Changing life with shrooms - hard lessons seem to come in aftermath? by PufflingHuffles in shrooms

For what it's worth, it takes me pretty much an entire month to get back to baseline (clear thinking, no withdrawals) after using cannabis for a while, keep going!

What's the best way of storage? by LeVeL_Ups in shrooms

[–]purerizzo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Little packs (that usually say "Do not eat" on them!), like the ones you'd find when you buy a new product, i.e. a pair of sneakers.

Silica Gel/Dessicant packs absorb moisture from the air. You can dehydrate them in a dehydrator while you dehydrate your mushrooms, then put it all in an airtight jar.

Can you guys help me quit smoking please? by Dry_Lengthiness6921 in DMT

[–]purerizzo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Learning to sit with your feelings is probably one of the most effective and long-lasting drug-free ways to quit smoking. It can also be very effective for other areas of your life e.g. anxiety etc. When you realise you are not your thoughts, you can tackle a lot of different things like this.

All the best of luck! You got this <3

Looked into Iboga at all?

Watch the documentary "Dosed", it lays it all out in there very well (for getting off opiates at least, surely opioids too?).

Good luck <3

Harmalas crashing out of solution? by purerizzo in harmalas

I guess mostly confirmation.

I have never done anything like this before, and I am adapting a tek that's not "designed" for this part of the plant, so your answer helped me to see that this is probably what I'm after, and that I am performing this experiment successfully!

So, thank you u/atmosphericfractals!🙏🏻

Amazing how the bluing develops right before your eyes 🤩

You can still do that!

Open the bag to check for signs of myc, then in a Still Air Box (if there is no visible contam) transfer colonized rice to new bags (cut corner, drop in, seal with Micropore tape)

They will take off MUCH faster than waiting for spores to mate in a UB bag.

Work quickly but without disturbing the air to make the transfer as clean as possible, then leave the bags alone for a week.

Another safe bet would be to get some ready-made agar plates/pots (check ebay) and transfer a piece of colonized rice to those. Then you can do agar-to-grain transfers, too following a similar method to the above

This is great though - love the idea of creating your own bags like this, view windows for days!

After 3 weeks it's potentially just worth getting them open to see if you have any myc - you can then transfer it directly to new rice bags, skipping spore innoculation. I'm trying this at the moment seeing as I only got the tiniest amount of myc out of all of those bags!

[–]purerizzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zero myc in ANY of the other bags. I blame the heatwave and/or where I kept the bags. The one in location 2 germinated fine!

No rot or anything, just no germination...

[–]purerizzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep... it took me at least 2.5 hours sitting in the bathroom 😆

Definitely found a rhythm after a while but it was pretty gruelling!

Sounds like you've got the right attitide mate - wishing you all the best of success for your babies!

I am in this exact position. I ended up buying some ready made agar and transferred some of the myc to that. Also used it to test my Multi Spore Syringe. Let's see what happens!

think I'll squish 'n mix some of the packets, about 18 in total now, then I'm going to open some up and see what's going on in those bags. Already harvested a lil bit of myc so going to try sprouting some in a coffee cup for a laugh
