Look into using LC.  It will save you money and things will colonize faster.




Forget about LC. :thumbdown:



this.
at least from spores.
look into grain lc's.




Ive never had a problem with spores. And they are still very easy to
work with. But grain LC's are solid as well.

its not that they're harder to work with,
its that lc from spores has a greater chance of being
contam'd, which you won't know till
you shoot a test jar.
a fully colonized jar of grain is clean, almost guaranteed.

I've had contam problems in the past.  Seemed like Earth's Tongue did some real shady business, cause we were doing it with the method I described and we were getting so much mold.  To a point where half the cases had to be thrown out due to it.  We pressure cooked the jars, we inoculated them in front of a hepifilter, we used alcohol on everything to sterilize it.  But Earth's Tongue gave us some batch of mushrooms that were all sorts of messed up.  The spores kept growing different with every syringe, even tho we ordered only one kind.  And the mold OMG.  I've never gotten so much mold, even with how sterile we kept everything.  It was insane.  I'll never buy from Earth's Tongue again.

Seems Sporeworks is where I'm lookin' into going.  They seem extremely legit and they've got the PF Classics that I want to order.  I was thinking PF Classics and Amazonians should do.  I've done Amazonians for years lol.  Any strain suggestions?

I'll mention I'm from here for sure.  As for the surprise pack...  Wouldn't that mean I get strains that wouldn't work with my method?  There were some strains that never turned out in the past with my method.  Like Golden Teachers.  I never got those to grow on LGBR & Vermeculite.  I'll check it out, tho.

The name on the syringe doesn't matter, they will all work the same.

Wait, it doesn't matter?  WTF?  lol.  I've always thought the strains do matter for potency, how they grow, what they grow on, etc.?  I used to grow Cambodians, Amazonians, Storm Chasers (haven't been in stock in years, tho), Australians, etc.  And each had different caps, each grew a bit differently, etc.  But hey, I'll believe you guys.  You guys really seem to know what you're doing compared to what I learned myself.  So I'll trust you guys.

Alright, so let's get this straight here.  What method is going to work best for me?  Should I just use my old method or is anyone here willing to direct me to a different way?  I need something that isn't going to be too expensive, has a decent yield, and will be easy to figure out.  I'll need to know ingredients, type of jars or bags I'll need, etc.  The whole sha-bang.

And once I get it going, I'll be sure to throw up some pictures for everyone to enjoy!  =)

Think of a strain like a human family or race.
Maybe they are all red heads. Or have dark skin.
But their nutritional requirements, growth rates, intelligence, etc will all average out about the same.
Same thing with strains. The differences don't make a difference in cultivation.
(Also, it's not really a 'strain', but that's a different discussion, see the Strain Thread for more info.)

I'd recommend PF Tek as shown in RR's videos. Or grains spawned to coir.

Yeah, I was just reading that article.  It's quite interesting.  I'll probably do the special deal then on the site.  lol.  And I know Sporeworks is going to be legit, so I'm not worried about getting ripped off like Earth's Tongue did to me.  I ordered 10 syringes of Amazonians from him and they were probably the most contaminated garbage I've ever bought.  The guy used to do such great business with me a few years ago.  Now he's just sending out garbage.

Yeah, I'll take a look at that video as soon as I get home.  I'm planning to get started on this within the next month (depending on how long it takes to gather up materials.)  I'm going to start trying to get everything to at least get the process started.
