Not all casings are producing fruits, yet. This can be a problem, since you can?t compare the different substrates if you don?t have any fruits from those substrates. Let?s give it some time and see what happens.

Possibly this test could demonstrate that extended periods of cold /suspended animation lead to lower numbers of pins ? As long as we learn something, I believe it's a sucess.

Not really - one test is never conclusive - especially on that type of hypothesis. At the end of the day, it will only demonstrate what many people already know - millet is a better substrate than rye/brown rice and most others...

I've been quite interested in conducting a similar experiment myself only using various mixtures of different nutritional ingredients in the same jar. I wonder the outcome of mixing WBS, BRF, verm, corn, etc.. in sensible combinations and ratios (not necessarily all of those in the same jar) to determine what variety of nutrients in the correct proportions will produce faster/better more powerful flushes. Instead of water I'm consider using nutritional (beef, chicken) broths in leu of or addition to just plain water. I wonder if a diluted agar solution would bring about any significant growth affects. What do you think? Agar Tek?

well agar is just for making a small piece o mycleium and tzhen spawninh some substrae. I owuld think agar spawns quicker than a syringe , but that's no suprise.Casue you've already got mycelium, whch a syringe doesnt have. Jazz (drunk)

Actually I'm thinking about adding those canned chicken broths to my jars because a.) they have already bean sterilized, b.) having already been sterilized and skimmed so I don't have to worry about my substrate thickening/sticking from protein coagulation. Also, since fungi are chemoheterotrophs I could image at least some benefits from adding extra amino acids. mmmm... vagina

Lol, no, that?s not the case, but in the moment there isn?t much to report. I harvested a couple of the casings, and the rest are either slowly beginning to pin, or they do nothing.
As I said, if I don?t get enough fruits from the "crucial" substrates, I will repeat the experiment at a later moment when I?m at home for a longer period of time.

Only a couple of casings fruited. So I won?t be able to use this batch for much.
I will repeat the experiment on a later time.

No pictures.
What I did harvest recently is a GT clone on birdseed and rye, and a B+ clone on birdseed and rye.
I will sent those in, let?s see if the tests can be made with them.

this place that your sending your fruits to be tested, is this open to the public? i would really like to send in some wild cubes here from louisiana just to get an idea of their potency compared to homegrown fruits.
-------------------- Its cube season on the gulf coast. Whats more natural than a man going out and collecting medicines? I like to take the heavenly route to hell.

Open to public...well, it depends, it?s the Mycology Department of the National Museum in Prag, Czech Republic. I know a person there who will try to get this thing organized.

If you have access to a spectrophotometer, all you need to do is extract w/ acetic acid/ether from the fruitbodies -- the analogues should be in a sufficient quantity to test the peaks on psilocybin in ethanol. I think the best is at like 256 nm, but I'd have to check. I know it's listed in Merck.
This would get you somewhat of a quantitative result -- probably enough if one were to have enough samples to provide a reasonable mean.
There's always TLC/NMR or HPLC, too....
