52g Amazonian * 2
    #26875249 - 08/11/20 02:45 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

This is the first mushroom I have ever grown. Just pulled it and weighed it. 52g. Wow. 8 inches. I might have been too late, was at work when the veil broke but I cut the cap off and placed it on a piece of glass hoping for a spore print. Just wanted to show off my success.

which will make it a 5g shroom, and consequently 5 grams is the lvl.5 heroic dose, according to McKenna

Thanks for your support. I am absolutly infatuated with this. Been a passion for a long time. I want to try a different strain next round. Anyone have any suggestions. Looking for a big yield and a more potent strain. Thanks everyone.

There's infinity strains of amazon that are stronger and bigger. And infinity more that are smaller and weaker.
Every two spores that mate make a strain with it's own unique characteristics

I didnt know that. Thank you for the information. I was asking about different lines. Like liberty caps, golden teachers, Cambodian, Ecuadorian, ect. Any suggestions or a personal favorite?

Those are considered “varieties” not strains. I personally really like AA+ because the fruits get huge! I also really like B+ and GT, they seem to give good canopies IME. PE6 also gave me some killer flushes and the shrooms are almost as potent as PE I hear.

Yea, I was leaning towards GT's. Might be a stupid question but if I can growing more than one variety in the same room will that effect the grow? I use rack with a room kept around 75 degrees and between 80 and 90% humidity. Prolly will effect it if diff varieties perfer slightly diff conditions. Thoughts?

All cubes grow the same. Unless you’re growing other kinds of mushrooms I wouldn’t worry to much. If you were doing edibles and medicinals alongside cubes I would consider different conditions. Btw humidity isn’t measured well with humidity gauges. You’re better off focusing on surface conditions and getting your sub to field capacity right out of the gate.

Edit: Post a pic of your set up if you could.

This is my setup. I had one tub thatmlooked like it had contam soni separated it, and it was actually the first one to pin and i put it in a Rubbermaid and i noticed the surface conditions inside the tub were much better than the racks and I did not have to mist it anywhere near as much as the others. Here are some pics of my setup.

Tubs and totes are great because they are more of a set it and forget it kinda set up. I’ve never had a humidity tent or Martha like you have so I wouldn’t know much about the way it works. I’ve preferred shoeboxes in most of my grows. Looks like you are getting some shrooms though :super: maybe someone else can chime in about the set up you have. Good luck :goodluck:

I want to try a different setup because I seem to be getting alot of side growth. So obviously the atmosphere on the sides where the cake pulled away from the foil pan is more preferable.  Also i fucked up when i first set them up. I believe the co2 was not high enough b which stalled the pinning and limited the mycelium colonization in the substrate. Interested in trying another batch with a couple different methods. I also had to buy pre sterilized grain because I could not get my hands on a pressure cooker, which I have since remedied.  Also I used a manure based substrate for the nitrogen aspect. Next round going to use coir and vermiculite mix.  Thoughts or recommendations?

If you tamp you’re sides down in your trays/tubs/boxes it will eliminate the side fruiting. They prefer the micro climate on the sides so they fruit there instead of where you want them (on the surface). Next time press the sides down a bit more. For the substrate use BOD’s Bucket Tek ... keeping it simple is the name of the game. I’d also try doing shoeboxes or monos next time. The grow tents and Martha’s can be hard to dial in. You could always sell your set up and just do simple tubs or shoeboxes. They work better IMO because if you get your sub at the right field capacity all you have to do is set it and forget it. The micro climate will just happen if you leave them be and keep the lid on till you see pins then crack the lid a bit or open a mono tub air hole or two.

Sounds much easier.ni am having a ton of problems with those stupid humidifier dripping on my floor, constantly cleaning it. Constantly spraying the substrate. Constantly doing fae. I love it but with the amount of attention and effort I expected more tbh.  I've learned alot on this first attempt though and happy I got some fruits. Really want to find a effective method that works for my schedule/routine because when I go to work I cant spray as much as I believe it should be done. Thank you for your input and advice. Much appreciated.

It’s all a learning experience for sure. I hear those humidifiers don’t really achieve the proper surface conditions. With shoeboxes or monos the micro climate is created on its own with the lid being on and proper sub moisture. Here’s a Tek for proper surface conditions https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/23999053

For shoeboxes https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/24038695/fpart/1/vc/1

For monos https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/22337800

I’d definitely try to get some money out of those tents, would give you money to buy supplies and stuff. Let me know if you ever have any questions, feel free to PM me anytime. And you’re welcome :mushroomgrow: you’ll do better next grow around and I’m sure those will still produce some fruits for you. Make sure to soak them after the first flush for 3-6hrs, then you can put them back and resume misting after they’ve had time to dry a bit.

That’s another thing... if you have constant moisture on your surface it will have trouble fruiting because evaporation is what triggers pinning. Also if you mist to much it will cause your surface to mat up and you won’t get any fruits on top the whole time..

I like doing shoe boxes like this https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/26009662

Slightly drier substrate, tamp down the edges, give it a 1/4” top layer very flat and even, tamp edges and mist heavily, then I leave it lid latched for about a week, unlatch and wait for mushrooms. I rarely have to mist before 1st flush and you can line your walls with stacks of these.

I haven’t seen that Tek yet, Shaper did a really good job with it! Better than Mushboy’s lol but his is what got me started on shoeboxes. Nice flushes btw! I remember getting five or more wall to wall shoeboxes myself.
