My Future Grow.
    #7435537 - 09/21/07 07:08 AM (16 years, 4 months ago)

Right before i start everything i have a few quick questions i need answering.

firstly; do i have everything i need:

pressure cooker, jars, tub (with holes etc), perlite, verm, brown rice flour, spores, spring water (locally collected :wink:), mister, thermometer, gloves, alcohol wipes..  i think that is everything.

Secondly; how important is the glove box?

Thirdly; after i collect my first harvest (touch wood), how easy is it to collect the spores and recolonise. (a link to an appropriate post would be perfect).

Thanks in advance guys and thanks for all the help ive recieved through my lurking!

First off congrats! Sounds like you have everything you need to get started. I've never used a glove box, still air sprayed down with lysol works fine for me. To answer your third question, look here: http://www.shroomery.org/26/Spore-Prints-Syringes

Hope that helps ya man and good luck!

sounds good!!

i cant wait.. although i fear my keeness will sabotage my grow. fingers crossed for the best.

will the shroom print from a single mushroom cover the inoculation (if that is the right word) of several jars?

Yes. you can make 4-10 syringes depending on print size, enough to do dozens of jars. Or you could make an lc and do hundreds of jars! Here are several teks on liquid cultures (lc): http://www.shroomery.org/24/Mycelium-Culture

Feed stores have em. you can also use a marinade injecter from wal-mart. The sponsors here also have em.

1 thing i dont see on ur list is a hydrometer to measure humidity in ur fruiting chamber, cakes really need 95-100% humidity plus a nice spray bottle capable of producing a fine mist (not essential if u can keep humidity high).

U can also re-use spore syringes u may already have, sterilising is simple.

Glove box isnt essential but i highly recomend it as a further step in keeping things sterile, particularly when doing spore prints and making syringes. I just got 3 contaminated jars out of 4 in a row, they all from the same syringe but i doubt it was my syringe as 1 is growing strong. I know that they got contamed from inoculating in open air.

A glove box is handy if u want to progress to petri dishes aswell and for cloning.

good luck in ur grow, i have 1 cake so far in the fruiting chamber and its been so exciting, i think i have been lucky so far as i have not got a pressure cooker yet (this could also be my problem with 3 contamed jars though every jar before that, about 6, has not contamed though)

pay carefull attention to the teks, i know everyone says follow it to the letter but research a bit on mosture content, i found that my first batches were too wet following the teks so now i only add half the water and judge the texture, if it looks to dry i can simply add more. Better a little dry than wet this can slow growth and lead to contams (as shown by my first jars taking almost a month to fully colinise) my recent jars are now colinising in about 2 weeks now.

keep at it, look through other teks and hopefully u will progress to better substrates like rye and wbs which i plan on.

i have thought about the humidity in my fruiting chamber but i understand it is hard to increaser/decrease humidity without the use of humidifier so therefore i have no choice but to go with the flow and hope all works out as planned.

am i right in saying that??

yeah there not that expensive, im about to pick up a prestige high dome 6l guy which will satisfy my needs. I think i should get at 8 half pint glass's in there which is plenty to get a few cases going every few months.

im picking it up for £35 from argos and it has 3 pressure settings, 8 10 and 15

lol, i went to walgreens and asked them if they had 10ml syringes

they said, is that how much insulin you need?

and remembering something i read from shroomery i said no, it is for small parts engine lubrication

and the woman repeated what i said and laughed at me

i bought tiny syringes and realized they were useless, as these were for injecting into the human body.

so i threw them away.
