JusterBuster Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hey Folks, I had an old post, "Rye Bags" that doesn't really apply here, but one of them did survive, had to be broken up, and re-colonized. In any case, I am trying my very best to be completely self-sufficient. By the way, I apologize for only meeting a few of you all in person at the conference. I had to travel around more and later than expected Here are some pics... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JusterBuster Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 Rye Bag was stagnant, but after re-coloniizination, and a little warmth & humidity, in a terrarium - it's starting to get active... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonkers Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Looking good, JB. Do you break up the material in your jars to remove it or did you figure how to get the solid mass out without breaking it up? Did you somehow find pint (quart?) jars with sloping sides? Thx.

JusterBuster Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 Actually, that Rye spawn was from a bag, not a jar. I coarsely crumbled it into horse pasteurized horse manure, then into a little rubbermaid bin, with a layer of vermiculite on top. I am using 1/2 pint wide-mouth jars right now. What kind of jar is it that you were wondering about? I do have one quart jar, but I don't use it much for anything myco-related...

Bonkers Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I figured that if x amount of shrooms could be recovered from 1/2-pint jars, then why not use larger jars which don't require much longer than 1/2-pint jars to colonize? Couldn't find larger jars with sloping sides to allow removal w/out breaking up colony. Ended up using larger jars but breaking up after colonization and putting in rubbermaid bins like you did. Thought maybe you found large jars with sloping sides. Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
