How much yield?
#21835519 - 06/21/15 05:11 AM (8 years, 7 months ago) |

Just thought I'd stop by and ask how much of a yield I can expect out of a standard small grow. Maybe just a 15-20 gallon walmart bin, with 3 cakes put in there. Now I know that yields are going to vary, and there can always be good or bad ones. But lets just say I was to get what most people would consider to be a medium yield of mushrooms. How many grams, once dried, does that translate to? I've never done it, so a rough guess would be that I'd get maybe 20 grams. But, I could see it being as high as 50. Am I in the ballpark? Again this is just in the standard walmart bin size with the standard 3 cakes.
Next question. Once dried, how should they be stored? In a ziplock bag in the refrigerator? Or can they be stored at room temp?
And another question: If properly stored, how long until they expire? How long are they safe to eat? And how long until the psilocybin breaks down/

All you have to do is pick the key word from every question you made and type into the site's search engine. You'll have the answers to all your questions in no time.
Just check pf grow log and you'll know what to expect if you decide to go down that road.

Alright, well I've been searching for about 30 minutes now. Haven't come up with much. There is a metric shit ton of threads on this site, and just about everything I've turned up is either not related, or if it is, it doesn't contain the specific information that I was asking for.
So I'm going to go ahead and ask again, for anyone who might want to help out someone new. People who aren't too busy to do it.

Don't expect anything and then be pleasantly surprised if and when you get something. The best way is to dry them with a dehydrator then put them in a desicant chamber for 24 hours or so. Then just store them in a mason jar with a little desicant pack in a dresser drawer and they will keep for years. I've done pf tek before and the yields are low. Expect like 2-3 grams per flush per cake, sometimes more sometimes less.

Just to give an actual answer here. It's as you say a very hard one to answer and very variable.
3 cakes is a fairly small amount, most people have about 5-10 jars going when theey use the PF tek, so yeilds won't be massive. A good flush is said to be about 3-5g per cake (though don't be so optimistic, it's very common for it to be less, especially your first time). If you're lucky, you may get 10-15g per flush and then depending on the other flushes a bit more. You're probably quite close with the 20g estimate there.
if it's not enough I'd advise either a bulk grow or using more cakes. Just remember your first grow shouldn't be about yield, but learning.

As far as your yield, if you're using half-pint typical PF TEK BRF Cakes, you'll end up with a tentative 5~8 dry grams out of each cake possibly more possibly less depending on your conditions, don't be disappointed if one of the cakes gives you only between 3 and 4 dry grams.
As far as storage, dried mushrooms can be safely stored at room temperature in a sealed container without any real loss of potency, if you want to be sure, you can dust your mushrooms up with some sort if dried Antioxidant to help prevent the breakdown of psilocybin but I'm not sure if that's a proven method. I've heard of mushrooms being kept for several years and still remaining potent without any special preservation methods, so it should be fine to keep it for a while, but I wouldn't try some time-capsule-for-the-grandkids experiments or anything. As far as the search function, I can confirm that any of your questions could have been answered with little digging.

There is no actual answer. You may get 0grams, you may get 100.
I'm sure you've seen this answer again and again if you've read that many threads.
So the answer is still 6

Except I'm guessing you'll get 4 psilocybins and 2 psilocins.

Here is to the shroomery becoming kind of dickish over the past 12 years
According to the TMC cubensis have a biological efficiency of 200 percent. I forgot the recipe but take a weight measurement of the dry brf that goes into 1 cake and multiply that by .8. That's how much wet mushrooms that cake should produce if it's multi spore in decent conditions. That is technically 80 percent bio efficiency. Don't expect anything near 200 until you are experienced and have collected a good isolate.
Also of course multi spore is always a crap shoot especially if you are a novice. Like it was said...expect nothing and relish any fruits you do get.
Good luck!

TMC is old and outdated. Not a good source of info anymore.

Man it keeps getting more and more expensive lol. Now I need a dehydrator, and a dessication chamber.
Yeah there seems to be two different methods of search. I'm a long time vbulletin forum junkie, and this site is probably the least efficient one I've come across, when it comes to relevant search terms. You search "stored" and it comes back with 100 entries of the thread "Went to the store today..." Where some... girl is talking about how her boyfriend was embarassed to buy her panties, or some such nonsense. The rest of the searches were pretty close to the same. So I hate to tell you guys but your search ain't all its cracked up to be. You normally don't have to look through 50 pages first before you finally find a thread that is actually worthy of looking through.
Unless someone wants to explain a better method of using the search, in which case, I'm all ears. This site seems to be pretty different from the other vbulletin boards I frequent.

you dont need a desicant chamber for anything.
press search our forums at the top right and you'll have options for your search. Sounds to me you're just typing in the bar and getting results from the pub or something

Seriously I just searched "how much yield" and didn't narrow my search and found several threads with the answer. 0-746648+ grams.
There's no magic formula. The forum exists as an open text book, questions are great when they're asked about something that is either rarely discussed in detail or not answered at all. For the rest, well read.
If you're too lazy to read and research in depth (not aiming at anyone) then I hope you fail.

There is no magic formula obviously. Magic isn't real silly. someone smarter than 98 percent of us although gave us a guideline that you can use to give you an idea.
Sarcasm and wishing people to fail and not providing any decent answers. Why bro....why?

Anyone find that using google and adding shroomery to the end of the search, works better than the shroomery search for threads?

Exactly what I do. Shroomery search is quite a joke sometimes. I just don't like the fact of using Google sometimes anymore
