Hello... Shroomeryers?Shroomeryites? Everyone!
I was on page 27 of the coir tek before I looked to see how far away the end was. Ten years this month, 191 pages, and an active OP. Wow. You all are awesome people.
I apparently need to have 10 posts, so I thought I'd introduce myself here.
I'm going to be a first time mycologist. I have spores ordered, shipping next week. I'll be getting my PC and other necessary supplies in the interim.
I'm planning on growing B+ in a monotub, using hydrated popcorn as spawn, then Damion's coir tek as substrate, no casing on that. Debating on gypsum, we'll see if the bag the store has is powdered or not already.
I've been interested in this hobby for some time. I still have a video I downloaded 10+ years ago saved to my current PC that first piqued my interest. I wonder if it's someone here that made it? I've always kept that interest, and I'm sure I've perused here many times before posting now.
Anyway to work on getting that 10 posts: I thought instead of me asking questions as I have them (when I can't find answers, I do my due diligence), perhaps the community could 'quiz' me to see if I'm ready.
Cheers everyone!

There are better grain options than popcorn. Why did you pick that over the other options?
And whats your plan for using those spores?
Pro tip: Journal entries count toward your post count.

It is easy for me to get locally in quantities that are neither too small, or too large (2.50 for 4lbs), I like the prep work compared to WBS, and I haven't found a local vendor for rye berries.
From what I've read as long as you get the proper moisture content it can work just as well.
Thanks for the tip too!

IME the prep is harder than every other grain out there. And at that price you're paying $1.60/lb.
I live where the price of everything is super inflated. I can get various grains at the feed store for around $0.45/lb.
You might check around and see if theres a better deal for you.

Well it's a cube, and pretty much any tek here will probably help you depending on what you're wanting to know. Don't be afraid to use the search bar like google
