Condensation is good thing.  Practice LITFA, I know its hard but these things don't actually need much intervention from us, they've been doing their things millions of years longer with out it

I was a little late finding some patches this season and it looks like recent rain has pummeled some of the fruits, they have sporulated and some may have even been snacked on by some slugs.

Are these too far gone?

Not to butt in, but to piggy back on "trying stuff", this is 100% how I learn best. Even if someone tells me it will fail, if it's not too much of a loss to see it for myself, I'm not against doing it anyway just for learning purposes. Knowing =/= understanding. 🤣


A big part of the fun of growing for me is just trying new ideas to see how they work out. Obviously very risky to "experiment" on big spawn to substrate grows because any mistake gets multiplied tenfold in the final outcome. But trying new things on small experiments is probably how all the good ideas came about.

My go to, bullet-proof, super simple cloning technique that allowed me to bypass multiple agar transfers came from a silly experiment that works pretty much every time.

The thing is to try NEW ideas, not old ideas that have been recycled by every new grower who sits at the table; or even new ideas that don't contradict physics, chemistry, or fungal biology.  Most "experiments" fall under those three categories, it's quite rare that folks attempt new techniques that are worth pursuing. I'm sure most of you reading this already have a few examples come to mind.

Those folks who do push the envelope with novel ideas or approaches are the one's who eventually become TC's, if they aren't already.

Even when folks run the same old stuff, at least those experiences are autodidactic in nature, because god knows how they hate listening to us "gatekeepers". :lol:

Some people just always need to reinvent the wheel making method every time...

Some people just try to perfect the wheel making tek that works the best...

I think the first might be more fun at the moment, but the second is more productive use of time over all.

As a hobbyist, not at all interested in big "commercial" level production, I've found that it's critical to become proficient at the well tested techniques that eliminate or at least minimize the contamination issues (agar transfers, SAB, grain prep, sterilizing, moisture content, etc.) which is at the heart of what frustrates most new growers. You gotta learn how to clean up spores and clones so they can colonize jars without contamination. That is an absolute. Without that skill you are facing a lot of frustration.

With that knowledge, compared to other gourmet varieties, cubes are definitely one of the easier, if not the easiest to grow.

Again, speaking as strictly a hobbyist who could care less about BE, big spawn > substrate grows, and production efficiency, what's fun is trying to improve a system that works for me which, in many cases, is quite different from the grower that wants big monotubs with dense canopies stacked from floor to ceiling.

There's a difference between trying new ideas out vs. cutting corners out of laziness or just trying to avoid extra steps/work/time because you don't want to read, learn and follow the "rules."

When I designed and assembled my off-grid solar for my house 1.5yrs ago, I did not know what I was doing at all. I found a great solar forum with helpful people who didn't mind answering stupid questions from people that didn't know enough to form questions.

By studying the forum for 2 months, I made damn sure I knew how to perform each step in the installation even before I bought my first component. As 10k and my life were at stake. I did not stray from the tek. I did not try stuff. I also did not walk away with a deep understanding of what I just did. I could do it again with more reading and referring to notes but I didn't really learn anything, I just performed steps.

For some, it's enough to read about others' experiences.
Others need to prove concepts to themselves in order to learn. I think I need both.

Imagine a scenario where you could wire your solar panels incorrectly but still get 1/10 the output. You did this contrary to advice from the seasoned solar enthusiasts. You then posted that despite their invested concern in your approach, for obvious reasons, your approach still "worked", the uncle bens of electrical wiring.

Then other folks become militantly pro bad wiring and clutter the forum with all sorts of accusations re gatekeeping and conspiracy theories re how wiring works and if it's even necessary, which ultimately forms a sub community of folks who resent anyone who stiffle creativity with Maxwell's equations and wiring diagrams, which are clearly made up and unnecessary. The wider community is simply protecting the creators of the wiring diagrams becausetheir egos are tied to the perceived accuracy of those drawings.

If you need just a little bit for yourself I have some left :pm: (about 2 yrs old). I messed with it a few times in my agar recipe but I didn't notice much effect, iirc.

Got a strain question...

Was going to purchase some albino Tidalwave swabs for a breeding project, but I happened to find out my "Stormtrooper" swab I got a few months back is actually an albino TW selection.  Tried to look up info on whether it's a true albino or some sort of TAT or APE cross, but the person who did the iso for stormtrooper is no longer with us (rip) and it seems all their socials/site data is gone.

Anyone know if ST is a true TW albino or was it mixed with something to make it albino?
