Confession#1 every damn time I do agar my Sab puts a drop of soapy water on at least one plate.
#2 I still have a jar going from one of my first successful knock up doing spores to grain 1 and 1/2 years ago like a noob shouldnt, couple weeks ago G2G it for shits and giggles. Spawned to a mono and still pulled 2 1/2 oz dry off it first flush. Agar has showed me the ways of cloning for a canopy, I can say that much.

Sorry about your buddy man it sux losing someone especially in that cituation i kinda had the same issue had a friend for maybe 8 or 9 years and before i went to prison we kinda had a falling out over some dumb shit well when i got out he went in ...
I was leaving walmart and my chick said someone was creepin up on me so i turned and it was him we talked a little and exchanged phone numbers well i knew he was smoking the gfunk and kinda didnt want to chill with him at all ....
Anyway about 4 months goes by and im watching the news and there is a big police chase i mean flipped car the dude jackrd 3 other cars in the process and eventually the cops blocked him in and shof him .
My cousin in cali called me like dude did you hear that shit about gabe im like no he said dude the cops just killed him like 2 hoyrs ago ....
He said he jackrd some dude at gunpoint at a mall here and took his car well he was seen by someone a week later driving it then went on tbe chase ...
I felt horrible thinking if i would have callrd him and chilled maybr i vould havr helped him but in reality it would of happened either way

im still a shroom noob so my confession is pretty weak, but here goes.
i have a clear 100qt tote with a white lid. i flipped it upside down with the lid on. i used a torch to heat up the rim of my charcoal chimney and melted two big ass 7.5" holes in it and i called it a SAB.
 
i spray the inside down heavily with lysol and i go take a leak (or a refill, which ever is needed). i come back and spray (with a sprayer) all the inside surfaces with ISO. i put on gloves and a cheap 'procedure mask'. ISO my hands and arms......
anyway, not to make a long story any longer cuz this aint no tek, i am 100% confident, even as a noob, making clean agar pours. even tho i've only done 80 plates. i did 40 at a time, twice. 100% confident flaming a scalpel (xacto) and doing tranfers. i've used up 60 of those plates so far. confident enuf that i went to fleabay and ordered a case of 500 dishes that i just got the other day.
confession is this tho. even tho i've only spawned one full size mono and a dozen smaller (12 and 6 quart) tubs. i dont have the slightest clue what to do to reduce side pins and bottom pins.
if i read "Maximize surface conditions and make a level surface" or "The sides pin up when the surface conditions suck" or "When conditions are less suitable on top....." or "ensure the surface has better pinning conditions than the sides" etc. ONE MORE TIME im gonna shit myself and sit in my dirty poopy pants all day for being a bad boy.
my next guess is that my subs have been slightly too wet overall, and i know pics and what not to get help, but im stubborn to the point of possibly being slightly retarded trying to figure it out on my own.
i see so many people posting about struggling with 'sterile work' or 'pour agar' and i feel good with what im doing there. but i have to confess that i dont have the slightest idea yet on how to optimize the six sides of a dirt box that has a fungus in it.
my next goal is to provide shitty side conditions and see where that gets me.
im still too new for a contest and its not a dream anyway. but ill submit this. now that im messing around with these grains, shrooms, jars, dishes, and what not.... I SWEAR TO (insert your preferred deity here) THAT I SMELL SHROOMS EVERYWHERE, the dirty ass factory i work in, the grocery store, or any store for that matter, walking from my car to my door, the most random places. I SWEAR that i get a whiff of that smell and i pause and look around trying to not look like the slightly retarded stubborn person i am.

I use the stove to flame my knife and have my Sab right next to the stove on the counter. Well I got to close to the flame and lit one iso soaked arm on fire. Go to put it out and with my other iso soaked arm and ran around the kitchen flipping out. Smelled like burnt hair the rest of that night.

I apply for both dream contest. Last time I trip and took night meds. My whole night of sleep was me talking to mushrooms that happen to be Nazis with death camps killing other molds and using there body's for food and the master mushroom race. The dream right after I kill mushroom Hitler parents.
My personal dream is to start a mushroom cult. Build huge amounts of followers then move to Brazil and own like 100 square miles of land to build a mushroom factory and compound which isn't illegal there. Grows 1 million lbs of dry pans or 2 million lbs if cubes a year. Be super rich and buy top reman noodles and the other ones and replace all seasoning packets contents with Shrooms dust. Then die of heart attack in one of the nighty orgys

Use a double liner. Spray your tub with water and the first liner will stick to the tub walls. Second stick to the substrate. Substrate shrinks with second liner stuck to sub, first liner forever stays to the tub.
Never had issues with it.

I used to have a recurring nightmare in which I would be in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight, standing on a tiny ledge of concrete that came just above the water. I look down at the water to see a killer whale approaching the surface with frightening speed. I know I am about to die, then I wake up. Glad I don't have that one anymore!

When I pick up my son from school during a rainy day, all the parents waiting at the gates to go in, almost all having an umbrella, looks just like a full canopy. And then the gates open and they all start moving. Always reminds me of watching shrooms while tripping, all wavy n shit :p

Once I went out on a long pier over the ocean after taking 3 hits of lsd. There was tons of white caps rolling in over the black water of night. Made for some spectacular visuals. It was almost like a dream.

Confession: I actually forgot to check on my shroomy brood last night... (very odd, as normally I check a couple of times before hitting the sack). I hope they are still warm and enjoying good RH... I think this morning is time to harvest some PE
