Hey guys I was wondering about the first page, the picture of the garbage bag seems to show the presence of sphagnum. Is this correct? If not correct, is there any room for BX in the fruiting blend along with Vermiculite?

Perhaps the Sphagnum is too acidic, I don't know. This thread is not too busy these days. Anyone?
Hey. What's going on?

Where would you recommend getting the spore syringes from?

I always refer people to hawk, dudes always had good stuff and takes care of his customers if anything goes wrong
I just want to say first off thanks for the great guide, I'm really eager to get started on my first attempt at growing.
I have a couple questions.
How many colonized jars are needed per tub?
Does anyone have a recommended set up/method for incubation to keep it at a stable 80 degrees?

A bulk tub? Or just a coupla trays?
Don't mean to revive such an old thread, it just has a lot of very useful information for research.
Bulk tub, like a decent size rubbermaid. I was thinking of doing 2-4 tubs. Would 5 jars per tub be enough?
Also just to clarify one step from myco101's guide, when you put the jars into the trash bag filled with sterile verm, did he just throw the jars into the bags and mix it up before putting the bags into the tubs? I'm guessing this spreads out the mycelin so it can colonize the whole bag completely?
I also don't see myco101 using verm in his jars but others have recommended to add a layer of verm at the top of the jar. Does it really matter?

I assume you will have 5 quarts of colonized sub each. Mix the sub with your choice of bulk sub. There are a few ways to go about this. One is 1 part colo sub mixed with 1 part coco coir + vermiculite. Or instead of just the coco verm you also add some animal poooo. Or use straw. Google SHROOM BULK. Alot of recipes. All similar procedures. Philosophies. Search this site (riu) thread entitled BULK MONOTUB by Choempi. Some ideas there.
Ok, great thank you! I was under the impression you just throw the jars(colonized grain) in with 100% verm. Didn't realize the substrate needed other stuff in it. Now I just gotta figure out where to find 5 quart size jars that have 90 degree angles.
I have access to all the hpoo I could want but seems like too much hassle to deal with...seems like you can grow them just fine without it

You could just get pint size also (at Lowes, Ace). Or order auto clave bags. Google SHROOM PC BAGS. They're even on amazon.
If I get pint size, I'll still need around 5 quarts of spawn per tub right? I'll try to find quart size jars if possible, more jars more opportunities for contamination and more syringes I'll need. Thanks for pointing me in the right directions, I'm really looking forward to getting this going.
Not necessarily. You can do whatever amount you want to. You scale.it out for your needs. Look into the bags. You can colonize some pints. Add em to some more sub. Then when that colos. And those to bulk. Less than one syringe.

Just now getting into shrooms and let me say they are a great experience
...... live on a large cow farm so have gold caps growing everywhere
Hate to bring up a old thread but want to get into growing and have a question. Is there a way to get spores from these shrooms i have picked and use them to in this tek or will I need to purchase a syringe?
