Well I had my first screw up, the light didn't turn on today till after lunch, I set the timer wrong last night, lol, but I doubt that will be an issue. I checked my temps and humidity after a couple hours with the lights on, and I have 72 degrees, and 99%, so I think those are gonna stay pretty steady for me I hope. I'm about to go and shoot up my SA jars that I cooked yesterday night. Then I need to cook up another 6 jars, so I can myc transfer tomorrow, or saturday. I need to get my incubator filled back up, its gonna be empty once I fridge my ereals.

you want to try to keep your temps around 74, for good pinning. As for your light problem...its no big deal! Some ppl only give em 10hrs light.

I didn't really think the light would be an issue, I just kinda laughed about it. But I'm not sure how I'll increase my temps to 74, I'll turn my house heat up to 74 and see what happens, its at 72 right now.

more than likely they would get contaminated. Now if you got a syringe and shot it up in an old patty if the climate was right you would get shrooms. You cant use fresh cow shit, it has to be leached by the weather. But I have heard of ppl feeding cows spores and they germinate in thier gut, and when they shit em out it colonizes the patty. But it might take a while till the patty is good for myc to grow through it.

Well I am pretty sure that tey have to be fresh to have viable spores. Also you don't need to grow them in cow shit, the trays on this page are just wild bird seed, and vermiculite. I hope to have tons of shrooms popping up in the next 3-5 days. As far as getting spores, where are you located, you can legally order spores in most of the USA. I believe only CA, GA, and maybe MS have made it illegal. If you don't live in any of these states, then ordering spores is as simple as a trip to http://www.sporevisions.com/, or http://www.spores101.com/ . Either of these sites will provide you with good quality spores.

If you do live in one of these states (CA?), as I see your name is MediMaryUser. Then perhaps you have a friend or family member out of state who you could have order the spores for you. If you were able to find some fresh mushrooms, there is a chance you would be able to get spores from it, and start to grow them, but I don't think dry will work.

I do really suggest you look more into it all. Its alot of fun, and goes very fast. This is my second mushroom grow, the first of this scale. I started on dec. 2, and I should have mushrooms before new years at this rate! If you have any questions MediMaryuser, feel free to ask, one of us(prolly Kushcrosser) will likly have an answer!

Lol, so I posted yesterday about me planting the slow growing ereal outside. It would be kinda funny if nothing happened next year, but like 1-2 down the road somebody else was living here, and found these mushrooms growing in the back yard. Lmao

If I wasnt right in the heart of town, I would bury all of my used myc in the ground! If you do put it out, put em in an area that gets alot of shade. In the deep woods is best!

I've got a little garden outside my back door what doesn't get any sun that i can think of. I'm gonna fill it with myc. Whats funny is I do live right in town, but my back yard is kinda secluded. I also have a brother that lives across town, with all kinds of land I could bury some one. He'd be all for it aslong as I don't tell his wife. I'll bury my trays when they are done too. I like that idea Kush. Hehe, next spring, or fall there might be a huge outdoor harvest too!

Well nothing went quite as planned today. I opened my cooker to find that 3 of the 6 jars were unusable. They had gotten cooked on the bottom, and had clumped up into a sold puck of wbs. So I decided to fridge them, instead of shooting them up. I also just didn't make the time to cook more jars like I needed to. So that will be in the next couple days. I gotta get my shit together if I want everything to keep on schedule!

The trays are looking good, can't see much more then a little myc growth on them, but a little is better then none. I imagine there will be more to see tomorrow!

Well I fell asleep last night, lol. I took pics yesterday, and havn't even looked at them today, my lights just came on. Things are well, slow, but well. I finally shot up my SA yesterday. I only ended up with 5 jars of SA, but they are in the incubator, and I still have like 5cc left in the syringe.

Also my last ereal jar that hasn't been doing much is finally doing something. It had gotten pretty well colonized yesterday, so I shook it agian. We'll see what it does.

I cooked up 6 jars yesterday, and to my dismay, 4 of the 6 had gotten "cooked" agian. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, only thing I can think of is to wet. So next batch I'm gonna either simmer less time, or let them dry even more. I don't know what else it could be, but its getting very frustrateing. I have gone through so much time and bird seed this week.

Well heres the pics, they are in the oder of KS, Burma, Burma, Burma, KS.






I'm also gonna post some pictures from my last 4/20 we went to a smoke out in Toronto Canada. I thought they would give you guys something more enertaining to look at. I just finally got them onto my computer so enjoy, I love super bongman!
