Wow. Do you have a link? I tried web searching some of that first sentence but for some reason got results about ergot (!) and Cordyceps.
Would be funny if instead of trying in vain to kill fungus gnats people started breeding them.

theres a website called scite.ai thats like a chatgpt for research papers (idk how it works exactly but i get the gist), i've been dinking around with the free trial the last couple days trying to see if I can pry any information that would be appreciated here. a little querying has me hopeful it could be an enzyme reaction from physical damage but yeah, impossible to know without testing and doesnt seem many/any have yet

Fuck. That's heartbreaking.
Though now I'm thinking of the right joke about "Reddit being my favorite peer-reviewed journal."
Seroiusly though, if she'd read this book and followed it she's be free: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27713634#27713634
If you do experiments, use a clone and a control. My sig line link about melatonin is an experiment that's probably the minimum that qualifies as silence.
Wasn't successful (didn't increase potency) but was a successful experiment in that it produced a tiny bit of data that wouldn't be thrown out in a clinical setting. -- Back to the scientist lady. Teach your kids better than this: "my 20 yr old daughter got scared understandably. Well, she called the police. So the police came, and my uncle told them, "My niece is growing drugs." "
And this part is a horribly stupid thing to do, legally, when dealing with cops. So....ESPECIALLY teach your husband better than this "they seemed more interested in our setup and how we did what we did. SO my husband, for 4 hours, taught the DEA how to grow."
 DEA already knows how to grow. They want to know what YOU know to use it against you.

  I'm reading that whole thread. She replies a lot. though she's making mistakes on there, that could be used against her if this turns into a case, and it probably will.
I wonder if they'll offer her a plea deal to go work doing lab work for the DEA. They have a lot of scientists. Sasha was one, until he wrote the best 2 books ever on drug manufacture, written for the public, which included teaching the world to make MDMA and MDA, One of which he invented, the other one was hidden in a dusty paper from nearly a century earlier that almost no one would ever see.
Apparent her day job lab does work for law enforcement too.
Please, all of my shroom fam here, go read "Arrest Proof Yourself." It's a quick read. A few hours.
I put a PDF up here: https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27713634#27713634
Back to Dr. Gnat, I'm wondering how "scientific" she is too, after reading her reply here about gnats: "I am not saying that they increased potency, it could have been other reasons for the increase...but, I am not dismissing the fact that that's possible. But I do know they added a magic that I can't explain. I was trying to work out what that magic was"

oh, waaaaack. that reply is disheartening lol, shit I think I'll still test the Shroom-Shiv-9000 TEKâ„¢ for the hell of it because the concept of the mushies upping their defenses in response to being attacked seems probably to a layman like me

Someone replied to her that electric shocks make shrooms grow bigger, so if anyone is looking for new ways to torture shrooms other than gnats, instead of giving them ideal grow conditions, there's one.
Someone's going to suggest magnets on that thread.
She also said that the grow they busted had bacteria. That invalidates any potency test immediately. Shrooms with bacteria often mature faster. It's an automatic last-ditch effort of the organism (the mycelium in the substrate, the shrooms are just the sex organ) to get spores out in the world before possibly dying.
I know, I know, my sarcasm is stifling innovation.

Nice shrooms.
I have a TENS machine, got it for mild muscle aches when I do a bunch of yard work suddenly after not doing any for the winter, doesn't work for me for that. Does anyone here have first-hand experience of them where they work for pain, or is it hoodoo?
I used all my pic tax credits earlier today. Here's an older one, tall x7x in a 16 quart tub. I used wolf urine to get a height increase of upwards of ~66%:

First flushes in two separate 6qt shoeboxes.. Melmak right and PE "Thrasher" left. 36 grams Melmak and 29 thrasher. Pretty awesome flushes. The PET is not any stronger than my B+, but the Melmak is easily twice as strong. Definitely running that one again.

Tri polar.. yea I agree... Wish I had some more impressive looking fruit in there.. but those mutant JFs kick my ass for real.. 2 grams last week brought a full ego death I was not expecting.. shame they aren't in a full tub. The egg needs more FAE I think also.
