- 12 pack of half pint jars (preferably wide mouth but these are harder to find)- Some BRF(brown rice flour) you can grind your own whole brown rice.- Some vermiculite- tap water- spore syringe- storage baggies sandwich or quart size.dollars to get started and grow around 2-4oz dried grams of shrooms very easily.$10 more if you don't own a pot with a lid. Get one at an Asian grocery store or wallmart.***Don't forget there will be some leftovers that save you money off subsequent grows.you will re-use the jars, have enough verm to do a few more grows, BRF is cheap, you'll have extra baggies.Subsequent grows can be done for a few dollars***Prepare the jars like you would following the PF tek, which is located in the sticky posts at the top of the forum or in the following links.when it comes time to fruiting skip the SGFC and do this.If using half pint cakes like the PF tek then birth them, wash the dry verm barrier off, put the cake back in the jar and put some new verm on the top.If using a bigger jar you wont need to birth the cake at all because there's no dry verm barrier. Just add some verm to the top and moisten ityou can put them on a shelf somewhere they receive good lighting through the day.mist them as needed to keep the surface moist. likely once a day to once every other day. Doesn't require any babysitting at all.You can use bigger jars but keep the BRF cake to about a half pint in size. Using larger pucks of BRF cake will stall out when inoculated with a spore syringe, you want to keep the cake to about half pint in size and wide and flat rather than tall and skinny if possible. If you use a bigger jar than the half pint jar skip the dry verm barrier and use a "Grain jar lid"(gas exchange filter and optional injection port) to inoculate and colonize. Do not shake.CONS are the jars are in use for the fruiting period and harvesting can be a pain in the ass.you can use some coir or verm or both together as a top layer or casing to help create a better micro-climate.Make the cakes as above, then when they are finished colonizing birth them (before the consolidation period as they do not need consolidation used as spawn)Shred the cakes by hand or with a cheese grater. using your shredded cake spawn mix with bucket TEK coir (next two links)use this to make a monotub or shoeboxshoebox tubs are $1 and a brick of coir is about $3.I fruit shoeboxes with grocery bagstotal cost to do bulk without a pressure cooker$31-50don't forget there will be some leftovers that save you money off subsequent grows.
