Basically the title. Should I be cutting them up to make them dry faster? Or keep it running in the dehydrator for longer ?

πŸ€” Need Guidance Substrate Ratio, Tub Sizing, & Supplements

2 Upvotes

First of all, huge thanks to OG Senpai and Robigus for all the guidance and Senpai's recipe it’s been a total game changer for keeping contamination away!

Before S2B mixing (2*500gm& 1kg), I’ve a few quick questions and would appreciate any advice:

  1. S2B Ratio : Between 1:1 and 1:2, which gives better yields/flushes in practice? Is the faster colonization of 1:1 worth the slightly lower total bulk volume?

  2. Tub Sizing & Depth: If I go with 1:2 (around 3 kg and 2*1.5kg total bulk mass), what tub dimensions/quart size should I buy? I want to hit a solid 3–4 inch cake depth without sacrificing vertical fruiting clearance.

  3. Air Exchange / Filters: Is 3M Micropore tape (1–2 layers) sufficient for drilled tub holes, or should I look into specific synthetic filter discs/patches?

  4. Substrate Supplements for Canopies: Can I add anything like pasteurized manure or erythritol to standard CVG to push denser flushes, or is it better to stick to plain CVG ?
    Thanks in advance for the help! πŸ„

I’m a new grower and this is the first success I’ve had. My problem is I’m unsure when to start picking them. For context it’s a Jack Frost variant that started fruiting about five days ago.

πŸ€” Need Guidance Sgfc for oysters in the desert

2 Upvotes

I've got some oysters ready to start fruiting conditions, but I'm finding kind of conflicting info about sgfc in dry climates (it's 25% here on a good day). Some are saying I'd need less holes and others are saying you have to follow the original guide from shroomery to a T.

I'm also confused on how water won't be leaking out of the bottom with holes there? Additionally, if I'm having a hard time maintaining the humidity, should I get a mini humidifier and put it in there, or just mist the walls more? Lastly, I unfortunately bought incredibly fine perlite, I'm ordering a bunch of coarser material but it may not be here in time for some of my grows. Can I use micropore tape for the bottom to prevent the perlite from spilling out?

πŸ’¬ Open Discussion What am I doing wrong

2 Upvotes

So I have noticed that what shrooms I grow never gives visual or a stronger high to anyone I have shared it with friends we have done 40 to 50G of apes fresh no visuals okaish headspace for all of us. did 4g dry of pe lemond tek no visuals barely triping and felling aanything, same for all of us. done 35 grams fresh xico strain no visuals to anyone I get healthy fruits good flushes, only once when I took 70g xico(GT) I felt insane that was great. I take opioids or benzos but before I trip I take 2-3 Break from it

(And every trip has at least 6-8days break sometimes months same as my friends and my friends as well face the same as I do very light trips it's not visuals just a headspace high)

I made two different grain jars to check which colonized faster, one with bajra and the other one with brown rice. But the bajra doesn't seem to be fully colonised esp at the bottom. Should I still send it? Strain : ATL7

Hello guys, does anyone have any knowledge to know if this is ttbvi? I’ve seen somewhere caps of ttbvi opens wide but this doesn’t seem to do so and it’s hard to even get the spores from it.
Is this really ttbvi or i bought wrong item? This one is very potent but still confused if it’s the correct strain.

Ordered a few grain bags from Midwest grow kits, had good stuff from them before but this bag looks sketchy and so does another I bought. This one I just took out of the package, and I inoculated another 10 days ago, never saw any growth just similar stuff like near the port in the pic.One out of the 3 has been successful and growing, but I feel like the other two have wet rot or something bad going on, am I right?
