Agreed your tek is the absolute easiest way that i have found on the internet, and i will be using in the near future. i figured id order some jars from midwest while getting all my other supplies together and that way i can get my jars to use in the future and also try my hand a growing cubensis in the process,
Idk man I can see a couple spots of sub in there lol. Nice flush.
That's called in vitro. I did that on my first grow too. I don't think there's any turning back at that point. Look at the bright side, you'll still get some mushrooms.
No. That's totally fucked up. Better dry those and send them to me for proper disposal. lol
Good seeing you around oldmed. Mushrooms are easy, there's plenty of resources to get going if you ever decide to, hit me up if you want buddy.No. That's totally fucked up. Better dry those and send them to me for proper disposal. lol
Nice haul! Are those PE? I just bought a $99 oz of PE for micro-dosing. Got some other ones too. Thinking of getting into growing but what I got should last me for a couple years. Hard enough time getting my pot plants done decently atm so I'd screw up a 'shroom grow for sure.
Hey thanks! My plan basically was to score some and then see if they actually worked for my depression then if they did get into growing my own to save money. I'm finding that they are helping but the doses I'm taking are so low that what I have now will last for ages. At r/microdosing at Reddit the recommendation for MDs are 0.1 - 0.3g every 3rd day or 4 days on 2 days off. Even the 0.1 gets me all messed up so I tried 0.05g and that was still to much so I'm only using about 0.015g. I have just under an oz of Penis Envy, an 8th of Blue Meanies, 8th of Aztecorum, 3g chocolate bar and a 10-pack of 0.3g MD caps. When you do the math I'm set for a couple years but will probably do higher doses so a good year at least and then the sales will be on again.
Store them dark and room temp or in the fridge, don't freeze. Turns out freezing is your quickest degradation, heat and uv as well. I started off microdosing .3 and could feel those every time lol. Went to .2 and could feel those once in a while. I'm right around .17 now. But I will tell you microdosing fixed some shit in me that needed fixed for a long time. It's grown into a bit of a passion for fungi now too. I have more laying around than I need from growing, but that's a good problem to have lol. Get yourself a capsule machine and make caps for microdosing, it helps deliver a consistent dose every time. Grind your mushrooms in a coffee grinder and then put into caps. I had inconsistent doses before making caps. Different areas (stem, cap) in different mushrooms their selves will hold a higher content of psilocybin, grinding it all evens out the potentcy. Lmk if you have any other microdosing questions, I've got that one pretty down these days. You mentioned taking a day or 2 off every 3-4 days, that is definitely a good idea. I wasn't taking a day off when I started, I feel like that's too much brain activity. After about 5 days of that I would get lost in simple conversations with the wife about dinner. Had 100 responses ready to fire at the same time and couldn't get any of them off lol. Good stuff, I hope microdosing helps ya. Take care buddy. Here's a pic of some caps I made recently. Easy stuff to do, took 20 min to bust them out. Size 0 caps hold .15-.2 perfectly.Hey thanks!

It would be an interesting hobby but I have a few of those already on the go. Growing pot goes without saying, started getting into Arudino and Raspberry Pi and that's on the back-burner for now tho got them all hooked up and working. Can surf the web with the Pi and even got my paid ProtonVPN working on it. Would like to get back into tying flies too. I have all the gear I used for years but when we moved up here 20 years ago all my fur and feathers got lost in the move so I've only tied a few for fly-fishing northern pike and that's no thrill when you're used to catching salmon and steelhead in the west coast rivers of the Fraser Valley all my life before BumF**k, Alberta.
Opened up a brokers account and stuck 3G in there 2 years ago and still haven't learned enough to make a trade yet. Invested $60 in a couple of books to teach myself but I've always found finance to be so f'n boring it's hard to get into it and there is always another Stephen King novel coming out that needs reading first. lol
If I started cranking out 'shrooms they would just pile up. I don't know anyone that wants them and I'm not into selling those or pot for profit tho I could use another source of income so have been wanting to clean out the mancave ans start a little computer repair business. I've been the go-to guy for computer problems for 30 years for family and friends and there is no local computer guy that doesn't charge $70/hr. Nice to get my OAS but it's not living the life of Riley here.
I don't have a job jar, I have a job bucket and it's full of all the chores and repairs that need doing around here I haven't got to. I'm praying these 'shrooms get me going and so far they really seem to be starting to do that. When shit HAS to be fixed I can get that done but if I can slough it off and procrastinate about it that's my default mode. Depression just makes it easier to forget about and I'm sick of that shit.
Physical exercise is big on my list too. I've got all sorts of gear collecting dust in the shop and got to get motivated to use it. Thank Jah I don't put on weight sitting around all day but I'm way out of shape. With this arthritis everything hurts but I know if I can get back in shape a bit it should hurt a lot less, The CBD helps and I think eating a 1/4 cup of hemp hearts every day for the last couple months is helping too. Got a pail full in the freezer. No pharma meds for me thanks.
Tiny micro-dose an hour ago and I'm speedy as hell typing my fingers to the bone.
I ground mine up in a coffee grinder all right. Just 6g and took 3g the first day they came in the mail but ing 0.25g doses 20 min apart as it's been 40 years and I was bit nervous. lol
It's max capacity is 160g.
That's awesome! Love hearing that you're seeing benefits man. I think there's more bennies to this stuff than we know yet. I'm somewhat close with a well known breeder, don't like name dropping because it sounds like you're trying to be cool lol. Microdosing fixed a pretty serious issue with migraines for him. Before he told me that I had no idea that could happen. We're just scratching the surface here I think. My grandfather had dementia his last couple years, didn't know his own family half the time. Asking my gma where his wife was all the time, I feel ya on that one. With today's technology you would think they could have it figured out, but not so much. Stay ahead of it buddy, knowing there's potential there is probably a good start. I'd love to hear updates on your thoughts of how microdosing treats you as time goes by.At my age man you got to keep learning new things or your brain turns to mush. I finally made contact with my birth family 5 years ago to find out my birth mother died of dementia and I don't want to be going that route. She was 65 when first diagnosed and I'm a year older than that now. I've had memory issues and mild brain fog since a small stroke 6 years ago and the 'shrooms seem to be clearing the last of that out.
Good luck with your journey as well! I'm liking the trip so far.
Are you growing in jars, a tub? It really depends. I used to mist the sub heavily between flushes. But it depends on the humidity where I live. I've recently started pouring water on my sub right in the tub like a couple gallons, I'll let it sit for the better part of a day and drain. Moving on to the next flush. I judge it by how much shrinkage I see in the cake.
I'm growing in jars.
Totally agree, colonized cakes don't seem to absorb water like you mention. But I've had cakes that were dried and shrunk bad and a soak got them going again. It's gotta do something don't ya think? I don't think it's just a temp thing either.
