what is a good site to get shrooms and supplies?

there is no need for that, I only had 2 jars contam out of over 4 dozen jars, just flame and let it cool off on an alcohol soaked paper towel.

I disagree with spores101. But too each their own.

Odds are you yourself were the biggest cause of contamination, actually 95% of it is you. Where did you get your syringes/Prints? How did you prepare(STEP BY STEP)? Did you incubate? How were you providing gas exchange? If you could answer those it would save you a lot of time and money.

Don't even mention Mushbox, he rips of noobs for his own fame. Fuck him and never mention his name again.

Mycrotopia.com is the best site for your grow supplies. They got everything that one needs. Good guy too.

The fucked up ting is you guys are serious. Hippie3 rips off people to the death and he doesn't prepare his spawn consistently every time, sometimes he soaks his grain, others he just adds water in and PCs it as is so water content will be wrong every other time. I can go through every single item and give you 1-3 different reasons NOT to buy it. If anything like I said, order from shroomery sponsors.

it realy isn't all that hard to start from scratch without a kit.

While at the pharmacy get some 3% peroxide (cheap as can be stuff that, like cents), and the highest proof alcohol you can get to disinfect outside of jars and hands etc.

I agree with everything you said however with the alcohol and peroxide(Peroxides only role in mycology is to melt cobweb mold on site which can be prevented with lots and lots of air exchange. You want 70% alcohol as it lasts longer because there's more water, there's more evaporation time, it's preferred not only by mycologist but biologist and scientist as well.

I just felt the need to make this a separate post...

I think you had a bad spore print, it is the only way someone taking care like that would have such bad result... jees, I don't even do much effort apart from the still air box and get at least 50% success, usually more.
There is of course little practical things like flame sterilizing the needle between doing each jar...

If you are having a lot of toruble get the transkei from sporeworks....

It is a pretty wild strain usually growing in cow dung... I have seen it stunt and overgrow trich a few times now.... really magic mushies.. and pretty too. (Oh and their effect is certainly not plain cubie like)

Had to fix your post of errors. Also, consistent potency of psilo rely in genetics, not in overall substrate(it's like the same myth that white rice won't produce active mushrooms because there's no nutrients, not true, they will but performance is poor.). If you want consistent potency learn agar and isolate.

I might just be being lazy, but where can you buy the pre-sterilized filled jars? I always had a problem being sterile, I would get that spiderweb mold or other contaminates. No matter what I would try I would always get something contaminating my jars.

Lazy is a word that should not be used in mycology or acted out.





I don't recommend ordering from any supplier other than spores because it's not needed. You can get horse manure anywhere to whom has horses, you can get jars from walmart and everything else from nurserys. If you read a lot you won't have the problem of fucking up and you still save money.

For spores either ralphsters or sporeworks with consistant results.
For substrate bags order from mycoluv(a shroomery sponsor which does well in pasteurization as they don't leach nutrients).

dude sorry but you've put down like 4 suppliers that i haveand others have used for years and NEVER had a problem with....
either you have not a fucking clue... orrrrr your a competitor who puts down EVERY PLACE that comes up... and puts them down personally?

so when are you going to get around to what you are selling!?
what are you selling!?

I'm not a competitor at all, I don't even grow psilocybins nor would I. Hippie3 sells his shit hundreds of times more expensive than what they really are.
Mushbox is there for the money, he sells kits and shit that is not needed. Why would you spend $100-500 on a kit which you could spend 30x less that and get more.
Spores101 has been getting a bad rap by a lot of people I've been hearing.

I could go on about each item. Like I said, unless your some lazy poop head just make your own, it's a fun process and you can guarantee it's consistent. Just read, read, and read some more, the more you know the better off you'll be.

lol "what are you selling!?" that is beautiful. haha

HIppy3 is a dickwad... I will not elaborate though.

Hemlock + rep for pointing out drawing air into syringes = bad.

You can draw air into syringes, just do it while the needle is red hot. The spore solution needs to be shaken and it's hard to do if there is no air bubble.

Ok, so my question is. After i put the stuff in the jars and let it take, i think i heard on youtube that the guy said you can put some of the shroom "SeeD" into another jar, and like magic, now u have two jars of Mushrooms growing, im asking this, because it seems to me that the real cost is in buying the shroom gene's am i right ?

I don't know if he's still around but I've used Ralph in the past and he's always be reliable.

If he's still around he's probably still a sponsor over at the shroomery. I'd imagine that's the best place for info too considering this is a bud forum. (no offense to anyone here but there are probably more experts there eh?)

yup I ordered from ralph 3 weeks ago, the shipping was reall yfast too.

Why? Because he banned you from his site. LOL.

I'm not here to defend hippie3, i will say though that the dude isnt out to rip people off. Dude's a square, solid guy. I would go with mycrotopia over anything at the shroomery. IMHO> Not trying to stir up shit, the dung dealer can handle that on his own...
