Transporting colonizing substrate jars
    #19401574 - 01/10/14 11:02 PM (10 years, 20 days ago)

I'd like to share what I'm going through, I can't tell anyone I know so I feel very alone in this. The cultivation question will be the last lines if you don't care to read through it.

The basic circumstances are I have a shady housemate who I've tripped with an knows I am growing shrooms. He wasn't shady before and I learned a fucking lesson, NEVER TELL ANYONE THAT KNOWS WHERE YOU LIVE WHAT YOU'RE DOING! And even better, just tell no one.

The owners of the house we are both renting rooms from have already had some pretty serious problems with him (none with me). He once stayed in his room 10 days to avoid rent, didn't leave cept to use restroom. He also smokes fake bake, smokes meth, does some shady shit that only I know about. He has no respect for anyone but himself and is very manipulative.

I do not feel safe living with him. I can't rat on him while taking the chance he will rat on me. I also fear some drama could go down between us causing him to rat me out, or that he could use it as leverage against me.

I have 12 almost fully colonized jars, my best friend lives 3 miles from me. My plan is to drive the 3 miles and leave the jars at his place, tell the owner's it's him or me and explain the situation. When he rats on me I'll be clean. The only other options are to throw them away, or ignore my house mate and hope for the best with constant underlying stress for the next 3 or so weeks - then dry/powder/store in my amazing spot and try to get him out.

My question's about transporting these jars and how to go about it, if I make sure they're not knocked around and in a sterlite container maybe with waded paper holding them in place a good idea? Or should I cut my losses and throw all 12 away - if so how?

Was gonna ask the same thing. PF jars? Filters or micropore tape or anything on them?

Definitely don't throw them away. That'd be a huge waste. Sounds like a really shitty living condition. Personally I'd try to change it one way or another. Even if you have to find a new place. Sounds like a lot of negative shit. Shitty people tend spread their negative shit on everything around them.

I'd get the jars to your friends place and tell your landlord it's you or him. Grain jars with filters could easily be transported. PF jars you'd wanna be little more careful. At least make sure there's micropore tape over the injection holes and try to be gentle to disturb the dry verm layer as little as possible.

i would take them 3 miles down the road, or find a new place to live, even if your not staying in the same room the meth head would prolly end up stealing your hard earned mushrooms

atleast from my experience with meth heads even if its your brother or own family they will still steal from you and manipulate you to get their ways.

From how OP described said room-mate, I feel that this could be dangerous.

Sounds like a horrible situation. I mean, if you aren't driving through extremely rough terrain and you put this "micropore" or whatever it is over the inoculation hole, you should be fine IMO.

Thanks for the support and info guys :-D! I keep a safe distance from him as of late, my main concern is by telling my homeowners about what he's doing he will try and get back at me by telling the homeowners I got mushrooms growing in my room. Not to mention I have a gram of DMT and a quarter of 50x Salvia (he's unaware of this but if searched I'd be FUBARed) I best tread with extreme caution. I don't believe if I don't tell the homeowners about what he's doing and stay to myself - he'd have reason to narc on me and if he did narc on me the homeowners would likely confront me before calling the feds. They and I have a good relationship as friends. But like I said "extreme caution" as in picture the worse case scenario being plausible.

A part of me wants to let him leave or get kicked out on his own which is inevitable and keep a cool low key distance from him. My grow should be done in 4 weeks at the very most, once they are stored no one will find them at which point I can voice my concerns to the homeowner and look for a new place if they refuse to let him go. If something bad happens before then, I'm threatened, or am aware he told the homeowner's for whatever fucked up reason - I will have a plan to evacuate the substrate jars ASAP. I'd rather avoid the drama for now, and avoid driving with a shroom lab in my trunk essentially as there's no immediate danger. Also if the homeowner's don't kick him out, my room will never be a safe zone to grow as long as he lives here which means I would never get the jars back. I don't know how the homeowner's will react as I have no solid evidence.

After heavy contemplation this seems like the most rational plan subjectively speaking, but it's always good to get some objective perspectives on it as well. What's rational to me has been irrational in the past. 

They are PF jars without micropore tape - I'll be sure to have some micropore tape handy for evacuation if a situation arises. I will also have a cardboard box with foam cut out for the jars to insert in quickly so they wont be thrown around in my trunk. I will have a blanket to throw over the fruiting chamber and the trunk space designed to hold the terrarium in place for when they're in the fruiting cycle.

I am an addict in recovery, got 7 months from all substances (excluding Salvia, DMT, and Psylocin of course - but I don't consider those "substances" they have served medicinal value as a part of my recovery) and 3 years from my DOC meth. So I am well aware what addiction can do to people I choose not to engage in close relationships with addicts as a result. They're not only dangerous relationships to engage in but tend to be superficial as well. It's not difficult to avoid these types of people for me as I have plenty of experience with it. He's not a room mate, I can easily avoid him, and I don't get triggered by his actions, at the same time it doesn't help with him being here.

The hiding spot for my psychedelics is pretty amazing, I'd be amazed if feds found it without a drug dog trained to smell psych's which is highly unlikely they would be. I'm not worried about him jacking me once they're done, I'm only worried about a extreme possibility of a search while I'm growing since he knows about it and is retarded. After they're dryed they will disappear lol.

I really do like this place and that's what sucks. A nice house down the street from work, school, N.A., my gym, and my outpatient rehab. Plus like I said, I am good friends with the landlord's.

good for you man, sounds like ur on a good path!  I'm also former addict (except it was dope) and still gotta take suboxone everyday  :frown:  i had a similar situation, my friend was still using when i got out of detox and his dad was friends with the landlord.  when our other 2 room mates found out he was shooting up (they got locked out and had to break in thru his bedroom window when he wasn't home and saw the needles), they told the landlord, but with no solid evidence, nothing could be done.  i think u have the right idea, not rocking the boat, it could make the living situation way more tense, it really fucked up a long friendship i had (even though i didn't snitch, he thought i was in on it with the other 2 room mates).  it got so bad, i had to wait for my friend (the roommate user) to leave for work one morning, got all my shit (which wasn't a lot, sold most of it for dope!) and LEFT.  slept in the Philly amtrak station for a week because i just moved to the city and had no friends there, no car, no money and couldn't go back to my dads, he kicked me out for drugs in the first place which is how i ended up with another user.  i have not talked to him (the friend) since.

this is a great hobby that has really helped me in so many ways, both for the mushroom experience itself as well as the discipline, cleanliness, and attention to detail it takes to grow.  all of those things have manifested into my normal work a day life to help me in some way or another.  i wish u luck and hope it does for you what it has done/continues to do for me, both cultivation and end experience  :raveface: 

still tho..be careful.  the less he knows the better...

Ya I may just tell him all my jars were contam and I threw em out if it's brought up again lol but like I said I'll be avoiding him like a plague so it most likely won't be brought up. I'm actually considering colonizing 12 more to be "one and done" so to speak. I did find out 3 of my 12 jars are contam's today :'( I hope more don't contam one's just not growing shit lol, I'm planning to make a couple year supply for me and my close group of friends to trip together (never will I sell I'm not retarded and it goes against my morals). I just figure the risk isn't in how much I grow as how long I'm growing. If I'm caught with 9 jars or 20, growing is growing and it will suck ass equally. Bulk growing should of been my plan from the beginning, but better now then later. My new plan is - Grow a shit ton in a short time frame, dry to crackers, grind to powder, vacuum seal, store hidden very well for years to come :-).

I got Pink Buffalo's, B+ colonizing, and will prolly inoculate Golden Teacher's and Cambodian's this weekend.

My guess is the first batch I have will be done fruiting really close to when the second batch is done colonizing, so I'll prolly use the same terrarium for both grow's to keep it somewhat concealable (I can throw a blanket over it if need be without it looking like I got a body under it lol).

Psychedelics have provided value as a part of my recovery in several ways:
- They allow me to see what I can be doing better and how by seeing my day to day life from another perspective - it's like being the counselor instead of listening to one (both are equally valuable)
- They allow me to see how shallow and hollow recreational substances are (feel good, get me nowhere good - pointless) in this way they trigger me to not be triggered by them as easily
- Allow a greater connection with the higher power of my understanding
- Teach me to face fears, namely the fear of change
- Inspire creativity and connect me to my "inner child" which was torn away in addiction
- Satisfy the addictive urge to alter consciousness without being of themselves addictive to me at all.

Among many other things, but I don't want this post to be too long lol

One of my most amazing trips was I shroomed and saw addiction as if I wasn't ever an addict. I got what it was like to not get it. It was weird, I was very separated from the action and saw it for what it was for the first time. And I didn't get it. I had ego death and saw life as such a beautiful thing, beyond words, and impossible. I didn't get why I would want to risk throwing that away for some powder. It made no sense to me. To this day, this epiphany as been engraved deep on my soul and I still reflect on it pretty often 2 months later.
