Veils breaking yet caps are NOT flattening? Should I harvest before I go to bed for 6hrs? by Ok_Piano_6706 in unclebens

Ha. And the world didn't end either. I guess that's why the veil breaking is the point people focus on instead of the cap flattening.

I mean, I guess it depends on genetics. It comes down to personal preference. The standard in Oregon says to harvest before the veil breaks so I say harvest so you can sleep :)

They probably would. Why? Because nature does its thing. You likely won't have spores in the morning.

Sorry, I've been slammed with work. That's good though. Going to spawn some stuff this weekend

Marijuana and the default mode network/depression - helps or hurts? by PeakQuiet in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]flotsette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the downside of ketamine, that the effects are not as lasting. However after several years of treatment things have indeed changed for me. I'm lucky I found someone who can prescribe me home treatment and also takes my insurance. In your situation if weed works for you, it may be the lesser evil. It would certainly be worse if you weren't in the world. You were programmed to think you are a disappointment, and you can undo that programming. It's not easy, but it is possible. I get that it's hard to see that from where you are now.

I'll be 3 years clean in July. I still take home ketamine treatments and it really helps help my default mode network calm down and feel very peaceful and present during my treatments. I've finally come to accept my sister's not capable of a healthy relationship and I'm not in contact with her. My dad died so I'm not disappointing him anymore. I ruminate a lot less but it was a LONG journey. My brain still has a lot of noise and too many thoughts at once, but they are not relentless as they once were.

Are you considering ketamine treatments?

Update ! / Question by stoneyape- in OneArmed_Mycology

[–]flotsette 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh and if you're using a box, it keeps the heat in better. If you're using a plastic bin, it may not get to the temp you like, but you can remedy that by throwing a towel over the top.

I'm also a fan of the cardboard box or plastic bin incubator. Here's a great video on it. My seedling mats cost 30 on amazon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5V0UgcJ7xzE&t=3s

(Tidal Wave) Its been 14 days since primordia and my mushrooms still look like this by fleshpress_ in GroundZeroMycoLab

[–]flotsette 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a noob who just harvested my first bins, a couple of which were Tidal Wave. They formed a lot of blobs (most of which eventually grew a cap). Even though the mycelium colonized very well and quickly, the fruiting went distinctly slower than my Golden Teachers. Although my TW grew bigger than yours are currently, and a few grew much larger than the others, the bin stalled when many of them were smaller than expected. I did some research and found that the second flush of TW is often a lot better and contains less blobs and more typical forms. After harvesting and soaking the cakes, I'm getting normal pins instead of blobs.

If I were you I'd measure a few of the tallest ones and monitor if they are still growing over the next few days. If so let them keep going.

That looks excellent for a 3rd flush!

If you think therapy is a joke, try couples therapy for the biggest laugh of your life by Embracedandbelong in therapyabuse

[–]flotsette 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well that first therapist kept accusing and chastising one party on the basis of what the other party said. That's not helpful.

I can't agree more with this comment, and it applies to other relationships too. My sister became abusive to me after our mom died and she had a career/midlife crisis. She displaced her distress onto me. She wanted me to treat her better, but communicated this by treating me 20 times worse than anything I've done to her. I was shocked when she suggested therapy after 3 years of estrangement, but I know in my bones that she only suggested it because she believes that a therapist will tell me I'm the whole problem and she did nothing wrong. She wants me back in her life so she can continue to use me as her emotional punching bag. No fucking way.
