That one because it's easy and provides a lot of mushrooms if you do it right.

Your very specific questions would turn up very specific search results.
Imagine if you answered the same thing fifteen times via PM and then got fifteen more PMs about the same subject. You would be inclined to tell the person to just start a thread so you can link the thread. Your thread will help other people.

BRF is Brown Rice Flour.
PF tek is just another name for BRF Tek. PF is Psilocybe Fanaticus Tek, which is the original BRF Tek. BRF is the ingredient so when you read BRF you can interchange PF with it and everyone will understand.
No idiocy man, I was there three months ago. I'm here to help,
You got a mentor in me, I'll just answer your questions in this thread instead of a PM.

All the info is out there. Can't expect us to always wipe your ass. Many of the legends on this forum learned all their info from Shroomery. Get to reading bud. I read night and day for about 6 weeks before I started my venture, I hopped straight into monotubs

I feel yeah, I started with pf cakes aswell, and with alot of time staring at my phone or the computer researching hearing my wife complain bout it lol ive gotten alot better. Just do your homework, if you cant do it, post and ask thats what ive always done, if the question isnt to stupid itll be answered usually quite quickly.

I feel your need for a mentor, you can find 1500 of them at www.shroomery.org
So at least you have come to the right place. Lets get started.
Where are you in your grow? What supplies do you have? Why do you want to grow? How many, and what kind of mushrooms would you like to grow?
If you want to know more, we have to understand more about you, the aspiring mycologist.

hahahha.. heres the thing. i haven't even started growing. and the reason for this is I am the kind of person who learns everything before diving in it gives me a clear advantage, but there is too much info i don't know what is important. I have jars, pressure cooker a room that stays the same temp year round. shouldn't be too hard to get the rest. i don't really know what kind i would like to grow, probably cubensis just for ease but i'd love to try them all. lets start somewhere easy. I want to grow so me and my family/chosen family can dose whenever we want and i can think of like 20 off the top of my head. so thats about how many i'd like to grow Thank you sokadin for making me realize i've been asking the wrong questions tune in to my post in the noob forum i will be carrying on from there. I will post this there aswell

I am going to link you something. Maybe ill get flamed because in this particular thread he suggests using 'LC', which is a 'Liquid Culture'. Ignore that, for the moment anyway.
I am linking this because it kinda helped me. I was lost with 'abbreviations' this, that, and the other. Its a PF tek. Its just one of the better ones IMO. It helped me grasp things a little bit easier with the pictures and how he explained things.

If you're that kind of person you should buy The Mushroom Cultivator and read it front to back. It skips the PF tek and starts right off the bat with agar and bulk. You already have a pressure cooker which is the most expensive thing. The next thing I suggest you do is construct a still air box and start playing with agar.
I'm aware that many people will disagree with me and call TMC outdated and push starting with the PF tek.
OP, I'm not saying that you should start with this instead of the PF tek, but I feel that you should know about all the different methods of cultivating mushrooms and decide for yourself.
I highly recommend RR's video for PF tek and TMC for learning about growing from agar and grain media if you want to do some heavy independent research. In the mean time, we're here to answer any questions you might have.
