PF - Tek / Re: Drying the Kidds?
October 22, 2010, 11:40:09 AM
OK so the ones I had out drying and thought were fully dry i guess were not. When I woke up I check the zip bag I put them in and they were a lil moist, so I have set them back out. Will just wait till they are crusty type dry (not about to turn to dust though). A couple look a little off white now just tint of yellow you think this is still alright and they are good? I did get some of that jerky packet thing and have them in my bag with the others that are dry and seem doing fine. I was wondering if you guys just throw them in a bag with that packet thing and that is it. I have read about people putting them in the refrig or freezer while keeping them around in like a tupperware or something. PLease let me know, dont want to have a disappointing halloween, if some are bad or not potent anymore.    ^_^

Cultivation / Re: FAE
October 22, 2010, 11:23:17 AM
I got one at walmart the other night for $8 or 9 bones and its a rectangle which shows the temp and the humidity on the bottom of it. Dont go looking in the fish and reptile section they are not there, they are by the house and out side big temp gauges you will see them. Just let you know so you not like me looking around like wtf where are these damn things. haha

Ok so I have a question about the FAE, while at walmart had a hairbrain idea. I am going to switch to an aquarium and have got pleaky glass piece to fit in the top of it so it will seal air tight to the most part of worrying about contamination. So I have used a bag at first and they have the filter patches on them, since not able to drill holes in glass, or rather not do that. :wacko: So to the point I was in the fish section and saw all the filters for the fish tanks and the refill filters. They have ones for the bigger aquarium filter. It is a blue filter type material and on other side is a plastic type basket, so was thinking if that would be able to use? I was just going to cut out the plexiglass to the size of the basket on the filter and just use that as a FAE for my chamber. I am wondering what people think if this will work or not, I think it would but not to sure cause not same material as the pach on bags.

check them out, I have dried the first grab for 24hrs now and they are actually drying a little different like huge whole kidds. The second ones are the ones I just grabbed out a hour and half ago? just doing a small fan and have a air purifer running on low near by too.

Vandal,

The oven at 300 degrees for a hour seems much, u do that?

Ok so I have been taking different groups of the fun kids out of the FC and been drying on foil or a paper bag with a fan on it for 12 to 24 hrs. I know taht they are mostly water so when you dry you will be losing weight, but feel likeI am losing my ass of with the weight I pull. Other day I pulled a set and they weighed 43 grams out he FC. After they were dry and not moist any long it was about 6 grams or so. I wanted to know if I need to do something else or is that just how it is? I wanted to have fatt kidds and have at birth but they dry to little ethiopian children that Sally struthers has been starving. Any one with advice and better insite please let me know.

Thank you all in the FUN Family.

Dub,

I wanted to ask that link you left I have looked but still have questions, because some the pics on the site wont show up. I am about ready to dunk prob in the next 12 to 24 hrs. So I would just need a bucket cleaned out of course and sterile, then fill with distilled water and put the mass in water with something light on top so the mass stays under water? Ok after 7 or so hours I will pull to put back in the FC, now before i used a bag set up. If I go back to the bag setup just put back in and do what I have been doing. Or should I set up the aquarium I have and set it in there and let flush? If I do aquarium do I need to put any perlite down and mass on something on top the perlite or you thing should be all good just on the glass. Just to make sure again you said I should not roll it just put back in FC?

Thanks alot you have been big help.

Yes up near the top part of the bag is a single cloth looking breather that is about a inch by inch maybe(didnot measure). Trying to figure out a way to make something similar to use in plexy glass for top of a incloser I am thinking of using next time.

like you said in another thread, when this stops producing to dunk it in (distilled water?) for 8 hours and then back to the FA? So i want to put something to keep it submerged but not heavy or sharp to destroy the log?

THanks again bro.

DUB,

check it out I have it in a room that stays btw 72 to 76 degrees. I do not have a hydrameter so not sure what the humidity in the bag too. When I switch to a aquarium going to get one so I know bro. Check them these have got huge in the past 2 days and been running 10dark/14 13watt lum. I know that caps that cracked when I pulled were wet they are all quite damp. I lose my ass when it comes to drying these things out, hahah. Let me know what you think of the pics, and any knowledge you have to share, you been a help.

PF - Tek / Flushing out a bag kit?
October 15, 2010, 04:02:16 PM
Hey I wanted to ask have pulled more and still have a few growing. I know once done I need to pull out all the kids that are left even the aborts. NOw are the aborts good to eat too? So i have read when you have cakes you dunk then water for a certain amount of time then do as you have done before. I need to know what I need to do with the bag I have with the compost and my mecylium mix. Do I need to soak it and then do it in another bag again to get my next crop? Or do i just break it up with all the compost and put that and little more compost and cover and let cultivate again for more and do same with the next flush and so on. Let me know I am little confused. I am going to do cakes after this, I bought Sphagnum peat moss instead of verm is this ok too when I do cakes or take it back?

Thanks for everything, I really appreciate. HOld it as a family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still have more growing in the bag but those were the ones that had popped but were long and looked like they were getting damp so I yanked them. Any recommendations on what I do when pick the others, or just let sit and see if more will head and grow?  Anyone know what the strain is by the look of them, it said in Oceanus-Guam but looked around and found out that Oceanus is a made up name.

Thanks,

I am new and actually first time using a kit you get a store and everything is done in a bag. Well I have had some little ones grow and some of caps have popped so went to take out. I noticed on some of them at the base have some white fuzz going up the stem a little. Then on a couple of them at the very base are a greenish blue on the bases and wondering, if they are alright to go ahead and dry and still eat of do they need to go, man I would be little pissed but oh well. I would love to get some incite on what to do that is easy and quick. Have read up on these boards and learned but have some starting questions for the cake it any will help. Here are some pics of what I took out earlier and wonder what you guys think. Let me know,

It wont let me post the pics because to big need help let me know what to do on getting pics to you guys.
Thanks......
