I confess I have stabbed myself with a spore syringe, directly through my left hand, and continued my SAB work unhindered because I was drunk.
I once ate a PF cake to win a bet, and I did trip a little bit from it. I was young, I don't like losing bets. I also didn't know vermiculite was volcanic debris at the time.
I also experimented on my friends in an MK-ULTRA-esque style in my youth. This went on for years. I had a lot of issues back then... I am glad I found my way out of those dark places, not sure they ever did :/
Worst of all...
I did an overnighter in county on LSD in a turtle suit.

I've been a very busy kitty lately and haven't been around. Don't worry if I ghost for a bit. I just got my new apartment and I'm moving in May 1st and have a lot of arrangements to make and work to do. It's kind of weird having my first apartment and living completely alone. It's going to be awesome. I can have all my friends over to play poker, dinner parties and tea and the occasional naughty shenanigans. It's a pretty decent size. I got the extra room I wanted which turns out to be two extra rooms. I am converting the walk in closet into a mycology room since it's at least 10x10 and putting in a door handle with a lock. Now I can grow all the oysters and medicinals I want. Plus this place is spotless and not in a basement. I have already designed the bucket floggers with inline fans that I am going to build for my new chambers I'm just so super fucking excited.

I confess I left mush cult in a rush because life/circumstances. Now that I'm back I really regret deleting all my pictures and wasn't aware that it would leave some blank spots in the forums.
Here's some pictures from my first GT ghetto 2 litter grow my friend left me that got me started.
 
Here's some from my first cake grow that y'all helped me out with. AA+ & B+
    
My second cake grow, Transkei's and GT's.
    
And what I'm working on now, PB and TC shoeboxes with first pin

I confess...I ate shrooms that I grew myself for the first time last night. I'm in my late 30's, and have eaten them 100+ times in my life, but last night was my most satisfying trip to date

The 1st trip I had on fruits I grew, I rooted with a huge oak tree and it told me to keep on the path I'm on...I listened lol! And I've seen more mushrooms than most do in their lives

I confess that today I scared myself with my AA 941.
It is modified with a stop cock and a red over pressure plug so I can bring it up to 20psi and operate it without it making the hissing and rocking sound that drives my family crazy.
I got it set up today and brought it up to 15psi. I thought I'd stabilized the temp and pressure at about 20 psi, then my daughter wanted me to run an earand with her. I generally do not leave the house when I'm PCing. I left, we got tied up in some hassles.
When we got home the PC gauge was at 30psi!!!
 I was afraid to even get close to it. I was afraid someone would walk by and the over pressure plug or the stop cock would blow and spray them with super heated steam. I was freaked. So I turned it off and when it got back down to 20 psi I put the temp on very low and finished up the rest of the time.
I guess I know that I don't need to sweat it when the pressure gauge goes from 20-25 any more! (I have not opened it yet so I don't know if I melted my plastic bags and plastic lids).

I confess I'm late to the game and just started weighing down my weight on my presto 23qt
My 8qt I can turn the heat way low and it barely hisses or uses water, never needed any mod, but this 23qt is highly annoying and my first few times using it I almost ran dry it vented so much steam.
A Snapple cap with a nickel in it seems to do the best as far as loose change but I recently put a JFK half dollar on top and it's PERFECT. I can turn thr heat way low and have it throttle about 16 maybe 16.5 psi. The tiniest step down on my gas stove drops to 14 or below.
I've been thinking about how to fine tune it more until I read things like this that make me think some people run 18-20psi the whole cycle to avoid the hiss and water loss. Do y'all shorten your times accordingly?
