First success - grow log with pics
    #8927713 - 09/14/08 08:32 AM (15 years, 6 months ago)

Well, this is my cat's first successful grow and just thought I'd share it with everyone.

The conditions: 3 cakes in a black lock box, no holes, no window, light attached to the lid inside.  Yes I know, shotgun fc is king, but my cat is aiming for something a little more covert.  He's not worried about his housemates, but he's worried about random unexpected visitors.  If the box is locked they have no reason to go through it.

He does fan and mist several times per day.  It's extremely low tech.  2 or 3 inches of perlite in the bottom.

He dunked them on Sept 1, birthed into the fc on Sept 2.  Exactly 1 week later on Sept 9 he saw two pins on cake #2.  He assumed that since there were no other pins on any of the cakes that these were too early and would abort... well they sure proved him wrong, they're still growing now.

Those first pins are the biggest mushrooms you can see now.  He took these pics 2 days ago (Sept 12) and they're still bigger now.  It looks like the big one is ready to be picked tomorrow.









I'm super impressed with cake #1.  So many little shroomies growing, and they don't seem to be aborting.

He's got a fan and some silica beads ready for drying.


Well, that's all.  I might be able to strangle my cat and force him to post more pics later.  Thanks for looking :smile:

Yea, I love him, he's a little weird, hides in the basement behind a locked door and won't let me in on anything he's doing... but this time he gave me some pics.  :thumbup:

Congrats. You could probably use some more perlite. Update later with a harvest pic? :sun: ~Pixie~

With a pinset like that i doubt he needs more perlite. Nice work

They would also probably benefit from not being secured up in a lock box without any FAE, lol. They're probably going to be pretty small, but best of luck. ~Pixie~

Small?  I dunno... my cat posted some pics of what they look like today and they don't look like they're staying small.

He realizes the FAE may be lacking but he's making do with what he can, and fanning/misting several times per day.  Due to circumstances he simply can't have a box with holes in it.

I think he's doing alright though :thumbup:










If you check out that last one.... there's a mushroom growing on top of a mushroom :blush: I didn't even know they did that!

It's nothing to do with the house, but the region of earth in which my cat's basement resides.  In most regions, the growing of psilocybin-containing mushrooms is illegal.  Of course, he's not at liberty to say whether he is growing that type of mushroom, or whether the laws in his country allow him to grow that type of mushroom.

-So, and your 'cats' house is really yours. And if it is at his house, it is yours b/ he would just be up here posting instead of you. As for him not saying he is growing cubes, those are pictures of Ps. Cubensis, no way I am incorrect there. So if those pictures you state your 'cat' is growing then yes those are the illegal kind of mushrooms.

-So basically, dont be paranoid.

-As for your picture, they look nice, but they will stay small. Being enclosed in a Honeywell style lockbox. So you are doing the PF-Tek via "closed in sufficated FC tek" So the fruits will stay small.

-If you were in a friendly residence, you wouldn't worry about people stealing or seeing your specimens that are obviously illegal.

-Not to argue, just your points are invalid. Yes growing mushrooms that contain psilocybin or psilcycin are illegal almost everywhere in the world. That is a factor you will have to adjust to if that is the ONLY reason you practice this hobby for..
:muahaha:

Don't think I quite get you.  He lives in a friendly area and the housemates are friendly.  However, there's always a chance that someone who ISN'T friendly could stop by and complain.

They don't have to be invited in.

Think about it.

ROFL yeah brutal much?
Poor cat!
Is it ilegal for cats to eat magic mushrooms anyway?
Never heard of a law that prevents non-homosapians from growing and munching on a few shrooms. ^^

I am wondering how long most mushrooms grow - it looks like my biggie is going to top out at 5 inches. He was nearly 4 yesterday, he's 4 and a half now, and isn't quite finished like I thought he'd be.  Either tonight or tomorrow.. hopefully I can harvest my first shroomy... :grin: :mushroom2:

At this rate he might start intimidating my cat....!! :rofl:

Yeah HazeyRoms, way to be a jerk. That was unwarranted.

OP, looks like if you keep fanning/misting as much as you are you'll be fine man. Nice little harvest for having them in a box :smile:
