Hi Roadkill, I noticed your comment on the aluminum pans: I started using the same type of loaf pans for casings because they have a good depth, especially the Jumbo size. I also noticed problems with them holding up, the bottoms would sag out and get holes in them! Exactly what type of plastic trays are you using now? I like using a 3-5 inch total depth on my casings but can't find plastic trays that are deep enough... Seedling trays are not deep or strong enough for the job. Let us know what brand or type you use. thanks! This was very informative as well as encouraging.

Yeah Dude! It should not smell like doo doo....eeeeww! At least not much. The turds you selected may have been a little fresh on the inside. On the other hand, if the mycelium will colonize it, you may be in good shape anyway

Sorry Sillvyr that I haven't gotten back to you sooner.
My son is with me for vacation......so I have been busy.
yeah....small black mortor mixing tubs are the route to go. if you can find the really small ones.....I found them in a supply store here in town. the ones i found are about the same size as the Alum bread loaf pans.

7-12-02 Updates have been added to the first post. if you go look I have them marked.
I'm Real Happy with the growth!
They are ready to be put in the fruiting chamber in the morning. Except KC casing #4....its dragging ass....I'll let it colonize for a few more days.
So basically it took 6 days to colonize the poo. Right on schedule!

Hi Roadkill,
Thanks for replying, I'm sure you are very busy but enjoying having time with your son.
I just got started again after returning from my journey of 3 weeks to China, and I'm looking ahead to get some new things to get before my new set of jars finishes up and has to be cased, so I appreciate the info about the plastic mortar tubs. I can't wait to try them out with the South American's I just started. I have really enjoyed this grow log of yours!
the trays look great

well it shouldn't be too dry. how long did you pasturize it? how long did you wait after you pasturized it...the draining part....before you spawned your substrate into it?

sillvyr,
yw
I hope you enjoyed your trip to China. I was in China in 1982....Hong Kong. My friends and I snuck into main land China and ran around for a few hours. We were in the Military.....so they didn't want us going in....what they didn't know didn't hurt....The Chinese didn't seem to care......looking back now....we were very stupid.....young and dumb and full of cum! lolz
Your gonna love the South Americans. They rip through the horse poo......they also rip through a casing layer. So be careful with the S.A's.
I'm glad your enjoying the poo log! It's been fun making it.

i pastuerized it for about 2 hours, but only about 45 minutes or less was at optimal temperature, i let it drain for a few hours.
