Just a little update...so the cake that didn't pin before, pinned late, without a dunk. The one behind it was pinning as I brought it out of the dunk

water boils at 195'f here

will this be a problem in sterilizing jars?

[ripper5]

Take what I tell you with a grain of salt because as I said I'm quite new at this myself but I would guess that the best thing to do would be to use a pressure cooker and then follow the directions basically you're probably going to extend the amount of time that you use to cook down and sterilize them the pressure cooker that I use is a bit small and will only hold seven jars comfortably so the directions talk about 12 pounds per square inch whereas in mushrooms they say 15 lb so what I do is I just double the cooking time in the pressure cooker from one hour to two hour and it seems to have worked pretty well

Just another pic

You have to split the mushroom open the stem is easier) in your glove box and use sterilized (i heat them the same way you do the needle of a syringe before you inject spores) tweezers to pull a small piece from the inside...where there arent bacteria or mold. Take all the same precautions you do for grain2grain transfer. I would have cloned them on the first flush but I didnt have rye ready. Now I have rye ready and no mushies yet. I also fruit in my glove box. lol
I let the PE go extra long this time and got tons of spores, not printed, just all over the 10 quart tub. I started with EQ but PE is just better.
PE gave me 18.5 grams dry. Last time I cloned the flush looked a lot more like yours.
In the winter I get really depressed here. There is hardly any sun.

ps...I have petri dishes and agar and have done it that way too. It just easier to rip a piece of stem out and drop it into a jar for me.

Ripper's project is most interesting. It is making me wonder if I should give it a try myself.

An interesting turn of events...

Instead of doing the hero dose, I decided to share with my brother a few weeks ago. He hadn't done 'shrooms for almost 30 years. He got hooked...asked me if I could get more...asked his boy to get some (college, ya know)...then asked if I could grow some...then got impatient and ordered a grow kit and syringes. So, we now have 18 jars inoculating: 5 Golden Teacher, 4 B+, 5 Mexican, and 4 Hawaiian.

Which brings me to another point...

I just started 2 different varieties...

Koh Samui Super Strain...

...and a full Cambodian

We tripped again this weekend...my nephew found some. But these were a very different type of buzz. Both had a similar body feel, but the mental buzz was different. Mine had been light, uplifting, giggly...while his were heavy, tiring, melencholy. I had only considered different strains to be different potency...hadn't even given a thought that the type of buzz could be different.
So...what's good?...what's not?

[bentech]

that Hawaiian seeds guy who posted that long story about the history there mentioned psycadelics a lot

got me interested in sorting out the different strains better now that I know theres one I don't particularly like
