Just genetics amigo! Sometimes you bust and sometimes you flush, but never be afraid to try again.

I thought it was only verboten to plug non-Shroomery vendors.

We don't discuss sponsors in cultivation, these spores are for microscopy use only! Don't want them to get in trouble now do we As for non sponsors your free to mention them just don't try to post links to them or boost their products. Feel free to bash crappy vendors like spores101 or mushbox by name as they suck donkey balls and no one should purchase their crap unless they like contams and oysters labeled as cubes.

OP's weak flush is likely related to genetics, but I bet it's not genes alone. MS is wildcard but even MS is unlikely to be bunk given certain facets of procedure.
For instance, my question for you MustardTiger: Did you 'consolidate' your cakes ample time after colonized? 7 days is considered a suggestive minimum for PF cake consolidation, and in general for freshly-colonized grain food. Consolidation helps assure proper strength. Rushed fruits are more likely to be pale in potency.
I've experienced higher potency with increased colonization/consolidation times, too--and this was on grain. It was actually not really intentional, but I ended up leaving a few jars of grain that I planned on spawning to bulk fully colonized for 3 weeks. PrimalSoup was doing a project on this, which I didn't know about until after the jars were spawned. I thought, "Huh…we'll just have to see how this turns out…" Mr. Buffalo (unaware of all of this and really not giving two shits about how this is all done) commented that this harvest was much stronger than previous harvests. Conventional wisdom is that consolidation is only done for cakes to make them more cakey, and you should spawn to bulk at 100% for grain. So maybe there's something to this "consolidation to add potency" business. What have you got to lose by waiting a few weeks?
I'm curious how this has worked out for others.
Actually it's almost quite a common knowledge, around here at least, that consolidation can help ensure potency potential is realized. So there's definitely something to the consolidation-for-potency business, just like there's something to isolate-for-potency biz! With combining the many factors of potency including isolation, consolidation, quality grain growing, no destroyed colonies, less substrate mycelium, and more, potency can easily go from hither-tither predictable unpredictability to best-of-the-best.

Lol, SpitballJedi just got finished telling me that the idea of longer consolidation times affecting potency was bullshit.

Well then he has a lot of experienced growers and old hands speaking out against his case of it being BS. Hard to prove, sure. Hard to believe if you do it yourself, you bet it isn't. It's one of the major known reasons to 'consolidate' PF cakes, and a common explanation for 'bunk' fruits.

I think we should have a spores101 sucks balls thread to go with the growkits suck thread

first time I tripped out my own harvest I took 9.5gs with a maoi, 12 hours gone into hyperspace I though I died and was reborn a couple times among other things lol, scary and glorious, moral of the story dont be shy to take 3.5, or 4gs that seems to be the sweet spot for most males

mio said: powder in chocolates seems to intensify the experience a bit vs eating them regular in large pieces
more surface area, 3g can make me one with everything often
but its been a few months sine Ive last tripped.. chocolates just seems to intensify a bit/and more pleasant trip too (no nausea)
to the ones saying full stomach tripping is good: I once took 3.5g chocolates on full stomach then I decided they didnt work so I ate 1.5g chocolates more after 2 hours where nothing had happened my mind is new since ;-) heh suddenly they all hit at once it seemed
fast/eat very lightly/healthy, turn off+hide phone, be alone - my #1 rule in tripping
chocolates is even more love than an ordinary trip , try it.. worth the time, best way of eating them IMO
I'm totally making this. What's your recipe?
Mushroom chocolate recipe: coffee grinder, $15 , grind shrooms to dust dark chocolate plate, $2, enough for 10 trips at least or so icecube tray (1g each cube , add 1g powder into each, chocolate rest, stir with fork) melt chocolate , can be done in microwave or in cup on stove... (or double boiler/chocolate melter) freeze them in alufoil, lasts a year easily
no taste, no nausea, better than capsules IMO best way of eating them IMO (tried OJ,capsules,fresh,dried,red wine,with water,lemontek etc.) tastes like ordinary chocolates, or even better than those
I normally never eat chocolates, but mushroom chocolates are good :P
the bodyload/nausea part is much reduced, so good trip almost everytime much love in each trip and stronger trips than eating them raw IMO, little bit stronger (my dose is 3-4g with chocolates vs 4-5g normal or so)
remember to fast/eat very little before eating them or they dont work as good... or could work too strong after many hours suddenly
psytrance(youtube) and a walk in nature is essential for any trip too :-)

how many of you experience problems using MS? first time growing and I was quite unaware of what is being talked about with the potency varying... do less people use MS than I thought?

Them too my first grow with a spores101 syringe got me some crazy oysters. I was just referencing the link from poopy not realizing that not everyone has read it At least those cakes grew some cubes, I got oysters and nothing but with my attempt.
