Sit back and relax, and welcome to the shroom Lab

This is very nice to see, I am planning on growing shrooms one day, but I still have much to learn. Thanks for making the topic.

Good shit.

Those Golden Teachers are a great strain to study. They sure taught me a lesson!!!

[flex40]

hey roksoc. thanks for stopping by! your grow was certainly an inspiration. Do my cakes look normal so far.. always good to get another Mycologist's input.. also, how long do you think before i see some pins... its been a couple days since they have got real fuzzy and started in the veg. container last thursday.

Janurary 10th 2007

starting to see a couple white points forming out with black/brown tops.. i think we have our first pinning!

[ElDust]

That looks quite easy to grow, easier than marijuana for shure. Is it?

[roksoc]

congrats on the pinning u seem to be doing a great job so far.

[flex40]

Thanks! I will try and get some more pictures in the next couple of days. The terrarium was collecting A lot of water. so i constructed a drainage system that seems to be working really well right now. Finally the perlite is doing something more then just bein' quick sand lol

I guess it can certainly be considered easier as there is a marked lack of human input on the grow cycle. You just need different tools (pressure cooker, etc) and the knowledge of how to keep your work area EXCEPTIONALLY sterile which is key in the reduction of contaminated jars..touch wood so far, i have 36 jars on the go and no contaminents

I've never done shrooms but due to lack of shrooms up here this summer i was sure looking at lots of kits to grow some, looks like they could be a hell of a profit GL on your grow!~ Keep us posted and I'll be watching this grow very heavily!~
