Hmm probably not really, because its to do with dry product aswell. if u have never grown shrooms before its a sort of thing, one tek will work and u will do it well but another might work for someone else. Just start doing it and u will be happy witht he good i think the potency is per weight moreso.
I'm just curious if the pressure that they are sterilized at is really important. Do I need to buy a PC with a dial gauge to make sure its at 15psi or can I just buy a cheap 8-quart PC that doesn't come with a dial gauge and use that? Walmart has aluminum ones for like $40, which is pretty decent I think.

Can you give any more info on these grow bags, i was considering ordering one to see what its all about. Do i need to order anything else besides the spores with the bag? Do i need to get jars still?containers? or is the bag and spores all i would need...

H202 "peroxide" is only effective against cobweb mold. This type of mold is frequently caused by not having enough FAE "fresh air exchange"
It is a white, wispy mold, looking very much like greyish cotton candy.
One way to tell the difference between mycelium and cobweb mold is to spray some peroxide on it however.
The cobweb will melt like cotton candy when touched by the H202, while mycelium will not be effected at all.

www.mushbox.com offers a compost bag that has grain starter patches so you can just inject spores directly in to the grain, then it will colonize the compost once the spores have germinated on the grain patch.
They are found HERE
If I buy one of those bags...all I have to do is buy a syringe from spores101...inject it and keep it stored at 80 degrees? Is the grow time the same as the other methods? How much could someone yield from one of those bags? That seems like a very lazy friendly way to go if you just want a small personal stash.

Inject it in to what? There are more steps to it than you might think. Do some research and ask allot of questions.
I have done some research, and I understand the cultivation process. If you read the description of the bag that was posted above...they say 'the mushrooms will fruit inside the bag.' So, not being an expert on shrooms, I wanted to know if you could grow a small stash just w/ the bag without having to colonize a larger substrate ...and if so, how much could you hope to yield?

so mycology lets say i wanted to use your fruiting chamber design but need something with temp control (philly is cold and i can't afford to keep the gas on all the time) what would you recommend me do.
i have seen where people have used to containers one inside the other and water in the first one with an aquarium heater. how do you feel about this method?

that works great. Just be sure to put the heater on something that wont melt through the bin and that you get a 100% submersible heater.

I've roamed the mushbox site a few times before. Not interested in there little myco-dome... way too much money and the mushrooms it pushes out is hardly less then impressive! See if they have any new side devices that'll help in the process!
