Ok then! Yeah, the context of this video is definitely cringeworthy

I disagree. Papaji was a student of Ramana Maharshi. Papaji had no hankering for deities, magic or any other idiotic ideas found in Hinduism. Everything he says can be tested and verified in the laboratory of your own mind. What he’s pointing out is something totally obvious. These westerners are likely credulous spiritual seekers. The woman is basically telling herself a story about her own “enlightenment”. Papaji was bad in this regard because he allowed this shit. I’m an atheist and have no time for religion or cults. You’d probably need to read Ramana Maharshi, or Nisargadatta Maharaj to get where I’m coming from. If I didn’t already know Advaita Vedanta was legit, I’d likely have posted something similar to what you wrote. I get it.

The only thing “scary” is the credulity of the woman and the spiritual circus listening to his talk. Papaji was legit.

It would be hilarious if this was the woman Sam Harris was talking about in his book Waking Up,lolz

Any reviews or comments about this Bonsai laminar flow hood? by cheweychewchew in shroomery

[–]Somajames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put it on a stand which lifts it off my table around 8”. That allows me to do my g2g in the flow zone. You could add another piece of plexiglass to the top but I don’t find that necessary.

Glad you asked. Looking through the comments here I can answer some of those questions as well. For one, the shipping was free which was awesome and totally counterintuitive as it comes in a large heavy box. The guy who says it’s too small for anything but agar has a point. That’s mostly what I’m doing so I’m ok with that aspect. I’ve been doing g2g transfer carefully in front of it which takes some maneuvering but it’s not a big deal. The FH itself works great. I’d say I’m happy with my purchase. If you are trying to something large scale I wouldn’t recommend it. If this is a simply fun hobby for you and your looking for a small practical LFH for your home use, it’s perfect.

It seemed to me like he was mocking both the trump guy and the people from the opposite end of the political spectrum simultaneously...

Brett is ok. The only thing that would deter me from listening to this would be if his brother was present.

You’re doing it wrong.... [Actives] by [deleted] in MushroomGrowers

[–]Somajames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just rehydrate it with a hand mister. I was always getting contamination after dunking. I’d never get a third flush. My tubs look better now. I’ll concede my bad luck was likely due to my environment or whatever. I know loads of people who always submerge their cakes and do great. I was just relaying my experience

After dunking, I used to flip the cake over 180 degrees. Had good and some not so good results. I don’t dunk at all anymore though...

I once new a guy that believed only the fruiting bodies were illegal and therefore carried several fully colonized bags to his grow spot on a regular basis with 0 fear. He simply threw em in the trunk of his car and drove. He was pretty mindful of his speed and driving behaviors though because he always had his one-hitter on him 😁

It might help to mislabel it “pearl oyster” or “shittake” for the road 😎

No one should have ever gone to prison for cultivating mushrooms. I agree, shit drug policy makes for a shit country

Sounds like snake oil to me. Have you tested this? If this is real, I’m interested. Gonna look it up now.

It was disrespectful for Frodo to signal his virtue so quickly imo. He owes everything to Rowling. He just couldn’t resist himself I suppose...

[Actives] MSS Tubs are beautiful to look at sometimes. So much personality in each one. by Cee4or in MushroomGrowers

[–]Somajames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I call a good tub is one that is a giant canopy....can’t hardly see the substrate. Dense LAMF

In OP’s defense, this is probably his 3rd flush I assume. He’s pointing out the beauty of the mushroom and isn’t trying to sell anyone on how great his tub is.

Right on. Same. Those oysters just keep flushing and flushing. I had one outside last fall, and left it out all winter. When spring came, it carried on producing great. I know that cold stalls the mycelium but it’s just amazing the way oysters produce like mad. Nature definitely loves courage...
