Now to look up resources on how to vacuum seal glass jars!

I was using a hand pump and adapters for jars, but this thing is so much easier for about the same price.

Apologize for the self quote:
Also, if you heat a jar full of dry mush with the two piece lid loose in the oven and then close the lid tight. When it cools you have a pretty nice dry vacuum.

Don't bake it like a pizza, just whatever the lowest setting on the oven is will work.

I put a cardboard riser on the top shelf of my dehydrator for the last 30 minutes for the jars, lids and rings. Hot mushrooms get weighed out and put into hot jars, sealed while toasty, either 14 or 28 grams per jar.
I hear them pop when the air cools and I only open them once.
Works for my small scale grows.

I keep the intact fruits in mason jars with desiccant packs. When I want to make chocolates I grind 14 grams and dose at 1 gram per, I will be moving up to 1.25 due to peer pressure.
The chocolates are stored in the freezer. I haven’t noticed a drop in potency. The trees still walk with me.
All my jars have desiccants and humidity indicators. 
The skeletons indicate which jars to be respectful to.

Hahaha, that's just pure gold! The "special" shelve in the house

Is there a consensus on potency from the people who have done miraculix tests? A brief search showed Bigworm measured 34 mg per dried gram (if I understand correctly). Is this regarded as the average for semperviva or do we not know yet? It’d be nice to collect some data in one place on this.

My print originated from Roscoe, not sure if that’s “fast” or “slow” lineage, but is the alleged potency range between the two based on scientific measurements?

Bonus third flush pics in my two boxes. Harvested the second flush in both boxes on July 7, beefpunished and dunked, recased with cactus soil on July 13. I figure harvest in about 7 days, so that keeps to the ~4 week timeline they’ve kept from casing or harvest to harvest. I haven’t been as diligent about misting 2x a day, more like once a day when I remember most days. I think the urge to helicopter parent is fading, lol.

Interestingly, I don’t see many if any aborts with these, and that’s across all 3 flushes x 2 boxes. Not sure if that’s a trait of semperviva, or just something I’m doing right. It seems like if they pin, you’ll get a fruit, although the very last pins won’t get as big. I’ve gotten less than 10 of those teeny pins (as in less than 5 mm) per box per harvest. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

Millet, thicker sub:


Rye, thinner sub. My camera didn’t pick up the correct color across all the pics, but they really are that beautiful dark mahogany color irl. I think it’s the darkest I’ve seen them turn so far.

I have a lot of hobbies too, I get it.   Looking forward to your results! Do we have the same lineage?
