First Grow, PE & Red Down Under on Mycrobags

LocoH · 10-22-07, 13:31

First I Would Like To Say Thanks To This Vast Database Of Knowledge You Guys Have Worked So Hard To Accumulate For Us Begginners. I Am Using Hip's MycroMix. Five With Penis Envy, And Five With Red Down Under. They Were Nocced Up 6 Days Ago, And I Had Trouble Controlling The Temps. But Now That I Have Solved That Problem(Which I Will Post How I Did With Pics Later), I Left Then Alone For A Few Days. I Now See About 20% Colonization On 9 Of The Bags, And Am Pumped About This Even More. I Will Post Some Pics This Weekend And Also Show How I Figured To Create A Controlled Temperature Enviroment Within A Small Closet That Can't Be Sealed Easily.

LocoH · 10-22-07, 13:34

Also, Temps In Closet And RubberMaids Is A CONSTANT 87, While Right Outside Closet Is Still A Steady 72.

LocoH · 10-23-07, 16:54

Wow! 24 Hours And The Growth Has Tripled In All Bags. Really A Cool Thing To Watch. At This Save They Will Be 100% In About A Week.

LocoH · 11-03-07, 21:57

eatyualive · 11-04-07, 09:29

excellent locoh!

LocoH · 11-04-07, 11:30

Well the PE are going into sandbags. I have already whipped up some bulk sub. It consists of 40/40/20 c poo/coir/castings. And the RDU are going into sandbags too just doing them more like seymore did here http://forums.mycotopia.net/exotic-m...-sandbags.html (New Project - Pan Cyans in Sandbags).

bill_cooper · 11-04-07, 11:55

hey LocoH
congrats on your success thus far
i had no idea that you were a beginner
would never know from the pics
or from talking with you
can't wait to see the first flushes

LocoH · 11-04-07, 15:05

not my first grow, but my first away from the PF TEK

ahh i see
that makes more sense
still seems like you do very well

LocoH · 11-11-07, 12:35

Here are some images of the sandbags finished and put back into incubation as of now. The second image also shows how i incubated my jars/bags. I small heating blanket and a sleeping bag. The bag insulates the closet and traps the heat in.

The first five bags are PE, each spawned 1 MycoBag to 4 cups bulk.

That last bag is a spawn of HillBilly. 1 Jar of Popcorn, 2 jars of BRF spawned to 8 cups of bulk.

My bulk material ended up being: 1lb Coir, 1lb Poo, 1 cup used Coffee Grounds, 1 cup Worm Castings, a lil Lime.

LocoH · 11-11-07, 12:38

Oh yea, the bags are 12x10x24 gusseted 3mill poly bags bought in bulk. anyone needs some let me know.

LocoH · 11-12-07, 21:53

So just 24 hours later, and the Myc has just SHOT OFF.

LotRev · 11-12-07, 22:06

Looks like you're on the fast track to reap your rewards!

Sending good pinning vibes ---> LocoH

LocoH · 11-13-07, 16:37

Thanks all, really love these sandbags. Kinda tweaking on the TEK on some of them to see varying results. Will post any amendments to the TEK if I can show the results to be any better.

Here are some pics 48hrs after spawn to bulk. I would say the bags are already around 30% rite now. the sides and bottom are just like lightning. And a slight squeeze of one corner of one shows it to be brick hard already.

imsodangraw · 11-13-07, 17:10

Hm sandbags.. is fruiting the directly from the mycrobags a bad idea?

eastwood · 11-13-07, 17:25

Your Sandbags are kicking ass..

I wouldn't say it was a bad idea. In fact if your new to the hobby, its a great idea. But with a smaller surface area, yields are smaller. Spawning to the larger sandbags gives you a greater chance of a slightly higher yield.

norcal21 · 11-13-07, 17:50

nice looking bags.
i am a serious beginner to it all
did WBS and put it in straw and it is going just slower than i had hoped
maybe from what your showing ill throw my hand in this soon.
oh i have some cakes going they are about 90-98% colonized

good job though they look great to me but...what do i know

take care

looks great man, i plan on doing some sandbags like that myself. i just innoculated the spawn bags today so i hope they look that good. I could actually use a few of those bags if you would be willing to accept paypal for them so send me a pm if you read this

LocoH · 11-18-07, 10:08

About 5000 pins popped up over night. Camera sucks to bad to catch them on film, but as soon as there big enough to be seen, more pics will be up.

Hippie3 · 11-18-07, 10:28

vinz · 11-18-07, 10:30

nice! fan fan fan! dont let them abort

LocoH · 11-22-07, 00:00

Been awhile since an update, but i wanted to let them be. Well This is just the bag of HillBillys. The PE bags are knotting and small heads are beginning to form. But these HillBillys, LOOK OUT! I started to count the larger pins, and quit at 200, not to mention the thousands of smaller ones. It will be impossible to stop aborts i think with this many. That bigger picture of one is the leader, hes about 3in now, and was the first one i noticed. there are some very nice clusters goin on.
