Popcorn Tek Growing

Hey guys, i am buying 5 syringes of psilocybin cubensis pretty soon, and i plan to use at least 1 of the syringes using this method: My question is that is this a good and cheap method just to start with? I will have 4 other syringes to use after for other teks. I don't care about a massive yield this first run. In the video, it shows him directly injecting the spores into the casing, then it shows his mushrooms that grew inside that casing. What steps did he do to grow the mushrooms after injecting the casings? How would i introduce the whole case to fruit while keeping it in the casing? Can i check for the myc growth after i inject it? Thanks guys.

Go buy a big bag of WBS or find a grain supplier to get your rye or wheat.
Popcorn, although it works, is nowhere near ideal.
You're going to want to read every single link on this page and this page, and go from there, and ask questions if you need to.
Cased grains are and there is no reason you need to buy five syringes of spores at a single time.
Also, if this is Joe my old roommate, hit me up with a text, I'll help you out.

I saw that using WBS is a another good method, i'll look into WBS. i'm gonna look at those threads you posted, and what do you mean by cased grains are bad?
What i want to do is grow my mushrooms in a monotub i think is what it's called. Like, i don't want to do the cakes, i want a flat surface for them to grow on. I'm guessing i colonize the spores in a few mason jars, then i spawn them into a substrate into my tub, then, i put them in a fruiting chamber(monotub).
I'm buying 5 syringes because it's a great deal for what i'm getting them for. I might get 6 for $35.

Corn sux WBS ,Rye and wheat grain are better and well worth the time you'll spend on it.

OP, that's a d-casing and it seems pretty bunk. I would not waste my spores on it.

It's also set up for failure....
Grains, especially popcorn, should be sterilized, not steamed.
There is a 90%+ chance of failure if you follow that video....lol.

Yeah, you can. But if you plan on doing more than 3-4 bags you're going to get a better ROI on a PC than pre-sterilized bags.

Whenever I see you post in mush cult, I will advocate for every person to put your ass on ignore.
Put this ignorant poster on ignore. Nothing s/he says will be helpful, and s/he will try to trap you into trading illegal substances. Fuck that.

I have had success with popcorn. Its very convenient to prepare and seems to colonize nicely. But I have read that it does not give as many inoculation points due to the size of the kernels compared to WBS.
