First time Grow
    #7574744 - 10/29/07 10:03 PM (16 years, 3 months ago)

OK, So this is my first grow ever, so bare with me if i have some stupid questions. I Will try to make this a Grow log as well as keep my questions going.

First of all i have 2 Different strains going. I have Cambo's and Na Muang. I have 2 jars that are about 80 to 85 percent colonized. and the rest are well on there way.
The question i have for all of you is the use of my materials i will list what i have available and i was hoping if you guys could give me some ideas for Fruiting chambers, casings and such. I really don't have much more money in the "myco Fund" so work with me lol.

Also i work alto and go to school at night so i need this to be semi self automated. On a normal day i only get to stop home once in between work and school.

Supplies

~10 gallon aquarium
~8$ aquarium pump w/ tubing
~bag of perlite
~aquarium lid with light
~peat moss
~Vermiculite
~i have a couple metal pans for casein
~2 spare tubs with lids. Decent size
~a heat pad
~Tyvek and Polyfill
~12 1/2 pint jars(empty)
~11 Quart jars (empty
~WBS ( i tried to do a quart jar but got pink contam after 2 days)
~wire mesh

See the problem is that i only have limited room space for fruiting space and i need to keep it sort of hidden (roommates don't know). Also my house is a bit chilly.

My original idea was to use the 10 gal tank and fruit in there but I'm slowly acquiring more and more pf jars lol. Knocked up 10 more today bringing total to bout 34 lol. This hobby is really addictive and i haven't even got my first flush yet. Plus I'm concerned about the humidity levels and stuff in my fc's. Please give me some advice.

I will post pics of my setup and jars and lcs on Wednesday to really get this grow log up and going.

Those questions are easily answered by reading the teks in the mushroom cultivation section, teks on fruiting chambers, humidification etc.

Dear Budzeno,

You do have quite a lot in the way of supplies .....

Decide how you want to go about this .... and go for it.

To me, your biggest issues are: STEALTH and AUTOMATION.

I have done a number of stealth (in the closet) grows and 'NOISE' for me has been a concern. For example, an aquarium pump vibrating on a shelf produces more noise than I like.

For stealth and automation and simplicity I would recommend the 'shotgun' style FC.

Good luck MAN. The tough job is wading through all the info. and deciding what to do.

Rico
