I am so confused 🫤 “lay in tub with monotube with perlite and water “ ?? WTH ? How? Just sink the bag in water in the tub? And what is perlite ? This video jumped around really confusing
I inoculated my bag 2 months ago and put in a dark place at 75 degrees it’s finally populating the grain around the sides but not much on the bottom. I’m going to mix it up finally. Just taking forever for the mycelium to grow. Could I have a problem or maybe just not good syringe to start with.
I thoght this process would take 3 weeks max. Im about over a month down the road and have a bag of dirt thats almost all white. Hopefully i didnt make a mistake
This may be metabolites that the mycelium produces. You will need to open the bag once it is fully colonized, and smell the contents. IF they smell like soil, you should be good. If it smells like garbage or rotten food, it is contaminated.
Curious if you could tell us the yield difference between the bag flush vs the other bag that you emptied into the tub? How much more does the tub method get you?
You get more surface area in a tub so bigger yield. But you have to be more careful with contamination risks, so take care when transferring. Better to learn how to inoculate grain and spawn to bulk. It'll be cheaper and faster than these kinds of all-in-one bags. They're fine for very beginners, but I moved on quickly from them because of how long they took for such small yields.
@@KMFDM_Kid2000I’m ok with smaller yields , with my little research contamination seems to be a really big deal. I tried a year ago with jars and really didn’t know what I was doing. One got contamination and I didn’t identify it fast enough and ruined the whole batch. I’m trying again. I bought a bag from another company and mycelium did begin , was very slow. I did a break and shake and it really hasn’t come back visibly yet. Been a week. I bought to bags from this company so I have more potential for success. With these bags would you say I really don’t run a high risk of contamination ?
I bought two of these bags and I'm just starting growing but part of me feels like this is all a scam. I have random mushrooms growing off of wood in my basement lol. Mushrooms grow outside with no help. The next syringe I buy, I'm just injecting It straight into the ground in my backyard 😅
@@TheLuckyShepherd I tried growing once a couple years ago in jars and failed. Found these bags. First try and it worked. Be very sterile for the first steps of inoculation, and then acquire patience. Just let the spores do their thing. Getting good spores is probably the only thing you need to worry about
If it isn't contaminated, it'll still colonize. Might take longer because things have to reconnect and such. But shrooms especially something easy like Golden Teachers/B+ are quite forgiving and are a tough strain that can take a lot of mistakes and still grow well.
@@KMFDM_Kid2000I hope so, cause I have golden teachers and I may have did my break and shake too early. I’m just leaving it be now. I think patience is really required. I also hope these bags really lower the chances of failure due to contamination. I tried jars but that didn’t go well. I have three bags at different stages so hopefully I up my chances for success. This definitely isn’t easy and there’s so much to learn. Everyone says be super sterile which I have been, but in these videos I see a lot of bare hand handling .
@@michaelharris8354 I have not had good luck with all in one bags. But I did produce nearly 4 ounces dry from 6 Uncle Ben's Ready Rice bags. I would highly recommend that method. Cheap, easy, efficient, and effective. Your sterile technique still needs to be impeccable though. I was a nurse for 14 years prior to my current profession, so that taught me how to keep things clean and sterile while working. It's been effective so far. I had a very nice harvest of some Albino Texas PE6 and I'm working on growing some clones in agar. It's going to be a very fine summer this year. I love the Uncle Ben's Tek. So cheap and easy to do.
You can use a grow light there hotter than normal bulbs and sufficient replicate the effect from the suns light just go to a gardening place and tell them you have you inherited a plant you can't remember what it's called but the previous owner told you to get a grow light they'll hook you right up
Just harvested my first flush from this very bag... Lot of blueing on the stems, is that bad? (Blueing in the bag before harvest, of course worse after picking... Is that normal or ????
The instructions say to put 5cc per bag, so you can technically use 2 grow bags with 5cc a bag, however if you put 10cc in one bag, that is perfectly fine, you just won't have any left for another bag provided you only had 10cc to begin with. Hope that helps.
Guys I didn't buy my bag through this company but the company I did buy from, since I only had one bag, recommended using the full 10cc to help prevent any contamination although they said 100cc was too much. They said they've been successful using 10cc before and recommended laying the bag on its side and injecting the whole thing and let it sit for 10 seconds, then rotate and sit another 10, then again, so on and so forth till you've done it to all 6 sides and it should give it enough time to kinda seep in and spread out. I did so and had no issues with colonization. It's the fruiting I'm having an issue with 🥺
Thank you for the information you shared. I just wanted to ask you not to use back ground music in the next clips, because surely everyone who clicks on this article is looking for content and not listening to music, especially if the volume of the music is louder than the speaker's voice. The second issue is that the method you mentioned takes almost two months. Is this related to your method or does the type of mushroom you grow take more time?
You guys need to rework your instructional material. The instructions here dont accurately match the paperwork you send. This will cause confusion among inexperienced growers. It might be a good idea to go over your instructionals and make sure they all same to do the same things. (Small example: this video says to aerate for 20-30 minutes but the paperwork says five minutes) Its those small details that beginners sweat.
As a beginner and a complete over thinker I agree this would drive me nuts in situations like this I just go with the number in the middle and say a prayer to a god
Noticed in the video they didn't use micro pore tape on the injection site. Did you do the same? If you didn't, that could have increased contamination risk. Trying to make sure I don't accidentally make a mistake with mine.
@@FlintAntlers1There’s no reason to use micropore on the injection port. It’s supposed to seal up anyway when the needle is removed. I just put some packing tape over it to be extra sure nothing can get in. Not sure why so many say to use the micropore for this purpose.
@@sixandup939 rather safe than sorry i guess. Assumed micro pore tape would be the way to go since it's mentioned in many tutorials and also not too expensive
@FlintAntlers micropore tape is used to filter contam while letting air exchange happen. With the injection port, you don't need air exchange, having a complete seal would be the safest. If the self healing port works, nothing needed, if it doesn't, more than micropore tape should be used to be safe. There should be an air exchange filter already on whatever grow bags you use, bought or diy
Exactly what i needed from you, thanks so much 😊
This is perfect thank you! ❤
Finally a good explanation. Thank you
Awesome, great video. bg audio track is competing with her voice and instructions.
Been using them for years great product highly recommend! Myco labs Rocks cheers y’all ❤🎉❤🎉💪🙏💦💦💦🌱🌱🌱🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄
Thanks guys!

Direct sunlight will ruin your efforts, my people.

I keep wondering if you leave bag tucked after innaculation or untuck like in video. Does it matter?
if i received a 3 lb bag how many cc of LC
I thoght this process would take 3 weeks max. Im about over a month down the road and have a bag of dirt thats almost all white. Hopefully i didnt make a mistake
You're probably fine if the bag is all white with mycelium. The colonization alone takes 3-4 weeks, more for some species.
So i inoculated 2 of these all in 1 griw bags..
Both bags show green spots among the mycelium..Are the entire grows ruined?
This may be metabolites that the mycelium produces. You will need to open the bag once it is fully colonized, and smell the contents. IF they smell like soil, you should be good. If it smells like garbage or rotten food, it is contaminated.

I broke mine up way to early. Really hope it still colonizes
It should ,just may take a little longer

How do I put it in that sunlight does it have to be sunlight or can it just be light
You can use a grow light there hotter than normal bulbs and sufficient replicate the effect from the suns light just go to a gardening place and tell them you have you inherited a plant you can't remember what it's called but the previous owner told you to get a grow light they'll hook you right up
When fruiting what do you spray it with ie sterilized water or tap water or rain water ?
Distilled water
Thank you for your response, just started my first grow , can’t wait 🙂
I bought one but had no luck. It wasn't the syringe. I did another north spore all in one bag with the same syringe and had success.
Just harvested my first flush from this very bag... Lot of blueing on the stems, is that bad? (Blueing in the bag before harvest, of course worse after picking... Is that normal or ????
rofl
Blue on the fungi is good if it's a strain like blue meanie but idk about blueing in the bag that isn't fungi
@@sage1682 ya, in the bag while growing.
It's totally normal even the mycelium can be blue. Means your strain is great and everything healthy
This is a sure sign that you will have an interesting evening after consuming the fruit.
I put all 10cc in my bag. Will that matter

Time will tell 😊
Doing the same thing, I bought one bag and one syringe and I'm not waiting to order a another bag lol I'm just loading it all in that bish
You can put as little as half a CC. 2-3 is perfect and 10cc should be good. Don't really need any more than 10cc
Guys I didn't buy my bag through this company but the company I did buy from, since I only had one bag, recommended using the full 10cc to help prevent any contamination although they said 100cc was too much.
