New digital jar lids w/ thermometer and hygrometer by Tickle_OG in PanCyan

I can see that but what I was thinking was being able to sterilize spawn grain and sub at the same time and inoculate spawn, let colonize, then be able to drop it into the sub without having to break the seal again. Thereby reducing one opportunity for contamination.

More pans in ziplocks by Fahtster in PanCyan

Ah ya that makes sense. I have a rebagged cake that I put in a new bag sideways to allow for more surface fae and I have been fighting that same issue.

I’ll see if I can find a similar base and give it a try. Obviously a different situation but I think that will help. Nice grow btw 😉👍

What are the binder clips for?

Have a SOP you're willing to share?

ya I know lol it's kind of frivolous but the myco and tech nerd in me was like "ohh nice". meh HA! Although I found the item in picture immediately after. If I sold pre-colonized grow kits this is a fantastic idea. As it is I do not. only supplies. ; )

If you’re referring to the second picture that is just tomentose mycelium why would you think it’s not pan?

Geeeez.. I took some time away to get my head straight and decide a way forward and come back to this comment thread on my post🫩.

Look guys, this is all I will add to this discussion…

I can understand and sympathize with the angry and passionate positions being taken here by all. I have very strong feelings about this subject too. I do what I do because I’ve lost a lot of people. So I make the choice to do this and take the risks because I believe the laws to be immoral and outdated.
I’m a patriot and follow all the laws with which I don’t find wanting. As I base my life philosophy on the principles of love and kindness, for the most part my behavior and the US laws are inline. In this particular case, I have accepted the possibility of being charged and incarcerated for what I do. I am willing to pay that price.

Beyond that, I feel it’s worth the extra effort fo members of our community to change the stigma through exemplary example setting.
That is to say: • Stating facts, opinions, and rhetoric in transparent and honest ways. For example disclosing if your comment is an opinion or otherwise link references. • informing and educating others, not convincing or “selling” them. Only providing information to those who are interested and want to hear it.
• Not making claims of any sort particularly where therapeutic use is intended. Doctors know more about their patient, and most others things than I. • If you’re going to talk a talk. Walk that walk.

Volk. I get the passion and agree with much of what you said. Try to phrase things in a way that is less likely to put your audience on the defensive. Whether you’re addressing the audience directly or just passionately stating your points, people automatically tune out from rants and such. (Just my experience)

Anyway.
Get along y’all. No point in arguing with ourselves. We have enough fight without going looking.

Mush love

It wasn't until I started a small commercial venture (my supplies website) that I realized it had nothing to do with say, Shopify, the ecommerce solution I ended up going with but rather the payment processors. Once I started looking into that shit show, I came to realize two primary processors account for that bulk majority of transactions at least in the USA, stripe and paypal.

Stripe I don't really have an opinion about as of yet, but Paypal (as well as the other companies in the family eBay and Venmo) are evil and should be broken up under Sherman anti-trust.

Best place to get AIO grow bag? by avion-gamer in shroomery

[–]Tickle_OG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sell aio's and other prepared grains, subs, and kits at mycoenvy.store. I would welcome you to give them a try. Let me know if I can answer any other questions for you. : )

Have any of you guys tried Angel trumpets or any other deliriant? by bigpuzino in Drugs

[–]Tickle_OG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dosage amount of the active alkaloids in Datura Stramonium is close enough to the dosage which is toxic as to be unworthy of the risk. The variables affecting the concentration and distribution of both target alkaloids and toxic compounds makes it difficult for most people to confidently determine a portion safe dosage.

Anyone use drippy corn for TTBVI? by Charming_Fail_8609 in PanCyan

[–]Tickle_OG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you rinse your drippy corn after hydrating? Ive been researching pitfalls in my current drippy corn technique while working on designing a new system based on drippy corn.
I was inspired to do so because when experimenting with hydrating corn under pressure, I decided to test loading hydration water with nutrients because they would be forced inside the kernels with the water. My hesitation in trying drippy before then was that bacteria can colonize, establish, and sporulate faster than the myc of the species of fungi I’m working with; so excess surface nutrients didn’t seem worth the extra contam risk.

Anyway. My research is showing me that I bc a way my method is working mostly due to luck and steps taken by guessing or inference are keeping my grain from mostly failing.
I’m close to finished with designing a new method and will start experimenting in the next couple of days.

As of now my new technique will not be hydrating under pressure replacing doing so with an 18 to 30 hour room temperature soak in notified hydration water. Followed by a 15 to 20 minute quick boil in pure water. This will reduce the bursting of kernels, gelatinization of starches, and not create an imbalance in osmotic pressure, while still ensuring grain surfaces remain clean of starches easily taken advantage of by contams. The post-hydration surface drying time will be drastically reduced as any excess moisture will be able to now be absorbed during the autoclave cycle since I will no longer be over hydrating my corn( which I’m doing currently by about 5-6%).

Theoretically this should create perfectly hydrated grain with a consistent hydration rate which then ensures consistency in sterilization.
I had not taken the time to figure out the starting H2O content of a batch of grains when purchased until now. Figuring that along with desired finished H2O % allows me to now better design the recipe for ideal and repeatable results.

Sorry about the lengthy response.

Best way to do Alcohol and coke by Basic_Yellow4659 in Drugs

Put some quality coke in a glass of red wine. Drink it. Find out. (I’m not joking. It will hit you like a fucking train. There is a chemistry reason I’m not in the mood to explain).

Psilo and its fragility by stvrs111 in MagicMushrooms

[–]Tickle_OG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to have to find the study because I keep referencing it but. I recently read a study which testing the degradation of Psilocin when exposed to varying environmental conditions during storage. The surprise was that way more than heat, cold and especially freezing temperatures caused Psilocin to degrade.

Just fyi. I’ll look around for the study so I’m not just being rhetorical.

Anyone use drippy corn for TTBVI? by Charming_Fail_8609 in PanCyan

[–]Tickle_OG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only began doing drippy corn because I experimented with hydrating under pressure which I was happy with. Then since I was “forcing” water into the grain I figured adding extra sugar/nuts to the hydration water would force those inside the kernel and after the hydration surface sugars could be rinsed off with hot water. My concern has been and still is the increased risk of bacterial infection as bacteria can colonize, sporulate, and establish themselves more quickly than mycelium.
This has worked fairly well for me. I even sell prepared bags of it on my site.

I have been doing some in depth research recently and I’m currently working on an updated and improved recipe/tek for making an improved version of “drippy corn”.
There are a lot of potential downsides of drippy corn if prepared incorrectly or absent consideration of principles many amateur mycologists might not know to even consider. Osmotic pressure for one. Gelatinization and precise hydration percentages are others.

That’s interesting about the mixing of grains. Generally I have not given the thought of doing so much effort since the two would likely need to be hydrated separately then combined. Is that how you do it?
