the soot on the needle after it heats up is apparently fine to keep on (wiping off leads to more cotam)
and if you heat the needle up just enough to turn it red then let it sit for 30 seconds or more it should be ok without killing any spores.

BTW, anyone got any GT or PB grows under there head? I`d like to know, colonization estimates and if its aggressive on rye berries.



A cube is a cube is a cube. You may find that your two syringes grow differently, but in the end "strain" has nothing to do with it. Sorry to be the nay sayer, but unfortunately strains with shrooms really aren't like strains with marijuana.

I know this, but most of the time there are key differences, I mean one strain is from north America and the other Thai land, one may grow better and be more potent, one may fight off cotam better, I know the PB is more potent then the GT not by much as like you said, there both cubes

I have grown ecuador, a South American strain, pesh, hawaiian strain, and orissa India, obviously from India. Despite some of them colonizing or fruiting at different rates, they all were about the same and I don't attribute any differences to strain. Again, I hate to be a boner, but strain really does not make a difference, and even if it did, good growing techniques make a much bigger difference.

you wouldn't happen to know where I could purchase some  Psilocybe weilii syringes? or spores?

(I`ll be posting picture of the grow once the spores arrive)

bags got here sooner then I thought, a lot smaller than I thought too.



seems like ima need 2 to each tub and 2 50/50 1lb bags to each tub too, but that still might be a deep enough for good growth.

also, some of my grain is a different color, looks wetter too.

spores are on there way, along with my spawn bags.
these are my mini monos I've built one with 10, 1in holes filled with pollyfil the other one with 20 smaller open holes, I wanted to try both way. does this look "acceptable"






The ten-hole looks like you put the holes a quite a bit higher than the ideal.  You really want them just above the level of the substrate.  Two 1-3/8 holes per long side and one hole just beneath each handle is probably optimum for that setup, but give it a try.  You can always cover up holes with packing tape and drill new ones, right?

It's borderline.  I can't tell if that's bacterial or just damp.  Does the wet spot stay in that location regardless of how you orient the bag?  Try leaving it on the counter for a while in a different position and see if it moves.

Ultimately, unless it gets any worse in the next couple of hours, I'd just take a few more pictures to document it, inject and then wait.  You'll know if it's contaminated later on for sure, and you can show them this thread and your pictures and odds are they'll replace it.

I know they'll replace it, its just that wait time, lol
I just added a few lower holes to the pollyfill tub and ill sit the bag on its side too see.

looking more at it, its just that one bag, on one side. I think its just damp, but its the only damp spot in all of the bags. idk how they should look but they look kinda dry

They should look dry, but they should be moist on the inside.  You'll have to take that on faith, though, unless you want to crush a grain through the bag and check.

I'm sure I'm just being paranoid this being my first grow,:rolleyes:  but some of the grains look popped, like they started to germinate

another question, the injector port on the bag is far above the spawn, do I just let the spores drip onto the grain, or try to maneuver the needle into the grain?

you can just shoot them into the grain, they can drip, but if you plunge a syringe you should get a nice jet stream coming out.  No need for the needle to be inside the grains.  Aim it at the grain shoot it up and gently kneed the grain around to mix the spores inside it.

Edit:  Also, you can put polyfill in the smaller holes i'm pretty sure w/o preventing airflow too much.  The bag looks ok, my grains usually look like that, most of them appear kinda dry with some wet spots. 

Now i know you've already started but I am going to recommend the sgfc with trays.  to me it seems like you're not going to have a ton of substrate. you're going to want 3-5" of substrate at the bottom of those tubs.  If you've got enough that's fine.  But the nice thing about SGFC is you can spawn to trays that accommodate for however much substrate you have.

by kneed do you mean move the grains around gently? of actual breaking up of the grains
