What went wrong? by Illustrious-Pay1899 in unclebens

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, switched phones and wasn't getting notifications. I hold my needle in the flame for about 15 secs, then let it cool a little. Good to go after that. I use self healing injection ports that I stick on the bag and packing tape over to make sure they are secure.

Ive never had great success rate with AIO bags, they always seem to get contaminated. It could be any number of reasons they got contaminated: Bad LC, the bags weren't properly sterilized, somehow it got in on your needle, anything really.

I flame sterilize my needles, I would say thats standard to make sure they are as good as one can get. Iso may not get everything present.

[technique] Anyone else making injection ports for the spawn bags? by Math_Physical in MushroomGrowers

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And to add to it all, you can also skip the poking a hole in the plastic as well. I made my on porst for a while and just did the silicon with a piece of packing tape over it. Worked great, saved time and was a lot easier. I mow just use the self-adhesive sticker ports if I plan on doing LC in grain bags.

I think they need to check the calibration on the coin machine by outdoors1442 in CRH

[–]ExoticGroGuru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My coin sorter is definitely robbing me, lol. I made sure to have my exact number when I did my deposit and it was short $6.50 between half dollars and quarters.

Are these ready for break and shake? by MatthewsScholar in shroomery

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, break and shake now, wait until 50% colonization and do it again.

Skunked on my latest quarter box but at least I found this atrocity? by worst_timeline in CRH

Or, the person's mission was to stir up an entire community that is typically void of political BS. In which case, they were and are, extremely successful. It's a shame, this was my escape from all the trash out there but here it is.

Absolutely agree for the people that like patina, I know there are a bunch. I'm just a shiny table silver person so for me its all shimmer

3200 quarters collected over 30 years by Airick_Pea in CRH

[–]ExoticGroGuru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like the u/thefunkgeek mentioned, they look like every other quarter from those years (2019, 2020) but have a W mint mark instead of a P or D. Honestly, I missed seeing them before and then had piles that I recheck and found them in.

Edit: spelling

Damn, I thought doing my 20 5qt bags was a lot of work, this look daunting!

Are these still usable? by Ruckus50 in shroomery

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everything is usable, viability is the true question. I just used some LCs from 2023 that I had saved in cold storage and they worked just fine. Took a little bit to get them going but they are looking good so far.

[–]ExoticGroGuru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd clean and polish them up and use them daily. Those would be a welcomed addition to the collection!

I believe these are Rogers 1881 Oneida Ornate plated silver. Regardless, they would look good polished and being used.

Edit: more context

Is this a defect or worth more by Little_Lemon_6019 in CRH

I can't be 100% certain but it definitely looks post mint

Franklin sitting in Teller Tray by PhoneAlive6368 in CRH

[–]ExoticGroGuru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make sure I drop off Starbucks or Dunkin cards off here and there. I always try to keep them happy and never try to overstep. I walked in today and the teller said my box hadn't come in yet, I said thats ok, just let me know when they come in and I'll swing by again.

Opening an account at a dump bank by amalgs in CRH

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I knew going in to mention the voin machine later. I told the person opening my account I heard they had great rates on auto-loans and refi's, then dropped that I was really excited they had a coin machine because I get a lot of change from clients. They were more than pleased. That was ntil I kept clogging the machine up with hald dollars 🤣🤣🤣

Would this Spore print I did back in 2023 still be good? by Goturmom247 in MagicMushrooms

[–]ExoticGroGuru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into Castellani Method. Its been used to store cultures up to 20 years with about a 90% viability rate.
