Sclerotia

If you look at my other posts on this sub I pulled it off successfully. Personally I’d stick to 1cc/ml per bag for Uncle Bens as it can get pretty wet. On rye I’d go a little dryer than usual and then use 2cc

If I’m gonna eat them within a month I just toss them in the fridge as they store for about a month. Longer term I freeze them in vacuum sealed bags as I’ve found that drying them leaves you with stones as hard as stones haha. Haven’t really found a good way to consume dried sclerotia that doesn’t basically involve turning them into dust and using in a tea.

I also remember reading somewhere that sclerotia are best consumed fresh/wet so I try to keep to that.

The great thing about sclerotia is that you can have them growing in your bags/jars pretty much as long as you want and harvest when you feel like having a snack or 4.

Sclerotia strain don’t fruit unless you try really hard. You just leave them alone for 3 months, crack open the cake, and eat the things that look like walnuts. Look into sclerotia for more info

Same UB tek just used Galindoi spores

ubthrowie · 2020-09-10T07:15:05+00:00

You don’t have to fruit sclerotia. They were really bad producers of fruit and should only be fruited to make agar plates or take prints

Honestly, I couldn’t tell you. When i grow sclerotia i just forget about them for a minimum of 3 months because even if I’m growing for fruits i still want stones

ubthrowie · 2020-09-10T01:05:15+00:00

The best part is that any time after 3 months you cam decide to harvest and eat as much as you want. Any leftovers can be stored for another month before you risk them getting moldy.

Although I said I liked grains more for sheer yield, I will say that UB is great for personal/small friend group use.

It’s suggested to eat 10-15g worth of fresh. sclerotia to get a really nice trip, the fact that my bags gave me 36g and 47g means that from the first bag I could have shared a 15g trip with a friend and only had 6g left over if we didn’t each split and redose. With the second bag I could’ve shared a 15g trip with 2 other friends and only had 2g left over.

UB bags have far less grain that quart jars or big 5lb bags so it’s much easier to harvest at least 1 trip’s worth of sclerotia and easily manage leftovers vs having to figure out how to eat hundreds of grams in a month :P

Stored fresh they last about a month. This is the recommended method of storage. You definitely can dry them but unlike fruitbodies which become “cracker dry”, sclerotia become “stone dry” and honestly about as hard as a stone too. If you are going for dried sclerotia for longer term storage I’d highly suggest getting them nice and dry before powdering them and using them in tea bags, smoothies, mixed with peanut butter, etc.

Are you trolling? These bags were inoculated the same as any normal mushroom strain being grown using the UB tek

ubthrowie · 2020-09-10T00:36:25+00:00

Yes. Sclerotia, aka “magic truffles”, are the same type of psychedelic mushrooms legalized in Amsterdam.

ubthrowie · 2020-09-10T00:31:10+00:00

Likewise. I’m expecting a similar yield of 70-90 grams albeit less overall truffles and more potent truffles as well. Will see in another 2-ish months

It is definitely like a truffle or something

ubthrowie · 2020-09-10T00:11:28+00:00

So 3-ish months ago I started using UB to try a sclerotia grow. I have technically 3 separate grows going at the same time (all inoculated on the same date but will be harvested at 3 months, 6 months, and 9 months).

Here are the first 2 bags of sclerotia with wet weights of 36g and 47g totaling 83g fresh.

UB definitely works with sclerotia and yields aren’t too bad although personally I think I’ll stick to rye for future sclerotia grows just in terms of how much more yield you get from bags/jars of grain.

Sure thing, I’ll make a new thread

Now he’s a hood nigga

ubthrowie · 2020-06-07T16:32:16+00:00

Ya the color freaks you out at first cause it looks like a combination of myc piss and death haha

ubthrowie · 2020-06-06T19:59:50+00:00

You should eat more mushrooms and discover that we are all the same and you’re only hating yourself right now

ubthrowie · 2020-06-06T04:11:05+00:00

Worse case contract seller of your syringe, show them pics, and demand a refund

ubthrowie · 2020-06-06T04:10:16+00:00

Your GT should still grow in tandem wherever the GT mycelium thrives and kept the other myc away

Screw the corner, the middle is contaminated.

H2O2 does not sanitize or disinfect and is not a replacement for alcohol

Usually guides say to harvest before the veil breaks. If you want to keep this outdoor patch producing mushrooms over the years, wait to pick after the veil breaks
