i have a dilemma...

i found some choice chicken of the woods specimens, the first i have ever found, fresh, juicy, they are really fantastic looking
 BUT
they were growing from what can only be a eucalyptus trunk
the guides all say that their is a high chance of getting sick from eating them (mud butt, stomach pain, vomiting)
BUT i still want to try it. im considering cooking up a small portion to see if my body can process it.
has anyone done this before? is this as dumb of an idea as i think it is? (and all my irl mushroom friends say its hella dumb too)
ADDITIONALLY: i was wondering if i could graft what specimens i have and get them to grow on the fir trees in my backyard or some other type of tree where i wont get sick from eating them
i have about two paper bag sack lunches full in the crisper in the fridge and im planning to cook them these weekend in case they actually do me
and again can i use the fruiting body to grow them on live trees on my property?

Your gonna be in a world of pain eating them. Clone them and then grow them out in your back yard or where ever

break apart the specimen that you want to clone and take a small tissue sample and put that onto agar or you could try to put it into an LC

Again I highly advise against eating any of the mushrooms that you found. :progectilevomit:

1. where can i get agar from? 2. i suppose i should try to get the tissue sample from closer to where the stalk is yes? 3. if and when my clone is succesful how should i transfer it onto the tree(s) on my property?

you are indeed an experienced mofo!
agar is basically a gel right? and ill want to put a thin layer on the bottom of my petri dishes right? what section of the store would agar typically be in in the asian market? is there a preferred brand that has better success rates?
and the isolating technique basically equates to finding essentially a "doubly landlocked" piece of mushroom meat from the center that has never touched anything ever.
what is the process i should follow for the "grain to wood dowels" technique and again is their a preferred preference of dowel with a higher success rate (and no contamination) and again where would i be able to find them?

Yea agar is a seaweed extract that vegans use instead of gelatin. I dont rly know where it would be in your chinese store its called agar agar. Ask them. No brand preference.
Yes a piece never exposed to open air until you break it open.
You would take colonized grain and put it into a bag with sterilized dowels and let them colonize. After that you would drill holes in freshly cut wood and put the dowels into it every 1-2 inches and seal it with wax and let that colonize then they will fruit.Quote:

1 scalpels are pretty easy to find. I see them in dollar stores all the time. A still air box is pretty easy to make look for transcending lifes tek its a good one, petri dishes and agar can be bought from one of shroomerys many sponsors 2 you will see the contams on the agar they will look totally different than the myc 3 see above ^^^^^
