Been putting cultivating edibles off because of fear of fucking up pasteurization.. Gotta learn sometime I guess

I have this strange mental issue where I have to use all the same thing. Like it bother me that I have all wide mouth jars for mycology, and may be commandeering the canning jars which are regular mouth. Fucking OCD I guess.

growing mushrooms is really cool 
anybody who said drugs 'dont make you cool' obviously never, smoked good bud or grew mushrooms. and we are awesome for being able to grow them(some of us at least) i laugh at the surfs as they toil about.

Yea I'm one of those scrubs still scrapping by. But you know what, space and people in space make it hard for now. I'm working in a coffin of a closet.

But am currently working on a room over here.

And then at some point over here there will be a small room about 6x8 for clean work.

Long term goal(like 5-10 year goal) is get to grow some edibles profitably. I got a big 2 car garage with a 10x12 room and a big garden shed. I should be able to use those for a shit load of oysters. Plenty of room for pasteurizing and what not. The whole garage is either 20x22 or 22x24, hell I can't remember but I use it like a shop.

Nah they were dried out and brown(been in that fridge for over a year)... Pretty sure the cultures were dead...its been really hot in the room with my fridge...and the fridge acted like an oven and baked them when it crapped out... And mold was growing in the fridge so I tossed all that shit...too much sanitizing and wiping shit down for my liking...

Long time lurker and not sure how active I'll wind up being, but I'm starting my second round after a few years so here goes;
Waking up one morning about four years ago and literally saying to myself, you know what, I haven't committed any felonies lately, how about . . .
Examining every storage container in existence while mentally figuring out all the details and walking out an hour later with nothing, multiple times, yep - used to this one though, I've had a lot of "ecclectic" hobbies over the years and have gotten pretty good at politely telling people to fuck off.
Being excited as all hell the day my case of plastic petris came in, whipped up my first batch of agar, poured, and threw 50 into my PC - let em cool while I was at work, planned out exactly what I was going to do all night, got home the next morning and popped it open to find - Take a guess 
Making an almost conscious effort to half-ass sterile technique and environment - If it can't survive it doesn't deserve to.
Previous job - casually pocketing several lbs of raw gelatin over a period of days on the idea that agar=gelatin . . . Then while doing more research realizing that a nutritious support medium would lead to liquid goo - came very close to wasting a lot of time and effort on that one.
Current job - checking my master schedule every day to figure out what will be running on the overtime machines - and who will be working, on the chance that I'll be able to sneak out some tubs under the radar. . .
. . . And major peeve, the existence of wide-mouth jars. I know that in this hobby I should embrace them, but I've been canning for almost 20 years and refuse to use anything but regular. I have been averaging 10-20 cases of pints and half-pints, every year, just for that, and refuse to keep a double inventory. And you know what happens every springtime when everyone starts giving their jars back? For every ten jars I give, I get at least two spaghetti-sauce jars, one wide-mouth quart, one quater-pint, one regular quart, five lids, and two rusty bands back - What The Fuck? And this is from people that have known me forever. HOW? The math just doesn't make any fucking sense.

Fuck it may have been a month ago last I checked it... And mold grows in hot humid places such as a broke fridge...why would I clean a broke fridge? I was going to try to save the slants but they looked fuckin horrible.... I wasn't confident it would be worth trying to save them...plus I was pissed off and wanted that shit gone...so out the door it went and straight to the trash can
