the 200$ dollar question
#1729751 - 07/19/03 07:02 AM (20 years, 8 months ago) |

A friend said that to help me grow bulk(I am poor and jobless right now ) he would give me 200dollars and all I have to do is pay him back in shroomage, 200$dollars worth , up here grams are 5 bucks, which leaves me thinking I would owe him 40 grams! dry
So if I started some birdseed jars and then cased in a simple verm casing could I pull this off? How many jars????
Should I use birdseed? I want bulk here!, I have heard great things about seed. How quick could I produce these 40 grams if things went well, this would be a big step up for me
thanks Psilocybeing
p.s. I dont think I will need 200 dollars but thats the deal , I get 200 to give back 200 dollars in dry shrooms , which after I thought about it is a great deal , I would have to be pretty greedy to say no

syringe off the net $13-20 vermiculite $5-10 brown ricee flour $5 canning jars $5-10 rubbermaid bin from walmart $7 perlite (foir humidity) $5
total = $40 - $57 more or less, thse were high estamates mostly just ot make sure. so, either only take like $60 bucks and grow him that much and keep the rest of the shrooms to yourself, or keep the extra money and grow him a bunch of shrooms. but be aware! it'll take alot of time to grow!

My friend recommends that you start with birdseed and use it to spawn straw & dung. His favorite casing is a mixture of coir and verm.

Sounds like a good idea to have an investor like that. However I just wanted to note that my first three attempts at growing got foul. As I understand it most first time growers screw up a couple times before they get lucky. Maybe build that into your figures.

you have to know everything your doing to be successful your first time. You must do everything by the book, which means no shortcuts and no improvising...research absolutely eveything you are going to do until you understand it and can recite it in your head without looking at your teks...once you know it, proceed and you should ahve little to zero problems.
Patience is the key

It might not be a bad idea to make mycelium syringes using the honey tek in order to stretch your spores out. Inoculate your WBS with that and do G2G transfers to get a large amount of spawn. Then spawn to poo/straw. Two cases of quart jars would cost around $15 and that's 24 quarts that you can spawn to poo/straw. Good Luck.

"Inoculate your WBS with that and do G2G transfers to get a large amount of spawn." sorry whats that? "Then spawn to poo/straw." So that means get the mtcelium to start growing on the poo\straw right 24 jars that a "spawn" to poo\straw? since you seem to be wise , is birdseed easier?, I didnt want to work with poo and straw really, what will 1\2pint jars of birdseed say about 30 make when turned mostly into casings VS poo\straw wet weight I suppose thanks
