A.k.a said: I would love to be able to just throw some tissue in a machine and see how potent it is. That would make things so much easier.
Imagine picking clones and just feeding bits into a machine to see which ones to use instead plating, growing and eating them all.
I’m sure we’re not too far away from that. Pretty soon places will have alkaloid percentage stickers on the bags they sell.
There is a project here in Germany, developing test kits for psilocybin. It is still in testing, but will be available soon. Projekt Miraculix Someone in a german forum got to test it. https://www.zauberpilzforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=374&start=15#p70731

Bag experiment hasn't been as successful as I would have hoped, but not a total failure.
Cloning the big guy and probably the cluster when it's ready. Have a bunch of side pins so I rotated the substrate to see if they pick up a little.
Do you guys open up your bags when they start pinning or keep them sealed?

Not sure if the bags are opened when pinning but here's BuddaKings tek:

1 to 3 spawn ratio actually.
5 FULL quarts spawn in a Unicorn 3T 95% Wheat 5 % Millet
To
Basic bucket tek @ 150%
1000 grams dry coco 300 grams dry verm 6 quarts hot water from my hot water heater cranked all the way up
Mix it all up in a cheap concrete mixer & devide it between 6 Unicorn XLS-A grow bags with tops rolled to just above the filter & paper clipped at the top.
did you do something pretty similar? also found this, also from BK
Quote:
I have also popped 4 1/4" holes just above sub & covered with ms tape to increase FAE on stalled or slow bags that were overfull. They subsequently exploded. I am pretty sure the filter was overwhelmed on em & the breath of fresh air triggered a massive pinset.

Thanks Junk,
Yes, that's pretty much what I tried. Could just be my genetics. Maybe the clones will perform better.
I punched holes in 2 of my 4, but they haven't produced anything yet. I could just be impatient, my grows are cold and slow.
Not discouraged, Three giant shrooms is enough to keep my happy for quite awhile I just like growing them.

I appreciate you posting your progress, I'll be trying the same thing soon. I wanna get some monsters lol. You paper clipped your bags and were using a 3T filter too right?
from what I've gathered melmacs a fickle thing but rewards your genetic hunting heavily. I have high hopes for my attempts but I'm also totally prepared for some lackluster reverts that will take more digging

Only one way to find out.
Put it to agar to grains to fruit and see what comes out.

That's something I hadn't considered. I usually use .5 microns bags but did have some .2 bags laying around, they could have been mixed in. All my bags looks well colonized, hard to say.
The other thought I had was that I normally use oats but tried wbs for these. A lot of the smaller grains settled to the bottoms of the bags even after mixing well, so that could part of my problem.
I'll keep trying. After these finished I was going to switch my focus to exotics, but I guess I'm gonna keep plugging on these until I get some monsters.

I acknowledge they are not the desired pheno but my original spores were from a trusted source. Probably should have started with MS.
