She's getting one too whenever she feels ready :p
Storage container would be cool, though next time we move it's gotta be to a place that has room for a dedicated flow hood n SAB room and a decent grow room. Can be the same room, but then I'd probably put in a wall or something. I'm feeling absolutely cramped right now...

damn, that's a nice space. Lot's of possibilities... I'd like it to be just a bit bigger than that, and indeed, a sink with faucet and electrical gas stove or electric outlet for an electric sterilizer.

We have no gas on our property all electric i guess i could install one just for my shed but it is a little small i could fit about 70+ 66qt tubs and still have room but another 10 feet on either side would be great ....
I kind of was rushed when i put it together i was gonna do the add on just cut a door on the side and build the room next to it so i could grow oysters and they would be sealed from my other grows plus the sink and stove ..
Ive got 2.38 acres here so i have potential for whatever its just getting down and doing it

Damn dude thats gnarly. Reminds me of my fingers after going through a deli slicer. Doc was so rushed to close them up that he mangled my fingers. Looked like edward scissorhands got a hold of me. Could've fit an extra stitch in between each one lol. My fingerprints look so messed up now. Amazing how quickly shit can go wrong. Hopefully it heals well for you

Ooooooooooooooooh! So excited! I see some fuzz that is growing in a circle and not just the faint translucency anymore from when it first starts to appear. Hopefully that white fuzz is mycelium and not pin mold forming. I'll open the jar tomorrow and look when I see more. When is it usually ready to transfer. Like how big should it get. Is quarter size ok or is it whenever I can distinguish the different sectors. I'm not tiger dropping with it yet. Just making a mono culture. Is that what I want or just to clean the mycelium for tiger dropping and then using my favorite mushroom from that grows from the culture to make a clone. It's funny I got this far and still don't fully understand what I'm trying to do. I feel like I shouldn't be too hard on myself about that because I made my own agar and dropped it on there and it's growing at least. There's my confession for the day.

My confession is that today, I picked a small shroom and a few aborts, weighed out at 1 gr (fresh), and felt absolutely twisted colourful inside. There were no open eye visuals, but closed eye visuals, and drifting off to other places with closed eyes, living through entire scenes as if I was there, and an absolutely heavenly shower. Who ever said shrooms were more potent dried?

I don't think anyone ever said they are more potent dried. Just that potency loss between wet and dry is negligible in respect to overall potency.

technically they are, but it's due to water weight

I always dried min at around 100f back in the day. Book I read claimed the active degraded much faster above those temps. lol I used a wooden box, screen on top, and a light bulb in a mounted fixture inside the box for heat. Put a fan on them as well for air circulation.

Yeah, I saw it, I've been saying that fresh is stronger by comparison for quite a while now, but get more ppl trying to convince me that can't be right I think it's because in the Netherlands, the dried shrooms were banned first because they were more potent, but that's just bc of water weight, but it seems like it made it's way into a lot of people's heads that they actually get stronger while drying for some non-existent reason.
What do you mean by "household electronics"... Like... The vacuum?

my pics are shrooms dried on the top of a old CRT computer monitor. temps were 109f when it was on. 100f with air is a really shitty way to dry them too. i bet the weight was completely fucked back then.
and by the time someone ate them i bet they were all bendy and shitty.
