My very first grow attempt
    #7422780 - 09/18/07 09:07 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

This is my very first attempt at growing mushrooms.
I ordered from spores 101. great.
I am growing in grow bags from the mad season. I figured since it is my first attempt i'd try grow bags but i plan on using rye next.

I'm incubating them in a 10 gal aquarium with about 2 inches of water in it there is an aquarium heater in there that is set to 85 degrees. Also an old ice cream bucket with a weight in there to keep it from tipping over in the water as well as the 3 grow bags 2 inoculated with the John Allen strain and one with blue meanie.

After 12 days all 3 bags are showing signs of growth and i am really happy that everything is going well so far for my first time.

I want to case the bags once they are fully colonized in the same aquarium i'm incubating in.

I always grow with the mad season bags. if you want a good yield with next to no time or effort invovled thats the way to go. Also had great luck with Spores 101. i have bags on the 5th flush now. Good luck.

Your setup as a whole looks mighty iffy. I'm anti-incubator. Just throw your spawn in a cabinet above your fridge.

Don't spend money on premade spawn bags. The best and cheapest way is to learn to do everything for yourself.

There's a lot of people that have vouched for the companies thats why i chose them. I don't post a lot because i haven't grown before but i've been reading the board for more than a year. I just wanted an "idiot proof" way to grow for the first time. Less chance of contamination than doing the sterilizing myself.

There is a little bit of bleach in the water to kill the bacteria.

how can you be anti-incubating? if you live in a place where your constant room temp is 77-80, then i can understand that

but i run AC full power at 70degrees day and night
and jars seem to colonize dreadfully slow at 70degrees versus 80-82 i get in my incubator

my incubator is inexpensive, cost me next to nothing, and i feel it's close to essential

also i dunno bout you guys, but none of my fridges put off any heat, they actually seem to be pretty cold >.>
