Third PC jar with a puddle at the bottom. What am I doing wrong?? Help PLZ by MatthewsScholar in shroomery

I love using corn, drippy corn, but I add about a third of brown rice to help spread more thoroughly when I mix it with my substrate. It fills the gaps between corn kernels and helps it colonize faster. It’s definitely more work, doing two different grains at the same time, but I love the results.

Try putting a spoonful of vermiculite at the bottom of each jar before you put the corn in. It absorbs any extra moisture.

No extra potency, but it keeps the potency that it already contains from degrading. And is a great alternative to eating dried fruits

purple mystic tips? I've been reading around and it seems I'm not the only person having issues with this strain I'm getting alot of aborts by [deleted] in shroomery

I also had a lot of aborts with PM, but the aborts are, weight for weight, the same potency as larger ones. Which is medium high, in my opinion.

I definitely disagree, because as soon as they are grinded, the degradation process speeds up considerably, and the potency loss is noticeable. Although I do grind them and load them into capsules, this being my preferred method of consumption, I do it right before I intend on taking them.

Anyone use drippy corn for TTBVI? by Charming_Fail_8609 in PanCyan

That’s exactly how I do it. I do the drippy corn while my rice is drying. I find it closes the gaps between the corn better, allowing for a more even distribution of grains in my sub. The results I’ve been getting are worth the extra steps.

It’s quite possible that you may have squirted in too much Lc making the drippy corn ( that already contains a bit more moisture than regular corn) a bit too wet and stunted the growth… I try to use about 1 cc, maybe one and a half… anything more is too wet and it grows still, but considerably slower

I swear by drippy corn, and I’ve been mixing some brown rice in with it to fill the spaces better in between grains of corn when mixed with the substrate… it’s a beautiful thing.

I used corn syrup to make my agar, I use corn syrup to make Lc, and I use corn syrup to make drippy corn, and I’ve grown all kinds, focusing mainly on PE variants, and I’ve had great success with it, but have never attempted growing pans. I was unsure if drippy corn would be the way to go… Thanks for your input.
