So I was planning on buying a mushroom growkit because they are so fast, but I can't find one that will ship to the US. (Anyone who can help with that issue feel free to lmk) So I decided it might be high-time to start growing mushrooms. Who can point me in the right direction of where to even begin? I know about PF teks and such but people have talked about ways to get unlimited mushrooms from just one spore syrienge. So yeah what is your advice for me. Best beginner tek? Best tips and tactics? Anything? Love you all.

Kits are overpriced and often contaminated. Do not get one.
PF cakes are a very easy way to get your feet wet. Its pretty user friendly and has a low learning curve.
People who grow forever from a single syringe are using agar and are rolling with culture. A good culture can be kept alive for decades. You only need a single drop from the syringe to get going when agar is on your side.

If you have a syringe you can grow mushrooms.
If you grow even one mushroom and print the spores you can grow and grow and grow forever and ever. Keep getting the spores, keep growing shrooms.
Start with PF tek if you're just looking for a few 8ths.
Google 'Let's grow mushrooms' and follow the directions of PF Tek to the T.
You need to be completely sterile when you work or you will fail.

i would recommend the PF-TEK but in the V-TEK invitro containers IMO it just takes most of the environmental variables outta the equation which makes it harder to fuck up. I am testing the V-TEK currently and it seems very noob friendly heres the link http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21390984
my V-TEK example
 either way good luck
