Wipe the end with alcohol should be sufficient.

With the instant pot u will need to extend the time cuz most of them only hit 12psi. I'd just add like 15 more minutes to the times. A lot of times u can find cheap pressure cookers at the second hand store. The agar plates are going to decrease your contamination rate by quite a bit.

Get some agar agar, some honey and potatos. Fill a pot with a lil over a qt of water and boil the potatos till their soft. 4 potatos will work, slice them up so they boil faster. Once u have the potato water, filter out the potatos using a sock and collect the water in a cup. Put a lil over a...

I agree, these mushrooms I have now are noticeably more potant than my last batch from a couple years ago. The ones from a couple years ago were noticeably stronger than the ones I was buying off a guy back then. Before i grew these, I never knew a 3.5g trip could be so intense. Just goes to...

Few of my plates from Start to now. The green fuzzy one was a thumb print, so make sure your hands are washed. The regular petri dishes are malt agar, the glass jars are agar, honey and potato water.

Some more updates on my dishes. They are all doing real good but here is a few pics. The one that looks real good is from growing out a piece of bird seed that had mycelium on it.

Its just spores that dropped because u didn't pick them before they completly opened. It wont hurt anything, just a lil bit messy. Most of the mishrooms in the pictures can be picked except the couple small ones.

Yea pick it, the one to the right of that big one looks ready too. Take some aluminum foil, wipe it with alcohol. Place the cap on it gills down, drip a couple drops of water on the cap from about 8inches over it so the drop breaks instead of rolling off. Cover it with a jar and let it sit over...

Pick them when you can see the gills under the cap or right before the Vail breaks which is what covers the gills till it opens fully

A flush is when all your muchrooms grow in and stops producing more. That is your first flush. Once u pick them all and another set of muchrooms comes in, thats your second flush. It keeps going like that till they stop growing or u get contam. Between the flushes I'm pretty sure u r supposes to...

Keep picking them as they grow and dunk and roll as needed. I have never grown pf tak but thats what I always see.

I'm at 8 1/2oz 2g total dry weight so far. Got an oz off my 3rd flush. Just flooded my tub again so I'm waiting on the 4th flush to come in hopefully. Got a bunch of agar dishes knocked up and growing too now so my next batch of jars i can knock up with the agar plates. I also have 18 qt jars...

That one mushroom looks dry so maybe more water. You would be well served to learn bulk growing and how to grow spores on agar petri dishes.

Here is some more pics. Last mycelium dish and Almost an oz of just about all caps.

Here some pics from today. All the normal looking petri dishes are the malt agar, the jar ones are the honey dishes Roll it up This one the big white spot is a transfer I did from a honet dosh to a malt dish just fucking around. This dish has spores in it too This one is a pc of bird seed...

The top 3 pics are of the potato honey, seems to be working so far. I'm going to check on the other dishes with the other agar in then to see if they have done anything yet.

2 or 3 grams will do ya right. Things can get hectic at the higher doses. I've topped out at 5.5 and that was enough. Every gram more that you eat increases the effects considerably. Don't forget to go look at a tree once the visuals kick in. Its one of my favorite things to look at trippin

Last week I spread some spores on some potato, honey agar plates (mini jars). Looks like I got a few that are growing right. Wish I would have started useing dishes a long time ago from everything I have read it should make life a lot easier. Can't wait to try to start cloning. Here is a couple...

When making grain jars with wild bird seed it is a waste of time to rinse it, soak it over night and remove sun flower seeds. I used to let it soak and remove the sun flower seeds, then I switched to just rinsing it. Now I just dump what I need in a pot, boil for half an hour and its good to go...

When I first got into this (growing shrooms) I already had one normal size pressure cooker. I soon learned that only being able to pressure cook 3 pint jars at a time was super time consuming and took all fucking day when I wanted to run a whole case of jars. I decided I would go to a few of...
