Bulk spawning Q
    #7084377 - 06/23/07 05:44 PM (16 years, 9 months ago)

Quick question really.

Got some spawn I'm about to use. However I wasn't sure about whether or not I should pasteurize the coco-coir (using it in the sub.).

is it alright to pasteurize it with h/poo? Or would it be better to sterilize it...say in a quart jar(PCED of course) or something.

However, my PC only goes to 5psi hahahah. Is that sufficient if I have to indeed sterilize the coco-coir?

TIA

don't sterilize substrates or casing mixtures
pasteurize away.

Pasteurize, don't sterilize. This has been covered in detail hundreds of times already. Nobody wants to type it all over again when it can be easily found with a search. Bulk substrates should never be sterilized.

Don't open this can of worms again .:thumbdown:

I , along with many others here , do indeed sterilize casing mixes . Been doing it for years now with no problems , just to let ya know .:grin:

And while we're on it , I also know of lots of peeps who sterilize their sub . Those peeps who make up those poo bags with grain and stuff , sterilize then inoculate with LC and let it go . Seems to work .

Can't really make statements like that , "DON"T STERILIZE SUBSTRATES OR CASING MIXTURES " when indeed quite a few here DO and have great successes .

Isn't a Wronguy bag a bag of poo and other goodies that gets sterilized?

Well, I'll have to challenge that. I have sterilized all my substrate for the past year. But... if you are talking about the monster farms then maybe I'll agree.
