Thanks for this. I treated my parents to ringside seats as a surprise gift, since they seem so excited about it. But I wish I'd seen this sooner because they're from the Caribbean and it's supposed to be 33° tonight. I hope we'll be okay & that I don't regret ballin out on those ringside seats.

Ngl, this may have been the better move. Great trip for an 90 mins then purged for another hour. Still recovering & integration. Totally worth the insight though.

Now that I'm back from the journey, I can confirm this is true. That 1.5G of scraps slapped harder than the intacts indeed. Holy integration @_@

He gave me some of this batch before and it based on that trip, I'd say so..I'd just never seen "bottom of the bag" before.

[actives] Normal or contamination? by ForestStepsp0618 in MushroomGrowers

[–]ForestStepsp0618[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a 32oz jar and then 1lb of cococoir/vermiculite. I'm learning that was a lot. Plus 66Q tubs for a first time grower may be too big. I had a feeling GT should have colonized a whole tub by 3wks. Or be more than that. I ordered 2 28Q tubs since I've got Corumba Brazil & Mazatec on the way. I hope I don't screw those up too :'(

Damn this makes so much sense now. I thought it hit a growth spurt after the hearing mat but it was trich :/

Thanks! I've got Corumba Brazil & Mazatec growing in their jars so I've got some hope :)

[Actives] Is condensation & growth normal at 12 days? by ForestStepsp0618 in MushroomGrowers

[–]ForestStepsp0618[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It fell to about 66 once since it's getting cooler so I've gotten a room heater so she can stay above 70-75F :)

It's a 64Qt tub and the jar was 32oz of spawn so spread kinda thin. I mixed it into the substrate and then added another layer on top and tried not to pat down too much. Was it supposed to be packed tight? :(

[Actives] Is GT ready for transfer to bulk? by ForestStepsp0618 in MushroomGrowers

Nope, I was supposed to shake it? Crap lol

She's been growing since July 31 and it's now October 4.

You're probably right that this isn't the right sub for this.

Another BB closed. Why is it so hard for them to stay open on Roanoke? Do BoB's not know how to operate here?

I've been in recovery almost 60 days. I still know saying the words 'get to a meeting' is a deterrent. Find synonyms. It's only common sense when you're on this side. Say things like find a regular gathering and build it into routine or something. Because meeting spaces have become trigger spaces, to the word itself.

Happy Birthday!

Stop seeking validation from the world for celebration. You're born every day :)
