You’ve never run PE camera??


If you have an instant pot use that. I hated casing and manure cuz I had to sit and monitor the temp for hours until somebody pointed out the keep warm button is auto pasteurization. Now I just load up a bag or jars and run it over night.


I agree with faht though, I was super nervous about it until I used the thermometer a couple times. Definitely worth the peace of mind while you wait.

Well I did some weird deli cup thing December 2019



but I didn't get anything but a blob lol

No insta for me, and idk if I have the $$ to spend on one for cult atm.
I really only need enough jiffy pasteurized to case like 10 or so shoeboxes, pry load up a filter patch with 12(?) quarts of jiffy and proceed with the Franks method and my digy thermometer I bought awhile ago for this

Right on. That’s gonna be a good haul of pe.


Before the instant pot I was doing jars in a pot of water on the stove with the thermometer. Definitely solid method.

I checked my instant pot with the warm function and it got closer to 170ish (been a minute since I checked)

Still my primary pasteruizer and I ain't gonna change it unless the lady stabs me from getting the instant pot dirty.

Hey Cam. I ain't nobody yet, but I honestly have found coir/verm easier and more successful on PE than pasteurized jiffy so far. Depending on how many shoe boxes you have, I would give cv a chance on some for comparison.

I pasteurized using quart jars in an Instant Pot, too. That really is a sweet way to go if it turns out that you will be doing a lot of it down the road. Plus you can make some great dinners in it. Who knew?

I haven't used sand yet, but am about to start for Tamps.

I confess that I've been thinking about agar all week. It's consumed my thoughts. I dream in nutes and petris.

Tomorrow I'm going to do like 100 plates. Different recipes, different dishes, different nute levels, fucking everything. I'm officially addicted to agar and I can't wait :mushroom2::mushroom2::awesomenod:

Same as Oats. Just bring to a boil in the PC and latch the lid until it locks. THen kill the heat until it unlocks and drain and spread out on a screen or sheet and let dry.

Then go for it. These might be slightly bacterial, it is hard to say with BOSS cause the higher fat content.

I confess that I'm closer to finishing up my mush-room. Should be back to growing in a few weeks. My lagm master jars need to go to grain badly. They've been colonized for about a month.

You can always convince yourself that you are waiting for plate pins to clone.

I confess I do this quite often... it hasn't failed me yet either... it could just be luck but anything I run from plate pin clones have been awesome....

Edit: its also great for doing crosses... ive let more that a few cross attempt plates go for about 6 weeks and take the plate pins that have some characteristics im looking for... im about to fruit the first of these in the next week or so...

I confess I've been gone for about a month and a half from here and I missed the fuck out of this place. I just took a long break from anything besides real life, Haven't been playing any video games or been on the computer much except to check emails.

I kept wanting to come back to read and talk but just couldn't bring myself to. Life is weird. Been making lots of progress in my mushcult still! I finally got my PE coming along and took about 20 clones to work with. (Slacked on my LAGM since I started PE for LAGM but i'll fix it up eventually lol)

I can't wait to finally get a good chance to try these suckers, I've been hearing about PE forever and now I have my own. Feelsgoodman. Feels good to be back on here to.

I confess that instead of eating mushrooms i cut my hair off. Lost 16" of hair over the weekend. Also i confess that literally no one had noticed.

My third confession is that I'm not sure if I'm falling off the wagon or not as I've been drinking the last few nights. I've done this before and i haven't been totally abstaining from alcohol for the last few years, but it hasn't been 4 days in a row like it is now.

I've done some fucked up shit in my life, just as we all have, but the shit eats at me and I'm in a constant state of dread and abhorrence, knowing i have to tolerate this bullshit for the rest of my time on this planet. I wanted to use mushrooms as a tool to help rid me of this ever-present state of mind, but 5g of APE showed me that wasn't possible without the work. 6 months after that i died from suicide and watched the fallout as my wife and son while on 2g of natalensis. After that, i felt content and at least accepting of my own faults and mistakes for a solid month and I've been dying to get back to that place for the last 2 months.

I knew that i wasn't gonna be able to have an experience like that one natalensis trip i wrote about without getting some this deep rooted shit that's constantly cycling through my mind onto paper. For whatever reason that helps me prep for a trip, especially one intended to be life changing. I ran from my problems like a little bitch for the weekend with the intention of writing all this shit down and tripping with my brother who also happens to be my favorite person to trip with.

I drank and smoked weed with every intention to open whatever valves that held these thoughts back free. Instead of getting the bullshit down on paper it stayed in my head and continues to live there. I never ate mushrooms. Nor did i write anything of any significance. But i did learn that briefly escaping the torment just to return slightly changed isn't enough to keep one's sanity.

Sorry to post a wall and thanks for reading it. And cheers, i guess.

I can definitely relate to that--sorry to hear that dude. The idea that "briefly escaping the torment just to return slightly changed isn't enough to keep one's sanity" is certainly a difficult realization to reckon with.

While I'm always glad to hear about how people have turned their lives around completely through psychedelic experiences, I've never fully understood it. In all my trips, psychs have always made me turn a reflective eye towards myself and the people in my life but I've always returned from those journeys only slightly touched, never transformed. Maybe I need to push myself further, but I also have started to think that I can't simply rely on an eye opening experience to wholly change my relationship to my past, my character, and myself. Sometimes though it's hard to know what one can even do in the face of certain darkness, guilt, shame, and alienation. Getting older it seems more and more that life is tragic and demeaning and it's hard to know what to do with that feeling.

Anyways, hope you can get some of your feelings out, whether on paper or to someone you trust. And if you do eat those mushrooms, have a good trip.
