The BASICS

Here we discuss the newb questions, and inevitably, the newb mistakes I'm bound to make.
A few people have reached out to me on here and ig. The same question I always ask. Where do i get the info from?
So I thought I'd share my results here and show who taught me.
I'm learning from a guy on YouTube PhillyGoldenTeacher.

I think I'm gonna start in the 90 second uncle Ben bags. Then a shoebox. I don't wanna dedicate a tent so I have a crazier plan. Make another light "chamber" in my veg room.
Anyway. Here goes my journey July '21

Pretext: I used to live in FL and have had it a few times. Less than 10 total. People still think it takes cow shit!?!? Dummies. I'll show em!
 
Well. My mentor isnt very reliable. Anybody else on here help clarify some of the basics before i invest in the materials needed to fruit. I have an outdoor going and an empty tent. It would be a perfect temp with little light and a tent right next to it with all the fresh air I could need. And a humidifier for rhe middle.

Post your questions and I’ll chip in what I know as I’m sure others will as well.
What fruiting style are you interested in? Pf tek, mono tub, shotgun?
Get some sterilized grain jars from Midwest, grab a spore syringe of whatever strain you want and inoculate the jars. Shake em up in two weeks, wait another 7-10 days and then layer the grain in with your substrate. Seal it up for 10-14 days so the sub colonizes and then let em rip
 
Interesting. I just went to the resource. Clicked download and it took me to document. Try the below link and let me know.

Got it. The phone wasnt doing it yesterday.
I'm binging youtube right now.
I think I'm gonna do ryeberry bags.

Thats a good wrap up. Thats where in at. I have the basics down now just a few little questions.
I'm doing tubs in a 4x4 I have it setup for weed.
I'll post more when I have time. Now for the beginning of my 40

Make sure you have good fae and don’t forget to mist and fan as often as possible. Mushrooms don’t need much light. I use a 100w cfl at 6500k in a 2x2x4 and that’s sufficient. 8-10hrs of light once you initiate fruiting

Thanks bro , u read my mind.
No light for colonization?
I have a 6 inch infinity inline booster fan with a controller. I could turn it way down.
Id like to have a humidifier on a rain bird controller that will turn on the fan/humidifier combo when the th drops below say 80%.
I have another 4x4 with weed next to it so I wanna limit the humidity in that tent as well.
I'm building a few lights for an upcoming show,out,of,pocket so $ is on the essence. i go to spot once every 2 days for watering. So I may go as simple as possible this inaugural run

Keep it in the dark while the sub colonizes, with the lid taped shut . In 7-10 days you should see it start to sweat, then open up the air holes and give them some light and that will initiate fruiting conditions. I need to stress that fanning is essential to getting the fruits to pop and not just abort, like twice a day minimum. It’s the moisture evaporating that pulls the fruits up. You could rig up your exhaust fan on a timer to suck the air out full blast, but you would need bigger air holes which invites possible contaminants.

Oh shit. No way I'm getting there twice a day
 
Ya I was gonna say you pretty much have to be there everyday cause you could have a couple pins in the morning and a whole tub full at night it happens that quick
Ok. Once a day during peak times. Day once flipped to fruiting. My bro @Deebs uses a "Martha" tent. Sent me this
This is what I need. I have a mister just need the rainbird rh controller and build the piping to tent.
I NEED automation. Not to mention , less timws I mess with it , the better. I am contamination...
