hey guys, been on this sight for well around 2 years, if not more, & have learned a shitload lol started around 15-16 , bout to turn 18 now & know so much, currently reading The mushroom Cultivator by Paul Stamets just to revise & press on what I know & gonna watch that 'Let's Grow Mushrooms' by RR as well, ready to start growing got a full room ready & dedicated to the sole purpose of cultivating , it's nice, facing towards the back of my house, 2nd floor, 1 window, 1 nice sized closet & a door leading to a balcony, & the back of the house is pretty secluded ,not facing towards an open area or nothing pretty isolated back there, I wanna set up a stealth grow op, what should be my biggest focus points & concerns? I was thinking from reading one of the stories on the main page about odor being something I should worry about? is this true or not, & what other things can you guys advise?
So far i got a BIG PC, a 20 something quart one ,& mason jars quart size,soon to be getting the other materials as well (plus i got a microscope that i got from school for a project that I never returned,how sweet of an excuse is that to get some spores???LOL)

odor isn't going to be an issue.
keeping the room free from contams is going to be your main concern... clean it up really good.
carpets, dust and molds are your enemy.

I don't feel stealing a tool of knowledge is something to be proud off.
Growing mushrooms in my opinion does not create a noticeable odor, I think before you start you should spend another month or two looking at all the information on this site. Read your books again, take notes, highlight, do whatever it takes for you to know what to do. Indeed on your first try you will most likely be doomed by failure but you have a higher chance of overcoming that if you research everything again. Just because you have a pressure cooker, some mason jars and a microscope does not mean you can grow, you have to have sterile technique, patience, and a just cause in my opinion. Your probably either going to get lots of shit, or uninformative answers for your statements or no one will respond, one of those.

cool Thanks Roadkill , nice to get the odor concern out the way ,Yeah def gotta watch out for contaminants I understand how big of a problem can be,these microscopic Bast***s are everywhere! lol no joke,
Dephect , I don't think it's such a big deal a kid stealing a microscope, not like im robbing a bank or jewelry store,wasn't seeking financial gain, something else when a young kid steals a microscope, obviously he's interested in learning & gaining knowledge, that was my purpose , I grew up in a low income family , that's just my opinion tho , I respect yours as well tho I can see where you're coming from... to each is own
thank all you guys for the help tho

Well, think of the kid who comes from another low income family who won't get to use that microscope in school because you stole it. I came from a low income mid class status family as well, and I know very well of what the conditions are like, while other kids had their PS we were still rocking the NES. That being said its not the fact that you stole it, its the fact that you stole about it and then boast about it as a excuse to get spores.
On a more helpful note, I suggest you look here, and take everything into consideration before you start. Take another month or so to do research, create a log on what you are going to do. Think of it as a science experiment and record every single bit of data, review it and learn from your mistakes and better them. I suggest you start out with the PF tek (even though some say its outdated and needs improvement). BRF cakes are the best way to go if your a beginner, but if you feel ballsy go all out. I hope this helps, I didn't mean to offend.
