Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I want to add a manufacturer's recommendation from Unicorn Grow Bags. Unicorn states that you should not "Gusset Fold" your bags and instead "Flat Fold" them. The way you folded the top of the bag before sterilization by folding in the gussets in before folding the bag down is considered the gusset fold. Instead you should flatten the opening of the bag with no folds and then fold it down and under the bag.

@PhillyGoldenTeacher 2 года назад

I can't believe I missed his videos on flat folding. I'm very happy you pointed that out. I will definitely be flat folding going forward with my bags.

@patricknevermind8529 2 года назад

Bro, thank you.

@TearringNable 2 года назад

Curious, why would it make a difference between folds? Would it make sealing easier or is this for added grow room?

@kdock13 2 года назад

@@TearringNable The gusset fold means that your impulse sealer needs seal through 4 layers of plastic, making 2 seals, instead of 1 layer. This increases the risk of blowouts/leaks. You should also adjust your sealer so that you get a good tight seal in one pulse without burning the bag. Doing a second seal in a different spot is definitely a good idea.

I started my journey into mycology about 15 years ago before youtube was really a thing. I had to read for hundreds of hours on the shroomery, and watch the couple vids RR had. Your videos are ultra clear and to the point. Simple teks explained very well without any bs that you don't need. I wish your videos were around back then

@@adamxt3hxpwner oh fer sure. I hardly got into agar because you couldn't get supplies as easily back in the day. To start I had to go buy agar strips from an Asian market and grind it up with my coffee grinder lol. But now with Amazon and youtube it's cheap and easy. I'm excited to try the 2oz condiment cup thing. Also making a flow hood looks a lot easier now. Its amazing

This isn't substrate. This is grain spawn. You don't fruit grain spawn unless it's a cordyceps fungi. You add the fully colonized grain spawn to substrate

You taught me everything I know man!!! I’m doing an uncle Ben two right now then doing some mono tubs. Thanks for the new vids I was hoping to see some new stuff. One thing I’ll say is following everything to a T I still have trouble getting lots of pins. Only One dubtub I’ve ever had pinned a lot. I have “gotten it down” in my head they just won’t pin across like all the videos do, even though most show the best results possible and don’t show the problem grows I feel like I get less than normal results… TIA!!!

If you're using millet, does it change the prep work for grain bags ?

@EvolvedCognition 10 месяцев назад

So I'm inclined, due to ease of access & your video supporting that brown rice is the best grain for spawning, to use brown rice. In this vid there's an opportunity to elaborate on what the language "Now here I have some oats [or interchangeable grain?] & bird seeds that I've soaked overnight with some hot water." This suggests the water was kept hot for a 7-8 hour period; how was this accomplished, assuming that language is accurate? There's a fan in the frame, was that used, post soak, to decrease overall moisture levels? If so, for how long? Inquiring minds need to now the minutia without a need to guess. :) Thank you!

@dobb1984 10 месяцев назад

If you're doing a grain to grain transfer, can you do that before you seal these up?

@LarsLarsen77 6 месяцев назад

It's not just the larger volume of grains that takes more time. The plastic bags are more insulating than glass is, that is they have a lower thermal conductivity. Even massive mayonnaise jars cook faster than even small bags.

PGT, greetings! If a grain bag is faulty after, pressure cooking, can it be rebagged and reprocessed? Rookie mistake, maybe: before sealing I opened the top and fluffed the oats from the outside.
