low-maintenance fruiting?
#7513663 - 10/13/07 09:27 PM (16 years, 3 months ago) |

my boyfriend and i are away at college, but we want to do a grow. i DO NOT want to risk growing in my dorm. so here's what we want to do. he has his car here, and is willing to travel home each weekend to tend to a grow. we would inject and colonize a bag at his house, and then fruit at his house. the problem is, we could only be home once a week. is there any kind of neglect tek or EASY to assemble/use automated system out there?
thanks in advance!

There are tons of way to create constant humidity/air exchange. If you get a humidifier setup, you might have to fill the water thing more than once a week though.

Get a green house and a cool mist and have it come on for 5 minutes ever 3.5 hours.
And leave the zippers open.

fruit inside of bags. they colonize and fruit at normal room temps. easy as it can get. no fruiting chamber needed, no worries.

Sweet man, those results looks great! Could we get some more details. How do you maintain humidity? How often do you mist/FAE?

you don't. spawn your WBS or whatever to some HPOO or Coir or other bulk substrate and seal it and then leave it. it'll colonize and then fruit, no misting, fanning nothing.

no FAE is needed. no misting is needed. no maintenace besides dunking or misting between flushes.
There is NO SPAWNING involved. the bags can and should be directly inoculated with liquid culture.
and as for the Mushbox Compost Bags: those are my bags that I used to sell to them, but no longer do. we had a falling out you could say and now the only place they can be had is eBay. But it's a good thing because now the price is much lower...

can't argue with results...

depends on what you call a mycobag.
but yes, my signature substrate bags will work with spores. it's just not the best idea in the world, but it does work. they have been specifically formulated to germinate spores.

It does not stink but it does not smell good, and its not a strong smell, just open your windows and then after the smell will be gone, if someone came in your house and you were doing it they would notice the smell but not be able to tell what it is.
What you do is u get a big big big pot the bigger the better, this is now your poo pot for poo. Fill it about 3/4 the way with water heat to 180 useing a candy thermomiter and the take a pilowcase of near dry or dry poo and put it in there and turn the stove burner off and put a lid on it, the lid will retain most smell so it hardly will smell at all, after its been in there put on some gloves and take it out and put it in the sink, this is a bit hard to do without spilling but if u take ur time and think logicaly about what you are doing you can avoid a spill. Then ring it out in the sink and dump the pot out outside somewere or down the sinnk but be carfull not to spill, Wring the poo out by hadn I use these rubber gloves with a cloth layer inside and feel no burning. SOme kinda water proff industrial glove. Wring it out and put it in a dish washing tub 2 stacked together with tin foil in between. and then cover with tin foil. Cool spawn colonies case fruit.

here, this post illustrates what you're talking about a bit better. slightly different but still a reliable technique.
mixing pasteurized horse manure and colonized grains in filter patch bags and letting it fruit does work. just not as well as the way that I do it.

whats the point of telling us how great your substrate is, and showing us all these great pics, and then saying "oh yea, im not at all interested in helping you guys achieve these results"

there's nothing stopping you from making your own perfect substrate.
what I do with my substrate is my business. this substrate is under contract with a new company for it's sale, I am not allowed to give out the recipe.
what fun would that be anyway?
start experimenting! do some research.
if you're not happy with your own results, then do something about it. don't just ask for a handout, actually do something about it.
like I did.

nope, there's a much bigger difference.

hey, dont get me wrong, im very impressed with your results, and i recognize that youve been workin hard for a long time to get em, im just sayin, you probably learned alot from people here on the board, its not a handout, its sharing information, what the board is about... it just seems weird to me to not share the proportions of a mixture of things alot of people use anyway, or at least say that your using something we havent thought of......it seems like even if it wasent under contract to a company you wouldnt share it, a bit like your gloating
anyway, i dont want to sound like a a dick or anything, im not tryin to be, just a little envious, i guess....but ive learned alot from your old posts and appreciate what youve been doin.... kudos on your awesome substrate, your right that it is yours to do with what you like....its inspirational, now ill have more drive to mix up my own blends
quick question, would the substrate work just as well in a monotub? or is it tuned simply for bag usage?

it works amazingly well in monotubs.
I give plenty back to the community. this year I will author many pictorials on many subjects that will help many people. I choose where to give back and where not to give back. that's just me. I'm a love em or hate em kind of guy. sorry.
anyway, again... yes, they work great for monotubs. the stack n' view tubs I use fill up with 3 bags in them.
they work great for trays and greenhouses as well. you don't have to fruit in the bag, I just like how easy it is. once the substrate colonizes, crumble it and dump it into anything you want, it'll perform just as well in all arenas.

complaining doesn't bother me so much. if would have called me a bunch of names, or a liar, I'd get a little bothered, otherwise not so much.
that pictorial is h-u-g-e and will impress many. but it's far from done. soooo much photo editing and whatnot. I'm not very patient at it either, so it'll take me a good long time. that's why I said within the year, not within the month.
call it what you want... but here's some second flush pictures:
all are from second flushes:





alright, I guess that's enough of that...

i would be interested to see some pics of that sub. in a monotub, just on account of how shrooms fruited in bags seem to be a bit impeded by the sides of the bag, and get all curled up instead of gettin big and straight....just if ya happen to have some layin around

monstermitch can i ask you one more question? how do you get FAE into your bags when it's fruiting? do you just leave it alone, cut slits, or squeeze the bag?

hey monstermitch, what are the typical yields from these signature spawn bags? nothing fancy, just multispore to lc to bags. are these the exact size bags available on ebai? how many pound/quarts are they?
looks pretty sweet...super low maintenance, more so than monotubs even.
what wud happen if mex-a was used in these bags? stones or fruits?
thanks!

typical is about 4 dry oz's over 3 flushes.
not sure about the mex-a, I wouldn't even bother trying. I'd stick to grain for that.
they're just under 5lbs each. about 18 cups of substrate I believe.
and yes.

I always got almost 3 ounces from each dish tub of my 100% horse poo on the first flush, 2nd flush was always half as big. Never bother with 3rd or 4rth

don't buy the ultimate, get the signature. the ultimate is junk. you could make better stuff on your own.
I tried 6 of them (the ultimate), just to try it, and was heavily dissapointed.
I'll contact them... if you send a comment, you may get something... ? I'll try for ya.

I can vouch for this statement. MM has helped me go from complete beginner to an intermediate home grower. I use his bags because I don't want to go through the mess of making the substrate. That's the path I've chosen. Works for me.
I wouldn't be nearly as successful a grower if it weren't for good ole MonsterMitch.

That is absurd. I think I will probably purchase these some time in the not too distant future.
I have terrible skills at being sterile. When I was doing micropropagation for horticulture, I managed to somehow contaminate 75% of my petri dishes while using sterile gloves, equipment, liberal use of bleach, and under a lamellar flow hood. >_<

can these signature bags be inoculated with spore solution instead of lc?
how much spore solution is recommended?
any differences, besides time for spore germanation?
thanks!

the signature bags can be inoculated with spores. usually 5-10cc is best.
soon though, they'll only take about 1cc of spores.... there's developments on the horizon.

not sure...
it may be quite a while... it's like coca cola re-formulating their recipe. it may even take years. so don't worry.....
but then again it could only take weeks or months... nothing that will change anytime immediately.
