Thanks a bunch! I've read the most about pf tek and brf cakes. So i better follow that tek. Once i have a little experience i totally plan on using this mono tek to do bulk.

Do you dunk and roll before you place in the fruiting chamber?

JP
Cakes? Yes.

Sonar is thinking about or already is using cakes to bulk, where you wouldn't roll in verm for obvious reasons...

How do i get from a spore syringe to the mono bulk tek?

From what i have read, i will have to grow them, take a print and also some tissue from the fruit body of the best example and place on agar. then agar to bulk. Is this making sense or do i have it twisted?

sub'd ,+rep, this looks like a foolproof tek,i'm a few days from my first ever harvest(bought a kit from a headshop) and plan on making lc's and using ozztek.
sidenote, doesn't Lincecum remind you of the pitcher kid from dazed and confused?

1 Quart [US] = 4 Cups [US] so 28 cups per 7 quarts. I got a feeling two pounds isnt enough horse poo for this tek

Will answer questions later.

Been busy...

Pulled the mono to check at 13 days, the temps were below 70f, average about 68f, never had such a low temp before and knew growth would be slow...

There was a patch about 1"x1" not consolidated, but due to the amount of knots I noticed, and especially when I spotted the unconsolidated also had knots, I decided to keep it out and in front of a small window with a fan in the room on a timer and tried to bump the temps up to at least 70+. Prob be pulling fruit in a week to 10 days.

How long
can spot syringes be kept in the fridge I've had some for prob 2 yrs will they still colonize?
Try making a lc and a few 1/2 pint grain lc jars, prob still viable, just bring them up to room temp slowly over a day or 2 before trying them.

how many pounds of horse poo is 7 quarts?
don't know JP, not real heavy when all broke up fluffy.

Get the uncomposted if you can, but leached. Big difference in performance due to texture. Notice how the myc runs along the hair and grass fibers in the poo.
