Oh testicles. Went for a trip hike earlier, which has a beautiful waterfall halfway through. And on a warm day (34C/94F), that waterfall is perfectly positioned as a cooling down point.
Trip hikes are awesome except whrn you forget the shrooms like dumbass me did. Ended up having a regular hike.

Trip hike with no trip ... just a hike!
GENIUS! Definitely sounds like something I'd do

My confession is... that I confess to confessing, Iβve been slacking on my agar work.
Need to get some stuff going today!
Got transfers that need to be done, and extra money to be made later.
Thus concludes me confessing my confession.
The more times I type confess, confession, confessing, it really makes me wanna go to church....
Not!!!
Agar will be my church today

Yeah... probably stop and grab some more wide mouth quarts on the way home tmrw, and pick out another jar to give it a shot side by side... how fast is colonization usually? Gonna shoot for 1:10... I was thinking something like twisting back and forth: cool... I'm sure I'm making a mountain out of a mole hill, but this is important: tryna do my own thing for once... not that I can't try, try again... meh, it's gonna be great... I hope so, thx guys

I've found g2g to be easier than petri dish work. I'm always fucking up agar work and the first time I tried cloning I almost started drinking again I got so frustrated.
I almost never have issues with my g2g, I bump the sides, knock my lids off, hit the master jar against my receiving jar, and they all make it somehow! If I make a slight mistake my agar work is fucked!!

Agreed, G2G is the only thing that I do in the SAB with confidence of the outcome. I've done about 100 jars, with 0 contams.
Now my petris on the other handβ¦.Don't want to talk about it

I confess this morning I spawned my first tubs since late August! 6 tubs... felt nice, and Iβm excited for what comes next!
PS: despite one bag of spawn having a yeasty smell, I went ahead and spawned it anyway. Hoping for a few fruits...

It's been awhile since my last confession....
I confess to also being shook like elvis doing G2G today. I'm splitting each qt of spawn to 2 5lb spawn bags. 10 bags to g2G today and another 4 to spawn to bulk. I've been pre sealing before pc, what has me nervous is the whole procedure of cutting the bags open, doing G2G and then sealing them back up with micropore. I'm awaiting my impulse sealer still which should makes things less sketchy.
I also confess to getting my ass rocked by 6 grams of RustyWhytes this last week. OEV's were very minimal, almost all mental, cev's and body load. I honestly didn't care for the vibe at all, very racy and no real OEV's equals for me. I'll revisit them soon just to see if it was my mental space or just how this variety hits me.

Really? They're exactly the opposite for me! Intense OEV's, but not to psychological: kind of laid back... maybe you should try PE6, as it was both for me lol

I'm working on trying the PE6. Should go to grain this week. Was my 1st time trying tea as well and for whatever reason it took 3hrs for it to really hit me hard.
I was in kinda a stressed mental space so maybe that influenced the vibe alot. I was getting minimal existing patterns moving, a little breathing of things. I was getting audio hallucinations too. I'll try Rusty's again for sure, they've kicked ass for growing, my fastest from spawn to fruit for sure.
I myself am not a believer in the "cube is a cube" line of thought. Reminds me of what the old timers always said about weed. Varieties have different vibes and those can change from person to person.
Was the most intense trip I've had without OEV's
