You can get everything online unless this doesn't jive with privacy concerns.
Amazon has more 6000k lights than you can shake a stick at, and eBay sellers have a lot of PC's available.

Thank you for the advice I appreciate any I can get. I don’t know what you mean by under your signature. And I’m not very computer savvy or forum savvy. I have a hard time navigating through this forum. It’s like a maze Like I don’t even know how to save a page. I find things useful and I don’t know how to get back to them again. I think that’s the most frustrating thing of all. What do you mean all of those things in your message where are the words and letters are all different colors?

Well hooray for me! I just bought a pressure cooker on eBay. A 23 quart Preston for $130 delivered by January 7. Now all I need is some spores to get started and then some agar to broaden my horizons.

Why did they call it a no pour Tek. Is that opposed to pour Tek?

Reason why I was having a hard time finding the damn lightbulbs because I was looking under or should I say in the grow light section. I didn’t realize they were regular lightbulbs. This is one of the reason why I have a such a hard time on this forum. It’s hard to ask specific questions and get specific answers that also applies while using the search engine. I guess it all comes down to patients in this one thing that I’m lacking. You have to ask a question and wait two days to get the answer sometimes it’s not the answer that you want and then you have to re-ask do more research and So it takes three days to find the correct goddamn lightbulb. I went to four different stores spent a total of three hours looking for a lightbulb in the whole time I was in the wrong section. Talk about frustration and discouragement.

I want to apologize to all you great people who have taken the time to help me. I just get so frustrated and angry with myself when I can figure out something and when I constantly hit dead ends. So then it comes out in my posts. I just find it so frustrating when I can’t get the answers I need to get started. It feels like I’m in an uphill battle. It’s just because I’m not computer savvy or forum savvy. I just don’t have a clue how to navigate through these pages and get the answers that I need. However at least I figured out how to save things now to my favorites. That should be a big help. Anyway thank you for all your help, patience, advice, and answers. I hope I haven’t pissed anybody off and push them away. Mike

No pour TEK's name is a bit misleading. You pour the AGAR plates before you put them in the pressure cooker. This makes it easier for some who don't like to pour sterilized agar in a SAB. Only certain types of plastic and Glass will survive the PC process so you are limited by that.
Bulbs - CFL 6500K Daylight is what you need. Please anyone disagree with me if they think other. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Philips-60-Watt-Equivalent-T2-Spiral-CFL-Light-Bulb-Daylight-6500K-4-Pack-434399/203248911

At the bottom of every page it says EXTRA INFORMATION and under that it says TOGGLE FAVORITE. Clicking on that will add favorites.

When you post over and over again without anyone answering then you are double/triple posting. This can make it a little more difficult for others to weed through. Ideally you want to edit your post and add the additional information or just wait till you can put it all in one post.
Getting good with the search supper helpful. All of your questions have been asked and answered multiple times. I know it's overwhelming, but the more you use the site the easier it will be to navigate.
Wait...did you add a Signature Line

Lol Wait...did you add a Signature Line
Yes I did. I learned how to make my own signature. I was very proud of myself too. I know the people that are text savvy on here think it’s funny or think that I’m pathetic that I can navigate my way through here but as you said the more I do it I’ll get it. I still don’t understand what I double posted. I don’t see where I repeated myself with the exception of my multiple complaints. LOL which I am going to start doing. Frustration gets nobody nowhere. If anything it just slows you down even more. Thank you for the link on the lightbulbs however when I clicked on it and checked into it there are none at the store where I’m located and there are none online at Home Depot however at least I have a brand-name and a place to start now. The one thing I have not figured out how to do is how to post a picture. And yes I did read the directions. And even said in the newbie section that this should be the first thing I learned how to do. If I did I would take a picture of this nine watch grow bulb I have and see if it’s compatible. Because this is one of the bulbs I was talking about that does not have a kelvin measurements/chart on it. What’s your opinion on some of the stuff on Instagram? The only reason why I go on YouTube and on these other places for information is because of the videos in the pictures in that they come with a narrator. Plus the pictures are big. I’m not saying I’m going to follow what they do on these other channels but it’s at least something to go by. Once I learn how to upload a picture I am going to take a screenshot of one of these Teks that’s full of abbreviations. When I try to read directions where there’s more abbreviations and there are words I have no clue what they’re telling me to do. I’m grateful for the glossary that has been given to me but none of the abbreviations are on there. It has been very helpful for other words though. I appreciate all your responses and your patience with me. I will get this done. Hopefully I can get better and better at it over the next several years.

A double post is when you post a comment im a thread and then post another comment underneath it instead of editing your original post to include updates, new questions/comments etc.

Ahhhhhhh I see. I get it now. Now that makes more sense. However, do you see the amount of shit I keep spewing and whining and complaining about and the amount of questions I’m asking? Are you telling me I should just keep adding all those all in one box? LOL ...Or just use better judgment and try to consolidate a little better? Thank you

Sorry, no opinion on Instagram I only use it to look at funny dog and cat pics. Most of the stuff on Reddit and YouTube is not great. For the bulb I would look for a T2 Spiral CFL with around 1000 Lumens. I can't speak to the diode bulbs and that one looks expensive. There is a thread going on right now and people are talking about YouTube Channels that are myco related. Your favorite myco youtube channel?
