k guys 1st time makin sure im ready for fruiting.
    #7216508 - 07/24/07 12:44 AM (17 years, 5 months ago)

K so by everything i have read here is what im going to do. Please any advice is welcomed and probably necessary :smile:

and it seems theres a lot of mention of the pf-tek however i chose to follow this tek after looking at them all http://www.shroomery.org/8410/Simple-Cubensis-Growing-Technique
so anyway i have mycelium growing in 11/12 jars and theyre doing great.
The only difference between the tek and what i did is i used 1 pints instead of half, this seemed more practical for yield size (i am a patient person as i have cultivated mj before:thumbup:).

for fruiting i am going to dunk my cakes for around 14 hrs or so.
I have a rather large storage bin (rubbermaid style u know?) im going to use damp perlite.

Question 1: does it matter whether or not i dunk in fridge temps or room temp?

Question 2: should i use foil, a screen or just set cakes directly on perlite?

anything else you guys see as flawed please let me know, i usually have good success with cultivation and i hope to continue this with my favorite (mushies).

Q1.I would dunk in the fridge since it lessens bacterial build up but i have dunked on my kitchen counter top and haven't had problems just make sure that after you dunk you wash them under the faucet to get rid of any bacteria left on them from the dunk.

Q2.Use a lid or foil so that they dont sit directly on the perlite.



Oh and that link is basically a recipe for the pf tek.

thx bro, when u say wash do you mean like with soap or anti-bacterial? wont that kill the mycelium or do you just mean to rinse them off?

No need for soap or anything just run em under the tap for a few seconds to remove the bacteria build up.GL

oh hey i'd really advise against using foil, because that may cause shrooms to grow downwards into the perlite. foil often reflects light, making shrooms grow in that direction.

i've not sen any down growth, only up growth on my cakes, they all sit on foil.

From what i've read, mycelium grows down if there's nothing between the cake and the perlite, the reason the fruits come from the bottom near the foil is because the humidity levels are higher near the foil.
