I love logic!! Good one.

Buy the best you can afford and find the best jars to fit it. I think this is easier than finding a given cooker that fits certain jars(hope that makes sense, been a hashish-ridden day).

That website just won't load up. Been sitting for ages refreshing it.. grr! micro-science.co.uk does all of that too. It's on the expensive side also. They sell massive All American sterilizers but they are stupidly expensive!

n00b here!
Anyone suggest the best/most reliable source for a mycobox and spore syringe from a UK site?
Paranoid type question - is it better to buy the mycobox from one site and the spore syringe from another? Otherwise it looks a little 'obvious' if you know what I mean.

Howabout potseeds.co.uk for spores, makes sense ordering from two different sites to me

No cultivator on this forum will recommend that you go with a grow kit.
We will all tell you to do the pftek. By the time you pay the price for a mycobox, you could have the set up to be self sufficient for a few grows and yield a lot more for less cost.

Agreed! Just get a spore print from FSRE, go grab some supplies from local shops and your good to go.

Well you cant trust prints from fsre to be clean. I would suggest agar work to clean it up. I wouldnt expect to make a syringe from a print from there and it be clean.
I would suggest getting a syringe from a vendor. Or at least potseeds.co.uk. Dont quote me but I think that they get there syringes from mrca. I think I saw a syringe from them once and it had the mrca's logo on it.

If I had the storage space, I'd buy 'em and sell most of them on.
Not sure about the red thing, though.

I see what you're saying, however I want literally the minimal of effort in this. I think it is very very unlikely that I'll be making a habit of the shrooming.

Wow. I'm gonna start selling those. That's the kind of money-spinner that keeps a man from working. If there are people lazy enough to buy them I'm happy to do the work.

If you do, I'm sure you'll provide better instructions than what I'm seeing there.

Completely off-topic but if any UK users want more good poppy seed than you'd know what to do with me.
Thinking of some aggressive guerilla growing this year, any public space is a target.
