I think substrate depth is question of biblical proportions over here. There are many tcs who do different things. But I think for inexperienced people a thicker substrate would be better as it can hold moisture better and regulate it's microclimate better. But I have actually had more succes with thinner ones like 3-4".
I have a question on a similar note. How do you guys battle condensation in monos ? I live somewhere where it gets cold like a bitch and so the temperature fluctuates really hard. There's really nothing i can do about it without renovating my house . How do you battle this ? I always wake up to my monos dripping with from the lids. When i started growing i always thought this was because of too much water so i would make my monos super dry, thus impacting yield. Obviously during colonisation you can put them in a more or less isolated closet, but what about once it actually starts needing fresh air ? Is their some nice single room thermostat + heater combo out there that automatically maintains temperature?

Sub depth depends on what I’m trying to do. Lately I’ve been trying to get spores or clones asap so I use less coir. Colonizes super quick and puts up a good flush so I can see what I’m working with and that’s all I need.
If you’re trying to go multiple flushes and squeeze the highest yield out of it then you’ll need more water which means more coir.

Man i really love pucks for that utilisation. If you knock em up with LC, you have kind off instant potential clones and spores.

I was just harvesting a tub when I thought I saw an insect fly into it. I looked at the substrate in the general area and saw something moving. It was a fly! It wanted my mushrooms! I quickly sprang into action and ran to grab a kleenex. When I got back the fly was still there, greedily gobbling up actives. I reached into the tub with the kleenex and used it to pluck out the mischievous invader. The fly was killed in the process, never having had the time for its trip to kick in. I feel sorry for it. If only it had gone for the stubs in the trash it could have had the trip of its short life. Alas, it was not meant to be. The fly is now in the trash with the stubs, only it's not munching on them. It's dead; wrapped unceremoniously in a kleenex coffin. An otherwise beautiful morning has ended in tragic oblivion for a small insect that only wanted to trip it's little arthropod nuts off.

I go with rye spawn mixed 1:4 into an inch and a half or so of pasteurized h-poo with a thin casing layer I would like to know other growers preference and how you believe substrate depth affects your grow and how/why it affects the overall yield quality or potency of the fruits , number and size and or number of flushes ?

Wall.E said: Doctor Mario is serious about his shit being 3”. He’s like a legit scientist or some shit. I’d wait for him to chime in, don’t think I’ve ever seen a subpar grow from him, always killer flushes.
For me I play fast and loose, so I can’t give anyone real advice or info
Thanks Wall.E. That's very flattering. 3" sub depth is my go to because I havent found a culture that has needed anything more than that. I've only ran into one culture that absolutely sucked every drop of moisture out of the 3" sub and it made me wish that I had either over hydrated just a bit or went with 3.5" in an effort to squeeze a little bit more water into those mushies.

man the semilancatas were psilocybe firmetaria
and they are supposedly active, but two attempts to sample them both reported no noticeable effect
is there records of previous cultivation of psilocybe firmetaria?

By microscopy, which is prone to human error, and also vulnerable to distinguish similar species
By DNA sample he now says its psilocybe firmetaria, a species I cannot find any published documentation of cultivation of. Nor was it previously thought to exist in norway. https://www.artsdatabanken.no/Taxon/Psilocybe%20fimetaria/55293
It is said to be active, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psilocybe_fimetaria
but mine showed no bruising, a person with moderate tolerance felt nothing from 1-2 grams. ive eaten a few single fruits myself, but didnt feel anything that made me *sure
Guess I'll trade being able to fruit semis (at all) for being the first known cultivator of psilocybe firmetaria, along with being able to report its finding by a subordinate to the state species data bank

Damn man that blows. But your grows are cool for sure, and being the first to cultivate a species is an achievement in and of itself!

maybe its just bullshit that firmetaria is active, maybe this will later on lead to it being moved to deconia
Ive never heard of people hunting for this species, neither locally nor internationally, not europe or in scandinavia
so where is the credentials that its active
Psilocybe subcoprophila people know about, but its considered gross because it usually pins right outta turds. its also weak i've heard

It's something I've tried before and would try again but after being chased out of a field by a gun wielding farmer years ago I kind of lost the motivation. 
If you get verified prints and care to shoot me one I'd give it a go as getting that going would be something like the holy grail in my book.
