That 2g did feel a lot like 4g though.
I confess that the last three time I have tripped I have felt immense back pain... omg... I spend a good couple hours just grunting it out because it's so hurting. But it is also an integral part of the experience... It makes it feel more raw and in my body, which is grounding. But hell it fucking hurts! Is this normal? LOL what is happening to me?
I swear I just spent 2 hours freestyle rhyming while I was tripping... it was profound

I confess i just did a lot of SAB work and i grabbed my last virgin plate i had made up and noticed a tiny green mold speck. I pour as early as i can so they end up sitting a few days-week if all goes well before i use them.
Thought about it for a second. Slapped a wedge on the opposite side.

I just need a few days growth and i'm transferring anyway. 98mm plates are big.
I also confess i need to tighten up, i had two plates that had tiny contam specks. Maybe i should sweep.

I do that even when I'm sober. You can see the horror and confusion on her face. But I have food and warmth so all is forgiven.
I confess my store got a new brand of natural ice cream and the flavor is southern banana pudding. I ate the whole pint. Just yesterday I was wishing someone made rice pudding ice cream. I've never seen pudding flavored ice cream before and then this new brand appears in front of me on sale. Do you ever just think how weird some of life's chain of events are? Also those two tubs still look like they are going to make it and the TOC's jumped off the agar and are doing good.

hello timethyl, heard of you but we never really crossed paths. check this out.
i don't pasteurize or prep anything. just add water to the mulch. pretty simple.

I've heard of you as well , I've studied your work for a very long time.
I knew Pleurotus were very forgiving, but no prep at all.. that is impressive! They seem to be pinning up in healthy clusters as well.

yeah i had to induce fruiting a little by cutting holes. most times the clusters form first. then i cut holes around them. but i had to throw them in the corner with little airflow for a bit. so i just cut some holes and they started pinning up the next day! i think they needed to be induced about a week ago.

also, if you buy the bag new, its usually moist. so you may not even need to add water. you could spawn directly. although i still added water and let it soak for an hour just in case. then strained.

I think I need to induce my straw bags. I haven't been paying attention to my stuff with my apartment search. Also been a bit hard with my shoulder right now. I fixed my med levels and now my shoulder was like hahaha no happiness or easy apartment searching for you! I'm not sure what to do because it's a wild clone. It likes to fruit in colder temperatures so I put it in my bulkhead thinking that would help. I'm going to cut some holes in it today now that you mention it. But that requires I set up my new fruiting chamber also which I confess it's been a bit hard to do. I'm just thinking about sticking them outside and letting mother nature do her thing soon if my shoulder doesn't get better or just leaving them in the bulkhead to fruit. Just lots of sloppy myco work lately. I need to get my head straight.
But anyways those oysters look fantastic eat! So pretty. I just got my blue oyster culture that I usually use in the mail that is very productive and likes the ambient temperature here so I will be starting that up soon. At least I know that one is on a level of care I can handle at the moment. I feel like I need a win as far as growing something decent lately. My whole life will change once it gets warmer. I usually feel twice as good and don't hurt as much. Just twiddling my thumbs and waiting.

Plus I confess I am not sure what to do with this hypholoma sublateritium once it finishes fully colonizing. It's taken forever but it's almost there. It need really cold temps so I'm thinking of just putting it outside in a few weeks.

hey TBC. i had some shoulder pain for the last few days. old surgery, repeated injuries. working out. just ain't the same. always locks up in the triceps and elbows. but up to the lats and shoulders. feels like a knife. ive been taking cbd oil, i actually got some muscle relaxers for another issue. but i don't like the hangover feeling afterwards. so im only taking them when im in dire pain. hope yours gets better. i think you mentioned it before. i think i need surgery on my other shoulder now. martial arts just wreck the joints. but for the problems i have in the shoulder. i can still lift decent weight. not sure but that is probably not helping lol
