How many grams?
    #7890590 - 01/16/08 09:56 PM (16 years, 16 days ago)

Hiya, I was just wondering about how many grams(or even pounds?) of mushrooms would you get out of just 6 1/2 pint substrate jars?

what do you mean 1/2 pint substrate jar? A brf/vermiculite jar? Or a 1/2 pint of colonized wbs? Or a 1/2 pint of colonized rye.

I would think that 6 1/2 pints would get you close to 2 pounds dry once all said and done

Too many variables too answer your question.

Some say each cake will produce 1-1.5 gram dry.

But I've had one of my cakes flush dry into 4 grams cracker dry, of course my flush weighed 49 grams wet(from the single cake).

It all depends on nature and nurture, if you follow your tek and you keep your cakes in the right growing/fruiting conditions you should be happy with your results.

PS it also depends on your substrate, I use WBS to fruit cakes(not stepped up to casings just yet)..what exactly do you plan on using?

im lost, you show me 6 cakes producing 2 pounds dry and ill show you mermaid pussy pics. Even if you had grains that is still a stretch id think.

and i think the other people answered what you meant. But word for word the answer to your question......

Ok thanks guys, just one more question I no 1/8 is like 3.5 grams so what would 1/8 be dry?

At best .0125 grams.. What a trip that would be huh.......

Uhh, do elaborate, please? I don't think we should give out bum information or blow smoke up peoples asses like some grow kits IE "will produce 2 lbs of dry mushrooms within X amount of time", BS. If you have a logical explanation for your post I would like to hear it. Unless you meant spawning them, but I think the OP was just fruiting cakes. Correct me if I am wrong OP.:peace:

Either way is great but I prefer fresh most times.

Up to you really, my sister won't eat the fresh because of the taste.

Personal preference.

EDIT: Dry if you want to keep them for a bit, maybe to wait on a second flush. You can also add fresh shrooms to the fridge for keeping in a brown paper bag, although they start decomposing from the time they are picked, so always check on them in the fridge(well I do) just to make sure that they are not spoiling. Hope this helped..

they say they are more potent fresh. but i think if you correctly dry them then they should be the same. All your doing is taking the water out of the mushrooms. But without scientific analysis we can only go on word.

So that means give false information? I see people get flamed all day long because they post misinformation accidently. And here is a so called "old hand" blatantly misguiding a young shroomerite.

Maybe he was being greedy by wanting to know, but maybe he just simply wanted to know what the outcome of his time and money would get him. Some users the way they act towards newbs pisses me off, just because you were new to this long ago, doesn't mean you should manipulate and be a total prick about newb questions. I guess I'd prefer not to post as someone to view me as a liar. But as I see that's only my point of view. :peace:

:rofl2:

Three pounds.

I can't stand it when people ask how much they're going to get off cakes... It just seems like people trying to get the last drop of dope out of their cottons.

I lurk to continue learning about mycology in general. These 'cake and yield' posters are a dime a dozen in comparison to the true mycological assets on this board.

yeah us noobs do sometime get treated a lil retarded but then again sometimes we do. Anywho RetroVirus

ive only done two grows. Both with cakes. My first was a disaster only 2 out of 8 cakes made it fruit. They were pink buffalo all together i came out with 4 dry grams. But know on the flip side my recent grow was 2 jars hit up with Brazilian. I had 2 flushes and came out with 12 dry grams. That just goes to show how different the numbers can be. The littlest upset in any one condition can put a serious hurting on your harvest.
