Does anyone here, with first hand experience, want to describe the trip from this strain? I have read about this strain before and untill recently I allways thought that it was impossible to fruit indoors. Congratts man!

I am too courious as to how this strain compares to others in the way it feels visual andbody wise. I would also like to know how long the Scerotia lasts and how long potency is retained while being stored. Does it store longer than the dried fruitbodies?

I have brought this historical post back to the top to answer some sclerotia yield questions. This is the first documented test of the Mexicana A strain just prior to its initial release at The Spore Works. Most of the image links were dead so I edited my posts to replace the original pictures (albiet in smaller size). None of the text was changed.

Interesting. Personally, I've had better yields with rye berries than with rye grass seed. Perhaps due to the higher moisture holding capacity? Have you ran side by side tests by any chance? By the way, your mex a rocks!

Thanks, but I really haven't done much in that regard. Most work is towards getting decent fruits for spores. Once a strain shows promise spore production is the highest priority.
The new ATL#7 strain is being trialed more thoroughly compared to the 2001 mexicana A tests.

In TMC they recommend seed too, and said it doesnt perform well on rye grain. They also recommend rice. But some vendors sold secret mixtures with the consistency of modelling clay.
I am trying the atlantis on wheat grain. It is disappointing that there are not more people trying these grains on different substrates. I will try some brown rice side by side in 2 jars, one with water being added during the grow, the more I think of additional water the more sense it makes to me.

I've done the mex-a with corn and cased with pasteurized peat no lime. The Mex-a fruited but the yield was very poor...

Don't I look like I'm serious...
