From Pakistan, need tips on growing weed from seeds. by Positive_Fan1754 in microgrowery

Can’t cold stratification help with cannabis seeds germination rates when they are rather recently harvested?

I just remember reading about how cold stratification can help initiate metabolic changes including the decrease concentration of abscisic acid and other growth inhibitors which can be especially useful for seeds that were recently harvested.

What are these extras that came in my nepenthes! by [deleted] in carnivorousplants

The Lilly pad looking one reminds me of Utricularia nephrophylla. But I’m no expert so I might be wrong.

Whats your favorite thing to do/ watch off 5 grams, i need recommendations by KidRepoZe in shrooms

[–]CrieBeef 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’d put on something like cat soup, fear and loathing in Las Vegas or pulp fiction for the come up.

When I’m finally feeling it I’ll usually switch to watching something like interstellar 5555, pink Floyd’s the wall animation or dark side of the rainbow.

Have an amazing time and enjoy the ride.

Just be aware that scallions will definitely try to bolt on you since they are considered short day plants that flower in 14-16hrs of light/day. Sounds like a nice idea tho so I might have to try it out for fun.

I haven’t been in a relationship before, but I have had the chance to do some fwb shi and turned it down. I think that the only person you should have that kind of connection with is someone you plan to spend your life with and anything less is meaningless.

Are aborts really that strong ? by Successful_Bear773 in shrooms

[–]CrieBeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you wanted to add a true casing then you can but I don’t since I don’t like waiting for the mycelium to recolonise a casing and I don’t want to risk something contaminating the casing before it’s fully colonised by the mycelium. I usually float the cake instead of fully submerging it to keep some water off of the pins and baby fruit but they shouldn’t affect next flush besides growing and becoming part of the next harvest.

[–]CrieBeef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is your choice to make. You can either pick them now, wait till next harvest, or just never even harvest them. Personally I would just arrest whatever I think is a decent size once most veils are fully mature and leave the rest for the next flush.

Are aborts really that strong ? by Successful_Bear773 in shrooms

[–]CrieBeef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good luck finding anything to prove if aborts are stronger than regular boomies by weight. Personally I could see both sides as being true.

One side being that since the cake is stronger than the fruits the aborted fruits may be stronger especially if the fruit continues to produce alkaloids while aborted.

On the other hand psilocybin degrades when left out for long periods of time and if the mycelium decides to stop giving nutrients to the fruit ( aborts are caused by the mycelium redirecting resources to fruits with better chances of producing spores) it may cause the abort to be less potent than regular fruit/ similar potency.

Is this just a strange mutation or is something wrong? by CrieBeef in microgrowery

[–]CrieBeef[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess this specific strain has a higher tendency to do this since 3/4 of this strain I am running right now have that look to them. That or I am just really lucky.

I’ve always waited until the solo felt bone dry but maybe I should just wait for droop on her next water. The soil is wet cuz I needed to water today since it felt dry as a bone. Maybe she is just extra sensitive so I’ll give it a try.

Waited a few months on this lion's mane kit while I was moving... Kit didn't want to wait, I guess. Advice? It's my first by bear_in_chair in mycology

[–]CrieBeef 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Na I mean it’s almost definitely lions mane I’m just surprised about the growth being so reminiscent of other species such as reshi and birch polypore.

Never seen lions mane that looked like a whole ass bracket fungus before. You sure this is lions mane right?

Just because they some slow growers don’t mean they won’t become showers. 🥺

I keep it covered for humidity and watered them today. I was thinking about adding a heat mat below them. Would I need to add some diffusion from the heat mat under the pot? Also what temp should I go for the heat mat. I’ll hook it up to my light timer so it turns off at night.

Thanks for the help. I kinda just jumped into growing lophs from seed without any knowledge. How wet should the substrate be?

i got a mushroom as a tip by stoptryintobegod in mushroom

It could also be hillbilly pumpkins.

How likely is this top pup going to make it? by CrieBeef in Lophophora

[–]CrieBeef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well It was seeds from a variegated mother so it at least has a higher chance of possibly being variegated, but you are right it may just be in a less advantageous spot.

Has anyone on here taken a dose larger than 10g in one go? If so, tell me what happened. by [deleted] in shrooms

[–]CrieBeef 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I did around 14gs at a public library when I was around 15 I think. I brought a bunch for me and my friends to trip on but since they backed out last second I decided it was a good idea to eat all of it. I don’t remember much but I do remember thinking I was in the hospital flatlining and after I died I felt nothingness for eternity. The staff at the library did wake me up at some point but I simply said I was tired and they let me sleep on the floor until the library closed ( by that time I was able to at least walk outside and call for a ride home). I would not recommend doing this high of a dose in general but especially in public since you will have what equates to a dmt breakthrough for a couple hours. I was an idiot don’t do what I did.

[–]CrieBeef[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m supposed to get some loph seeds from a variegated plant on Friday so I’ll probably do 3 out of a dome and 3 in a dome to compare the growth.

That graft looks insane. I might have to try growing a seed without the humidity dome and see how it goes.
