Dark Side Of The Moon.....

I hear that. Speaking of veggies, I just started an ass load of seeds off this morning. Going to try & get a head start on them this year. I remember my Grandmother saying that it all depends on what times a gardener plants their veggie's/flowers, wither it be in the head or butt of the year as to how good they do.. Never had heard of that before she said it, but I think I'm going to listen to her, Grandma knows best :mrgreen:

Will do. Hopefully it will take off. How long does it take to start to see any type of growth after a cake is birthed :??:

Thanks. Yeah trying to get mine going now. Started indoors of course.. Cold snap you say! It was snowing here yesterday.. lol And I hope I got the Shrooms straight. It's just tedious work, and you gotta be ontop of them at all times. Well at least until I can score a timer.. ;)

Snowing again? I believe it, we had such strong winds the last couple days, weather man said 20 mph with up to 35 mph gusts! shew!!! This is the timer I got last year, works great. Has two "outlets" on it also. you can get it for 13.49 and it's pretty quick shipping too ;) http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-Day-Dual-...5026652?pt=US_Hydroponics&hash=item1c21bb985c
 
Yeah, I had thought the perlite didn't have any nutrients. Like I had said though it's all I had around on hand time being. I still see allot of white fuzzy growth all over the place though.. I was thinking about throwing a top layer of vermiculite over it and see what it does. If it fails, really no loss. Just trying to get my feet wet before I birth these other "BRF +V" cakes. There looking good thus far. So I was just thinking of doing the regular old SGFC Tek with perlite in the bottom for the humidity with those. I will have some dough to get some extra supply's..

Man I hope I'm wrong, but I do not think that the perlite will have any benefit here, and may even prevent the mycilium from colonizing properly. Perlite has no nutrients in it, and the myc needs nutrients. I used perlite in my large fruiting chamber just to help hold humidity, but I've never seen or heard of anyone mixing perlite with the mycilium. I'm sure canndo will chime in once he see the pics. When I mixed my colonized grain with a medium, I used straight course verm. I've read since then that I could have used better options, but it was convenient and cheap and seemed to work well. Anyway hope this works out.

As I am standing in amazement!! Boy am I HAPPY!!! We have SHROOMS guys!! Ok. Remember the only cake that wasn't contaminated from the pre sterile batch :??: I had birthed this cake early. I went into where the FC is set up, took the lid off all to notice the cake had fell over a tad. Well I washed up, then put on some gloves to turn the cake on it's side all to find tiny pins (Shrooms) growing out form each corner and middle of the cake more so along bottom of cake.. :) Damn I am happy now!! SEE checks them out....

Hell yeah!! Thanks. ;) I would say 2 to 3 weeks. Although from what all I have read and have been told, one single cake can be soaked again, and maybe again to get 2nd,3rd, and so on's flushes. Contaminates ususlly setup (most cases) after 3rd, and 4th flush according to what all I have read thus far..

Now I need to read more up on taking spore prints, cause I am planning on keeping this strain around a good while. This that's fruiting is the Golden Teacher..

You'll definitely have to tell me how they "do" for ya ;) what's a spore print and how do you take one? I've heard you mention it before...so basically there are more spores left in the cakes after harvesting? that's rad man, like three for one ;)
 
i got my mono potassium phosphate and azomite. I also picked up some vermiculite to add to the organic soil i got. i top dressed my buckets and just fed them water. wow first time just water in weeks. Ill mist them with mono PP mixed with water later. and feed them some also with my tea.

Love seeing that colonization :)!

As Dan says, yes, but in your case, frankly I would wait until I had the concepts down and managed to get a better handle on contamination. G2G depends upon good tactics and smooth movements.

yes you can its called grain to grain transfers (g2g) and is much much faster than other inoculation methods. break up the colonized jar pour some into the grain/second jar lids back on and give the second jar a shake to break off bits of myc. and mix the colonized and uncolonized grains around. this is an expansion of the culture and can be done several times before the genetics become tired. done in your GB or SAB of course
