first grow ever
    #8681314 - 07/25/08 05:51 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

ok so i know that it isnt recomended but for my first grow im trying out the whole rye grain setup
i plan on buying a 3 lb presterilize bag of rye and a syrimg of pesa spores
i have a styrofoam cooler with a plexiglass drip sheild for the fc
i am also using verm. and peatmoss for the casing layer
1st is it alright to spray the fc with lysol
2nd is it necessary to sterilize the presterilized rye
3rd what can i expect as far as amount of shrooms from this setup

p.s. im not using any heater or humidifier just perlite in the bottom

I would not use Lysol on the fruiting chamber. You can wash it out well with an antibacterial soap or even better, use a mild bleach solution.

Healthy mycelium in a 100% colonized tray is surprisingly contaminate resistant. :thumbup:

bleach makes a strange residue and sometimes seems to crystalize.

use a h202(peroxide) solution.

but brotha, we're in the 21st century now(arent we:confused: )

ditch the styrofoam and go get a real FC.

not sayin it wont grow mushies, cuz there ppl here that have proved they will grow nearly anywhere, but there much better and CHEAPER options.

i couldnt believe the other day i saw a identical size styrofoam cooler for more than an insulated rubermaid...

yeah i saw a $60+ cooler online but when i got to k-mart the styrofoam was cheaper, lighter, and had a better seal

and should i still spray the fc if i use perlite?

You don't need a cooloer. You need a plastic tub/tote. They cost like $5-10. And right now Walmart is giving away free bathing suits with every purchase.
