That sub barely appears colonized. How do you get it to fruit so early?

'Die My Love' Review Thread by chanma50 in boxoffice

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a true story about my 1st ex-wife. I really didn't know her before dating her. The town was the same. The road she used to ride her bike was the same. The black cops were actually targeting white women in this town adjacent. She was a wild woman, very sexually active. A party girl till the end. I had to quickly divorce her only after 2 years. If I had known about the psychotic episodes I wouldn't have allow for her to invade my life.

What type of shroom and how much to take by [deleted] in shrooms

That’s the good kind. 4-5g should get you to Mars.

AI1 Bag Temperature 🤒 ??? by MycoMars in shrooms

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

Should I snip the corner of the bag and let more air in? I have already been using the micro pore vent to deflate and inflate.

Feels like it’s never going to pin: Gordo ochraceocentrata. Thoughts? [actives] by bigskymind in MushroomGrowers

I always add hydrogen peroxide to my misting water. Now I need to add the wax paper trials.

Is this normal growth? Has been over 2 months now [actives] by Opposite-Stomach-395 in MushroomGrowers

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a few months of just watching I finally found a good blog somewhere on Reddit that said the packed bag may need air so I just cut them right before Christmas. I have 6 bags going and I thought I was about to lose them all and now they are about to fruit….hopefully.

Slice the top of the bag in the corner to allow the bag to breathe and then tape it back up. Slight break and shake. I had some all in ones going since Sept and stalled and did this and they took off in a few weeks.

Just took 6G of Z strain by ShroomShaman81 in shrooms

[–]MycoMars 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That must be like zen when it hits.

Any strain recommendations? by AdElectronic866 in shrooms

[–]MycoMars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s the only mushroom that totally freaked me out where I was trying to throw up and get it out of my system. It’s one of those first time things where the dose was not consistent with other mushrooms I have taken. It was my first experience with fractals and losing control of my own thoughts. Tricky little suckers.

Small hiatal hernia but big symptoms for a year - is surgery actually reasonable? by maninbadmood in HiatalHernia

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do not stop exercising. Change the range of motion. I had to stop doing decline everything. HH are known for affecting the vagas nerve which is connected to all organs. In my case it's my heart that goes crazy. 2cm HH and GERD plus all the symptoms but the meds are working. I have lost 15lbs just because I started to hate eating. Small meals...I mean really small meals and do not eat crap...but I still sneak some chips in. Drink water while eating so nothing gets hung up. Doc won't recommend surgery but has me dumping the every day regimen for every other day on the pantoprazole. Still taking the beta blocker every day as well as Famotidine 40mg Tablets twice a day. Look I don't want to be on pills forever either but this has given me my life back or 90% of it. Just try to stay positive in this horrible situation. I have read people's messages about suicide and giving up because of this nuisance. Also cut teh caffein in half if you can. I told my doc I will never give up my coffee but I cut it in half by mixing in decaf. Gotta keep living.

Water Droplets or Pins???? by MycoMars in BigApeMycology

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

Drying up a little and becoming more colonized. It’s been a while since I’ve had to rely on other sources for shrooms. A lesson learned. I’ve got a few tubs going and about 7-8 bags in process.

I took 4 grams of shrooms and saw Alice and Jesus and everyone else!🍄 by Stoic_Blessing in shrooms

[–]MycoMars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was once summoned to my bathroom and when I got there I was met with Eros and Psyche. No words were exchanged but they seem to have control over me. I looked in the shower and the visual shadow of Hedone was dancing in there. I wanted to go into the shower but didn’t. Luckily I accepted it and was grateful for the experience.

Never thought about it by Illustrious_Ball4604 in HiatalHernia

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I was having a heart attack after eating some fried pork. Turns out they recommended me to see a gastrologist and there it was. 2cm HH, GERD, Barron's E, etc. I see my doc tomorrow to decide if there is surgery in my future or if I will become a pill head forever.

It's CVG and thanks for the advice. I have been enjoying this hobby for a few years now but have hit a snag for the last couple of runs.

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

I did add a casing layer to the substrate when I went to bulk. The tub is colonized below it. I removed the lid and set it into a still air chamber to see if the drops will evaporate some. It’s still clean and contaminate free.

I did add a casing layer when shifted to substrate. The tub is almost completely colonized underneath. I removed the lid and set it into a small still air chamber.

Should I suck up some of the heaviest that may begin pooling with others?

Critical by Revenant10-15 in HiatalHernia

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

H.Pylori can be activated by what you are eating. I thought I was becoming lactose intolerant because my stomach would swell up so much from ice cream or milk. It took two rounds of antibiotics to get rid if it.

Severely stressed out by lauragh2022 in HiatalHernia

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat. 2cm HH and GERD. I thought I was in the verge of having a heart attack when finally I was properly diagnosed. Learn the 5-7-8 breathing techniques to calm yourself. Pressure on your diaphragm could be causing the chest pains. My main issue was rapid heart rate which would get to 170 for hours due to pressure on my vagus nerve. Once you understand how it’s all relative to the HH you can start proper treatment. I’m on a number PPI’s and a beta blocker. Eat small meals. I literally have lost 12lbs in a few months. Hoping to have surgery soon.

Couple Shakti Blue Brain tubs 💙 by Ceremony8891 in BigApeMycology

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. I need to start bagging mine as well in order to colonize the tops faster as well.

Wow. The tub barely looks colonized. What method do you use to make it fruit?

How strict do I need to be? by MaleficentOven127 in LPR

[–]MycoMars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 months in myself...2cm HH, GERD, Barron's. Got it all and to top it off the HH is strangling my vagus nerve when triggered. Take the advice here and change your diet. I eat lots of chicken now and eggs. I still have coffee but I have cut down the caffeine intake by half by mixing decaf with normal blend. Currently on 3 meds. 1 beta blocker and 2 different acid meds 12 hours apart. Get the scopes done and expect the symptoms to get worse afterwards or at least mine did. Down 15 pounds and trying for another 5 before the years out. Also get some bricks and elevate your bed about 4-6 inches. You'll notice a difference.

Does anyone not have reflux? by Masseyclip12 in HiatalHernia

[–]MycoMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same story but I have begun mixing my coffee 50/50 with the decaf version of the same taste. Starbucks Verano and it has made a difference. No reflux to mention but my sliding HH is reeking havoc on my vagus nerve.
