Hey, new cultivator here!

I helped a friend grow mushrooms a few years ago. I didn't do anything besides check the temperature daily, and spray water in the container to keep it warm. The shrooms came out pretty well! I had quite a few trips. I didn't help in the beginning process at all, so, I pretty much don't know anything. I've looked through the FAQs already, but I still have two questions. 1. Does anyone have any experience with Mycodome? I wanted to get it, since it appears to be simple and efficient.(http://www.mycodome.com/) 2. What spore would you suggest I get for my first cultivation project? I want something that will be POWERFUL, and easy to maintain.
Thanks, Chris

Follow this tek: http://www.shroomery.org/index.php/par/23593
i would advise against a mycodome, simply because they are expensive and success can be achieved at a much smaller price tag

I know, but I want to be able to grow shrooms all year round. I would grow them in my attic, which can get pretty damn cold in the winter, and wayyyyy too hot during the summer.

how is a mycodome going to help you with that?
i have never really looked at it, but i think that if its in a 130F attic its not going to work.
why do you need to grow in your attic??

Dude do your research. Read the message board and Paul Stamets grow book. Cambodian or OI might be good for you. PF Jars suck in my opinion. But I think they are a good place for one to start.

I would try using the Cubensis B+ strain for your first grow..I used the Golden Teacher strain on my first grow and got excellent results.

I will first say that you do NOT need to buy a myco-dome. You will save lotsa money if you construct your own FC. I did buy one and it was really stupid that they did not include any instructions in the box. I ended up using it as a fruiting chamber and it did work OK. I like the dome part, but with a little creativity, you can make that without spending all that money...
