Hello! Biginner here!! Could use advice.
    #10881458 -

Hey guys how ya doin? I'm Called buddah down here in florida.

So i ordered my first syringe of Cambodian mushies from spores101 hope there good......

Now as of equipment i have the following:

12 1/2 pint ball tapered mason jars.
1 6QT 10 PSI pressure cooker (they didden't have anything bigger)
Gloves
2 Bags Brown rice
2 Big rubbermaid thingys.

I'm gonna buy some vermiculite and perlite maybe today or so since the spores may not be hear till the end of the week. (ups shipping)
So i said i live in Florida, So its already quite hot and humid so i figure i wont need a heater but i may get one anyway,

After reading all the PF tek and what not i'm still a bit confuzzeld
I just want to have a successful first harvest ><

I figured i'll be able to do this right if i had some advice from all of you! Thanks and cheers everyone!

Brown rice, or brown rice FLOUR?  Are you planning on grinding the rice?

What are the "big rubbermaid thingys" for?  Some more information would help us help you.  :smirk:

bad idea getting spores from spores 101. if they get to you , which sometimes takes forever or not at all, there syringes are bunk many of the time. your gonna need to hang out here and read anfd learn. plus watching the rr video on hear for pf cakes is a must for newbies

the Rubbermaid thingys in my mind were for a fruiting chamber, and something to keep my jars warm and yeah i was gonna grind the brown rice in a coffee grinder.

(anyone have experience with Cambodian shrooms? from spores101)

and yeah its organic rice.

Um, i've heard mixed reviews from spores101

www.mushroomvideos.com ; and next time you order you should use a shroomery sponser for your spores. then you know you have some viable spores  :thumbup:

Ya, Spores101 isn't a Shroomery sponsor, so you can't be guaranteed that the spores are going to be good. Next time, use a Shroomery sponsor.
The best advice anyone here can give you is to use the search function for every question you have, it is your best teacher. Read, read, and read some more, there is SO much to learn from this site.
Make sure you follow every word of the pf tek and you can't go wrong.
Since the humidity is high in Florida, you should have good success building a shotgun FC. The original pf tek doesn't mention this type of FC.

I don't know which guides and FAQ's you were reading, but you definately need wide mouth jars for pf cakes, because they need to slide out of the jar when they are fully colonized. With tapered jars, you'll have to destroy the cake, or break the jar to get it out.

money orders your probably refering to is ralphsters right. he is top notch, and if you wanna use a debit card instead, sporeworks is great to:thumbup:. if there a sponser here than you can be sure that there a legit and they will do everything to make sure your completely satisfied.

I got that race from spores101 and there doing just fine, I ain't promoting non sponsors I just ordered before I knew the sponsors. I'm just saying don't get to down in the dumps just have a little faith and be clean and sterile. Next time just go through the sponsor list http://www.shroomery.org/sponsors.php

:mushroom2:Got to try to get results, got to improve that to have success, have to be successful to work on perfection:mushroom2:
         
Pf Tek is the way to go, it's what I plan on sticking to, I fully support and suggest Pf Tek for everyone new or not, it's awesome it has results and is easy to follow.

Hmmm, I was under the impression that tapered jars have the smaller tops. I mean, the definition of taper is "to become progressively smaller toward one end". I googled "tapered jars" too, and got results for both small AND wide mouth jars. :shrug: So forget the word tapered, as long as you bought wide-mouth jars with no shoulders, you'll be fine.
As for the spores, all I can say is good luck. Some people have success with their spores. If you're not in a huge hurry, you should still wait and see if the syringes work before ordering more.

Even regular mouth 1/2 pints will work as long as it's "even" from top to bottom
