I had much error on my first attempt, im currently working towards my second.. Dont expect to be flawless but good luck . My first attempt is still growing very slowly due to too much moisture in my jars. They may even be stalled . But to upload pictures i just goto the pic's link in the upper left corner under your name and upload the pics there then you click the picture button to the right of "TEX" button just above where you write your post. Then from the "Pic"s page you can copy and paste the code into that box and it will place it in the post. You may have to hit enter and space it out so its by itself and not mixed in with the text..
Hope that helps.. Good luck.
Oh yeah how are you planning on growing? Brown Rice Flour and Vermiculite? PF style?

Good Luck!!;)

Just make sure you are very sterile with your procedures.I recommend a still air box. Follow RR's videos closely!

I've just started my first grow and his videos were by FAR the most helpful thing I've found.
But I didn't build a glove box. I used an open air inoculation technique I found on here that seems to have worked. Basically you just flame sterilize the needle and wrap it paper towel soaked with alcohol as soon as you bring it out of the flame, keeping it covered until you slide it into each inoculation point. That way the needle doesn't really come in contact with the air. You repeat that in between each jar and obviously make your workplace as sterile as possible.
It probably wasn't the best way to do it, but it seemed like the most sterile way without the use of a glovebox.

follow the pf tek exactly.
I highly recomend the use of a glovebox. Alcohol is very helpfull but it still is only a sanitiser. Why wrap a needle ni a dirty paper towel soaked in alcohol when once its flame sterilised and in a glovebox its pretty much sterile.
Dont use photobucket etc you will get more views uploading you pictures to the shroomery and posting them directly into your replies.
Alot of member wont click external sites, they take ages to load and often open up popups.
Smucka why encourage photobucket when you have your own personal photo gallery. Which will load so much faster and is more secure
