Haha, I went picking libs on Friday and on the way home everything looked like lib caps. The tops of gate posts, the triangle road markings, the graphics on the side of a truck. Ophiocordyceps is an brilliant analogy!!

Hi Faithful Confessors...
I must confess I've been too busy to hang here with ya. However, I'm getting ready to print or swab some special stuff to give away to members of the gang here. Keep confessing. I love what you share!

I confess I had to throw out my first mono tub due to a fungus gnat infestation. It was on its second flush and when I opened the lid those little fuckers were everywhere... Sucks balls, but I set up some traps around the house in hopes of eradicating those little buggers. Here’s to hoping

The comedown was Imo better than the trip. The actual trip was too wild and fast for me to even comprehend.
I was one with the earth, with myself, with everything, after the craziness of the peak.
I need to get back/out there again soon. The last few times I've dosed have been with measured amounts and they have been just so so. Cool, but not earth shattering. I need to just go for it and take the ride.
I got through a quart, 2 pints, and a half ounce worth of chocolates between 10pm friday, and 8pm saturday... 100g total... 4 varieties lol... I'm going to take a break for 2-3 weeks (maybe) and do 30-35 in a single dose (probably tea)... I also prefer the comedown, I'm given control: and the further out I get, the more control I'm given... almost like I'm being rewarded for my unwavered curiosity...

I confess... I want to hear about caps mcgee drinking a 200g tea. Shroom chocolates rarely work as well for me. Especially eaten over time. Fuck control. Go out of control that's what shrooms are for imo

I confess I've been growing an unknown Cube for about 4 months. Got it on a trade that was supposed to be PE but nah. Takes forever to colonize, grows like shit, yields like shit, tastes like shit, and if I'm lucky I get a few shrooms before it eventually gets mold or trich. But dammit those buggers are so fucking potent. Ate 2 grams last night and fried me for 5 hours. I'm down to 2 tiny little mutant looking shrooms growing and debating if I should print and try starting over with new genetics or eat them and scrap it.

If it grows like shit dont bother. You'll get more potent varieties down the line, and if not just up your dosage to equalize.
To me I'm more interested then growing times and flush density then the actual resulting trip If you grow it with love, It may waver in potency but treat you right.

No lol it didnt work. I only gave the toad like 3 days to kick it in there. The mushrooms didnt get stunted tho. the flies won that fight, but everything was torn down and scrubbed. I only have problems with flys or trich infections when i keep the fruiting room above 75 so i guess ill have to deal with slightly slower growth for now. Meh
Im trying this next

I really doubt it will help long term tho if i try to do a perpetual decent sized effort because the source of the problem is the larva bedding in the substrate if i understand correctly.

thought possibly I cut out a slow sector from agar. Admittedly I got excited about cultivating PE for the 1st time and only did one transfer.
I'm done, I invested a lot of time and spawn on a shit grow

I may have to get one of those if my traps don’t work out and the gnats keep at it. That’s pretty funny you put a toad in there lol. Definitely need to keep those temps down if you’re having problems with fly’s. I think I got infested because I brought all my succulents and cacti inside.
