My First Post(billcoz)

What's up Scroomery!? It's my first post, my cherry's gettin popped right now, glad to be here!
About me- I have already learned enough to get by and more from this(and other) forums from just searching around, though I am still a noob to most of this stuff but I do understand the principles of the teks,
I am kinda obsessed and it's almost all I do(gotta lotta time) is read about edible and non-psychoactive fungi & mycology & growing as well as cannabis(and other plants).
So I hear it can be a tough crowd around here so I'll try not to ask too many of the same noob questions that seem to have filled up the forums, so many search results are the same thing being replied over & over.
My experience- After a couple PF cube grows(B+,B.Meanie,G.Teacher,Burma), & currently two dubtubs(2x6 qt with B.Meanie & B+, all MS syringes from TSD) I'm eager to get some cultures going on agar and test the prints I took, also for longer-term storage/grabbing & saving genetics.
Right now I don't really need to be fruiting anymore(got too many dried already), but I don't wanna stop, so tiny 6qt tubs will be perfect & I feel like experiencing all the steps of this hobby is required for expertise(which I don't yet have). Surprisingly to me I haven't gotten any 'tams, aside from possibly a stack of cakes that I was told(diagnosed through a pic online) had verticillium(lumpy myc) that I quarantined in a 20 qt mini-SGFC and it fruited fine(see pics). I started with a pot & lid, but I did borrow one for the last couple batches of cakes but I just bought an 8 qt pressure cooker yesterday, so I'm good to go.
Sorry bout the long intro haha, here's some pics fer ya-

Wait, how do I upload pictures?
When I go to upload, none of my pics are in any of the folders they normally are.
All the other files are there, but my pics, which are normally in my documents, downloads and pictures folders are all missing from those in the up-loader that pops up.
I don't know what to do, this thread is boring, can anyone help with the pictures?
THX.

Welcome to the Shroomery! Glad to have you here and feel free to ask any questions you have, even if they are noob questions. The search function is great, and will answer a lot of questions, but sometimes its better to just ask because you don't always find exactly what you are looking for when searching.

Thanks guys! It took me a while to figure out the pic up-loader and the avatar thing, got it tho.
The last three pics are my struggling dub-tubs, which I have had FAE probs in, but I have dialed it in.
I wanted to show those because it's two sub-strains of cubes(B+ & Blue Meanie)CO-OPERATING, which is fascinating to me. I was hoping for some comments on how cubes are all the same.
They were BRF cakes that I grated up and mixed with roughly a 1:4:3 spawn(cake)/coir/verm ratio, two B.Meanie & three B+ 1/4 pint cakes grated and mixed well.
I was not sure if the stronger of the two types of myc would compete, with the stronger one winning, but considering it was one more B+ cake and it turned out that there are just a few more B+s than BMs, it seems that they are about even.
Now, I know all that, but they definitely do have growth tendencies and characteristics that are unique to each sub-strain. I can tell a lot of the fruits apart, the BMs have a tendency for smaller, more honey-brown caps, especially as pins while the B+ has fatter, darker, reddish-brown caps/stipes and bigger overall fruits FOR THE MOST PART, a lot are harder or impossible to tell apart by looking. This is a cool experiment for me that happened by accident, I hadn't even thought about them being different until I had started grating them lol, then I panicked and was gonna split em,then thought "fuckit! I'll mix em", against advice from some on another online forum.
Here's a couple more pics of the BM/B+ dubtubs, the FAE issues seem to be fixed,more, bigger pins than the first few that matured early.

lol . that cardboard dryer is hilarious! really takes me back. reminds me of highschool. we would go out and pick way more cy's than we knew what to do with an then have to make something of a similar fashion to disguise them from our parents while they dried at one of our houses.
not to knock your dryer tho. it is indeed practical
