of light.

Buy some black tape from bunnings (about $2 a roll) - and wrap that around the bottom to above the line of your substrate before you start next time.

What did you use for a substrate and casing layer?

Make sure you put up a pic when its complete - looking great so far...!

Okay, so I thought I'd add a few photos. Here's a series taken almost 24hours apart for the last few days. Question is, I'm going away in less than 24 hours for almost 50 hours. Should I harvest the largest mushrooms or just wait until I return home?

Okay, so I decided to harvest prior to leaving as one of the veils had broken. Here's what I ended up with:


and here they are drying on newspaper:


The caps are incredibly small for such long mushrooms and very different to the other PF Classic mushrooms I grew in summer. I wonder if it's the low ambient temperatures? They're still not cracker dry, but will post a final yield when they are.

Managed 16.5g dry. The next flush is much larger and almost ready to harvest. This time I will leave until they look bootiful :laugh:

The second flush has been harvested, one was a little more advanced than the rest and he was picked last night.

Here's the pictures:

Contams aren't a major issue when the substrate is fully colonised anyway, BUT, its even less of an issue when the holes are covered - and this stops the fungus gnats setting in.... Since moving to buckets I have never had a problem with gnats.

In cased you missed it, here is a pic from an uncased bucket of PE6 (clone) -
