I've got maz and pe6 on agar now. Just did the first transfer from spores yesterday. Looking forward to these two varieties! It seems the community holds them in high regard

PE6 has been my favorite of 6 varieties I've grown, and any I ever bought prior to getting into mushcult

I'm rolling with lurker myself!
I was just thinking about the reasoning behind RR decisions to come up with a standard looking cube that had the potency of a mutant. As a grower I love the weirdo shrooms. If I was strictly a consumer then they might put me off.
If you think about it almost sounds like a business strategy to increase profits. Hmmmmmm. I guess we will never know.

Figured I'd go ahead and put the pic took yesterday in here and give thanks to this thread. Got me 3 of my first shoeboxes with a monotub to see what works best in the area conditions. Though my money is on the shoeboxes are what will be stuck with after as space saved is just unbeatable, especially if they give a good canopy of yum yum. But yeah, Thanks to the OP of thread and the hundreds of pages of posts I have read, and Mgee :P

That's interesting. it would be much easier to print and make syringes to sell for sure. but with pe and ape as it is, producing mass syringes is done with centrifuges to separate the materials in the caps by density since they barely print. When you need that kinda equipment, it limits how many people are able to make and sell them. Gives them a sort of lock on the market that doesn't exist with other varieties. Atleast that's my thoughts.
Hope you guys like the PE6 as much as I do.

So i just harvested 2 boxes.. not super happy, bad casing (didn't level it well and shrooms came up in clusters and most around the edges) .. i think my next ones i will try no casing. 480g wet for 3 boxes.. meh.. my question i though.. soak for another flush? I have been searching and see do and don't soak.. If so.. how long? just add a few inches of water for a bit then dump out? first time.. sorry for the newb shit thanks guys...

Sounds like the medium from all I've read on here, some have let float for 4 hours, some just enough shots of water to hydrate. I'll prolly do your hour worth when mine comes time.
Which a single day later here are the 1:2 (need to get good cam fixed, this Kindle Fire cam sucks)

Tea is the bees knees, people always think I am crazy... but since high school to help eat it raw I get a small spoon of peanut butter in my mouth and load up like a face bowl of mushroom cereal and the pb is the milk....
