I’m sure that meth is for personal use right? Right?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Absolutely. Synthesizing hard drugs is time consuming and a lot of hard work. Only I get to enjoy it.

No one gets my mushrooms either ;)

I just buy my substrate online. I’m far less experimental than most. I just want it to work in a consistent way that yields an amount I can predict.

What I really want to grow is Peyote or San Pedro, but the slow growth and lack of sun in my location would make that difficult.

Precolonized or just substrate? I wonder if a grow lamp would work. Pretty pricey though for electricity.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Just the substrate. I use the syringes I buy online because it’s the easiest method for me. I’m not actually sure pre-colonized would be “legal” for my “microscope” hobby. Ahem.

Mostly it’s just B+, which I enjoy and it’s simple to grow. Golden Teacher was also easy, but the yield was less.

I had such low yield with B+ or any other strains 🤪probs just my technique.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well, low might be relative to your expectations. How many grams did you want vs what you got?

I see some people on Reddit with huge-ass yields. Like, fist-sized caps. wtf. Ultimately, I got the amount I wanted to use out of it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I saw roughly 11 grams dried. Was expecting 3x the amount judging by everyone’s’ impressive grows haha.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Wow that is low. I got about 60g dry.

Did you have a pump keeping it moist?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

No but I misted it and fanned it as was the style back then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The good ole onion belt.

That’s probably why. I had a whole humidified thing and timed lights. It wasn’t expensive, and it came in a kit. Give it another shot.

Ooo pre-pasteurized manure bags with self healing injection holes. I’ve been using brown rice flour and coco coir 🤪

Whazzat? I’ve only met uncle Ben!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

Its the great grandfather of uncle Ben

Even though growing mushrooms is almost the easiest thing to do on the planet

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Exactly, grow your own.
