P.Mex-a and agar
    #21327551 - 02/25/15 11:17 AM (9 years, 10 months ago)

Any special agar recipe to get p.mex-a going? Looking to hedge my bets since these are not the easiest prints to come across (or even see on foil).

I have heard lots of people use MEA (Malt extract agar) and it works well.

I am growing some Tamp on Potato Agar and it is working. Although Malt Agar might be a bit better :shrug:

Agree that Tamp and PDA seem to be compatible. I suppose since they both fall under the Mexicanae section in the Psilocybe genus, that their performance on PDA should be about the same?!? :shrug:

Ok cool. Didn't want to over think it, but I really want to see what this beast can do, and certainly don't want to fuck up right outta the gate (if I can help it). :grin:

Thanks guys!

I've been using MEA exclusively for years with great results
for all the species that I grow. Psilocybes and Panaeolus love it.
