Let me start by saying I tried to post this in the beginner forum but it says I don't have permission to start a new post. That's the only reason I'm posting here. I watched the four videos on YouTube titled let's grow mushrooms pf tek. I'm confident to start there like advised on these boards. My questions are can I grow any strain with this method. For no particular reason I want to grow golden teacher ( I like the name ) . 2 will using this method have a draw back on potency. I would grow differently if I had too if that would mean better potency. 3 I actually have never tripped on shrooms before. Is there a beginner strain I should consider for growing or eating. The only thing I tripped on to date is salvia. And I'm hopeing the shrooms will be more enjoyable. The salvia was too insane to enjoy. I mean really insane. No one can possibly enjoy the way I felt lol. 4 my last ? Is will the pf tek method produce enough just for 1 possibly 2 people to trip twice a month. I probably will have a low tolerance but I still want to get a good stash to dry and keep for myself. Any responses will be greatly appreciated

1.Yes, GT is fine. 2.No, potency is genetic. Different grow methods generally just produce more or less, or provide healthier fruits. Healthy doesn't necessarily mean potent though, nor does unhealthy mean not potent. It all comes out in the yield really. 3. All cubes give the same basic trip, some are stronger than others. Again, GT is fine. It's nothing like Salvia. Salvia rips your world apart if you let it, mushrooms are so far from that it's not even comparable. 4. I think so yes. The PF tek can provide as much as you want, just make more cakes. A SGFC works a lot better when it's full of cakes than it does when it's only got a few.

Pf tek is a fine place to start and any cubes for the most part, but especially golden teachers are a great strain to start with. My understanding is that GT are especially hardy.
As far as how much the pf tek can produce that depends on how many cakes you start with and your abilities to maintain the ideal temps, humidity, FAE, etc. From what I have seen there are many experienced growers that use the pf tek with great yield... However, Are you planning on starting with a spore print, spore syringe, agar wedge, or liquid culture? How much of will you be using?
Salvia is crap. Hahaha. I pissed some people off by saying that but it is in comparison to shroomies. Better get reading man! Best of luck.

I'm gonna assume spore syringe, and if that's the case, I can only recommend to follow RR's version of PF tek to the T. If you want to constantly grow you'll need to start a new batch of jars once your first set is fully colonized, but before the consolidation period of 1 week before birthing. They'll be ready to birth about the time the old ones die off.

You can order a few at a time, just keep whatever you don't use in the fridge...SGFC is a shot gun fruiting chamber, named because of the numerous holes drilled into it http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/20195542 ... it is the go-to fruiting chamber for cakes.check out the sponsors forum to decide whom you would like to order from.
