Mushroom Cultivation

[Brokehoe]

10-14 days of being completely sealed and in the dark so that the substrate can colonize. Once you introduce oxygen, fruiting will commence

I only waited about ten days and temps were low low. I didn't have a great flush.
I can't wait to give it another go. Loving all the Info shared.
Edit: My ratio was 2 to 1 on the substrate to grain also. I think 1 to 1 is recommended.

@thenotsoesoteric your in my head man lol I bein a slightly younger 37 missed the oldie stuff a tad, buuuuut I'm a big electronic guy, trance techno and the sort, me and the ladies listen to it a lot was gonna go that route myself when I do hit the skies, should be pretty soon I'm hoping, spawned to bulk 4 days ago now and it looks like it's progressing pretty well, how do you know know when to initiate fruiting ???

Im 41 so just a bit older, just raised in midwest where older music reigned supreme. My brother lived in Cali and would bring punk music into my life but punk music ain't the best trip music, lol.

Cheers ?

So I just gotta start watching it about day 7 I'm guessing, when primordia start showing ill flip the top, update on the Jedi Mind Fucks- finally starting to see some action this one went much slower than the penis envy, gonna break and shake tonight and see if that helps speed things up a tad, got the pressure cooker in the mail yesterday, so went and grabbed a 50lb of whole oats so I can start working on the gourmets and get a few more active tubs up and running, got a plan to setup a ghetto fruiting chamber in the tent across from my lab and incubation area, progress is steady so far, just can't find any soy hulls around me to make the masters mix for the oysters and lionsmane, plenty of rice hulls so I may substitute and see how it goes

Belated trip report from last Friday March 18.

Was surprised I could convince my wife to give it another go so soon. She previously got a little queasy...

This time around, used 2 fresh lemons per person. 20min soak. 2.8g for her, & 3.2g for me. Strained the solids off of hers, and dumped them into mine ?.

She still got a little nauseous on the come-up, but it was a fantastic evening.

Ultimately turned the lights off and listened to the Hendrix Bold As Love album with my eyes closed....

Saw all sorts of trippy things, the most repeated being layers and layers of colored mesh/lace fabrics moving in front of one another.

At times throughout the evening, I felt somewhat speedy, with increased dexterity. Other times I was stumbling drunk...

About 4 hrs in, it was 2 hrs past my bedtime (on a work night ?), so I layed down to go to sleep, but the mushrooms weren't done with me yet. So I turned on a little more music and enjoyed the experience until I konked out - probably about 1 1/2 hrs later.

Can't wait to do it again!!! It's hard to carve out enough time in an evening, but I plan to at least once a month.

My 3.2g of Sombreros before hitting the coffee grinder for that Lemon Tek:

It's my first time growing or experiencing. The strain is Sombrero from ITW.

Am curious to read anyone's advice on mitigating the nausea for my wife.

Also interested in any psychedelic albums that people favor? Planning on trying to fit in more than one per trip...

I've been wondering about this one recently. Growing up, my whole life, I was always told that throwing up was a given when taking shrooms... It was part of the process with no way around it...or so I thought.

But, I 've tripped at least a handful of times now. Last time being this past Saturday. Just finished a bag of Golden Teachers. Only had a couple grams left so I soaked em first

(Right before soaking in lime juice, didn't have lemon, but I'm grabbing a bag of Steel Magnolia to try so I should grab some lemon juice)

But I haven't felt sick or vomited at all. Not once...well, at least not with the Golden Teachers. I did feel a lil nauseous the very first time (not sure what strain) but it was more due to me being weirded out about not only eating mushrooms but eating some dry/hard/crunchy-ass mushrooms that look and smell weird but makes people trip ballz! So, it was more psychological than a physical sickness. So I'm still a lil confused. Maybe I'm not taking enough to get it to that point? But, then again, I have leaned toward the lighter quantity approach...but I'm definitely taking enough to trip so? should be enough.

Reading that back to myself, kinda sounds like I'm complaining that I'm not throwing up ?, I'm not, as I'd prefer not to anyway! Just confused and curious.

I literally puke everytime the last time tho I took zantac I think that’s how you spell it about an hour before I ate mine and felt fine …I’ll have to test it again before I say for sure that it worked tho lol

Every single time? That's wild...or maybe regular??? Like, no matter the strain or amount taken??

Yup dude literally a half hour after I eat them every time I’ve tried everything to not but it still happens…I should add when I was younger I had stomach ulcers really bad so I do kind of have a sensitive stomach with certain things like Coca Cola if I drink it to fast I throw up lol so my input might not be the greatest lol

Thank you for that reply. Will keep working at this for her, and will post results if there's anything noteworthy.

Ya, the 30 minute thing is what I've always heard about the vomiting. But up to this point, for me anyway, that 30 minutes just marks when it starts hitting me. I guess I'll find out with the new bag I'm grabbing?

 

[Brokehoe]

I have never thrown up anytime I have eaten them. I guess I'm lucky

Golden teacher and her mutations for the win.
My wife hasn't had an issue with the white teachers I grew.

Ya, I don't have enough experience really to speak in it. But I blew through a half oz of Golden Teachers in about a months time and didn't feel sick once. Perhaps the GTs are easier on the gut than others is my guess ?

 

[UncleB]

@MO_Grow @Brokehoe
Next inoculation from scratch will now be GT for sure. Really appreciate the input (I'm sure my wife will too)

Golden Teachers ARE easier on the guts..Yetis are a Golden Teacher pheno.

And the stone is very very nice...not so spiritual...more bass beats and fun...Close your eyes and when the bass beat goes you say 100s of chiclets like a disco ball...

Your mileage may vary...Yetis are like centipede dragons made of chicklets...and slutty dancing boomers.

I have to wait a week Saturday...but im doing it AGAIN..

And i am going to read up on this kit and give it a go. Time to make the boomers..i can find some place that is nice and tidy

 

[Kold Kasiz]

I ran golden teachers and B+ and didn’t get sick at all. When i ate them raw the first couple times i could feel when they hit my stomach and it was unpleasant cramps for 10-15 min or so then the trip would begin and the stomach cramps went away.
I tried the lemon tek and it was night and day difference and so much smoother on all aspects.
I’m sure everyone is different as is each type of shroom. I hope you guys/gals find one that works best for you. Throwing up is no fun.

Interesting! So shroom strains have phenotypes just like cannabis...I was unaware of that.

Anybody have experience with Steel Magnolias?
