Any opinions or experience with most cold hardy species of psilocybe to experiment with in south central Alaska? I live up there from June to October, it does get cold where I live but from what I’m told it gets into the 40s regularly through the winter. Some good neighbors have a wood chipper and spruce birch and aspen.

All I know is I gave my azzies what I thought was the best and all I’ve got is happy looking myc, I cut a lot of corners with the ovoids and they have up lots of fruits, and the ovoid Fruited off Doug fir and cedar too, so I’m pretty partial to them any way. Will see how the azzies beds do over the next couple years, would love to see some production from them.

I’ve bought prints that just never germinated, and collected wild prints that took off clean right away, all I’ve used is MEA. So you may have dead spores, hard sayin not knowin. They can contaminate all the same as cubes on agar and grain, once you put them to wood is where contamns are not as much of a problem. The myc is white just like cubes, seems like it tends to be more ryzo.

Pretty cool. This is a Tub of cyans I gave to a friend for his birthday over a year ago, which was inoculated from a sawdust block I gave him for his birthday a year before. He seemed interested in planting it but it has literally just sat in his shop. I might just have to hijack it back from Him.

Slugs just take dedication, hit them with all the angles, the beer thing works for knocking them back egg shells work a little bit, keeping the grass mowed short helps, and spot salting them when their out, I would sprinkle them with kelp and soft rock phosphate, gypsum might work. But it takes work.

Back home my garden was between two creeks, so it was infested with snails. I would put out fresh beer traps every day, and every morning would walk around with salt or dry soil amendments and sprinkle every snail I would see for about a week, and it knocked them back pretty good. But it was such good habitat, and theoretically they do a lot of good for the soil, but really made a mess of my strawberries, and shiitake.

I had to move an ovoid bed while it was pinning this spring, and it looks like it’s taking off pretty well in its new spot

I found a few cyans growing right out of spruce and Doug fir cones, but they are much less dense and less resinous than most pine cones.

A wild clone was taken from an unusually strong bruising specimen. Primordia began to form after 60 days and took a further 30 days to mature.






to hell with tripping, those are bad ass beauties, any experience would just be icing.

Any recommendations/logs for gymopilus Leutiofolus? as in spawning to coir in a tub, sawdust blocks, outdoor patches and what not. Ive got some good grain spawn. I really want to try a classic log grow for fun, but would like to get to know this species.

Any thoughts on harvesting all, or leaving some to spread spores? I’ve read on here a theory that once some fruits are left to fully mature or spores hit the mycelium the fungus could be triggered that it’s job is done. Theoretically producing more fruits if all fruits are harvested.

If going form grain spawn to hydrated alder pellets do you all run the bags of sawdust in a canner, or can we just go straight grain to unsterilized wood, I know there would most likely be mold but wood lovers really seem to eventually beat the molds?. Or, going strain grain to tub of wood chips. This is in regards to ovoid, cyan, and subaeruginosa

Getting some landscaping done, I’ll update in a few years.
 Planting ovoid Cyans and subs, topping with Scott’s, and running soaker hoses.

Not sure what kind of advice your looking for. But you can start to germ knock build spawn and plant any time, and with 100s of acres you could put in a lot of hours building up spawn. Are you thinking of having their trees chipped for beds? And are you thinking of laying several acres of chips? What region? In the northwest we can get 100 yard loads of alder delivered for mushroom growers. In the Midwest you can Go into Hardwood sawmills And ask about sawdust and chips.

Some myc from ovoid planted at the end of July. This is about a foot away from where it was planted. Some of my cyan and my subs were really weak to begin with, but they’re surviving.

I know I’m out of the loop with this fermenting wood chips Method. Could someone share a good link for a tek for me please. Also has anyone noticed any advantage of using minerals like lime or silica or gypsum With their chips and patches?

Thanks Ferather, I used cardboard for my last round of oysters, but there’s a lot of sources for Doug Fir sawdust around here, I’m sure that’s similar to pine. Most important thing I need right now is time to get more things happening.

Do y’all just incubate most wood lovers at room temp or lower?
