I’m looking to start my first grow too, since it’s been a pain trying to acquire them by other means. I bought brf, some jars, isopropyl, and I have gloves. The other stuff I’ll pick up no problem, but spores are now my grail. I tried several online retailers and many of them won’t ship to CA, and that’s if they ship to the US at all. Another site apparently was going to accept it, but my bank rejected the payment. Probably due to fraudulent activity concerns.
Hopefully I’ll grow more than I’ll need for a loooong time. Will have to figure our the best way to store extra, and of course, MAKE PRINTS, so if I ever need to start again, I’ll be good to go.
Good luck! I’d like to see how it goes.

IKR!!! I tried quite a few European sellers but the payment methods didn't suit. then I found cylocybe they are in the UK but ship world wide, so far the service has been faultless, I just need to collect the package but I'm nearly sure everything is in order.

I checked them out, no hassle payment, ordered a syringe of B+ which I’ve heard is supposed to be a beginner friendly variety. I hope to be able to report back positive results.

I'm not sure who you're talking to, but don't spray lysol or work in your bathroom. Lysol does nothing and bathrooms are dirty & moldy.

This is awesome, I'm going to use some flavor of startup technique but it really looks like Bod likes to use whole grain with a specific type of tub and coir. It seems almost too easy to bulk that way.

Sorry If this has already been answered.
I am using wide mouthed half pint jars. After consolidation and removing the dry verm layer, I will put them back in the jars with new verm.
Is this verm supposed to be moistened to field capacity before I put it in or misted as needed?
Thank you.

Doesn't matter. If you're putting it in wet you would not need to immediately mist it to get it wet

first attempt great guide overall, thank you!!
So I am at the part where I'm misting it daily after consolidation, but I have am unsure what to do right now. I see 2 pins already and they are at the very bottom of the jar. What do you guys recommend I do with them? ie, should I let them grow, keep misting, or take it out and move it to a larger surface/bucket or anything like that?
these are the photos

Thank you. Looks nice. I think we should always do the easiest way, if new methods comethat are easier than the old.
As in the most elegant way. And the easiest is always the most elegant.
Overwork is no king worthy.
Only if there is some severe reasons to use harder methods, should we. I mean if it works reliable 90% or 95% of the time, I'm all for it.
I hate doing overwork.
I tell you people get conditioned to most anything. With the prideful idea that only their way could be right.
I seen some impressive grows that not been produced the pftek standard way or shroomery standard way, but nonetheless still seemed to produce very stable and impressive fruit.
People will hate anything that is not their own. It is good idea to with new methods to state how many times tried, how reliable it been.
Life is not a Science people. Life is simple

Just like he wrote up, add a thin top layer, throw a bag on top for humidity, mist as needed. Yields are gonna vary even when done right. Not all my pints make that much, genetics plays a role.

Trial and error is always your best bet. Everyone's conditions are different. Where I am there's rarely much humidity so I leave the bag on all the time. Open air just doesn't work out for me.
Typically I'm doing this with questionable jars I'm not using for bulk spawn. Sometimes when it's an extra jar that looks healthy, I'll break it up, mix in some bulk, and put it back in the jar to eliminate the gap between cake and glass. I get better top pinning that way and don't have to fish sidepins out of the jar(especially those RM pints).
