I'm really hoping to be making a new batch of cakes soon (Like within the next week). The problem is I don't have a way to sterile the jars. I wanna do one more BRF grow from the start. Then I really want to attempt a bulk grow. Thing about it is, spring time makes me really want to explore my mind. But I don't have a deep enough pot with a lid to "steam sterilize" the substrate. I could go buy one, but if I buy anything, I will buy a PC and then I'll have one to make bulk subtrate with anyways... F*ing money haha.

I'm getting my verm and BRF tonight.
Maybe someone can help me with this. Which one to buy?
#1 - For now - BRF only - "canner" to steam sterilize my BRF mixture.

#2 - Not PC - just a steamer - I guess I can only use this for BRF too. Probably not the best bet.

#3 - Stovetop PC - I could use this for any substrate in the future.

How big do I need if I want to do 6 1 pint jars at a time? Any other suggestions? $40 budget and able to buy local?

Well I ended up finding and borrowing a steamer from a buddy for this run of BRF.
Yesterday I mixed up a batch of BRF substrate and steam sterilized the six 1-pint jars, and let them cool overnight.
This morning I got them noc'd up! I didn't take any pics during the process, but I will post any progress that is made

Within 5 days there is already visible mycelium growth in all 6 of my jars! (Last time I did this, I bought pre-made jars and they took a few weeks before I saw any growth). So far looking good.

GT MONO TUB
(First day put into fruiting conditions)
Fisrt flush :
~2.25oz if i remember correctly... i KNOW for a fact it was over 2oz
here was a big one i had bigger but i recently deleted all the evidence off my comp i too most of them from my grow log on another site. My biggest GT dried was on my 4th flush and it was 9.7 grams dried when it was fresh it was longer than my laptop and the cap was about the size of a pint glass' rim maybe a little bigger... the tub yielded 8.5-9 oz's cracker dry
