BTW, I have extra liberty cap prints, if you are a somewhat active Shroomery participant, and/or have experience with exotics, and/or at least have displayed some interest in exotics, I'll spare a print

One condition, you must post your work here

I have global stamps, and a small handful of prints, so send me a PM if interested. Let's get this thread bumpin'

That's the spirit! I got some spare prints as well, but they are ~2 years old now. Will test a couple on agar and see if viability is still OK.

In my give away I had send out 17 prints, I hope some of those folks will turn up.

I think complexity is a trap here, go for simple subs.

Allow me to say why.

Here are some of my *thoughts* on the subject.

My idea of this species is that both grass and manure is unnecessary to accomplish fruiting. If my attempt is verified, a very simple sub will be documented, without either.

Later we may still find that either helps or promote something relevant, so adding either may still be preferable.


But on the way?

Makin our steps too advanced slows down the process as a whole. Perhaps slowing down the most important repetition, and adding attempts that are less meaningful.

Doing so steals from the agar work, diversity of genetics, adds pasteurization and contam vectors because of added complexity

I believe with this species, we are looking for genetics that respond to the what we normally do. And we need to fish industrially, not with a single line

We don't have a indoor method from A to finish, but we are not reliant on that.

We can:
- run alot of different germination/cultures, looking for outliers, agar pins, mature agar fruits
- run numerous but small subs
- we can dig them down outside in time for season
- we can colonize then indoors, and then take them to colder temperatures, this seems to have triggered pinning with the unverified semi in my thread

Acidity and pH balance are basically the same thing (if not, please enlighten me).


yeah we are kind of on the same page.

"pH measures the total [H+] in a solution and it is a quantitative measurement of acidity. Acidity gives a qualitative indication of the degree of acids present in a solution. As pH value increases, acidity decreases, and vice versa. pH also measures the basicity, not only acidity, pHs of less than 7 indicate acidity, whereas a pH of greater than 7 indicates a base."

pH expresses the degree of acidity and alkalinity as a value.
