Woah thanks for everyones input and responses! Really appreciated :smile:

To clarify, I did follow the tek to a T. Just when it did come to steaming I left it on to high and it did over boil up under the foil causing the complete saturation. Didn't think to just discard and start over.. but I did and made up another 6 jars which so far are responding well!

I also did order the 23qt Presto Pressure Cooker. 265AUD :eek: but I do want this to grow into a long term hobby so I'm happy with the investment. Plus it's multi-use haha.

I've attached one of my jars that survived the first steam and looks like she's on her way to providing me with my first fruits! How far off do you guys think?






Damn that's $173.74 for an $80 pressure cooker :shocked: !!! It's safe to say you're commented now lol. To be completely honest with you it's going to pay for itself so I wouldn't worry about spending the extra money. If you think about it the average person pays like 30$ for an 8th. So if you grow
Like 21 grams it basically already paid for itself.

:seriousthumbsup:

You are correct, thanks! Just opened them all and had a good amount of cobweb on the verm barrier. Would moisture have been the main culprit?

Sterilized and nocced another 5 without any water getting in so hoping for a much better response :smile:




Yes, its moisture. U made your cakes way too wet. It should feel like damp, soft sand before loading into the jar.

You should also consider buying a dehydrator and vacuum sealer. You won't regret buying them I swear it! Your mushrooms will last years in the freezer..
The vaccum sealer is optional but you NEED to buy a dehydrator.

Dehydrator- The presto is around 50$ on Walmart.com. It might be a good idea to spend a little more to get an adjustable one

FoodSaver FM2000 Vacuum Sealer- 90$ on Walmart.com

Are they really 30 an eighth??


When I was asking around like a year ago one guy told me 35 and told him to fuck right off with that price.

The i was thinking about it, I used to get them for 20 but I realized that was like 2004. :shrug:



I’d say those jars will be 100 in a day or two, then you got consolidation, then fruiting.

So pins in two weeks probably.

It depends on the area and who you know. On average in mid west it's around 30$.

Yeah we don't always have the cheapest options for things like that over here in AUS. I'm not worried at all though, like you said I can easily make it back through selling even a little of my crop :smile:

Street value in my area for an 8th would be anywhere from $60-70AUD so around $30-45US. Usually the latter. Pretty fucked

I’m about to drive ~100 miles round trip tomorrow for a new Presto 23 in stock at a brick and mortar for $90. Not the $80 I paid 3 months ago on Amazon, but not the $125 they want now to get it mid July.

Damn.

After factoring in time and gas I probably would’ve just payed amazon.

Although it is really nice having it immediately.

Gas is fairly inexpensive around here at the moment and it got me out of the house for a while too.

They had 4 in stock at that price in Marion, Ohio. The name of the store is the opposite of “Urban Subject” lol
