Innoc'd five days ago. I was impatiently waiting, thinking they'd never start. Today I can finally just barely see it with naked eye, but the macro shots show it pretty well

Cool :] Always good to see nice SLOW white growth. My first attempt with LC turned out to give me nice thick white growth in 3 days.... which in turn gave me nice thick green spores in 5-6 days. Check this out if you haven't seen it: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/9942729

Well I thought it looked like cobweb, I hope I am wrong but spores101 doesn't have the best reputation. Buy from shroomery vendors and you will have much better results. If it is cobweb it will take over the jar in a day or so. GL, CH

Ya, it was going to be either 101 or Ralphsters. I flipped a coin, and 101 was closer to me, so...

Don't worry its not cobweb. The alacabenze from I got from 101 were older and took about 5-7 days to germinate. The spore syringe I made from fresh alacabenzi worked much better.
The syringe I made I used on 1/2 pint brf jar. 2-3 days it looked foggy at the injection sites just like yours then at day a few days later a strong white mycelium just poped in it colonize the bottom first and worked upward.

Ya, I don't really think it is either. The more I look the more mycelium I see (using a flashlight at different angles). It's everywhere. It's just very small still.

Wait, does spores101 not work or does it just work slower? Because that's where I'm getting my stuff from. I'd hate to get dead spores...

You won't get dead spores. Don't worry. Five days to start isn't abnormal. I was prepared to wait longer. It's just hard to be patient when you're new to this stuff.
Spores manage to survive and make mushrooms in the harsh outdoors. They're tougher than you think.

PF cakes for this first attempt. I've started a couple quarts of LC for later experiments. I have a bag of WBS I'm planning to tinker with.

I wonder if it matters how you grow it? I mean, I hear that using straight poo results in more mushrooms of a lower quality, but I wonder if certain strains produce more or less of the good stuff? I wish we had some way of testing besides tasting them, since trying to measure anything while tripping sounds pretty prone to error...

Tonight I read thru Doc's Wild Bird Seed Tek and went at it. Found out, much to my disgust, that my seed has what looks like 5% peanuts (no ingredients list on outside of bag). Had to pick those out by hand, along with probably 20% floater junk and sunflower seeds.
So I'm scooping and picking like mad and just throwing the junk in the sink and rinsing/stuffing it down the drain. It's going pretty well until the sink stops draining. Uh oh!
Out to the garage and get the plunger. Plunge the shit out of it and... nothing. Plugged solid. Aw crap! Luckily I have decent equipment or this would have cost me an expensive drain cleaning service call. Snaked down about fifteen feet or so and got it unclogged. The sink drains better than ever now.
So learn from my foolish mistake. Don't put all the WBS junk down your drain or it might cost ya bigtime.
