Cheapest/easiest path to personal amounts of mushrooms without special equipment

I see a little myc piss and some blueing from handling a bag that I let go a month past when I needed to spawn it, yeah

That one goes in the garden

I see contamination :man_shrugging:

But if you got that far with unsterized material…hats off to ya…how many did it take yo get you there? Be honest now.

It would be fruiting already if that be the case minus the PISS which is never a good sign of success… remember you still have quite a bit of time left to go at that stage.

80-90% success from sporeworks gear, 40ish % for the reddit ones - they contammed quick except for a couple strains. Those I set aside for future plate work

I’d say I probably had a 70-80% success rate(meaning grain to a tub with 4+ flushes) with bulk tubs from spore before I used the reddit vendor. The cost of failure in this case is permittable to me, only a couple bucks in grain and a bag. Again, I’m not in it for anything beyond personal amounts.

Shitty $5 syringes in question, to be honest I probably got what I paid for

maybe, maybe not. I’ll update later if I use the bag

edit: that pic is terrible, they’re pretty much all water clear. The least amount of spores I’ve seen ever, and definitely not practical for my approach

I’ll give you another bold type advice.
DONT USE THAT BAG TO SPAWN TO ANYTHING… at best let it fruit right where it is…
And I call BS on your honesty

I like to add substrate to these sometimes, I’ve birthed quite a few with no problem

you can call BS all you like, there’s a very good chance my self-reporting isn’t accurate, it’s not like I keep notes. Anecdotally, I’ve had very good success with sporeworks syringes, and piss poor luck with sonoran spores. There is plenty of evidence of other people taking similar approaches with similar results. I mean, the unclebens subreddit is like 90k deep for a reason

There is a difference between not keeping evidence and blowing smoke up my ass.

And I can say with 100% certainty …you my friend …blow smoke…up asses

this is all the evidence that should be required that the method works. I never made any claim for extremely high success rates, I’m more than aware that these methods are crude

But it’s for personal use, there’s nothing inherently unsafe, it’s cheap, and it’s accessible

What specifics would you like to know? I can turn you on to a couple different species that will grow well in you climate. You should be able to grow them year round outside where you’re at I believe

oh yeah unlike you huh? nice glass house you got there

i only attack idiots spreading BS. have you checked out Siosis’ thread where he claims some fantastic fairy tales about his stupid sugar packs which are obviously untrue, then goes ham on me for calling him out, but at the same time admits he has NOTHING but “customer opinion” to back up e. g. his bold claim about bioavailability? surely that’s something you have an opinion on if you care so much about “levelling up” lol

by taking a stance against spreading BS (and dropping loads of very useful fundamental scientific facts on the way), I’m definitely doing more for that than almost anybody else

i clearly stated that it’s a preview and hence should be taken as a work in progress. every single one of the imbeciles attacking me there ignored that (you as well obviously) and demanded real data even though i repeatedly said i wouldn’t give anything else at this point.

Here’s that thread in a nutshell:

me: here some data, but no more data
others: give more data now :triumph::triumph:
me: no
others: insults
me: retaliate
others: :open_mouth:

What’s uncalled for is you involving others totally unrelated to this BS.

guess what, you just attacked me purely based on opinion, go through my post history and find anything (besides condescending attitude lol) you’d like to criticise based on facts, then take it up with me USING YOUR REAL ACCOUNT if you have any balls instead of perpetuating useless drama that with absolute certainty will keep anyone involved from “levelling up”.

so you feel like you’re walking in my shoes now or what :rofl: bit late to realise that good sir. have fun enjoying “levelling up” all by yourself!

edit to include this gem:

but

feels familiar huh?
