The last several months I've been wondering why it has taken my jars so long to colonize, including the p. tampanensis. The only thing that made any sense is that perhaps the USPS has changed their tyvek envelopes, which I use as filters in my jars. Who knows? Gotta start with a hypothesis to reach a conclusion. So a few weeks ago I bought a bunch of synthetic filter discs. I again used my HEPA air filter, placed on the counter on its side, as a sort of flow hood. I removed the lids from the p. tamp jars, took out the tyvek filters and replaced with synthetic filter discs. No contamination and everything's looking OK.

Sclerotia (stone) production has definitely speeded up in the last couple of weeks:

It's been almost 3 months. I probably won't harvest until I'm ready to bioassay. Guess I should calculate the BE, thanks for the reminder. I'll open one jar and also attempt to fruit with the sub that remains after I pick out the stones. Keep the remaining jars growing.

LOL One of the reasons I love this hobby is because of the all the different opinions and experiences. Here's what an old timer told me recently:
Quote:
Trip is way different, its real nice clean very little visuals open and closed eye. But you can feel the strength of it in a super body feel that is nice. Couldn't even move on high doses, It kinda has a sleepy style dreamy visions. Wasn't really what I expected but a good one either way.

I recently had a level 3+ experience on only 2g dried PE so I know how widely experiences can vary from person to person. But the good news for sclerotia growers like me is that I have yet to hear of a bad trip on stones. Perhaps because of the type of person who has the motivation and patience to grow them.

The substrate seems to be shrinking significantly especially in this jar. It started about 2/3 full and is now less than 1/2.

What is the longest time that any one here on the Shroomery have reported to have let stones stay in their jars?
I hear 6+ for really strong and mature stones, but has any one done a year, or 18 months, or would they simply dry out and stall at a certain point?
just curious, Thanks.

Most people say to harvest after 9 or they start to go bad. I have no personal experience though.

Here's a Shroomery post of stones grown for at least a year: Psilocybe mexicana / a one year old bag of stones
I didn't want to harvest these until I am able to bioassay but it seems obvious their time is now.

I was able to harvest 23.4g stones. Not much but I'm still happy I mixed the leftover colonized grains with 1 qt coco coir/straw/coffee grounds sub to see if I can get fruits.

Yeah I could definitely kept these stones going for a while longer. Bit of a false alarm, lesson learned. However I'd planned to open it soon so no problemo. Still have two more jars cranking
