sure. i was just having a little joke - day off work today, and i'ma gonna spend it smoking, fiddling, tweaking, and tinkering 
good luck in your grow, friend: this the best hobby i ever started. you'll have fun.
sounds like this one was one to learn from - and you did. salvage what you can, and better luck next time. far more fun to get some cheapo jars, cheapo rice flour and vermiculite, and go for it. $10 and you're off again!

you don't need a pressure cooker, just a deep saucepan.
but you must get the patience thing (you can order it on 24h-anywhere.com for ?99 / $159) for some spores first.
you can set it all up while you're waiting

i dont have that kind of money you see.
ok let me get somthing straight here.
when the hay and spawn (spawn being some kind of grain suitible for this procedure) are mixed in a moist and warm environment. they start to mold, this mold is mycelum. then once you see it caked in mycelum, you must put in some moist soil. the soil give the mycelum nutrients and building properties to build the structure of the mushroom and finish up the whole process.
:P ?

no. when the (mouldy) spawn is mixed with the pastuerised or sterilised hay, the mould (mycelium) spreads to eat the hay. once it's eaten it all up, it's spawned.
then it can be covered with something to supply protection and moisture (among other benefits), and if you put it in a cooler, lighter, breezier environment for a couple of weeks, the mushrooms will be growing.

"So....
You should have done: Soak the hay in hot(170?F)water for an hour, drain well, let cool.
Then add the spawn(=grain) and mix it well.
Then put in the container, cover the container with aluminium foil, then let it sit for 2 weeks untill it?s colonized.
Then you should apply the moistened casing soil, cover with luminium foil again, let sit for a couple of days, then remove the aluminium foil and put osme translucent plastic over top.
Fan 2-3 times a day.
Everything above should be done in clean conditions with clean hands."
DAMN, what the fuck kinda kit is that? I thought kits are for people too lazy to do all the work involved in a real tek. My first(and only) kit involved opening the box, and watching it grow. But kits in general are not good. They use up just as much of your money, for 1/10 the final product. Plus you cant just magically make another kit appear when the old one runs dry. You can just magically make some more cakes though if using a real tek......

Maybe if you took the time and patients, as Anno put it, to look up the meaning of substrate, you'd avoided inserting your head inside your asshole. Just a thought.
