I can't find good jar filter materials in my country, but maybe I stumbled on something. I ordered several types of non-woven polyester padding for clothes or bags, and one is very thick and dense, about 3-4 mm, should be 260 g/m2. It stretches when I pull it apart, but it doesn't tear. I'll get around to testing it soon, but does it even look like something that could work?

What is a good grow guide for P.natalensis? Ideally one that highlights the differences between nats and cubes.

The main difference between nats and cubensis is the one you will feel after swallowing.
Just run them like cubes. They are more resilient to contamination and with a more vigorous mycelium, like a active oyster myc. You'll need a fair share of luck to find a culture that won't overlay... after that, just increase the fresh air exchange a notch up relative to a regular cube grow. Best of luck


a tub of snakes might also happen but they are spicy

Sounds too good to be true, how would you describe the visuals compared to cubes? Ive read that they are more intense but with a lower 'body load' does that mean the visuals are strong without feeling like its a struggle to talk to people ?

I take it off at 0, I don’t think it matters really though, I just open when things are hot because I’m impatient

If you put everything at field capacity, there’s no reason to spray after you just made it. That would mean that it wasn’t at field capacity so you had to spray it.

The misting of the top layer is done by those that prep the substrate UNDER field capacity....in theory,  gives the mycelium a direction to grow towards and reduces side /bottom pins.

Congratulations on first s2b you're hard work is almost paid off, now the hard part.... learning to LITFA!

Good grief... I have entirely too many mushrooms and my dehydrator is trying to keep up to the point they are too mature by the time I have room in the dehydrator. Suggestions?
