Great to know about the resistance of actives up to 400ยฐF!
Have you done pasta with the shrooms then? ๐
I was born in Portugal and I live here, in Lisbon.
24 of October
It's getting colder in Portugal. Changed the position of the mushrooms.
Temp now: 25,4 ยฐC or 77 ยฐF

@The Mycologist Thank you for sharing your recipe! I will try it.
I am curious about McKenna's 5G in total darkness although I am wondering my 5G probably wont be as potent as the 5G he would consume.
Today is day 9 of S2B
Quote:

Changed position again due to (1) reading about my lighting not being optimal (5500K) and (2) feeling it is too bright and disrespectful towards life, at least to me it would be. Also because (3) Read about fae being optimal in rooms with air movement - window slightly open, sun indirectly hitting. Feels better.

Feedback is welcome!! Um abraรงo.

Is this lack of FAE?

Please groooooowwwww!!!

Today I saw my first pins, they look like Diglets! Can you see them both with this photo?

I am scared now for lack of humidity!? Why only pinning on the lateral? Hmm...
Mush love indeed! ๐

No matter the potency. 5 gs is gonna be insane.
You might want to work your way there.

I will do a small dosage first just to see how they feel! @The Mycologist
I really hope so! @Bubbaluch
Quote:
- Felt the need to tape the box 3x to reduce the light that gets to the side of the tub.
- Felt the corners were a bit dry so did mist and fan after.


Hey guys!
27 of October (Day 11 of S&B)
Quote:
More pins today. I am thinking about bottom watering because I know I wont have a lot of water from my 1:1 spawn ratio.
Could use some advice on this step!

28 of October (Day 12 of S&B)
Quote:
Some lessons learned: - I saw the substrate shrink and noticed side pins - will use a liner next time.
- These shrooms like it really moist if they pin on the sides better. I am misting more often and fanning right after.
- Yesterday I did bottom water the tiniest amount and then had distress because the water wasn't absorbed after an hour - I decided to dump the free water and ended up flooding a part of the cake doing so.
- A bit dissapointed with the amount that decided to grace me but I am excited to be seeing new pins on a daily basis!
Photos:

This is the one I will clone and take the spores from! How should I go about my next project?

Love and Light!

Day 29 of October (13 days since S&B)
Context: - 1:1 rye2coir shrinkage in fruiting stage
Actions since yesterday: - Bottom watered a tiny amount - Misted heavily and fanned a bit - Turned lid straight, unlatched. I am thinking this model has a lot of FAE already since pinning was happening in the sides not on top. So I turned it down and misted more to increase moisture. So far they seem to be growing daily.
Some more context: - This is what I did out of feel and from what I know and mixed in my head. - This is my first bulk grow, - I would love to have your acknowledgements or critiques, please feel welcome to comment!

Your feedback is always welcome and encouraged! Love and Light

Thereโs no benefit from fanning. Passive air exchange is all you need or want. If you get too much water pooling then wipe it with a paper towel or stop misting sign much.

Day 14 of Spawn-to-Bulk B+ Rye to Coir [Re: Darklodge]

Hi Darklodge!
Thank you for saying something, you warmed up my heart a bit. I am very happy to share this adventure with you!
30 of October - Day 14 of S2B
Quote:
I got a story to tell if you are curious to read it, here it goes:
On 29 October I broke up my 1-year relationship with someone who is very dear to me but I keep gravitating towards other girls and desiring them instead of valuing and focusing on what a good girl I have with me.
So I basically spent the day feeling like a monster who hurt this person I love. Afternoon comes, and my sister is feeling pain under her armpits - she recently got away from a blood type cancer - could be from the treatments - quimio and radio. So we went with her, me and my brother and his GF.
But before I left, I checked the magical shrooms and I decided to remove the side pins and have them as tea before leaving (about 10 grams wet of small pins). I crushed them and squeezed a slice of lemon on top, mixing well. Waited a couple of minutes and boiled some tea with the mushrooms for a couple of minutes and drained. I was in a rush to leave the house and I didn't want to be spotted making the tea.
As I left the house I was already feeling more light and making jokes - even though am heartbroken, I still decided to take this healing medicine. It was tough being in the hospital and facing my mortality head-on under the heightened effects of these entities, I saw how life is short, how what matters most is our hearts, our feelings and nurturing for each other, our love - that looks fade and what matters is someone you are comfortable to spend your time with for that part of your life where you will fade into no-thingness or whatever mysteries lie awaiting us.
My brother and his GF were virgins together, they have this way of looking at a relationship that I, having had multiple partners so far, don't have. My sister never had a boyfriend. The advice I've been getting is from multiple perspectives and confuses me further. I was in pain. I wanted to release. I have a lot of shores to do in my life like everyone else - and sometimes they feel like a mountain to climb - and I just give up and become lazy. So I felt this pain from being unable to work on myself and her living in my house at the time (the GF), and I wanted space and I wanted different looks, different bodies, and different vibes.
But when I miss her it's really tough. I'm not so smart I recognize. I decided when we got back home to remove the underpins of the tub, which are gross and annoying to me. So I flooded the tub and removed the underpins, slightly damaging the substrate (cracked in the middle a bit).
But mushrooms fruiting are very resilient to contams and it seems the flush is coming well even though I manipulated the cake before time to remove the side pins, and then the underpins.
I then, at night, after 5 hours in the hospital and walking home, decided to take the underpins, which I didn't measure, but probably around 15-20g wet, as a tea.
Granted the set and setting I was in, this was not the smartest way to use these medicines. What happened was, I had the most terrible loopy dark trip, feeling about how I was so forever alone now in my room, after living with her for months, sleeping in the same bed. I was now alone staring at the ceiling feeling like I was a monster for hurting someone who was always so caring towards me, I felt really sad and miserable - I had to go to my sister's room to try to sleep - I needed comfort - I was feeling insane. I realized my subconscious, my body, was feeling sad, not only the executive "I" but the whole being was having waves of sadness, I cried like I hadn't, scared my sister a bit, asked for her forgiveness, and texted my now EX telling her how shitting I felt about everything, how miserable I was without her and that I wanted to take her back and take care for her.
This doesn't work now because it's a pattern I've been repeating for the past months. I am displeased. I need to work on myself. I go for short-term pleasures instead. I become miserable. I decide to break up because I cannot be happy by myself and then I resort to all sorts of pleasures to numb myself (games, porn, food, and even helping others becomes a distraction from what I need to do to help myself). So I broke up with her, but now I feel miserable and I recognize the huge heart she has and the immense beauty she has - but I know I will soon revert and forget - I need to change my attitude - I need to change myself.
Confronting death head-on yesterday made me realize I am already dying with each breath I take I get closer to the end of the candle - and I think like I am immortal and I can find someone better suited for me. True. But there are many many variables involved - like - we are both graduating and we are both dependent - we are both in that stage of life together - we can both grow a lot and we are willing - she has many many features I appreciate and recognize as valuable traits for a mother and partner - she is no slut, no bitch, no betrayer - she is serious, caring, nurturing, sensitive, attentive, so many things... but I have a biological urge and I have to learn how to fix my attitude towards myself and the opposite sex.
Anyway, I am sorry for writing so much. I feel like there was more to take out of the trip from yesterday than what I have said here, I feel like I forget too easily. I feel like I need to journal or record myself, to create a manual on how I should live - for myself - my rules. I easily revert back to unhealthy habits and I want to change.
Thank you for being here with me, much appreciated. Much love to you guys, I really wish the best for all - PEACE!


TL-DR: - Broke up with the GF - Filled the tub with water to remove side pins and bottom pins, cracked the cake lightly in the middle; - Had one "bad" trip (10g wet pins tea) taking the sister to the hospital having a faceoff with death at the hospital for 5 hours; - Had a second "bad" trip at night after drinking tea from the removed bottom pins - this was very loopy, dark, and excruciatingly sad (My official first really "Bad trip") - It was enlightening on my mortality though, I learned I need to work on myself; realized the true value of loving and nurturing, beyond looks and desires; - Learned how far I am from being able to be really happy alone; how I do fear death afterward; - Felt like shit from the break-up, had a huge void in my chest, and extreme sadness; - Felt this metaphor of me and her being substrates colonized by each other with time and now, breaking up, it's like I'm reaping apart myself, we are mixed; - Felt like she is willing to die with me and I am wasting that enormous heart of hers for the idea of another set of looks, tits, and ass; - Went to my sister's room asking for support as the trip was unfolding and had a miserable night but had a great moment of profoundness with my sister, brother, and sister the next day. - Next day I went to see my ex and we cuddled and were together. I don't know if this is going to work anymore. I hugged her on the way out and felt sad for leaving her there, but she doesn't want to come to my place yet because I broke up, makes sense. I wouldn't go back either. And to be honest I feel uneasy about keeping the relationship going but I am scared of being alone and loved as she loves me.
People have asked me, do you love her? And I cannot answer, I don't know what love is. I can be loving, and caring towards her but what is love? Of course, I love her, but I love life, I love the universe, how can my love be for one person only!? Mixed thoughts, confusing thoughts influenced by hormones. Man... I'm a mess. Anyway... shroom success!
Potency is there, I will say something when I try a normal dosage instead of a low one. But these low dosages I had were pretty strong, I'm happy. I wanted to have fun though with visuals and stuff, but that is not the point of these medicines I realize. Anyway... I've said enough.
Much love to you! I hope we all heal and live better lives.

Regarding the mushies: - Been pumping the lid (opening and closing the lid slightly repetitively) when I go to my room or get out of it; - I have misted lightly as well; - The water from filling the tub yesterday (to remove the bottom pins) seemed to help - the mushrooms look bigger and more vigorous (maybe has to do with being a 1:1 substrate as well) nothing bad happened so far;


Much love

Besides being a "B+" P. Cubensis, is there something else you can tell me about them from the way they look?
