First grow, WBS to case
    #8012097 - 02/12/08 05:46 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

I've been reading a lot on these forums, and I will have pics tomorrow.

I used Doc's wild bird seed tek to inoculate 6 quart jars of spawn. Inoculation date was December 19th, 2007. I think colonization took forever because I forgot to shake the jars. I had tremendous growth on the top of the jar but it took a long time for the myc to travel to the bottom of the jars.

All 6 jars have finally completely colonized and are ready to be cased. I plan on using perlite for the humidity on the bottom of the monotub, and putting the spawn with a 50/50 verm coir as my casing. I know FAE is important, but at the moment I don't have money to automate this process. Whats the best way to go about this? Fanning?

I'm going to try and clone from my first flush into a master LC, and then spawn from the master into working LCS. I also want to make one of those boxes with the hepa filters and blowers. My main concern right now is bulk, after I get some practice in bulk I want to do some experimenting. Should I g2g 1 of these jars into 10 or should I just case all 6 and then LC from clone?

I've never done a monotub before yet I've done my research on them. First, as far as I know, a mono does not need perlite. Monotubs are meant to me a mini environment in which the substrate creates the humidity. Second, for FAE, you need to make holes in the tub and stuff them with polyfill. Fanning too will help.

As for a recommendation, I would spawn your WBS to a coir/coffee mix. WBS doesn't have many nutes and your yield will greatly increase. Also casing with verm/coir tends to cause overlay b/c of the coir having nutes. Look into the 50/50+ tek (pH balanced peat/verm) with oyster shells.

Just my 2 cents. Someone with more experience can guide u better.
