Is it ready? This is the first experiment with straw.

In reply to:

It's a metal breadpan, about 11x5x4. I did not want to start too big on a first attempt. Spawn was a 1/2 pint BRF cake.

Thanks for the replies. I'll get back in a week or so with results.

Ooops, I missed your second question.  :crazy:

I didn't really use a specific tek. I did a search for straw in the grow log form and read all the posts that came up, and then winged it using the materials that I had on hand. Basically just pasteurized the straw, spawned, stuffed it into a suitable container and incubated at 85F for 10 days. :grin:

Re: Ready to case? (pic) UPDATE [Re: dog]

I cased my straw the day of my first post and this is how it looks now:



I can't say I am very impressed with the first flush. Is this a typical yield for straw? These fruits are rather small and anemic looking.  I've had better fruits with the same syringe on cakes. I suspect that something is not quite right in my grow chamber. A lot of the primordia that were forming never grew into shrooms. When I go for the second flush I am going to increase the air exchanges and increase the amount of case misting. Any other suggestions?  :confused:

well, could always stick a straw in your straw casings and rehydrate it but I doubt with a first flush like that you sucked it dry but who knows maybe it needs a little squirt.

I would suggest you add some horse or cow dung to your straw next go around.

Dung/straw 30/70 combo results in stout shrooms in good flushs.

Straw alone is sort of a one shot deal. Any 2nd, or 3rd shot are often feeble farts because moisture & nutes get depleated quickly in straw, by itself.
