This just gets more and more confusing. I thought there wasn't a goal... From the outside it seems like a form a segregation, like only few people are "the cool kids" ive tried asking eat what it was about just out of curiosity once but was ignored. Is it about spreading spores or avoiding people?

I don't have the attention to detail to be a great grower. I'm just happy to be feeding the dehydrator. But that tribe shit... I find myself thinking about it a lot and I dont even know what it is. I'm sure this is probably the worst way to go about it but damnit this is confessional and I had to get it off my chest.
pretty sure telling them to "let you in" isn't going to get you what you want. As cool as you think you may be with a member it's not necessarily going to get you an invite. Theres a set of standards that apparently they don't even know... I know where you're coming from and im sorry, it's not a fun position to be in. Its like all your friends got a new crew and that crew doesnt want anything to do with you... Ive been there, most of the guys talking about this here have been around roughly the same amount of time as me and I see them as peers and even friends, and it sucks to see them only show love for their tribe when you care for them all just as much as you care about the hobby.
Sorry for getting so sappy, it just sucks to be excluded by those you look up to and respect dearly

The only reason it seems like just a clique is this quote from eatyualive
WHAT IS THE TRIBE? THE TRIBE is a group of friends who love to cultivate knowledge and mushrooms the same, we may all use a varying method or different ways to reach one end goal. To have fun growing and share knowledge as our main goal, we strive to push the envelope forward instead of sitting idly in a bubble using the same old methods and ideas. These ideas may not be the mainstream but some may set the bar in the future of mycology.
That sounds like most of us.... We all love cultivating mushrooms and knowledge. Ive only seen a few of the members set any bars in cultivation. Conversely there's tons of capable and innovative members who aren't part of the tribe. All that says to me is that you dont have any way of choosing the tribe. You have to be hand chosen. That doesnt only happen by learning chess.
I know it seems like I'm just talking shit on the tribe, but i love you all and you've been great to me so its upsetting when they only seem to care about the tribe. The tribe arent the only ones around here that are awesome. Bph, youre the shit. You don't need their approval. Just keep swimming, find your tribe in the real world and work towards some goals. I know how it feels to be left out, but really they're left out because they don't have your badass in there

Na I'd doesn't bother me to be exclude. If it was easy as making an account and saying I want in I wouldn't want in. It's just that... I want in. Lol. But I love you to man. Don't get me wrong the shroomery is my fam and if that's all that ever happens I'm cool with that. That said I'm gonna stop talking about it now but it was nice to get that off my chest.
I confess. It's 6am and I am about to expand this PEUW to 30 plates. Then go feed the dehydrator. I fucking love this shit.

What I know about the tribe is extremely limited so hopefully I'm not talking shit here.
It's so cool how everyone in the tribe seems to support each other and do wonderful things for other other people and I don't think it is only tribe members they help out but seems to be the general focus.
I get what you're saying trypt. I don't want to feel like leaving people out or having the appearance of being in a better class. I have people who have my back and I am happy to quietly help people where I can. I love almost everyone in here, tribe member or not and there are so many talented, innovative, generous and helpful people in here in general.
I'm not sure where I sit on the fence with this. All I know is I'm pretty happy just doing what I'm doing and appreciating all of you so much. The love and support I see here from so many people like you trypt makes me so grateful just to be a part of Shroomery.
@BPH if you want to join, go for it. You don't need to join them but you might enjoy it. Just don't drink the kool aid man! LOL
I confess I get pretty mushy when I think of the wonderful people of the Shroomery.

Trust me bro, you cant feel worse for me than i do, for whatever reason i felt like throwing myself a pity party last night, sorry guys, I've never really found my place in the world and it skews how i see things.
When i first learned about the tribe i was ecstatic because i felt like eat was describing me and many others in that post, but aparently just his friends.
Bottom line is it sucks to feel left out, but it's not like yall are dicks or on my shitlist, i just feel inadequate in so many ways. This is purely me projecting my insecurities. Sorry for derailing the thread.
I confess when i stopped cultivating this year i forgot about a few unsterilized pints in the fridge   And i left my pc full of grain...

@Nate, good shit, makes me not dislike her as much lol
I confess, I crank the tunes when in front of the FH but it takes me so long to do anything because I always have to pause my movements so I can sing, far too enthusiastically.

For real though, as cool as the tribe is, I’m shroomery all the way. All those that take a minute to share a kind word, those that risk themselves by posting pictures of mushrooms, those that want to learn and teach, those that only want to heal themselves and others. These are my tribe

I've become a big fan of the Michell Petrucciani playlist in Spotify for my agar and SAB work. Nice flow to it but doesn't get me pumped like my other choices. Soft and smooth so it keeps my movements from getting excited and more rapid to the rhythm.
Just to comment on the tribe talk..... I am too new here to have real input on it, but everyone wants to feel included, especially if it involves something they are passionate about, even if the choose to opt out of that inclusion. But this place, this community, is a beautiful thing to be a part of in its own right. Sometimes we get the feeling of isolation, or subpar, or just not being good enough for whatever task for what ever reason. Many, if not most, don't recognize these feelings for what they are, let alone vocalize them and even hold themselves accountable. I know this community is limited by the physical restrictions of this format, and even IRL support is still just "support" and can not fix the issues. So these emotional demons must to fought alone and often in darkness, but I want all of you to know that long before this convo started, and long after it has ended, I am rooting for you; not the demons.

Seems like everytime I take a break then start back up I always fumble something up. But it's like anything else. The more you do it the better you get and you find the way that is most effective and efficient for you. Grain prep is important. it's good to have a method that creates consistency in your outcomes.
Same. TIL grain source is also important, some suppliers spray it down with an endospore producing bacteria that can make things that much harder. I believe even `organic` farmers will do this. I lost a tub to trich today!

Love this place... Love these people... I know I'm a dick, I'm very inept to social nuances... I confess I need this place way more than it needs me. No matter your circumstances, there's someone who identifies with ya at the shroomery! Thanks all!
