How did you spend the last 21 days?

I got this used 2x2 ffu off ebay.
 
Super stoked. However.. it has all these wires
  None of them were hooked up to anything properly like someone just plugged random shit together
After troubleshooting with youtube and the help of some shroomy doods I got the bitch hooked up and powered. Second larger however, the motor makes a loud buzzing noise and the fan doesn't spin and if it does it makes this awful grinding sound. As of right now the unit wont blow. Gonna take it apart and clean it. Otherwise the motor might be bad
Good to be back I also harvested a few flushes and tossed more moldy tubs. Fucking mold
..oh ya I tripped really hard last thursday
What yall up too?

Been on discord with all my questions that are easily answered by reading your shoebox thread. Got 7 shoeboxes going now! So glad the forum is back.

Figuring out which of my shroomery bookmarks were cached on the wayback machine 
Also dropped a smaller dose from my first grow since starting back up. Wonderful experience.
How much did you score that ffu for if you don't mind me asking?

That's fucked, all your hopes shattered because of a dishonest vendor.
Can't you do something about it? Like return it? Ebay will back you up I think.

WOW, TerdleMountain, Good for you!
While shroomery.org was being rebuilt, I
A) Found an alternative to Spitball Jedi's WBS tek at https://cdn.preterhuman.net/texts/drugs/nansnook3c/tek/wbs.htm
B) Bought Mosquito Bits https://www.summitchemical.com/mosquito/mosquito-bits/ and got into the habit of watering my houseplants with it so I don't get any fungus gnats this year.
C) Bought more moth traps like these https://www.saferbrand.com/safer-brand-clothes-moth-trap-2-traps-07270 because I saw moths flying in my kitchen in late February/early March and I don't want to run out of traps to nail those bastards (they were a bit slow this time of year so I managed to slap at least one of them out of existence).
D) Achieved 100% colonization of cubes mycelium in WBS jars after inspiration from Professor X and verum subsequentis during the winter months.
E) I cloned 10 WBS jars by watching PhillyGoldenTeacher's G2G tek youtube video at Now I have 10 extra WBS jars of my #1 cubes mycelium. My #1 cubes mycelium is the mycelium that won the speed contest (which of my mycelium cultures would be the first to hit the perimeter of the agar dish ?) back in January or February. I did this on April 13th. This tek worked so well that I completely gave up any further idea of getting LC to work. Instead, I committed to using this tek exclusively to inoculate hydrated, sterilized grain jars with mycelium from now on. This tek uses 1 jar of fully-colonized grain to clone 10 hydrated, sterilized jars of grain with the same mycelium in 14 days. WOW! 1 jar fully-colonized grain spawn to 10 jars grain spawn in 14 days! What more could you want?
The first time I did this, I got so many jars in my Tub-in-Tub inoculation chamber the plastic lid no longer fits on top, so I just threw the left- over part of a flannel sheet that I tore on top.
F) I dumped all my agar dishes on which the mycelium either had contam's or had stalled or was not #1 or #2 in my speed contest
G) Ordered and received slant tubes. I plan to save my #1 cubes mycelium (and maybe #2) to slant tubes using ham loaf's tek in the next week or so.
H) Bought a dozen WIDEMOUTH 1 quart jars to go with the gray plastic Ball jar lids made in Malaysia. I used these for the grain jar clones I mentioned in part E. I highly recommend this tek. The Gray lid is supposed to allow for gas exchange just by loosening the lid slightly, but not so much ventilation that spores & germs will enter. It has worked for me so far (once). I) I made two more 12-qt. mini-monotubs following PhillyGoldenTeacher (tek begins at 0:49) He follows Bod's unmodified shoebox tek. According to him I am ready to flip the lids on the tubs tomorrow, April 22, tomorrow, and introduce fruiting conditions. Wish me luck this time around!
J) I accepted that once in ten new grain jars, a jar might not become fully colonized for some unseen reason. Am I wrong to accept this? (I have a microscope but haven't used it since I was a boy.)
K) Found a sprayer at the dollar store that mists tubs perfectly. It is small and pink, found in the cosmetics aisle, and only costs $1. I will buy another dozen when the dollar store gets more.
L) Got my first covid19 vaccine dose today. YEA!!!!! Will get my second dose in May.

Gearing up for a spot at some markets this summer so been running through everything and culling active grows to make room. Painful process because I just want to ramp up even harder lol. In relation to said spatial issues: a lot of this time went into ripping my almost-fully built second story off to make it a single story/put a roof on. Good times Shroomery being down sucked. Really missed it and all you good people.

missing the forums every damn day- especially after realizing its a nightmare everywhere else
over here it's pretty straight forward- we generally know what works and what doesnt and the facts from the myths- and its not hard to weed out incorrect information.
so for 21 days ive been reading and laughing at at the fact that I was reading 10 blatantly incorrect statements for every 1 accurate one
also Shroomery knows proper banter and kicks... everywhere else seems like a bitchy "who's right" contest. blew my mind!

Red is hot, white is your neutral and green is ground. It might be wired backwards if it is humming but not spinning. Depending on the style of blower it will dead head if wired wrong, some kinds of blowers will not spin. Show more pictures if you can and I am sure we can figure it out. Maybe the capacitor is wired wrong from the dooch on ebay who couldn't get it running.

Pulled my first harvest off of my tiny PF cake and ran through the dehydrator Only came out to 1.75 dry but I split it into a tea with a friend for my first experience It was a lovely light experience with some enhancement of colours and good CEV and introspection once cosied up in the tent for bedtime. Definitely felt my muscles tensing a little as the effects came on and am grateful for all the trip reports that mentioned 'letting go' or 'surrendering' during this moment and I am pleased to have taken a lower dose initially so that if this effect is amplified on larger doses I have practice in accepting the feeling without panic or distress
Got some wood based jars on the go made from oak sawdust and BRF for some Nameko which I've started off and some Psy Cyan which is on agar on the moment too
Also lamenting the absence of the Shroomery for fact checking and Tek checking!

I was surprised about the bad rep shroomery has in some places. Apparently we're a bunch of arrogant know it alls. Think people get their feels hurt by getting called out on bullshit or not getting a pat on the back for growing jars of bacteria.
I spawned a few PE6 shoeboxes in the downtime, all looking pretty happy. Also cloned some oyster tissue, moving towards my first edible grow. The Myc looks awfully like mold so far though.
Glad to be back bois.

Tried doing the Reddit thing and it made me pray for planet killing asteroid. Tried doing the Facebook group and while better it still gave me the same urge.
Got some pretty hilarious hatemail from a Facebook user because allegedly I'm one of these forum assholes, even though I said nothing combative for the most part and tried to be succinct and coherent in explaining things so I just gave up.
Other then that plugging away. Took a break and lots of my cultures didn't survive because I didn't refrigerate them so starting over there. Lady and I are calling it quits so working through how the hell I'm going to restart at my age and keep doing this game at the same time. The idea of an apartment is gruesome as it is hard to explain a few hundred pounds of grains per week and last year during the summer I filled two truck loads of spent substrate bags.

Made 12 jars of oats, sent agar to grain, waiting for it to colonize...
Been drinking 2.5-3.5 grams of tea a couple times a week. Good times :shroom:
I had to use a mega amount of restraint reading all these damn Uncle Ben's and Broke Boi discussions on Reddit. I decided it wasn't worth it based on what I was seeing. 
So glad to have Shroomery back.

Was stuck in a refresh loop every day at work awaiting the return.
Managed to get a couple decent tampanensis prints. Haven't sampled the tamps yet but plan to Saturday.
In between runs so a bunch of clean up and and grain prep/inoculations.
I tried the reddit thing too and it fkn sucks. Nice to see you fellers.

I contacted Aloha for professional cultures.Looked into 100L Chinese autoclaves. Ordered my first AA75X. Paid Taxes for the first time in about 10 years. Foraged some local oysters (I think), with family. Got Fiber Optic install begun. Cut the grass short. Nocced a few dozen bags, and like 80 jars. Saved my Killer Queen mother from gnats. Shed a few pounds of fat. Ate a homegrown salad. Bought a gas powered wood chipper. Got vaccinated with today being round 2 at Noon. Paid off some festival tickets on layaway too. Even ordered a new vape and some extra seeds during the 4/20 sales events. Reorganized some work space.
Focused on doing myc work, being responsible, and staying healthy.
My oyster and King oyster spawn looks decent enough to produce mush. Family been waiting on my gourmets for like 2 years 
I did not care much for Mycotopia nor Reddit. I will not touch Facebook with my personal devices.

I tried to recognize ya'all in Reddit & FB. Lordy what a lot of misinformation! Like the guy recommending sterilizing coir. Either format totally sucks to follow a decent discussion of some tek. I could hardly keep my mouth shut.
I spent the whole time trying to get Autodl-irssi working. 6 hours a day on the PC!
Got APE peeking up through the casing! So nice to see familiar avatars.

Got antsy and joined the discord, argued with someone about sterilizing LC in the microwave who maintained that "its boiling bro, how could it not be sterile", went back to the hermit life and grew a bunch of shrooms.
Biggest achievement was my test tubs of RW clones came up and one of them is a pumper. 2-3g average dry size, solid stems, late spore dropper, and 8oz first flush total per tub.

I'd have a hard time answering that question, things are getting really ground hoggy this end. Honestly weeks slip by in the blink of an eye. It's like one of those montages where footage of one day is made up of chopped up footage from loads of different days. I'm not complaining, it great when I can stay on top my routine, but I've got some addictive tendancies. So if I slip a lot of time can get burnt doing things that aren't great for me. But those slips are getting rarer and shorter. One step at a time.

meanwhile this asshole hasnt responded to my inquires about this unit

I guess you didn't poast at all then. They're good people over there. Very welcoming and helpful once you find out how to navigate through the site. It is aggravating getting started tho.

For the past 21 days, I :
1) Missed the hell out of you guys!
2) Past my 1 year of mark of non-stop growing. I have grown off and on before - but from April 3, 2020 on, I had something on agar, grain or spawn continuously!
3) Found out that Purple Mystics don't drop spores. Who knew? Now I'll have to read up on swab teks.
4) And grew out my first set of blobs from my Tribe mystery print. Still have no idea of what these are:

Mush Love!

I got on the discord and found out that there's some pretty graphic stuff posted in the general discussion that seriously fucked with my psyche so I bailed that place. Went to Reddit and found out that there's a couple cool growers out there but that most of them are idiots that think we're a bunch of arrogant know it alls while they're doing that Uncle Bens nonsense. I checked out a couple other forums but just didn't get the same vibe that I do from this place. Besides, its the people here that I've developed a rapport with that make this place so cool. So in the end I just checked to see if the site was up about twice a day and just did a bunch of Agar work while prepping my beehives for the season and got some Lemon OGs for my outdoor weed patch this year.

So glad shroomery is back, I went to reddit in the meantime, got a bunk tamp and ATL#7 print. (I think the ATL is really just printer-printed on paper, but I put the paper to agar, who knows, maybe I am just stupid).
So I played around with agar a lot, threw two BRF cakes away due to trich and mold, waiting on 3 more jars to consolidate and also soaked some seeds in water, cuz I need a couple "Tomatoes" as houseplants.

Welcome back, guys!

I tried to hang out a bit at mycotopia but I can't really handle it, so much knowledge on the site but so little of it actuay being used. The cultivation area seemed to be the beginner section.

I grew a bunch of mushrooms.

I also screwed around with agar recipes because my plates were all looking weak and shitty. Now I’m not sure whether I ended up with a better recipe or just made enough transfers to clean up what was stubborn contamination.

I started breeding fish, grew some trich on sawdust, and did a little mushroom stuff. Also tried mycotopia and Reddit and just about had a stroke from all that, although I did get a leucistic red boy print off Reddit.

I only said anything because several of the reviews of that particular item were complaining of air leaks and rivets popping off before first use. Everyone's entitled to make their own choices without calling people retarded...

i did read that someone added some prefilters to the back because the fan was more powerful than advertised and it cause irregular flow but adding the filters solved the 'issue'.
im excited to test one of these things even if it is made in china or whatever because if they turn out to be as reliable as the larger ffu's that people use then id be a happy customer.
during the break i chatted with some fb folks that use 2x4 stacks from the same company as the new one i got and they have canopies to prove they work

Blasted the last of my mush and dmt.
Tried reddit, mycotopia, and the worst dmt world. I'm all for trying stuff out and experimenting but it was painful.
Started running quite a few oyster blocks and scaling up gourmets pretty much not actives. Got the garden prepped and a few straw beds ready.

Do you just use it like a normal hood or are you using it to clean the air in a clean room? I had to look up FFU, haven't seen them on here before. Curious how it works out when you get the new one! Mostly I've just seen the homemade hoods on here and a few used hoods that people have gotten on ebay.

It's been longer since I failed to check the Shoomery everyday like I did the first two weeks It's been almost a month where I didn't get to get my daily dose. Feelsbad.
But was productive for the most part. I did finally make my first monotubs of PE and they turned out sweet for MS.
Went out a lot and made some new friends which is rare.
Took a whole bunch of PE clones and Arg clones which is gonna be fun to see how it goes.
Also I had accidentally made a Arg+PE hybrid in one of my tubs and it was fucking cool but only took one clone and it got super contaminated to the point where a transfer is impossible. Sad day.
Oh and played a whole lot of Demon Souls and beat that shit. Much frustration to get gud.

it has arrived
 
the only thing that worried me from any of the reviews were the latches being flimsy and/or poorly bolted to the unit.
 
you just gotta be careful when latching them down. like, make sure they are all at almost latched before locking down kinda like tightening the lid on an AA pc that way you dont bend the cheap bolts. everything else is tip top. even came WITH A POWER CORD.
on high it blows out my lighter. on low its still rather strong so ill stack a prefilter and see how it does.
maybe ill name the unit rosetta. because she will teach me to speak in ancient tongues

i barely posted when i first joined but got another mush rush and came back to find shroomery down
i had already innoc'd some BRF and thought "well fuck i hope i remember how to do this..."
jury's still out but jars look alright. starting to move my mindset towards agar. been so goddamn busy working 14hrs a day 5 days a week so i haven't had much energy for growing but i'm really excited to get back into it and i might have a 2 month break coming up soon so i'm gonna try to dive in headfirst to bulk.
godspeed with your new hood

Had a few jars get contam and the myc in one completely chomped down on some black mold and decided to also fruit just after as a sign of domination. Possibly didn't purge the PC long enough, might have to bump it up to 15 mins. Or spore syringes are contam but that doesn't matter now since I'm going to jump into doing agar and see how we go.
Going to get some environmental sampling going to give me an idea of what is growing in this place too to help rule that out as the source of the contam.(leaning towards dodgy MSS).
tl;dr learned a ton in a short amount of time, it's good to see the goods and bads in the flesh after reading about it on the forums/etc for years, makes a lot more sense.
