About to order, could do with some advice please
    #7426928 - 09/19/07 04:54 AM (16 years, 6 months ago)

Hey, I'm currently about to order a Rye pre-sterilized grow bag and a 10cc Cambodian strain spore syringe from magicplants.co.uk *****

When the bag is fully colonized it says:
" Cut the grow bag and place contents into the container. Spray with water, but don't drown it. Replace the lid and place under the bed or on top of a computer monitor. Within a week you should see pinheads forming. If you can see even a little condensation, don't bother respraying until you have picked them."

I am wondering:

1) Is it right for me to get a Rye grow bag or should i get the grain grow bag?

2) When it is fully colonized do i take the contents out of the bag and place it into the container or just cut the bag so there can be air exchange?

3) If i was to take the contents out of the bag would i need to have a layer of perlite in the bottom for moisture?

4) I live in the UK, i was wondering where i could get a decent alcohol based cleaning agent as i don't want to leave myself open for contamination, and i don't want to go overkill and destroy everything lol?

This is my first time attempting to cultivate so sorry if there quite noobie questions, I just wish the instructions on the website were more clear.

as far as i know rye and grain are the same thing, but if your getting a grow bag i would get the rye. you can leave it in the bag it will fruit in the bag. if you want you can take it out and case it or use it as spawn with poo. If you go to www.mycopath.com they have 4lb rye bags on sale for $16.50, i'm not sure about that other site it looked like theirs were only 1 lb bags. If i were you i would order from one of the vendors they will treat you right. good luck.

don't make the same mistake as many newbs and order from a random site... order from a sponsor they'll treat you right... prices are always good and the quality is amazing... personally i'd order a syringe form ralphsters and request a free strain of the month or order from sporeworks cause they always hook me up with freebies too.

mycopath which was suggested for rye is an excellent source for any and all substrate or casing needs.

Rye is a grain.

Rye is one of the best grains that you can use.

1) Is it right for me to get a Rye grow bag or should i get the grain grow bag?

roadkill answered this well

2) When it is fully colonized do i take the contents out of the bag and place it into the container or just cut the bag so there can be air exchange?

i personally would pour it into a container and case it with 50/50+ (although some people have been having success with miracle grow moisture control lately... i haven't tried)

3) If i was to take the contents out of the bag would i need to have a layer of perlite in the bottom for moisture?

not on the bottom of that tub.. you'd put the container you poured the grain into and cased into a larger tub with 3-5 inches of damp perlite (not wet), you'd set your casing container on top of the perlite inside the bigger tub. you could also spawn to bulk if you wanted and do a couple mono tubs with a 4 lb rye bag and poo or coir.

4) I live in the UK, i was wondering where i could get a decent alcohol based cleaning agent as i don't want to leave myself open for contamination, and i don't want to go overkill and destroy everything lol?

I dunno what they've got in the UK, personally i just clean using normal cleaning agents then go over everything with bleach water right before working (about 10-20% bleach, if that)


This is my first time attempting to cultivate so sorry if there quite noobie questions, I just wish the instructions on the website were more clear.

while there are some more clear instructions. this forum isn't the place to find them, i'd suggest looking in the mushroom cultivation archive for more clear cut instructions or even look throughout the main site although anyone can submit stuff on the main site and some people submit bad info i'd trust the archive better... If you're serious about this hobby take your time and learn from everyone and use the search function, while its not always clear it's all here.

seems ohmatics monotub for grains would help you best in your situation.
NEVER order from random sites.

www.mycopath.com for grains and manure
www.ralphstersspores.com for spores
www.sporeworks.com for spores

both spore vendors i have used, both rock.

First:
A) Use Shroomery vendors. They're hand-picked, and they're generally pretty awesome--way better than mystery sites like the one you linked.

B) Read instructions on the site for help with fruiting.

Sorry to be curt, but I think these would be a much better starting point for you. If you've already got the bag, just research fruiting instructions. You should consider doing a basic casing; rye doesn't hold much moisture.

if you order from ralphs be sure to ask for free strain of the month (just fill in the second order spot choosing SOTM and $0 for price) make sure you visit http://www.ralphstersspores.com/
not ralphster.com or ralphsterspores.com, both are scams trying to rip off people using ralphs good name


if you order from sporeworks you'll likely just get hooked up with some freebies (happens to me everytime)

if you order at mycopath enter shroomery in the coupon code box for 10% off...

you should get pints from the free spore exchang europe. i'm sure there is at least one shroomery sponser that is from the uk that could take care of you. I don't know how hard it is to get a hold of rye gain in the uk, but you'd probably have better luck with wbs. if you stay on the forum and get enough posts to go to the market place there's always the free print thread.
