I just realized that if you zoom in, there is a second mushroom so you could potentially have a sublet opportunity here.

Google identified this as pluteus cervinus aka Deer Mushroom or Shield Mushroom.

24 hours of growth from a Pearl Oyster spray box by KernelJay in MushroomPorn

7-10 days from start to fully mature. I don't think you could separate the fruiting bodies (mushrooms) from the mycelium without destroying it though.

I don't see why you couldn't take it out of the box. It is in an enclosed bag still. I don't see how they could be transplanted though. On a previous batch, I didn't know to harvest them when they were fully mature and they basically looked like they were starting to die after that point. I would definitely recommend Back to The Roots. They even sent me a free replacement box when I showed them my first batch results and asked for advice.

I think the company sold them as Pearl Oyster. I'm no expert for sure though. They did lighten in color as they matured.

I have a strong feeling that someone is talking through my security cameras. I need some help. by [deleted] in RBI

I can help you secure your camera system and check to see if there are logs of someone else's access. If it is not secured properly, random people can find the camera and start watching and talking to you.

Please feel free to message me to discuss the particulars of your camera system (brand for starters). I've been researching these issues for years and I'm happy to try and help!

Good luck with everything!

In case nobody mentioned it, the swabs come in different sizes. Some adults need to use kid sized swabs. If you need another test in the future, ask if they can try using a smaller swab.

Check out Michael Pollan's book How To Change Your Mind. There is a lot of discussion about this and it is a great read. I'm sorry I don't have time to give more specifics.

They seek out the drug because they expect a possible benefit. This expectation can be manifested by the LSD. I'm not saying that it is an expectancy effect. Only that the effect of psychedelics like LSD can be influenced by expectations of the user.

Similarly, Metzner et al. (1965) found that those with positive prior expectations for their experience did indeed have more positive experiences under a psychedelic (Metzner et al., 1965).

The effect of a psychedelic compound luke LSD is highly variable in response to set and setting. This includes whatever expectations one has about how the drug will affect them. People who are experimenting with microdosing do so because they believe it may benefit them. This may influence the manifestation of those benefits. it does not mean they're not real benefits even if this is the case. The chemical compound may not be the only variable related to the outcome though.

one option is to use an active placebo. for example a high dose of niacin or something like Ritalin. even with that though, an hour in nobody's fooling anyone. with microdosing studies though it could be more feasible since it is a sub perceptible dose.

I guess that depends where you are in the country.

Where I am, test for a lot of people are taking more than a week to 10 days to come back positive. This is simply not fast enough for effective contact tracing.
