    First shroom experience

    Saves you money if you don't need as much to have a good time. Compared to weed, cultivating shrooms is easy and a lot less chance of getting caught. (no purchases that could flag you, power consumption, odor, space etc.,) I've gotten a lot of useful information from shroomery.org but I would...

    Shrooms not working

    Some people gulp them down because they hate the taste so much. Not to get too graphic, but I've done that before and ended up passing partially digested material. Since then, I've made sure that I chew them up really good to make sure it is all absorbed.

    what is the most acid you have ever eaten and what was the exp like?

    I'm not sure if this describes my experiences. I have experienced the thought loops that are characteristic of "ego loss" but I rarely have memory loss even on large doses of hallucinogens. My sense of the passage of time and the continuity of events has been altered while on hallucinogens, but...

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    No, this is the substrate. The casing was 50/50+.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    This was adapted from a method I saw on shroomery.org. The substrate was: 1/2 brick of coco coir 12 pints of vermiculite 4 pints of brown rice flour 4 pints of bird seed 8 cups of water 2 tablespoons of lime This was enough for two of these tubs.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    I suspect that the uneven flush is because the substrate was not mixed enough. But at this point, I'm curious how to go about preparing for a second flush.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    If anyone is interested, here is the progress with this tub and tek.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    Cool, that is something to consider for the next tub, this one obviously can't be retrofitted. I'll post another pic of the progress, they are moving along nicely.

    First time A+ mushroom mycelium growth

    I've seen this before and it seemed to have been caused from a lack of evaporation action. I did plenty of FAE and withheld misting for a while and that seemed to have caused the mycelium to knot up and start pinning.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    Here is an update. The tub as it is seems to work okay. This is with no misting or fanning. It is only opened to check on the progress and to shake off excess condensation from the lid.

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    Thank you. The tek I was learning about was a mono tub method from shroomery.org that claims no misting or fanning is needed. That seemed strange to me, but I'm no pro so I withhold judgement.

    what is the most acid you have ever eaten and what was the exp like?

    I just checked out chill trax on tunein, that is indeed the vibe I like on psychedelics. Thanks for mentioning it. Although I'm not into new age culture, I do also like new age ambient radio on pandora.

    what is the most acid you have ever eaten and what was the exp like?

    I prefer ambient music with no lyrics when I'm tripping.

    what is the most acid you have ever eaten and what was the exp like?

    I'm not very familiar with measurements for LSD other than eye droppers and paper. But the most I've ever had at once was from a dropper. One drop in the eyes, and a little puddle of drops pooled on the skin between the thumb and index. It started off fairly normal with flashing colors...

    Too much or too little ventilation?

    I'd like an opinion on this fruiting chamber. Is this too much or too little ventilation? If it matters, the climate this is used in has high humidity and it will be used for monotub-tek.

    Sodium percarbonate

    Thanks for the information! I guess I'll just stick with what I normally do.

    Sodium percarbonate

    I almost never get contamination using my current method but I was curious about this chemical because it is rinse free. I figured that since it is harmless to yeast fungus that it may also be harmless to PC.

    We do grow in HS

    It is about four weeks in. I know, I should be taking notes but with all my notes from brewing beer, inoculating jars, making spore syringes and making mushroom extract it completely slipped my mind.

    We do grow in HS

    My previous attempts at cultivation were total failures but I think I've learned from my mistakes. Check out my white rhino.

    Sodium percarbonate

    I've been using alcohol for sterile technique for spore samples and syringes but I've recently started home brewing and for that I'm using sodium percarbonate. I'm thinking of using it for mushroom cultivation. Has anyone else used this in mushroom cultivation? If so, what were your experiences...
