Alcohol will fuck up some shrooms, but iodine is more forgiving, it's what I use to clean wild mycelium I've collected, used to use hydrogen peroxide but it to is harsh and unfriendly to myc.

I confess, a Psilocybe cubensis just made me want to travel to far away lands.
I googled Koh Samui.

The closest I'm getting right now is to eat some Koh Samui, and mind travel there.
But I'll probably take that wrong left turn at Albuquerque...

Guess that spore print was in a hurry to get into the jar.

Ate; or rather drank; 12g of KSSS tea on Tuesday and Iβm still jet lagged from the trip there and back haha. In all honesty it was the most visual trip Iβve ever experienced, and at times on par with some of the more spiritual ones as well. All in all a pretty incredible time.
I confess that I may end up tossing all my B+ cultures and starting over. Kinda bumming because it was the first time going from my own print all the way to mature fruits. Theyβre just consistently so damn tiny Iβm getting sick of harvesting/loading them in the dehydrator, and that usually my favorite part about this hobby!

I confess Iβve been slacking on doing transfer. Did three tabs of L and two points of sass Friday. Didnβt go to bed till 6pm yesterday and ended up waking this morning at 6am. Itβs time to get cracking on making some wbs master jars and transferring plates.
Happy Sabbath!

You know, that is an excellent idea for a travel package, shroomery should set up a travel agency forum to set set up group trips, I'm willing to bet big money that some farmers in countries that don't enforce laws on magic mushrooms, would be willing to let small groups pick mushrooms from their pastures. Hell, they probably won't mind picking and setting up a trip house on the property. That would be a dream journey for sure, it would be the very first thing on my to do before I die list.

When I was a young, budding, master cultivator I was 100% that guy that everyone hates in this forum lol, I sucked at using the search function, I would read teks to follow and I was making "improvements" every step of the way, I once bought a light to put INSIDE my monotub to ensure it got enough light to grow right. My first pf tek grow I inoculated my jars infront of the oven, and my first bulk substrate was "pasteurized" in a slow cooker. I was the WORST kind of noob lol. Just thought I'd confess my sins.

I confess, I needed to do transfers for a few trades this weekend, and haven't been in a state to do it... this dog situation has the whole household in discomfort... will get them done this afternoon, or (more likely) tmrw morning (myco day)... Life fucking sucks sometimes, but we'll be spending any free time watching the road... this motherfucker WILL look my 7yo in the eye and explain why they didn't stop... (and/)Or they'll carry an ass whoopin'! If I owe you a culture (gourmets only of course) it's coming, bear with me... I allow all trade plates to recover and leap off/establish(give contaminants a chance to show) before sending, so may be as late as late next week before you recieve... my apologies

crushed his skull ... flopped and bark for a minute... relieved himself in the backseat before gasping his last breath on the way to emergency vet... I tried to keep the boy at a distance, but he's had nightmares (as have I) last 2 nights... I'm livid

Fuck. Thatβs so tough. Kids are super resilient, he wonβt ever forget but he should pull through ok with your loving support.
Iβve actually hit two dogs before, (just lucky I guess) both ran out at my truck, neither were killed but I canβt imagine not stopping. It was so horrible I can understand not wanting to deal with it but as a human with a shred of morals you have to stop.
Love to you and your family. π. Losing a pet is so hard.

That's been the most devistating... he keeps saying things like "Why wouldn't they stop? " And "how could they just keep going?" Really breaks my heart, and I don't have an answer for him...
