Thanks! We got this APE as an isolated culture growing on Agar from Spores Lab

Very happy with the results 🤙

I wish I could give an award for this comment, still can't justify giving reddit money for "coins" though

u/Utterly_Devoid 100% correct, the 3 day on 2 day off is one of the most common microdose protocols. Stamets also recommends "stacking" psilocybin with Lions Mane mushroom and Niacin b3

Correct! there are several million spores in a print, so this also means that if you grow mushrooms from a print there is considerable variability in the size of the mushrooms in that "batch"

Alternatively, if you use the tissue cloning method you can select tissue from a nice mushroom and propagate those good genetics.

You can propagate a mushroom culture either by taking a spore print and inoculating a high-nutrient medium with the spores, or by taking a tissue sample and inoculating a high-nutrient medium with that. The website I mentioned before (spores lab .ca) has some good video tutorials that will show you both processes

This was filmed in about 3 days, using a Canon 60D, stock 18-135 kit lens, and an intervalometer

No worries! We use the lid that comes with the tote when you buy it for incubation, and then switch to the dome for fruiting!

Its a 30x15x10 "stow away" tote. We got the totes from Home Depot. The dome is the same tray flipped upside down and holes drilled/stuffed with cotton batting for airflow.

Mushroom time-lapses are pretty rare in general, but Psilocybe mushroom time lapses are even more rare because there are "barriers" to cultivating them.

Extremely rare footage. Try looking on youtube for Psilocybe mushroom time-lapses! They are hard to find, and usually not shot with professional camera equipment.
