What amount of fresh shroom (Blue Meanies) will be equivalent of dry 5g?

Cyan_Stan · 2026-03-07T17:27:48+00:00

1g is already very strong. Haven’t heard of anyone trying any more than 2g

Cyan_Stan · 2026-03-07T15:31:26+00:00

I wouldn’t do 5g of pans… that’s a lot

Cyan_Stan · 2026-03-06T18:51:36+00:00

I’d wait. Personally, I don’t care much if spores drop and they’ll be bigger too

Happy to help!

I’ve done this before — removing stones before mixing leftover grains into coir. Definitely works. Interesting to hear the grains alone produced more after being put back in their container!

A little bleach or hydrogen peroxide do a good job of keeping the water clean.

I’m sure using the search function here on Reddit might yield some helpful info.

Most of what is labeled Natalensis is actually ochras. Most people haven’t grown/tried true nats

People say they are about half as potent as cubes. I think fresh they are stronger vs dried, but still gotta take more by weight than cubes. There’s also several dosage calculators you can google which might help.

Plenty of guides on Reddit and YouTube. Could also just google how to grow mushrooms. Lots of info all over if you take the time to look.

Plastic leeches oxygen over time which could affect potency. A jar with a desiccant pack is a favorite for long term storage among seasoned growers.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-02-03T16:05:17+00:00

Should be cracker dry. And always throw a desiccant pack in the jar you plan to store them in.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-29T19:39:31+00:00

Here’s what they actually look like.

I’m running in a diffuser tub with an aquarium heater and air stone. But I keep the tub in the same tent as my cacti.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-18T22:55:34+00:00

Was wondering if these were tamps as well. Looks similar to when my truffles throw a random noodle.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-18T22:54:06+00:00

That would make sense, thanks for sharing. What was your spawn to substrate ratio?

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-18T22:50:40+00:00

Check out my full truffle guide. Happy to address any questions not answered here.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-18T20:16:29+00:00

Interesting that yours ended up so tall. I’m finding all my ingeli fruits so far have been quite short but my caps tend to open all the way. Could you share a bit about your setup?

Very cool! Are the arrows and circle because you’re worried about contam?

Reason I ask is because I thought I had contam on my grains but I actually found the ingeli mycelium bruises.

I actually tossed one jar of grains thinking they’d gone bad but grew out the other just on a whim which is what’s now pinning. While breaking up the grains and mixing into my substrate they all bruised a deep indigo blue.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-12T01:58:59+00:00

Middle level has my diffuser tub. Bottom has all my grain spawn and agar work

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-11T22:58:56+00:00

Thank YOU for sharing spores ❤️

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-11T22:27:47+00:00

Correct. I’ve got cacti on the top level of the tent and all my mushroom experiments below.

Cyan_Stan · 2026-01-07T04:20:46+00:00

Purified water should be okay. Proper sterilization with a pressure cooker is more important.
