I have a decent personal stash and was thnking of micro dosing. I take an SSRI. I'd like to come off it at some point. I thnk it's possible mush cud help ease that. Fuck, cubes taste pukeatronic. Imma have to get some capsules at the hippie store downtown. Fucking smelly assed hippies.
Last time I took any mush was from my first grow. I sucked down 1/4oz in tea. Felt the come-up, then it jst disappears cuz the meds block neurotransmitter excitation.

Capsules FTW! I bought a capsule machine a few months ago. Its a bit tedious but I can make 400 x .33 gram capsules at a time.

I have a pseudo problem right now and some of my pins look like that. The clearer indications I've seen are: caps get brown spots that later turn green and slimy (particularly if the caps are damp). Some abort caps will become brown/black and get covered in slime. Some fruits will abort that shouldn't (they are a bigger size than the time at which pins normally abort for those conditions/strain).
I can't confirm what causes mold, but people typically say it's usually caused by unhealthy spawn (bacteria?). I can say that a too-wet substrate isn't guaranteed to cause mold. Sometimes it will just cause the fruit to be too small in the first flush.
That’s trich in your picture. It’s pretty rare to catch it that early when it’s still white. I’m sure by now it’s five times bigger and green.
The shrooms will be fine to eat still.
Just means your spawn was off a little.
Awesome. Thank you! If you don’t mind advising further, how were you able to ID the trick… by the soil in pic 2 or fruits in pic 3, or both? I still pinched & tossed those to the right. Using all others to try to make some blue juice, as they all looked good.

And re: flowhood. That's a bummer, I've been trying to slant the bags to create a bit more vertical space so I'll take that step a bit more seriously, but do you think raising the flowhood is a bad idea? I could stack it on some books to add a few inches, but in that situation the bottom of the bag would be out of the flow obviously. I'd elevate my sealer in this situation as well.
It doesn't really matter if the bottom of the bag is in the flow at all. Only part that matters is the opening and like sandman pointed out, not creating turbulence that could pull contaminated air in.
I have an even smaller hood, only 12" tall. I place my receiving bag on its side and the opening is only an inch or so from the table. I keep my hand under the opening (but not in front of it) to support it while I dump in grains either from a jar or from another bag.
If I'm doing bag to bag xfer I'll cut the spawn bag with sterile scissors about an inch from the colonized grains. It's a lot easier to work with a small bag than trying to dump grains down 12" of bag into another bag.

I don't feel 1 gram. I could probably microdose with it. I usually test with around 3.25ish.
But long-term sobriety or not, I have alkie tolerance. Faddiman had to 2x the dose for his alkie lab subjects.
Interesting. I guess we have vastly different tolerance levels. I microdose .33 grams and still feel something. I have mind blowing trips from 3-5 grams.
I can take 10 grams and feel fuck all. Friend will have the same mushrooms, take 2-3g and be in a pickle for hours. We are also on the same medication, which is not an SSRI.

i only use caps…much less cramping for me, last time, none. what a pleasure. i also like that even with MS grows i can homogenize potancy so I can titrate knowledgeably
i started with a pc o shit 24-cap machine. now I have a 100-count, but i’d rather homogenize 400 and go through probably the same hassle for 4x the inventory..
cheers

Yeah I know people who can take 7g and seem to be about where I get from 1g.
When I tried microdosing I could feel .15 the first couple days.

Trich always starts out as thick white splotches like in your picture. Then it quickly turns green in the middle.
You’ll get familiar with it soon enough, it’s what shows up first 90% of the time when a tub dies or goes bad early.

Is this a real thing? drunks don't get the effects as easily? Are my little buddies actually stronger than I like to imagine? I usually test with 2g or 3g if I have made into a sweet treat.. Maybe I should lay off the sauce and drop to 1g but god DAMN i like the hobo juice!

It's more likely body chemistry - if you have the genes for alcoholism you metabolize it differently which is why it's so addictive IIRC, and I have some of that from my mom's family. However my tolerance to mushrooms is right in the middle of normal - still it's quite reasonable that it would apply to other drugs as well. 
For potency if you need to know absolutes you wanna try them out on volunteers as well, but ultimately you're growing for your own medication so whatever works is what you need.

Freaking out a little bit
So I've just moved places, dug all my old mycology stuff out the cupboard in bags, moved it all, not looked through it yet.
In my new place noticed a funny smell coming from the cupboard where I'd put a bunch of my myc stuff.
Found 3 old liquid culture jars where mold had came through the gas exchange filter and over the lid.
Have I doomed my new place or things with the mold spores? I got my grains in that cupboard, coco etc... shit my lab coat was sitting right on top of the bag with the dirty jars in.
Hadn't spread to anything else like any micropore tape or whatever but still concerning me...

Your house, body, clothes, furnace ducts, all.of the air inside and outside of your house is saturated in mold spores.
Don't worry.

I know that there's always mold spores around, but does it not really matter introducing this kind of mold into the house then and in bigger amounts than there would be normally? It was nasty green shit over the lid and stunk the whole cupboard out.
I've reallyyyy been worrying I'll have a tonne of additional mold spores or like a certain type of mold that will ruin my agar work or anything I try to do in front of the hood. I heard horror stories of trich remaining in people's future grows.
If you definitely think I'm good, then I can sleep.. this shits really stressed me out lol

After ditching rustywhytes because of a lot of potency complaints, I kept this one super nice fruiting culture which always puts out one big shroom to sporulate across the rest of the agar plate, usually "intelligently" crossing Bacteria to do so
Is this common behaviour from the mycelium
It's also fruiting and expanding myc at the same time, also common?
---

I'm also wondering if you guys get this growth alot? It was w nice looking GT plate before spending a prolonged time on the refrigerator
