Indoor Azure cultivation [edit-nope]
    #6639449 - 03/05/07 08:51 PM (17 years, 18 days ago)

[edit: nevermind, apparantly not azures]

I've read a bunch of stuff on here and it always seems to be kind of 'believe at your own risk' kind of information. Well I've done it successfully and I'd like to share for anyone else interested.

I started with standard PF cakes, but added 10 grams shredded Mimosa hostilis root bark for each 1/2 pint jar. inoculate and incubate just the same as cubes, about 80 degrees in the dark. When they were colonized I took them out and put them in the fridge (40 degrees) for about 4 hours then dunked them in water at room temperature for 12 hours. Set them in my terrarium on squares of wet pizza box cardboard with an ultrasonic humidifier at room temp (70 degrees) and in a day or two I have pins that grow to mature mushrooms in about a week and a half. Really I'm not doing anything different than when I grow cubes other than the 4 hours in the fridge and the terrarium is at 70 degrees instead of 80. My flushes aren't exactly massive, but neither were my cube flushes (I'm new at this). They seem roughly 2-3 times as potent as the Koh Samui T3 I grew before.

Here's a shot of one I picked that weighed 20 grams fresh. It's still drying so I can't say what it will weigh dry yet.

That's no Azure. It's a cube.

That is not an Azure. Hate to be the bearer of bad news. Nice mushroom though. Good luck on future grows. :smile:

If that's true then I was marketed azures and sold cubes. They DO seem more potent though, even from someone who I didn't tell they were getting anything other than an ordinary mushroom. Could be chalked up to the Mimosa though.

Substrate doesn't affect potency. Who sold you the fake syringe?

That doesn't even look like a P. Azure. Where did you get the spores?

I got the syringe from a guy on eBay, looks like he's no longer a member.  Big surprise :rolleyes:

I suspected they might be cubes when I got them to grow so easily, but they look so different from the others I grew I really didn't know what to think.  Like I said, I'm new at this.

Anyways, not to be the new guy that argues with everyone, but as far as substrate increasing potency, here is a thread discussing actual scientific studies showing the addition of tryptamines increasing potency.

Here is a link to SporeWorks gallery of Psilocybe azurescens.
http://www.sporeworksgallery.com/azurescens

Note, your fruit looks much more similar to any Ps. cubensis, than to Ps. azurescens.
As far as the potency of this mislabeled strain, versus the Samui- I'm gonna have to vote placebo effect.
