Spent several hours looking for a pressure cooker in store but only found ones without gages.
Grabbed one off ebay like this http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=260189228548
AA seem to be the best, used but hopefully still in good order.

Until PC arrives I've done microwave experiment.
Got some spores but microwaving WBS probably won't work too well so I'll see in about a week if anything comes out of that.

Couldn't find a Martha closet, some similar but with breathable fabric which isn't too good. Was then going to make one out of PVC and plastic sheeting but came across this http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_detail.jsp?FOLDER<&gt;folder_id=1408474396672632&PRODUCT<>prd_id=845524443119871&bmUID=1197259180965&assortment=primary&fromSearch=true
Its a domed green house rack, seems to be good but bottom seems opened. If I'm not mistaken the idea is that the environment is contained so might have to tape up the bottom so on.

Canadian market is crappy for humidifiers even walmart had a selection of 2. Are the ones that have a huge fan always wick ones? I'll try to find a vicks one but only came across the baby cool mist http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=2774069&kw=vicks&origkw=vicks&parentPage=search&f=Taxonomy/TRUSCA/2510384

If you go to your local Loblaws Superstore I've seen the Vicks coolmist in the pharmacy area. I've also seen them in the thrift stores where they can be had for about $5 to $10.

Well found the last sunbeam cool mist humidifier at another wally but it seems to make more noise than it should. Is that normal? It doesn't seem like it's part of the process but more like the motor isn't lubricated kind of noise.

Checked two thrift stores for things but they had basically nothing. On the plus side I did find a dsl speedstream 5200 modem for 3 bucks, no AD>DC but have spares at home.

Also picked up a Holmes hepa filter more for the cat and personal health but should also help in lessing contaminations.

Went to several canadiantires to get a greenhouse but they are out of season so located somewhere in the back where they couldn't be accessed easily. Might order online if I find a decent deal since shipping is the hurting part.

Used a clear contain to observe/learn and see how fast mycelium would go to the top. Had too much overlay but no pinning scraped the top might have been a mistake. It's now 10days in FC and has tones of side pinning due to clear contain and just one guy on top. Took it out of contain for the side guys to have some room to grow.
(WBS casing with CocoCoir/Vermiculate 50/50.)


This first grow was rushed to learn from my mistakes and jar wasn't fully colonized but more near 80%. But not seeing contaminations.

Did a g2g transfer from 250ml jar to a huge massive jar ~3L but I think that failed since not noticing growth there after a week. Odd.

Will do g2g but into smaller containers once the jars are almost 1 week pasted full colonization.

Also will be looking for larger jars since 250ml for grain isn't worth it.


Notice just the one guy growing on top and plenty on the sides.
