has anyone ever used barley? I looked it up and those who have tried it get mixed results because there isn't a good barley prep wrote up. I just brought home a bunch from work and would like to try it, just gotta experiment with water content

Most barely is pearled which makes prep very difficult and removes a fair amount of nutrition for the fungi.

Sounds like my experience last weekend. Walked by some random tent and heard someone say "Yeah.. Theyre called truffles.." busted up laughing. No one had a fucking idea what they were when i explained them. but they were fresh and i had no interest in dehydrating them

I confess that I'm on a 4 day spawn making binge...200 liters goal working with jars and I might just freak out..It is really hot, Did 50 liters this morning and have fifty prepped, but not dry. I don't have big enough tools yet and did I mention the heat? Holy fuck. And fuck it, while we're here. I think I'm addicted to concentrates.

Jesus man slow down just do between 78 and 100 qts of spawn. A week on the weekend. Steam sterilers are the bomb. What grain did you use?
I confess when ever I eat fresh cubes I end up in some strangers bed.

Molly is a stimulant, an amphetamine analogue I believe. And most is cut with a couple other stimulants. Acid makes you not sleep as well, mental stimulant.
How did you ever stay up so long with no stimulants? ? Heh

Yeah both increase stimulus in the brain/neuroactivity.
I stay away from everything but fungi and ganja these days honestly.

woow this is amazing, how did you find him (or he you?) did you get to know him on the internet or is it "just" a regular friend ? If there was a way to teach strangers like this, or at least encourage own research and give some tips I would be very glad to do it I think

confession: I am starting tto love mycology too much, but am concerned that I dont need that many magics, I might end up doing stupid shit like giving them away for free to strangers to strangers just to rid myself of them so now starting to try living out my drive with edibles - sadly I only like portabellos so it might be a bit hard at first, but thats how we know it right, thats what made the early learning so fun and rewardable - and also I guess many things wil be quite similiar too, for example being able to fruit in a tub, whihc for example with oysters seems not to be common

Agar makes me nervous... I only had around 80% success with my first petri dish ME pour plates.... (10) My gf messed up the next two rounds pouring. (20)
I Finally got some lids with self healing ports and SFD filters made for Pastywhite's no pour agar but it still makes me nervous.
Hopefully these MS aren't as dirty as I think they are and my SAB tech has been sloopy... and hopefully my "clean" ME pour plates are clean for these transfers.
Pray for meh lol
