I found them on Grass???? I just didn't think simply grass would be a substantial substrate... I'm sorry, I've read many threads about transferring mycelia to wood chips, and that just came out as an example... I know they like stable-like areas, would it work if I transfer to grass with aged/ partially broken down horse manure with some hay or something like that??? I would just prefer to grow out side if possible...
-------------------- Theres acid rain in my brain and its killing the flowers in my heart...
I tried making sense of it, and then I realized I should be trying to make sense as to why I was even trying to make sense...
All I know is that I'd rather take a pile of physically harmless mushrooms every couple of months to bring me back to nature and the universe, than to chug a large cup of coffee every morning just to have the energy and will to go to school/work.

for outdoors a mix of h-poo and grass clippings would be great!i'd start piling up the spots right now and turning the pile every day till it's dry and aged, you don't want green grass clippings in there. i would love to see some pics of your dishes

Its all destroyed!!! God damned contaminations! Screw thissssss. Hahaha I swear, I'm going to cry. Mushrooms are the so important in my life! But, idk how long I can afford to keep buying $20 an 1/8. I've never been so excited about anything in my whole lifeeee, now what do I have? A total failure... I transferred and then left them for a day, and the agar plates dried out! Why do the mushroom Gods despise me?!?! Will someone please tell me a BEGINNER method I can use... My biggest problem is no one will deliver spores to Cali... And I think I'm using contaminated prints. I dont know what I can do, I want to just buy everything I need and do it 100% "by the book" so to speak, for my first time... buttttt whats the point of spending that money if I'm not even gonna be growing anything thats worth it you know? haha Does anyone know of anywhere that will ship to Cali???

you should watch the agar section (maybe all of it and even buy it - I did ) . the musics a little rough but That will help you learn how to "clean up" a spore print. basically once you see growth you transfer the growrth to a new clean plate - isolating it from contams. sometimes you only need to do it once, sometimes three, somtimes you don't need to at all.
I'm sure some kind gentlemen of the shroomery will be willing to send some cubensis prints, to an attractive young cali girl like yourself.
(cubensis are a more beginner friendly strain)
ask around if you haven't already been pm'd
some might demand some sort of favors in return though - they're usually from Virginia

Oh wow! How generous!!!  Well you see, this is all almost too kind coming from all of you folk, I mean I don't even know you! Wait....... I don't even know you? .......... Oh yeah. However; I do have to thank you all for the so very generous offers I have received this evening
Unfortunately, I have to decline... You know, I may not fit the normal mushroom hunters profile, but that doesn't mean I'm some fucking retarded air head either. I really didn't wish to be made fun of when I created my account here... Just because you don't want to help me, or I seem inexperienced doesn't mean I want demeaning Jokes thrown at me on my posts. ( Not trying to be a bitch, but it simply seems a little immature to me... As if I'd solicit my self for any other purpose than crack <<< THat was a joke by the way.......

Isn't having the proper items to do it with a contributing factor??? Unfortunately, it just isn't really possible for me to do a lot of mushroom cultivation related buying right now... I just wanted to give it a shot with what I had. Uhm My bad...? Oh wait no it isn't...

Absolutely. Unfortunately for you, you're not willing or able to gather the necessities; and as such have a much higher failure rate. You took that risk, and you reaped the rewards.

Why Thank you(: ... But damn, I'm not so sure about some of the "gentlemen" on shroomery anymore. hahahaha. Seriously though I'd pay for some prints if someone wanted to sell them to me! I would be overly happy(: haha

They teach agar work to high school students nowadays, so it doesn't really get any more noob-friendly. And seriously, don't fret. You have several things going for you: you live in a mountain of h-poo with pans growing all around you. Any mistreatment you receive here that's not due to the internet being the internet is probably jealousy based. You know how many people here would kill for that setup? Virginia Gentleman is one of them. Seriously, don't give him your address.
You wasted thirty cents worth of agar on those plates. This is not a life-ruining failure. Get on your horse and ride around until you see more clonable specimens. Make like ten more plates at the same time, and do it with more water this time. You're shooting for 2-3% agar by weight here. That's 3-4.5 grams per ten dishes and 150mL water.
If you want to splurge, go get some fish antibiotics for like ten bucks at the pet store. Tetracycline is broad-spectrum and will definitely help with bacterial contamination. If not, just transfer away from contams onto plates you already know to be good (because you were able to grow your clone on one made in the same batch).

Yeah, not able to... and all I was doing was asking for a recommended tek thats easy for beginners, and I asked for a few tips on how to prevent this from happening again... You decided to say I told you so... (real "mature"?????) and Make a joke about bidding me off. WTF. That really is not all that funny...

Wow. Thank you very much... THIS was helpful(: haha I'll be going on a ride early in the morning to go hunting, and hopefully I'll get a couple actives, and can make a positive ID on them, so I can start again... Maybe a little better prepared this time... or A LOT(: hahaha

It's a basic idea of mixxing and sterilizing agar, then introducing samples and waiting
wash rinse and repeat until you have clean growth
not many people are willing to help if you do not have the incentive to learn on your own. it's simple
