a mediocre shroom garden thread

[ANC]

yes beautiful visual ride .... I was actually trying to stay away from the tea just cause I know heat kills psilocybin...makes sense though that would take longer to break down if chewed......didn't really smoke up too much during ...wanted to be sure it was the shrooms working.... lil lemon juice in the tea would help??

Doesn't really make a difference, the tea works just fine, just use a low broil don't bubble the shit for 20 minutes.

Gotcha...... Heat it up real good to release the goodies ...... Stay away from boil....... I'll for give the tea a shot next time..... Is dosage about the same?? Just throw whole shrooms in or grinded be better??

yeah start with 2 or 3 grams, I cut it up a bit, but not so that straining is a PITA.

I noticed heat ant a big deal, you can boil them down to a paste and still get nearly the same trip once you dissolve that paste back into water. Point is, I think people share that psilocybin is heat sensitive with good intentions but it all probably sprouted from uncertainty.

Acidifying helps yes.

Have you tried the no failure w.b.s. tek off of shroomology?

I'm doing something similar.. I was just using black oil sunflower seeds with great success ( 7 day colonisation time)but the last 50 lbs bag I got wasn't black oil and(still sunflower)the seeds were horrible and my jars kept failing.. so this time I got a bag of wild bird seed mix.. I'm trying two teks with it.. one was the no failure w.b.s. tek where they removed all of the sunflower seed and no 12/24 soak time.. I was under the impression that soak time allowed endospores to partially germinate so they are easily killed during p.c.ing... ? Anyway I'm trying it,, first time I've done w.b.s. in your opinion which is better,, boiling the seed in diluted coffee ( so the coffee penetrates the seed)or just using grounds and mixing it with the seed during jarring?

Spent grinds from brew. Drink the coffee, the remainder in the grinds is plenty strong. 60 minutes cook time at around medium heat after it starts boiling is pretty good. No extra soaking. I had soaked plenty times but it was better for making cake type jars out of seed. For good grain spawn though it was just easier to skip soaking and get fast colonization still. I think the PC does an eextra amount of mmoistening and softening the grain. I also would note that I ppull the jars out while hot from the pc and shake around to ensure it is evenly moist and not a cake in the bottom. I think that's in the no fail tek also.

It is in that tek.. just looking to some insight from you... I've used the coffee water in the past and boiled it in with crack corn and it seemed to have helped but I only did it the one time so I cannot confirm if it really did it not.. anyway I'm going to give your way ago aswell.. .
