fist bulk spawn any advice???
    #6759134 - 04/07/07 08:47 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

so i bought some 10 gallon ziploock bags and pasteurized a 50/50 cp straw mix.i am spawning 7 qt jars of cracked corn to it i made one sizable hole with poly and cinch the bag very tight stuffed it in the bottom of my incubator which seems to average around 80-82 deg.how longshould i leave it alone and let it regain it self confidence and colonize the bag ad from the bag do i lay it straight in the bottom of my monotub and whats a good casing depth with large bulk grow it is 35 gallon monotub and id say the bag will fil the tub about 5 inches.

Hmm, advice:

a) colonize bulk tubs at room temperature

b) make sure you pasteurize and not sterilize the bulk sub. as this promotes bacterial bloom

c) a 4"-5" depth is ideal.

thanks roachman so i should yank it out of the incbatorthen???it is pesh strain dont know if that matters.and yes i pasteurized in oven at 170-180 for two hours then let it sit in oven till cooledi think this should be proper pas. and it was at field capacity so moisture content should be ok no bad smels from cracked corn only that yummy in the tummy shroom smell mmmmmmmmmmmmm cant wait.an as ar as in monotub right on the bottom or do i need a mojsturizing medium under it as well as the casing?/

Some people use a reservoir material underneath, but it is unnecessary.

Yes, I would take it out of the incubator and keep it at room temperature (closer to 72-74 degrees).

not doubting in any way but wouldnt the pinset be better if i went from incubator to monotub just for the temp change like i said only asking not doubting??

Cold shocking doesn't matter in cubensis.

Fresh air exchange given to 100% colonized substrate is what makes for an even pinset.

Umm, I think you could let it colonize...out of the bag...inside the monotub.

However, if it is molded to the bottom of the tub it won't really matter much later when you try to dunk it, etc.

If it doesn't fit to the bottom of the monotub then I wouldn't let it colonize more than 3-4 days before spreading it out in the bottom of the monotub.

how long should i dunk for i only ask cause there are so many opinions out there so its hard to know what to do being a noob.and its not molded so should i take it right to the monotub and the hell with the bag all together

Probably wouldn't hurt to transfer it now.

Woh, I just noticed this: 50/50 cp/straw
That's COW poo, right?

You don't dunk until after the 1st flush.

What will you be casing it with?

I'm not that familiar with straw substrates, but I've never had that much moisture loss in a monotub that I had to put plastic over it.

If you're doing that and applying pressure to make an even layer then go for it.

The pressure could have a slight negative effect on the rate of colonization though.

Nope. Just put the entire mono-tub into a black garbage bag to keep any fresh air exchange from occuring through the polyfill holes.

This will still allow for gas exchange that will promote healthy growth.

awesome dude thanks for the advice how long do you suggest before removing the contractors bag from around the tub and 1 inch casing sound good enough to you to produce some nice sized fruits????????

Approximately 10 days; make sure the entire top layer is well colonized.

A 1/2" casing layer is better.
