I put the build up on the farm… probably they deleted it now but its a box with a hepa filtered intake forced in by a fan creating positive pressure. Its cheap and waaaay better than a still air box. Like maybe $150-200 if you already have a fan

so lick the frog, eat the shroom? 😆 😆


 
Anyone here running a miniature fan on their tub? If you are let’s hear what you have, benefits and any negatives, and where did you source it.
 
Computer fans are usually good and reasonable. Easy to mount and go from 1” to 6” square at most computer shops. You should be able to make into 5v USB plug-ins if you have the USB plug-in charger.

Just a thought…🤷‍♂️

I need to cover a 2” hole with it. I haven’t found one big enough yet. Everything I have found so far won’t cover the entire hole.

Been a while but let me take a quick look. Your hole is 2” diameter?

I don’t have any smaller ones left. Just a backup 6” for my case.

You should be able to use the above link to find one. Between 60-100mm depending on the hole and shape. I’m surprised Amazon wasn’t more helpful but I rarely use it myself.

Tried spore works. Inoculated two grain bags and both syringes I got from spore works appear to be non viable. They were KSSS and B+. Ready to toss the two grain bags and shop elsewhere for spores.

that sucks man, if you're sure it was the bad spores i'd say something to them. they've been around a long time and not some fly by the night company, i've never dealt with their customer service before but i'd be interested to hear what they say.

Said they got a 30 day guarantee. It’s been 27 days. They are sending replacement syringes. I gave them the lot #’s to the bad ones. They asked for those so they can monitor it with other customers. I have the tracking number for the replacements. They were pretty good about it I must admit.

well that sounds pretty solid man, the best of luck with new ones.

where were you getting spores from in the past?

they hooked me up, havnt had problems with them.
 
If you’re looking for solid spores check out Philly Golden Teacher. His genetics are top notch and he truly loves mycology and it shows. Be warned the albinos he isolates are insanely potent. I grew out some of his True Albino Teachers and had a trip so intense off an 1/8th it felt more like LSD. 🍄💜
 
syringes proved out to be clean, and the LC jars I mixed up also tested out to be clean on agar. gonna be knocking up those jars this evening to increase the volume of LC. also have 150 lbs of rye grain coming in here in a couple weeks so will be ramping up rather quickly.

found a vendor that has various pan cyan prints available so got some of those ordered. the syringes i have just won't germinate on agar no matter what I do, so hoping the prints will prove out to be more viable. if i can't get them to germinate i'll probably put away the decades long dream of running those exotics. really hoping i can make it happen though because they'll be a great primer for handling more difficult medicinal varieties like cordiceps.

also need to hit up the farmers market and see what the competitors have available. there should be opportunity to squeeze in with offerings that aren't as common, and as such charge a higher premium. anything to help increase the profit margins since operational costs are starting to stack up just based on the raw materials alone, not including the equipment costs that I've sunk into this endeavor so far.

will post up pics of the plates in a bit. just waiting for the flow hood to scrub the air in the work area now. Need to get out there and make more plates tonight, too as I've got pink oysters and lion's mane that need transferred again.
