Darklight Posted February 15, 2013 I'm running a demo on inculating spawn bags for some people who are looking to do myco work with groups who don't have lab access ( mostly overseas ). These people have a long, successful, established track record with working with communities to provide sustainable food supplies and they're looking at expanding that concept with myco products in their food forests. I'm figuring that the best way to do this could be to work with myco syringes, providing that there are no import restrictions for either myco or syringes in the places where they run workshops. Apparently most of these places have pressure cookers, so sterilising spawn won't be a problem as long as we can organise a suitable substrate that they can reliably access ( kitty litter for woodlovers, wild bird seed... we'e still not sure... that's next ) Grain bags can then be used to drill/ inoculate logs or newspaper rolls These looked interesting: http://unicornbags.com/store/product_info.php/cPath/26/products_id/40 5" x 4" x 18" filter patch with silicon injection port But I don't need a thousand of them. I need a dozen to run a proof of concept demo for them just to see how it will roll and how easy it is to teach. Does anyone have a spare dozen filter patch bags with injection ports ( pref of that size ) they can post me? Demo is being run gratis, but happy to pay for the bags. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waterboy 2.0 Posted February 15, 2013 Don't think I have a dozen stray, but if unsuccessful in sourcing ported ones I can see what I have of standard filter patch bags that could be ghetto teked with the likes of RTV silicon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darklight Posted February 15, 2013 Thanks I can get standard filter patch bags no wuckas, but I'd rather not ghettto tek the injection ports at this point. Ghetto tek is fine for us here with a basic myco knowledge but I'm not confident that n00bs and ppl whose immediate priorities can be very different wouldn't dislodge the ports accidentally if they were to shift the bags around a lot. I like to give ppl every chance of success in the early stages But cheers for the offer 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
