PE journey of time

siam_jim · 02-20-06, 00:53

Well since there wasn't much to do. I decided to start a thread on my progress in growing my first PE, you old timers have some insights let it rip. here i have some chicken feed knock from a G2G wbs. and had already loosen them up and put it in my favorite KFC tub. the substrate are poo,rice straw, coir and rice hulls. as times goes i will update with pictures.

peace

Please keep us posted!

red_lenses · 02-20-06, 02:42

I cant wait till ralphsters gets pe in again, im going to give this one a try myself. Good luck and keep us posted.

smacked12 · 02-20-06, 06:48

i just picked up a few pe syringes this week from sporeworks. i started a few petris last night and plan to start a few brf jars for spawn tonight. so, i'll definately be watching this thread.

02-20-06, 08:41

Siam, nice! Can't wait to see them!

I too am working with PE and can't wait to spawn the jars

arezap · 02-20-06, 08:48

I have one PE print and I don't want to use it. It's a beautiful shedthemonkey pe bookmark. It has a color drawing of a rainbow with a pot of golden shrooms at the end of the rainbow.I have a pe6 in my library and I have no idea where that came from because I went over my trades and free spore thread and couldn't figure it out. Maybe I will give the pe6 a try but it's just not the same as pe to me.

02-20-06, 09:09

I think Sheds bookmarks are PE6 also? I may be mistaken, but I have one of those also, marked pe. But I think I remember it being pe6 just marked pe.

I am probably wrong (

makes the memory foggy).
Arezap, if I get any prints off my PE I'll share with ya. You've got some I'd like anyway

siam_jim · 02-21-06, 22:50

thanks for all the cheers. here are the babies after 2 days..looks like they are just doing great.

will up date in another few days.
peace

02-21-06, 22:55

lookin good mang.....PE is one of the slowest
growing cubies out there right now next to PR's...
you'll prolly get some nice big dense fruits from this
project...cause from working with them so much i have
learned that bulk methods are the way to go with this strain...

i'm awaiting updates..

I checked the PE bookmark and it says PE 3/05. So shedthemonkey is it PE? You said you remembered your wife drawing mine.

And BTW freakachino even more strains have come in. I have to update my list.I love trading with folks!

lost_onabbey_rd · 02-22-06, 00:44

sheds PE bookmarks are infact PE6..
gotta remember it wasn't till shed had a few pages of prints out that we all learned that the print he got from RR was infact a PE/tex mix
i had one of the same ones.. i just cut the print off and still use the rest of bookmark to this day

LOST

hogwild · 02-22-06, 03:53

im looking forward to seeing your progress as i am interested in this strain myself

02-22-06, 08:30

Siam, those tubs are looking great!!!!! I can't wait to see the updates. Are you going to case them or let them fruit off the poo?

Glad the smoke isn't affecting me too much

I too haven't used my Shed bookmark, I just like it too much to use

Arezap, hopefully I'll have some strains to trade with you soon.

siam_jim · 02-22-06, 08:41

hummm.... freakachino, i haven really decide that yet but it does have me thinking tho. if i was to case them will i get better performance?..surely it will also stall me for another few days if i do case as well...any suggestions?
peace

02-22-06, 08:49

I find that the casing is good for keeping the mycelium hydrated and moist. A protective barrier for it kind of. When I don't case, I get fruits just a few days sooner. The pinsets aren't really affected by casing/no casing in my experiences. Its really going to come down to your personal preferance I think. I can't offer too much advise on this PE strain as I haven't fruited any yet. If you've always cased your substrates then do what works consistent for you that way you can fruit it with confidence.

Are you keeping the bucket(s) outside?

siam_jim · 02-22-06, 09:02

yes the tubs are outside and when its ready i put them in my FC outside as well. I too don't know much on the PE strains but all my other grow i always case them for that same reason to keep them hydrated. so case them it is then! it gets really hot here!
peace
siam

02-22-06, 09:06

Siam, yeah, I'd say case it if you're fruiting outside for environmental reasons. Try some non-cased poo substrates sometime with a strain you have a lot of prints or spawn of. Then if it doesn't work out you won't feel like you wasted anything.

siam_jim · 02-22-06, 22:49

here it its at day 3...looking good and just as expected
peace

02-23-06, 08:03

Nice ropey growth on that!!!! Lookin' good!

02-23-06, 09:12

Yeah that looks nice and rhizomorphic, jim! Good Work!

shortbed454 · 02-23-06, 11:36

;looking good. best of luck on the grow.

siam_jim · 02-23-06, 22:09

i don't believe the speed of this. as you can see it has 99% colonized the tub..i think i will case it tomorrow...

siam_jim · 02-24-06, 23:37

Not long now! as i just case them.
peace
siam

siam_jim · 02-26-06, 23:42

almost forgot to take pics as i go so many projects going at the same time. here's how the casing look like. first i had though it was the greens but further look there were mycelium....wheeew
peace

SharkieJones · 02-27-06, 00:16

I gotta try my hand at that.

red_lenses · 02-27-06, 00:30

Won't be long now.

02-27-06, 08:59

Nice Siam!!! I can't wait to see them

Not too much longer at all!!!

Hippie3 · 02-27-06, 09:06

chicken feed and kfc containers,
i love this guy.

are y'all quite certain that ALL of shed's bookmarks
labeled PE are PE6 ?
because he sent both,
some labeled PE as well as some labeled PE6.
i've sent out several of both.

siam_jim · 02-27-06, 09:07

yes i am still excited as my first one, like an expected parent.
ahhh it drives me nuts...lol

I love the KFC buckets too

and chicken feed is a great grain to use I bet, kinda like the horse grain I use maybe.

Hippie, I was wondering about shed bookmarks too, I think I just remember talk that they were pe6 even though labled pe. Mine also says pe 3/05 so I was assuming it was from the first pe6 he grew out from Rodger.
Though I know what happens when I ass-u-me most times

This is the assumption I think we are all under. Hopefully Shed will "shed" some light on his prints for us
