That's ridiculous though. "hope for the best". That's what I did when I realized I had fucked up somewhere while doing the teks on this site. The difference is I spent less than half of what an equal kit would've cost me, and if it did fuck up, I had at least a dozen more tries just on the materials from that first purchase, over what the kits offer. Which amounts to "fuck it up and spend a another few hundred dollars". Kit you have one chance to get it right. Do your research, pay less and you have plenty of chances.
You can keep acting like you're an expert on this stuff, but I don't buy it. Anyone who really knew what they were doing would of already known all of this, and no one is really going to just throw away hundreds of dollars they don't have to. Kit posts show up here often and 100% of the time, it's by someone who was never a member here before purchasing it. It's a bunch of people who never bothered to do any research and figure out just how hard you're getting fucked over it. A good 75% of those kit posts are "Help I think I have contamination, what do I do?". I'm not even sure I believe that this friend is involved. Seems more likely you're just trying to save face.
I get it, I do. We've all been ripped off from time to time because we didn't bother to do even 1 minute of research on something before buying it. It sucks having to admit to everyone and yourself you got hosed. Your pride is going to keep trying to find a way to defend it.
Seriously, just cancel it and do even just a couple hours of reading on the bulk or pf teks on this site. They ALL will give you a shopping list, it may not be in list form, but every single thing you need will be listed throughout the post. You don't even have 20 posts yet. You can just cancel it, read, order the shit yourself and make a new account and no one will be the wiser. I highly suggest doing just that.

Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

it would be 10x easier to buy some spawn bags and set up like 5 trays,case them, go to lowes, get the shit for a small greenhouse and youre saving youself a lot of extra steps. hes saying itll get contaminated because you don't know what youre doing(you wouldn't let your friend buy this if you had enough info on the topics) I would personally say to do monotubs instead(much easier than a greenhouse) and for the size of that one its not even worth the money

ive only been on this forum for 3 months but I think ive read years worth of stuff on here, i read shit on here hours every day. and im constantly running into stuff I don't know. I started with BRF jars made 2 monotubs, now im working with agar, LC's and grain and have another 4 monos running on top of the first two. I was going to start with a kit too but started doing my research and its pretty cheap to grow lots of shrooms. just gotta get the right info

This is almost definitely what is going to happen. I'm not gonna keep carrying on with this shit all night. I'm trying to help and if doesn't want to take it, I can't make him. If he's okay with screwing himself and his friend over, then so be it. When his friends 500 dollars amounts to nothing, it's not going to be fun.
Last thing I will say about it. When your stuff isn't colonizing right (or at all) is producing low yields or is contaminated, don't come asking for help on how to fix it. Because no one can. Grow with a kit and without knowing what you're doing and you're guaranteed to get at least 1 of them. Literally every single person is going to tell you to follow the teks on the site. No one has any idea what is in those kits. Without knowing for sure you're getting the right mix of stuff, there's really no other diagnostic work to be done.

That's the problem with starting with bags. They dry up super fast if improperly prepared. If your bag is stalled, I'm not sure if it can be saved. Now...if you had a jar, your problem might be that you just need to flip the cake over. Some people say you shouldn't flip the cake, but I have without problems.
The other posters are right. You'd have been better off spending $50 at the store for some jars, verm, brown rice to grind into flour, a clear plastic tub, and a brick of coir.
BTW - This really belongs in Cult.
