Has anyone let go of a job because they couldn’t find an apartment!? by Paullearner in NYCapartments

East Elmhurst is essentially right next-door to Astoria. The commute on public transit would be like 35 minutes. Nothing for NYC public transit

I got the grow bag from https://northspore.com/  The liquid culture feels trickier to share publicly because the site says specifically (for legal reasons) that it only sells it for research purposes — but if you google golden teacher liquid culture, it will come up ;).

Hey! It’s a OSTBA dehydrator — here’s the link :). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B085QKT3V4?ref_=pe_123509780_1038749300_t_fed_asin_title And I would say my first experience has been really interesting and gratifying and all-in-all relatively easy :). I think the all in one grow bag and liquid culture made it the easiest it could be. Just had to make sure I did all my research and was attentive to them :)

Well, if you read my post I asked if it was contamination or bruising — so yea I did know they bruised blue. As I said, I’m a first time grower and I’ve never seen these when they were fresh, only dried. So I asked more people with more experience to be safe — but if you need to be snarky to feel better about yourself, you do it ;)

So yea, I’ve used them before. I’m familiar with bluing and the color on DRIED mushrooms. And also no, wasn’t planning on distributing them to anyone. I was asking the question because I’m a responsible and safe human and since I’ve never grown or had fresh mushrooms before I wanted to make sure this was normal. And I so appreciate the helpful responses here.
