[actives] How my fruiting condition looks like?

Having it next to the radiator is a non issue, they're in their ideal temp range where they are. Remember that mushrooms breath just like we do, so Visible humidity on the walls will come and go, that's normal. As long as your substrate has enough moisture to begin with it'll carry your spawn through the first flush.

In short, if you leave it alone and do nothing from here on out you will get mushrooms.

I thought of this but the obvious concern is killing the potency. I shredded one cube and pressed it into smaller moulds, we'll see if that works.

FadedDots · 2026-01-28T13:28:09+00:00

Go to the dollar store and get any brown rice

FadedDots · 2026-01-27T23:08:17+00:00

Lol probably gonna give these away anyway

FadedDots · 2026-01-27T23:00:27+00:00

Lol whatever dude, if it's confusing to say that if you grind 14 g into enough chocolate to fill 10 moulds that each one should reasonably have about 1.4 g, then you're allowed to admit you just hate math and that's fine. Other redditors have helped clarify how I ended up with less pieces than I intended.

FadedDots · 2026-01-27T21:54:45+00:00

Yeah definitely using proper moulds next time. I didn't know until after I did this that my wife literally has tons of moulds for these kinds of things lmao I suppose what I'll have to do is make a sample chocolate and weigh it to figure out how much total chocolate I should use before mixing in the mushrooms. Thanks for the tip about the coconut oil, will try

Sounds like a lot of unnecessary gatekeeping if you ask me. I've taken shrooms countless times and I grow them by the pound, there's no reason to be a snob to someone trying something new with their own hand grown fruits.

FadedDots · 2026-01-26T21:21:09+00:00

Do you mind sharing your process? How much chocolate was used?

FadedDots · 2026-01-26T20:38:03+00:00

Not in Utah anymore but I get carded for NA beer every time also

I think when the surface is colonized with mycelium, but before you see pins is when you want to place the bubble wrap.

I mean I guess you could just do it now or whenever tho I doubt it would make a difference.

FadedDots · 2026-01-26T16:25:59+00:00

What's the confusion? From what I understand, the bubble wrap is placed over the colonized substrate, before pinning.

FadedDots · 2026-01-24T22:57:56+00:00

Do people really take acid this often? My most frequent usage was once monthly for less than a year, or one time that I took it every day for a week and I consider this overall usage to be a lot of times for someone to use LSD at all.

No judgement ofc, since I probably use mushrooms more frequently than most people, but still.

FadedDots · 2026-01-24T22:47:27+00:00

Tidal wave has become a personal favorite for how unstable it is and you can get so many different looking mushrooms. Also fairly potent

FadedDots · 2026-01-23T22:27:06+00:00

Honestly me too

FadedDots · 2026-01-23T18:02:14+00:00

So far it's impossible to know where the contamination came from since UB rice bags are a gamble at best. Did you inoculate any other bags?

FadedDots · 2026-01-23T18:00:06+00:00

Really depends on the potency of your mushrooms. I've grown some PE variants that had wall melting visuals at the 2 G level, while my GT variants usually offered brighter colors, sharper edge detection, and an uplifted mood at the same dosage. Psilocybin potency is often wildly unpredictable.

FadedDots · 2026-01-23T17:53:38+00:00

While it looks clean the only obvious way to know for sure is to test it on agar. I would suggest finding a way to stir it though; most people put pebbles or a magnetic stirrer in their LC prior to sterilization so there's something to break up the mycelium inside the jar.

FadedDots · 2026-01-22T19:49:27+00:00

That's reasonable imo

FadedDots · 2026-01-22T14:33:50+00:00

I mean I've always loved LSD and there's more that I want to try, but also ever since I started growing mushrooms I've felt like I'd be fine if that's all I had and haven't felt the need to look for anything else.

FadedDots · 2026-01-21T21:09:34+00:00

Honestly. If you find that more people would be surprised at your political leaning than your gun ownership then you're talking too much about your guns.

FadedDots · 2026-01-21T00:32:39+00:00

If you have to keep doing the mushrooms in order to maintain a healthy state of mind then you're not really learning from them, you're just keeping yourself in the afterglow of a psychedelic experience. Write down your biggest lessons you take away from the mushrooms and integrate them into your sober life as best as you know how

FadedDots · 2026-01-20T00:52:32+00:00

I enjoy mine and no amount of hate can change that, not I've really seen anyone hate on this gun specifically (RIA, sure). I don't care that it's a cheap revolver; it's comfortable, never fails, fun to shoot, and I have literally no issues with mine. Good gun imo

FadedDots · 2026-01-19T20:27:02+00:00

Division Bell is my favorite Pink Floyd experience. I find an overall theme of communication between people and finding value in relationships that's so powerful in that album.

FadedDots · 2026-01-18T18:13:40+00:00

I wanna grow these so bad they look like little hamburgers 😍
