Is this good for an absolute shroom beginner?
    #2299930 - 02/04/04 08:34 AM (20 years, 1 month ago)

So I'm thinking about starting to grow shrooms.

http://www.everyonedoesit.com/acatalog/EveryoneDoesIT_com_Magic_Mushroom_Growing_Kits_496.html

Magic Mushroom GROWING KIT - Psilocybe Cubensis

Is this a good idea or not? Will I really get shrooms in "days" and is it worth it? Good for a beginner?

You could always get the B+ those are on there also. Have you tried looking into geting a syringe from one of our sponors and just doing jars instead?

if your an absolute beginner, no knowledge, i aint gonna lie to ya.....its NOT a good idea. You cant rely on the instructions they will send you, because they are going to suck, trust me.

my advice to you, if you want to start growing shrooms is to start with the PF tek[ http://www.fungifun.org/pf/pf_en.htm ], and if you dont want to do that and decide fuck what we say and go with the kit....then please read the FAQ on casings, so you know how to PROPERLY maintain the kit. This way you can get the most out of the kit, and dont waste 25 bucks.

You wont get it in days... expect 3 weeks for complete conlonization, 2 weeks for pinning, and another week or two for shrooms to be read to harvest. I started growing before christmas and just tripped my first dose last night.

yah dude, dont let those assholes screw you over like they did me, giving you instructions way too complicated for a first timer. just read some faqs, and start with PF or a simple casing technique, though most would tell you to start with PF due to its relative simplicity and its extensive documentation over the years

I belive these kits are already colonized when they get to their destination. I belive you just have to wait for pinning. But of course not days, maybe three weeks total for first flush.

A head shop in my area has shroom kits with already colonized substrate, what looks to be popcorn.....

After my first BRF cake grow, I was thinking of picking one up and skipping a lot steps instead...

But I realized how much fun and excitement I had with my first grow, and to skip a lot of the learning process would just suck a lot of the fun out of getting into this hobby....

Speaking as a beginner, I'd say just have fun reading the basic teks, and learn that way...

not sure about weeks there mate, im a beginner and my shrooms are about 2cm tall in approx 6 days, and everyonedoesit.com comes with sod all instructions too. There is also no mycelium colonisations at all on the kits, cant remember who said it, but there isnt.

I think i might have been the one that got them out of stock, sorry  :biggrin:

I also suggest just doing the PF-tek instead of using a kit. Its great for begginers. Use this website as your guide http://www.fungifun.org/pf/pf_en.htm#materialien. Good luck, all your questions can be answered on the shroomery just post. Peace.
