Hello,I'm a newbie here! So I went to my nearest thrift shop and found an aquarium with equipment being sold at 25$. For 25$ I've manage to acquire:
2x Aquarium heater 1X Air Pump 1X Water dis-placer 1X Light fixture and a cool white long fluorescent light. 1X Big aquarium tank.
The thing was hell of heavy.

Nice man. I have to say that you'll be disappointed to know that you'd be much better off buying a cheap plastic tub for like $5 and using the Shotgun Tek if you're planning on growing mushrooms....If you're getting fish though CONGRATULATIONS MAN! That's a damn good price for an aquarium  Shotgun Terrarium

Using an aquarium for growing is really outdated info. I'd read up on some stuff in Mush Cult.

yeah great price no doubt.
Monotubs are sweet too if you don't want to do the work involved in building an SGFC

I've been saying it for the last year or so, this site needs a serious cleanse of old info. They can keep it in archives, but not where noobs can easily find it.
I started out with last decades info, and so are scads of noobs. Which is just so sad when all the info is right here on the site.

Though that weeds out the ignorant people who take everything they read as law and makes it a true hobby and challange not a recipe. It is nice that it has been clearly and easily instructed for the masses to grow mushrooms but are we sure we want every tom and dick to be growing. At the very least the outdated information may cause a kid living at his parents house to fail miserably and therefore his parents won't lose their house... When I first started I read through lots and lots of threads and realized on my own what to and what not to do. It takes a bit of work but its that work that makes it more fun and more of a skill than a recipe. The people who order grow kits are the ones that are unable to syphon though the new and old...just let them be IMHO
Just a thought. It would be nice to have a overhaul of outdated info but you can also just put a note that threads before this date-xxxx may be irrelevant and from here forward everything in mush-cult should be reviewed by mods and edited or notated to be incorrect

True. I've never grown mushrooms in my life but even I knew this was a bad idea just from constantly reading and re-reading through forums before I even had an account on here.

Come on people, he's in a very positive mood. Have you forgotten the time you just started? It was exciting, regardless of being right or wrong.
Op: watch some Roger Rabbit videos (not the toon, the grower), then read up on either shotgun fruiting chamber (SGFC) or monotub. You probably don't need incubation...
Love, Hanz.

I did Only made an account on here originally to ask a question about the tek I was using for a DMT extraction. Before that I was reading constantly about mushroom cultivation and looking for an easy beginner tek for DMT. I was basically a shroomery stalker I guess

I know man, it's cool, all I was saying was: you're not a noob now, even though you never grew shrooms. You did all that reading! But once, once we were all noobs. Hell, I'm a noob right now, if it's just about growing.
I say, let the OP feel good about his fish tank, it's wonderful.

It is a beautiful fish tank. You should mix some mushrooms with their fish food and see what happens.

I ended up going the PMP route after the SGFC method wasn't working out for me. I had to keep all my stuff in a closet that had no airflow, and even fanning/misting more often than normal didn't really help. Been too long to remember what all the issue was, but I remember after trying the SGFC for awhile and trying to get it to work out, I ended up finding the PMP somewhere here and decided to give that a shot and it did well.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. 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
