how much straw?
    #8012226 - 02/12/08 06:58 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

If one were to try and produce 1lb dry shrooms from 1 flush, how much straw would be needed? I know theres alot of factors that contribute to the outcome of a flush, im just tryin to get a feel for things.
whats your opinion? 5lbs in a monotub? 3lbs in a log? 5" in a tub? idc what measurement you use, just provide one.

and of course its just a curious friend that instigated this question.

1 lb dry would take about 11lbs wet- You would need at least 6 qt jars- getting 4 ounces per flush dry- with an average 4 flushes.

Just spawn your straw anywhere from 1:3 if your sloppy, or 1:5 or 1:6 if you got your timing down. Go big on area and deep on substrate, you could hit your goal.

So, go buy a bail of straw for 7$ at a feedstore and you could grow till next season, and then some.
