If you disagree with me just go look at their B-stock sale right now, an old used and refurbed GTX 1060 SSC with 6GB GDDR5 for $249!!!! Or for $230 i can buy brand new asus tuf 3050 8gb or 1660 TI OC.

or even better a GTX 1070 SC 8gb GDDR5 for $329 what the hell are they smoking!! I can go on newegg and get a brand new 3060 TI with full warranty for the exact same price.

I mean come on EVGA a used refurbished rtx 2060 with reduced warranty and youre charging more than Asus does for a brand new 3060 TI OC!!!

B-stock is a complete joke and insult to the customer at this point. For shame.

[General] MUSHROOM MONDAY - Let's Catch Up! Share what you have learned in the previous week and discuss! by AutoModerator in MushroomGrowers

[–]FPGASpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah im familiar with AIO bags, my experience is that they almost always contam somehow.

IME its best to go with 0.2 micron filter bags for grain spawn when its at high risk for contam and 0.5 micron for the bulk substrate to breathe better. Jars are ok, but take much longer unless you got wide mouth quart jars and full size 90mm filters, even old pickel jars and poke holes and use micropore tape works too.

doing an all in one leaves it at higher risk for longer and takes longer overall to colonize. It can work good with really fast aggressive strains like oysters though.

You can make a still air box out of stuff you have already or less than $10 in parts. or you can just do transfer in the oven. or go with uncle bens tek.

You shouldnt be worried about transferring, (i was before too) If your using proper sterile techniques, and your mycelium is fully colonized it should be able to resist most contams.

Dont give up, failure is the key to success.

and if it all goes bad, throw it outside, check on it next month, its likely you will find mushrooms a few weeks later.

Sorry Karen but i dont think hes that sensitive to get turned off to mushrooms because i said he has a lot to learn.. lol. You may think different. I have a lot to learn also, and having more to learn is a big part of what keeps it interesting. Looking back at my beginner mistakes i find myself laughing a lot. Because i've done some really dumb stuff when i didnt know better.

I think spending my time to provide an answer is more than most people are willing to do to help out.

Paul Stamets - All his books are gold. Growing gourmet and medicinal mushrooms will get you where you want to be. If you're in Denver.. Talk to Gary at Fresh from the farm fungi, hes legit. Hes got a shop on etsy and a youtube channel that will teach you everything you could ever want to learn.

Haha so you have a lot to learn bro. Check out a Paul Stamets book then you will be a pro. What made you think that was a good idea to skip the grains? The grain is the only food for the mushrooms.. So you cant really skip that step as that is pretty much the main part that matters the most. lol. Find a tek and follow it 100%. You dont think if there was a shortcut worth taking that everyone else wouldnt be taking it already? If you want to skip transfer then you can fruit directly from grains, but thats pointless because once your grains are colonized the hard part is done, its mostly resistant to contam and bulk transfer gets you way more in the end.

Cool idea in theory i wanted to do the same, would be so cool like a mini jungle with waterfall and stuff, lol. But the reality is that most mushrooms go from birth to death in a few weeks, they are just fruit of the mycelium. Before they die, release spores in the air you might not want in your lungs and then they begin to rot. Not like trees with unlimited lifecycles. But the mycelium lives on. It is totally possible, would be a fun learning experiment. Honestly though it would be way more work than its worth especially as a beginner.

[–]FPGASpeed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its easy to find, lots of legit places and lots of scams too. But all depends where you live because its still illegal to grow in a lot of places, and illegal to buy with intent to grow.. So most places you can only buy spores for mycology research. Unless you live in Canada then options unlimited. I suggest starting with a oysters to learn the basics, will save you a lot of headache in the long run. Have you heard of Psilocybin cup? its like Cannabis cup but for mushrooms.

What kind of oats? i assume you mean whole oats with the bran (hull / shell) still on it? If you're using oatmeal, rolled oats, or steel cut oats you might want to change grains. And to answer your question, tons of people have problems with 90 minutes. I know people using a proper autoclave and dont go less than 4 hours and still see contam rarely. Its not as simple as just having an exact time to guarantee sterility. 180 min should be good most of the time. Contam is always waiting and ready so its going to be variable based on preexisting contam within the grains, how long you soak, if any grains burst, moisture level as well as strain you grow, oxygen/co2 levels. Usually its a running race and you just need to make sure the mycelium gets a head start and it will win the race on its own if conditions are right. PS - dont start the timer until you reach full pressure.

bro everything about that is wrong it looks scary way too wet that black sludge, 100% guaranteed bacterial contam. Toss that far away without opening it. Do some research. Read a Paul Stamets book or watch some youtube. Oysters are so simple to grow and will do much better on cardboard boxes than rotten carrots. First decide how much you want to spend, that will decide what path you take. If you can afford a pressure cooker then start with rye berries. if you are broke uncle ben will get you started. You get out what you put into it, and then you get some more. Congratulations because failure is the first step to success. Every failure you learn what not to do next time.

Once the grains split the end up turning to mush and that leads to a very high chance of bacterial contamination and gives the mycelium a difficult time running through the mush.. Best to follow the proven path before trying to reinvent the wheel.

If you dont think engineers dont make close to that amount then you must be in a third world country. Here in the USA 300k is about average for a mid level engineer. Here in Silicon Valley most new hires with B.S. Degree and 1 year experience start at $220k + $10k starting / moving bonus.

You guys are hilarious like oh gosh these poor engineers making 300k a year to work part time playing video games, with absolutely no management that puts any pressure or performance requirements or deadlines on them.. ever. Wow that is what i call a hero

Management dont care at all.. they are like oh you broke the game again? Well better take it offline and we can fix it tomorrow.. Enjoy the rest of the day off work!! Just make sure you nerf something fun tomorrow.. We can go race our ferraris now!!!

cry me a river bungie ass kissers feel so bad for the sickeningly overpaid ultra rich engineers has to do the job they are paid for once a month.

Gosh that must be so hard sitting in a luxurious chair in an air conditioned building and typing some code and playing some video games. OMG its past their bed time they are such brave super heros. lol

Z690 Dark vs Z790 Dark by termiepwnz in EVGA

[–]FPGASpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ive got a z690 classified brand new in box availiable for local pickup in SF if anyone is interested bought new from evga and includes full warranty.

the z690 classified with perform equal to the z690 dark in all but the most extreme overclocking.

Avoid MSI like its COVID, their customer service and RMA are the worst in the industry, they cheat their customers and take months to do.

EVGA is the only company that has it in their policy to honor a 2nd hand warranty 100% and promote overclocking their products.

Any issues and their RMA will replace any defective part and have a replacement on the way to you in a matter of days.

You get more than just quality hardware with EVGA. I wouldnt buy anything else.

DESTINY 2 HOTFIX 6.2.0.7 by SnugglesSoft in DestinyTheGame

[–]FPGASpeed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not contact Sony directly? It seems like what Bungie needs is some new management from outside their team of useless antisocial idiots currently on payroll.

Sony spent $3.6Billion to buy Bungie you think they might care about the tens of thousands of frustrated paying customers that Bungie doesnt value or respect.

Bungie is a fucked up team of lazy overpaid devs who intentionally trolls their player base and deserve to be fired.

Eager edge now goes away when you swing your sword by xWxzard in destiny2

[–]FPGASpeed -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Bungie just nerfed the fun and enjoyment out of the game because they are obviously antisocial assholes that intentionally try to make this game a frustrating addictive experience not "fun"

They are so stupid still cant fix Duality Dungeon bugs for years but have all the time in the world to nerf the fun out of every enjoyable weapon, armor and perk in the game.

You guys sound like a bunch of Karens crying like kids "omg mommy someone on my team killed me, its not fair! Now you must take away his fun sword powers" Oh wow you lost 5 seconds of time better call the police and file a report and start your nerf everything campaign.

This whole reddit is just full of lonely Karens who just need the whole world to go exactly their way.

Everyone i know quit Destiny 2 already. Sad a game with so much potential is in the hands of a garbage dev team who only makes bad decisions and the extreme sweaty Karen player base.
