• Abbreviations for Psilocybe cubensis Strains
  • 4.00
  
  
  This section is a list of many various Psilocybe cubensis strains.
  
  
• What are the optimum P. cubensis growth parameters?
  • 4.33
  
  
  Psilocybe cubensis Growth Parameters taken from Paul Stamets and J.
  
  
• How do I initiate pinning on a casing?
  • 2.00
  
  
  Once the mycelium has appeared in the valleys of the casing layer it's time to trigger primordia formation.
  
  
• How long does it take for a pin to mature?
  • 2.00
  
  
  It takes anything from 2 - 5 days for a P. Cubensis pin to mature.
  
  
• Why is there mycelia growing on the stems?
  • 2.00
  
  
  If the conditions are too moist at the point where mushrooms enter their last fruiting stage, some mycelium can grow on the stems.
  
  
• When should I harvest?
  • 2.00
  
  
  Harvest casings all together over a course of 1 day for best results.
  
  
• How do I harvest a mushroom?
  • 3.00
  
  
  A mushroom is best harvested by being pulled off the casing or cake with a twisting motion.
  
  
• What should I do after harvest?
  • 2.00
  
  
  Cakes: You clean the cakes of all aborts and place it back into the fruiting chamber at 95%-100% humidity.
  
  
• I want to construct a HEPA hood. How do I match a blower to a HEPA filter?
  • 1.67
  
  
  Every filter has a different "resistance" when air blows through it at a certain speed, this resistance is called the "static pressure".
  
  
• Is it possible to cross 2 strains?
  • 3.00
  
  
  A hybrid would result from the mating of a monokaryon of one strain with a monokaryon of another strain.
  
  
• Is there a difference in yield if I use multispore inoculation or an isolated strain?
  • 4.00
  
  
  There is a difference.
