I've read of people using baby food jars instead of Petri dishes!

I'm not sure what you mean. You can either PC the agar and then pour it into petri dishes or PC the agar already in containers (PP5, not petris). That's what the tek is I linked you. If you want to use petris then purchase some from a sponsor...they do have their benefits.

I def do not have any babies floating around yet, at least that I know of. I'll probably just go out and buy some of those small tupperwares.

I'm saying I know the tek I plan to use down to the T. I do not have the supplies needed to do the tek.

IE: Having everything you need to grow mushrooms minus the spores/syringe/subs. Can't grow mushrooms now can you?

Heat and mix your agar in a pan, pour into a clean long neck liquor bottle or canning jar to sterilize or use ball jelly jars with the white plastic plastic lids , Wal-Mart and sterilize in each individual jar . "Important" Make sure you use a lid that can breath, has a Gas exchange filter, or dont screw your lids down tight if going this route... They can blow up, if using pf style jars with sealed metal lids without a GE filter. Or you can Order a sleeve of sterile petri dishes to make things simple.

I love working on mushies while peaking/coming down. For some reason I always just see if I can feel the mycelium before even opening the lid. It's weird too often I feel bad vibes and find a contaminant in it and I'm like NUUUUU. Also enhanced vision makes me see things I could accidentally miss.

I also was on your thread earlier asking what happened to your fruits xD so I gotta be in on this thread.

Good job so far :congrats: looks like it's paying off for you today :P

Yea so pretty much right after I posted this I 100% remembered I had people coming to install carpet LOL

I feel like the last 3/4 of the tea had most of the stuff I wanted at the bottom so I'm kinda glad I didn't drink it as I already knew the day would be an adventure. Had like 6 mexicans installing carpet in my house and only one knew how to speak Egnlish, barely.

Carpet looks good though :laugh:

Yesterday 5/06/2015



Today 5/06/2015 - Some of the cakes I believe were ready for a second flush so they are currently dunking. Have harvested from about 3 cakes in total and I'm coming up to about an oz, dry.

Haha I appreciate it, very very much! I too am surprised that I didn't have any mishaps. I thought for sure I would lose half my jars but I lost NONE! First attempt was/is very successful! I just weighed what I have dry and its actually about 20g but hell, thats off 3 cakes on the first flush! Well the 3rd cake still has about 1/2 of its flush coming in still.

I really wanted to get into agar as I bought the powder almost a week ago but I keep forgetting to get some petri dishes. (I'm going to actually order those right now from a sponsor if they have them). I got a Albino A+ spore print from a vendor a little while ago I used to make a grain jar for transfers. I plan to cultivate about a 20x20 area outside to somehow figure out a huge grow patch here VERY soon. I have inground sprinklers though so I'm kind of worried a patch might get too waterlogged so I'll have to figure out the timer settings on that.

Mycosupply has great petris, but outgrow I believe has the sectioned ones. How are you drying your shroomies?

I'll check them both out and probably order a few of each. I'm drying my shrooms out using a fan for 24 hours then putting it into a drying chamber I made. Its a big tupperware box that I put a smaller tupperware in. The smaller tupperware I put polyfill on the bottom then damp-rid on the top. Then close the lid making sure it is air-tight. Been working all right for me.

Nice set up! I have a huge roll of 1/4in mesh that I bought because I made a styrofoam cooler terrarium because of that stupid erowid guide. I ended up bending that shit into a little cage i can drop my freshly harvested fruits in and just set that on the fan for 1-2 days.

After that I have a large tuperware bowl I put a wire mesh circle on the bottom, then a paper towel, and on the paper towel is my desiccant. Then another wire mesh circle and the shrooms just chill on that for a day or two.

Just gotta use it until i get that dehydrator :wink:

Same here, I went to bed bath and beyond and the dehydrators there a little too expensive for me right now. I did see Walmart had a dehydrator for like $40 though but I'm not sure if I should buy it.

Yea I do :laugh:
However I don't feel like spending more then $50 on a dehydrator right now as I'm pretty broke right now lol. I did check them out though, but mainly I just seen very similar ones to the one I posted at Walmart. I might just go pick it up and see how it works.

Could just make your own. All you need is a fan style space heater or a fan with a heater, a container to put them in, and shelves. Use a monotub or wood. Essentially that's all that a food dehydeator really is. Most people can make them for free haha
