So, just a few questions, hope I didn't just miss you already explaining it. If I did then slap me. 
1 - Did you use liquid culture to start those mycobags? 2 - It was an isolate, I presume? 3 - How long did it take to colonize..? I heard some people say Mexicana is a very fast colonizer.
Thanks, enjoy the fruits of your labour there!!!
the myco bags were started with one pint of wbs inoculated with spores... my isolate didnt work so well after the bags were knocked up they took about 15-20 days to colonize, then after cased about 7 days to fruit. any other questions are welcome.

I'm amazed. What was the total harvest weight? Did you manage to harvest any sclerotia? Congrats. Wanna send a print my way??

You call THAT a flush?
Holy crap bra! Nobody would have believed it without the pics! (I'm having a hard time breathing over here. Where's my nitroglycerin pills?)
You are the Jalisco KING! Long live bw86!

PS. I have some time to spare if you need some help during this desperate time of harvest... (speaking of which)
How's the potency? Hypothetically speaking of course.

Hey hows the potency of P. mexicana? They looks very similar to cyans in their girth and stature. But if I had to eat like 15 of them to get the same trip from a heady B+ shroom..then I'd go through your stash quick!

jalisco produced a good amount of small stones on the casing. but i have not dug through the substrate yet. Atl# seems to put out a much greater amount of stones.

i have been experimenting with sand. the basic idea is that it is inert. i didn't sterilize/pasteurize my casing at all. so i put the sand down as sort of contam barrier.to keep my substrate separated from my peat/verm casing.
if you guys really want to see someone who mastered exotics take a look at CaptainFuture 's posts and give a real psilocybe master some credit.

Brilliant! I tried using some cactus mix right out of the bag as a casing for P. mexicana (Jalisco strain) and also got a quick and tremendous pin set. Unfortunately, the tray succumbed to mold before most of the mushrooms matured. The sand barrier is inspired and something I will have to try.
Good work!

Thanks for the answers bw86! A couple more - what were your fruiting temperatures, and how about humidity and fresh air exchange?

What type of sand are you using and do you sterilize/pasteurize?
Thanks for all this info!
