Need Advice, unique situation.
    #22130065 - 08/23/15 09:12 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Hello there guys, Pretty new to the forum and mycology research. Anyway here is my question. I want to grow some shrooms but I work in a job where I move every 4-6 weeks. That means I need a portable tech which can stand a car environment for 1-3 days. Is this possible? If a get a incubator and start my spores in a liquid culture could this work? Here's what I'm thinking of getting.
Ultimate Mushroom Growing & Incubator kit,  on this page http://midwestgrowkits.com/grow-kits.html
. Need some advice guys what spores would work well for a quick grow and is this plan feasible?

I'm not sure, it seems from my research that 4 weeks total is a bit optimistic from spores to fully grown shrooms. Like I said this is a unique situation but for financial reasons this job is too good to lose. Do you have any suggestions? And no I was planing to drive with the shrooms in a dark box or the like not with the whole grow system still set up.

you dont wanna buy a kit man, no matter how much they brag about their beautiful grow bags and stuff.

look into sclerotia formers, just inoculate a jar and let sit for 6 months.

I'd say research sclerotia. they take longer to mature (6 months or so) but grow inside of a glass jar so you don't have to worry about transporting the fruiting cambers about

every 3-4 months I go outside of the usa for a few weeks, so I'm not too sure about this 6 month grow? is there no way to get full shrooms in 4-6 weeks even with optimal equipment?

The usual consensus is that grow kits suck, so don't bother with one of those.

I think since you're new that sticking with old skool BRF cakes could be best, just need to time it right and you can travel with cakes that are mostly colonized, or better yet, fully colonized, and they're pretty indestructible at that point. You can carry them in a cooler if you are travelling in warm climes and they'll be ready to pop out into your prepared SGFC.

This is all assuming that you will be able to grow them at your destination and give them what they need there.

Inoculate some grain spawn 2 weeks before you move. Then when you get to your new location you can spawn to a mono right away. 4 weeks should be plenty of time for a tub to colonise and push out at least one flush.

This was basically my plan. Since I'm new forgive me but are you talking about one of those spawn bags or a glass sterilized container with growth media?

What are you trying to accomplish with all this yield wise? if you want enough to just trip a few times look into invitro pp5's they are plastic so they should travel well easy,discreet ifyour looking for a few ounces then listen to muda and look into grains and spawn a monotub heres a few links franks 12 steps to shrooms http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/19792837/fpart/1
and heres a link to the invitro pp5's http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/21390984 keep in mind you will need a pressure cooker to do grains if that's the route you choose

A guy was recently taking sclerotia after only maybe a month. I think his jar was contaminated so he harvested early. He took more than usual presuming they would be weak, but he got a proper dose.

So you do not have to wait 6month, some harvest after 3 or 4. At 6 they should be definitely grown out. Harvesting after 4-6weeks is certainly not optimal as you would have got a lot more if you waited, but if you are really stuck its OK, grains are cheap.

If you are going out of town you do not need to worry about scerlotia jars. There is pretty much zero maintenance on them.

I think OP is confused, OP talks of cubensis (I think) while we recommend sclerotia.

if you give the mushrooms a time limit they dont wanna play along IME, if you just let them do their thing in peace and quiet they'll be very happy.

Yeah talking about cubensis only guys. Just ordered spores from one of the board sponsors. Escondido strain because used to live there long time ago and I thought why not for the irony.

Thank you man in vitro pp5 looks outstanding, I can hide the plastic in between some blankets in my car and I should be gtg. Now to get some substrate and cleanse my jars while my spores come in. I will go ahead and boil them but does anyone know why 90 percent isopropyl alcohol isn't used instead? Also is it easy to get this brown rice flour or will I have to buy it online in your opinion?

hey guys assembling my supplies now. I have a question about pp5 invitro tech. I know it may sound stupid but are the jars sterilized filled with the verm and the brown rice flour or is that added after? I've already got organic BRF and going to go looking for the quart containers and verm today. Wish me luck!

You add the substrate then sterilize the jars.  The jars are only there to keep the sterile substrate from becoming contaminated, so gotta get the substrate in first.

Basically I going to follow pp5 invitro's tech as close as I can. My spores should be here in a few days so just going to work on getting the verm and making and sterilizing my substrate. I'm going to make 4-5 "jars" and let them sit for 2-3 weeks for full colonization. After I moved on around the 20th next month if I'm at 100 percent then give them just a tad of air and let them grow fruit:) As for the move just thinking of getting a cooler and a warm blanket/icepacks so I can control temps. Since in this tech I don't have to ever move the shrooms from their starting container I'm hoping I'll be fine. If i'm successful get a scale and dry them out for study. Going to start studying at one dry gram. Swim remembers jumping in his teens to a full batch of ayahusca with no prior drug experience. The terror was unbelievable.

-Gonna need a link on what you're following.  The description doesn't tell me much about the procedure itself.  Just wanna make sure it's a well balanced tek.
-Swim doesn't work, and nobody here does it.  There are way bigger fish to fry and that never holds up in court anyway. :shrug:  We all talk about pounds of fruits and nobody bats an eye.  Just don't mention doing anything shady with your mushrooms and you'll be fine.
-The only terror is that which is born of yourself.

I think a big problem back then is I didn't start low and DMT is pretty strong for someone who never did anything before. It really helped me mentally in a tough phase in my life but it was pretty scary at the time.

Man I see absolutely no reason this won't work, my main concern would be the legal side. Nothing a cop loves more than a good shake down, especially if you'll be on the road a lot and what he/she may or may not see through your windows.

Good luck though would love if you chucked photos up eventually.

I've moved entire bulk grows from one house to another because of the fires in eastern washington last year and the year before.

35 days is enough to fruit an entire PF grow and certainly long enough to colonize jars that you can spawn in your next relocation.

So if you do PF TEK, I would. I would just go for it in one shot.

If you're going to spawn grain jars into a bulk substrate I would get the jars colonized and then spawn / pasteurize your substrate after the next move.

But basically, a grow can be moved in a car anytime.

take the lid off and put them in a mono style tub? :shrug: look at how pasty and muda amongst others do mudabottles.
or just crack the lid open so it doesnt cover the entire opening of the jar.
mushrooms need fresh air and they wont get enough through the threads of a lid :super:

elastic; I think he wants to grow in his car.. if I'm not mistaken.
But I agree he could time it so he can fruit while he's home and have jars colonizing while he's gone!

I still think sclerotia is a no brainer. No misting or decent FAE needed. No multiple harvesting and checking maturity at 12 or 24hr intervals. Very little worries at all.

Though possibly beneficial, no light is even needed. If they fall over or get rattled about there will be little or no disruption. They look innocuous and could be further disguised with a little thought.

Hey guys, I work nights so I went to bed and by the time I woke up the thread had blown up! First I want to say thank you, all of your experience will be so so helpful and I'm just glad your all here because I am pretty nervous for my first grow. To clear things up, I only want to transport the shrooms not grow them in a car. Until November I'll probably be driving around 300 miles and 1-2 days max. So just wanted to clear that up. I got all of my supplies this morning sans spores and will be uploading pics and the like as I can. I'm certainly not saying that my profession or current life is perfect, but I think I can give our little friends some love and attention or I wouldn't be here. Another thing I want to clear up is this isn't about just pumping out a few grams for a quick trip. This is a journey for me that will hopefully help me progress though my life. Over the last few months I've been trying to change some things in my life that I don't like such as my diet. It horrible to realize how poisonous most food is in the usa. What's worst is to realize maybe you eat often to deal with emotional issues or stress you might be feeling that day. So anyway back on point guys I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I do and again thank you all for being on board.

Just recieved my spores today. Got my setup ready all heat sterz. done. was about to inoculate and got cold feet. I seriously don't want to get in major troble over this. Trying to look at laws of my state, (iowa) I can't see what the cutoffs are for this to become a major thing. I'm really conflicted on what I should do. Any advice from people like me?

It's a major thing.  You will probably get in some serious trouble if you get caught.

Don't Tell anyone. Don't take pictures. Sign up for a cheap VPN To connect to shroomery through. Don't give them to your regular weed dealer. Try to stick with people you have no affiliation with, preferably in another county. It will probably take you a year or two to meet someone not suspect and not associated with you directly.

Don't plan on getting rich selling cubensis. It never works out like you think it's going to and no one ever wants to pay what you want for the quantity you want to sell.

An invitro or small combination container/miniFC would be ideal for someone moving a lot who wants a small, discrete setup.  Use PF substrate.  I really like pint plastic containers screwtops, and have grown 1cup PF subs in them invitro without issue.  Check dollartree.

I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

* That should be 'Don't Show off pictures to your friends by sending them through text messages and email'  Sorry if that was confusing.
* If you're posting pictures of grows in your home you should be using a VPN if there are identifying features of your place in the pictures.
* Reread that, I wrote different COUNTY. You don't have any friends 20 miles away in a different city / county?
* You don't need to look hard, you just need to wait and be patient.
* I'm pretty sure I said 'Don't plan on getting rich selling cubensis' which is pretty much me saying there is no benefit to selling cubensis mushrooms. Not really making the argument for selling there.

I plan on posting pics actually already took some of my prep work. Just can't figure out how to attach photos here from a local source do you have to upload them to a website first Then give the link? Main thing I will need when this is done is a sitter I remember ayahuasca without and I feel that was a mistake. Hopefully someone from the forum will be able to talk to me via voip. I don't trust anyone in the town I'm in and feel telling anyone around here would be foolish. Also if the grow is successful I worry about dosage. I weight about 230 pounds. Do you guys think 2 grams dry is good to start with?

Yes already did. Did 2 Batches since all 4 containers wouldn't fit.about 80 mins a piece in boiling water. I got a 10 ml syringe so put 2.5 ml of p.cubensis "Escondido" into each trying to aim for the 4 corners so I could see growth.

Nope:( one part that I'm ashamed of. I used a closet where there was the least air movement possible but no sab. I took a shower and have fresh clothes and washed my hands well but I expect to lose 1-2 at least to contamination. The worst part is every night at work I have a fume hood but taking these in to work would be crazy.

:facepalm:

If you only lost 1 or 2 from doing that, it'd be a miracle.  Sorry but... you might wanna get something else started rather than trust in those.  If shame were the worst to come of it that'd be fine but nobody likes wasting time. :shrug:

The proper still air box design and procedure is absolutely necessary for inoculating containers like those, at least without a SHIP.

It's no problem I've got plenty of substrate left. I can just empty them out and start again if things go bad. How long appoximately will the mycelium take to be noticeable? I can order more spores and see of I get lucky with these.

I'm a scientist and so I really prefer to do things in a sterile and controlled manner however if the spores really couldn't compete with several air spores of other species how would they compete in nature? This intrigues me. Glad to know there is some hope.

they don't compete in nature, they take what they can get which is why our results indoors are so much better, a wild fruit is full of contams

Because you're not expecting them to race other contams on free, sterilized, extremely nutritious food.

Nothing outside is ever sterilized and they have to have formed somewhat of a decent sized colony in order to not be in constant threat of getting wiped out.

Doing PF tek, in the classic sense, in open air, can actually be done, but not if you cracked the lid and injected that way.  Violet's tek requires the SAB, assuming that's what that is.

"For very beginners, a short squirt from a clean spore syringe can be squirted by lifting the edge of the lid and squirting spores in thru the gap.
This is best done in a still-air box, but has a good chance of success in any still-air condition away from carpets and rugs, or immediately after (even during) a rain outside."
Here's a piece of his tek where he talks about this. Don't be fooled I've worked with a fume hood and agar for my job daily,I understand there was some inherent risk in even a few seconds of air. Blood and other very potent agars I've noticed have about 25%-50% chance of development of containmention from the same air exposure. Although not exactly the same I think perhaps some basic premise may be applied here. Perhaps I am over hopeful and will have to try again.

First off, wiki sucks....

Secondly, that is wrong.....a laminar flow hood pushes out a sterile air flow across what you are working on....

A fume hood is made to suck up fumes, which means dirty air is being sucked right past what u are working on to get to the filter....

Now that U know the "exact specific" term/definition, instead of a "general but non-specific" term for both, you can come to your own conclusion on which one is best suited for this hobby.

I understand what your saying. What I'm trying to articulate is this paticular device is used to insure sterile conditions for subculturing on agar. It is sterilized both chemically with alcohol everyday as well as with a uv blacklight for 1 hour. It has air filtration as well as a negative pressure environment therefore any free spores would simply be sucked away from your workspace. Unless you are working in a biochemistry lab or at the cdc or have a budget of over 100,000 dollars I think it's better then what 99% of private homes would have.

soooo…when u do work, do u feel a breeze blowing out from the HEPA, or do u feel shit sucking in?  its really different dude.  u would need a HEPA filtered room to use what ur suggesting, but even then, it makes more sense to blow out, not suck in.

I have a 99-100% success rate using a $30 SAB....define "better"....you could have done the same thing with the same success rate(if not better) with a LFH, and not a fume hood.....

If I had a LFH my success rate would be the same....maybe a few less  contaminated dishes, but when I get a contaminated plate it's usually from laziness in my sterile technique anyways....

It's all a mute point I didn't use this anyway. Lol I don't know what the whole discussion was even about.In reality I suppose Im just questioning the true effectiveness of a 30 dollar sab, I have a strong feeling a quick inoculation in virtually any room without much airflow will have the same chance of success. However I could easily be wrong...

open air is risky at best.
u can fuck with ports and shit.  but ports can fail over time and in full.
best to stick with what mushroom growers have used forever….good sterile technique, be it a hood or SAB.  even McKenna's MMGG requires an SAB, and that shit is older than stamets teenage cum rags

I'm not saying that it's not effective I'm just questioning how effective Given the crude methods employed. The reason I didn't use the hood is because it's at my workplace. Again I feel this is simply much too risky. The strange thing is I'm getting all of this negative feedback over what I admitted was a terrible part of the tek. However if you read the tek it clearly states that there is a "good" chance of success either way. Let's just assume good is 50 percent. Now with 4 jars that's fairly decent that at least one will grow. Again this is my very first time ever doing this if it fails the only one to blame is myself. However I've still had fun either way and I can always try again.

The SAB is a lot more useful than just being in a closet.  Using proper procedure you would be spraying the walls of the SAB with water, soapy or plain, putting all your stuff inside, and then waiting at least 30 minutes with all sources of moving air shut off for all the air to become still enough that everything will stick to the water droplets and a large amount of the air in the box will be more or less sterile, as well as still.


http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20048771#20048771

I highly recommend this design and size in particular.

I made mine a little weird by adding some extra arm-shield to it with ducting, but it's otherwise the same.



I do use the towel as well, I just snapped that right after I finished it up.  It's worked pretty damn well for about a year.  Any failures can be attributed to me rushing or putting my hands over my work.

We're talking stuff that's open for about 3-4 seconds at a time, with no contams, it's reliable.

u should have fun.
u should always try again.

but the important point here is to understand the difference, and how it applies to what we do as mushroom growers.  taking ambient air, jamming into a smallish box to with exhaust (the HEPA with high SP) LESS than incoming blower power, is a positive pressure box, not negative pressure.  this positive pressure, is then forced out (evenly if u build hood correctly) thru HEPA filter, blowing towards u, preferably at at least 150FPM per minute.  anything on ur shit is blown towards u, the rest of the room is (for all intents and purposes with a good hood) irrelevant.  good.  if it was opposite, anything weird behind u can be sucked into ur area.  u don't want that.

I have no doubt it is. I'm actually almost in tears laughing at this whole situation.
everyone here seems really nice and quiet bright but this defense of a plastic box with holes cut into it is almost too much.
think right how big is a spore? Maybe 1-10 micrometers? So when you insert yours hands into this contraption is ther no space between yours hands and the box? Did you not just push air into it by inserting your hands? it's my opinion your real protection Is not the box but the 3-4 secs. Let's say for instance in that time 1-10 spores from the ambient air float in. So one container gets 1, one gets 7, one gets 4, one gets 10. Now how many spores from this spore syringe are there? Probably tens or hundreds of thousands. So the chances seem decent to me at least one container will be ok provided the media and spores were gtg.

ur concern is valid, but the results are not congruent with that concern.

we can talk science all day.  results matter more though.

i agree.  im saying what some people fear as far as SAB's go makes sense.  but then, when u use one correctly, those concerns go out the window.

If you think you're better than a plastic box with holes in it, there's the real problem.

Mine is just a cheap ass 56qt sterilite.  I drilled a bunch of small holes in a circle for the arms, then cut it out with a sharp boning knife at an extreme angle.  Accomplished a lot with that POS.


--------------------


I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister.  I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave.  I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent.
Triggered yet?

Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."


No, this does not look right...

I don't think I'm better than a plastic box. I think open Air is definitely worse. But by how much? That's the point I am trying to make. I'm excited to see what happens, either way I think I'm upsetting people by talking bad about the SAB. Either way hope you guys are in for the ride.:smile:

do what u want man, do what works for you.
but…we grow booms indoors.  sterile technique can get u far.  its easier to have sterile technique in SAB, ESPECIALLY g2g.

if open air works for you, ok cool.  i will wonder how it works for u in 5 years.  and if it still works, i will wonder what kind of set up u run, and how often u run it.

It's not like we're all broke lazy assholes who are using a plastic box because we have to, it's really the only way to do certain types of work.  By what margin is it better than open air?  If tagyo is in here maybe he'll bust out his open air agar pics.  It's an infinitely better scenario.

Hey guys. Small update. One or two of the jars now have a very fine white film look to the outer edges. One especially. I'm not sure yet if this is just broken down brown rice flower but I think not. No signs of contaminated jars yet. Again this look is pure white but it's very faint. Hopefully in a few days it'll be enough for pics. I have my jars at 70 degrees in a semi dark room is this ok?

Hey guys, a little bit of an update.
all jars between 50 and 75% colonization.
will have to post some pics up.All and all things have gone really well I gotta pack up and move in about a week and at this rate I'd say 2 weeks or so til 100 percent. I don't want to open the jars
fearing contamination might occur. But from looking on the outside the top is starting to become covered and the sides are almost completely covered. I do need some advice though a source I've used for other things in the past gifted me 2 grams cracker dry shrooms. Literally it was the weirdest thing I was looking for other products and he sent them to me free saying it was his part in bettering the world. I'm conflicted on what to do now should I wait for my shrooms or try these. I'll have to post pics tommorow guys and get your feedback on if they look ok. I feel skeptical but this guy has a great rep on grams so I'm not sure what to do?

A great rep on grams. :lol:  That's quite a rep to have.
Don't get many people asking what to do with dried mushrooms.  Eat them or don't?  :shrug:  They could be good, the ones you're growing could be better, no way to know.  Do you.. not want the mushrooms?

ok decided to go for it coming up tonight. Going to not eat after bk and fast until dinner then down them. should i eat the whole 2 grams? Thinking of doing lemon tek because of the supposed shorter wait time til coming up.  And by the way I didn't get fed up and just bought them seriously I shit you not they were sent to me for free. anyway got to post up some pics of my jars but this works out pretty well because I don't have work for 5 days so I can not worry about that. if anyone will be on tonight send me a skype or teamspeak ect in pm. I'm kinda scared tipping alone but having a trip sitter isn't really an option with my work.

With such a small amount. I would Lemmon tek them. Don't be nervous about tripping alone. You are taking a low dose. I have never had a trip sitter on any of my hundreds of trips. Shrooms can't hurt you unless you let them.

Being nervous is setting yourself up for more being nervous.  Just get over it now so you don't have to flip out on mushrooms.  It's totally weird but you'll be fine, just be careful about leaving the house.
