I confess I'm extra nervous about inoculating jars tonight. Dunno why. I have this doomsday thing inside my brain where all 27 jars are going to go moldy and I'm going to have to do days of work all over again. I actually bleached my bathroom for the second time this week. I even used my glass indicators in the PC to make measure it's getting up to temp which is something I haven't done in a long time. Fucking trich ruining my life. I'm going to have my bedroom bleached down and any dust collectors removed and packed away before I put everything in bins. I just bleached all my shelves today too. I had to leave the house for a bit and put the circulator on and go out for a bit. I'm such a delicate flower with all my stupid sensitivities. Is there anything in this world as good as bleach that isn't as hazardous or strong? Doubt it.

Cause that's how mushrooms work. The more shriveled and nutrient deprived the sub becomes after several flushes the better it is to inoculate. I think we read the same thing.

Beautiful fruits! Especially the LM. Are you fruiting all of those in tubs?
Just the oysters. But the tubs didn't have lids on top. I just got an ultrasonic humidifier and set it above them and crossed my fingers. I should be getting my new greenhouse sometime this week which is exciting so I can grow more. The spore load was a little rough on me with the oysters and I got a bit of a runny nose from them so I want to contain them and run some tubing to circulate the air out of the house. Maybe I'll cause my whole neighborhood to start producing oysters.

I keep having this bad feeling that my cakes are going to trich out on me. I just don't like what I see. Hopefully it is only bacteria causeing the mycelium to thicken a bit. I don't like it knotting up before full colonization. To me that is a bad sing. But until I see color proving any mold hiding I will let them ride.

Looks like we both got trich on the brain.

I just know how that shit can get into a culture and hide. Fucking Trich mycelium fragments aint no joke. I have learned the hard way. It got to the point I had to build my flow hood. even with it, I work as close to the face of it as I can. I lost most of my cultures back in the summer due to high spore/ mycelium fragment load in my basement.

Man. That sucks. Yeah. I'm trying to adopt better practives not just in my lab but my grow room. I'm getting super close to having a flow hood but right now more jars and bins and filter material is a priority so I have have a strong contingency plan this time. Also I need my greenhouse to grow my food. Soon though.

My first few everything's turned green after spawning to sub this August.
Now, all I get is some sorta bacteria possibly.
But I'm getting 'free' shrooms on my experimental leftover straw grow.
 IDK why my camera's making everything yellower... I confess I don't know how to work my own camera. But, At least I figured out how to keep it from turning off from low batt. when batteries are new. That's all fixed.
I'm hoping for 'The Big One' Just 1 or 2 real monsters that I can show off about, but it has not happened yet... Everything I post here is a confession to being ignorant about cultivation.

I confess I need to read up a bit more on microdosing. I ate a small bit of stem yesterday and it was nice. Today I ate a bigger piece of a stem and shit got a little weird in the supermarket. I'm glad I'm home. Going to take a hit relax and then think about what needs to be done next.

I feel fine now that I'm home and I smoked a bowl. But that was a little weird. Some crazy large woman came into the supermarket complaining about wiping out in a puddle as I was leaving. I looked outside and it wasn't raining. Took me forever to realize she said pothole.

I always found microdosing had the best results when done every fourth day

I confess I did the bathroom bleaching thing and filtered the bathroom. Then I went and cooked dinner smoked another bowl and gave up on life. Guess I'll do it after the doctor tomorrow. Sucks though. Really wanted to get that done. tomorrow will be going on 3 days of the jars just sitting.

I don't understand why you are bleaching and filtering your bathroom?
