Why not? Fruit them everywhere. I have some tampanesis outside right now.

Do it Thurm! So far, I've fruited everything I've grown outside. Always makes for beautiful mushrooms. It's great to see what a species looks like with unrestricted airflow, sun etc.
With galindoi, it was a big surprise. I thought they were ugly, when actually they were very pretty mushrooms.

Edit: 1000th post!! Woohoo
Spawned my first 'plin' jar to celebrate, 1:4 to 2/3 compost, 1/3 coir.

Last time I ate these was quite a while ago and I think I took about 2g. (Just checked and I took 25g fresh.)Completely changed my life. Yeah I was thinking the same thing but I had pans that 0.5g had me tripping pretty good.
I would never had suggested that dose if I wasn't under the impression he would be able to handle it. He's had my Yeti and scoffed at it. My yeti was pretty damn strong.

For every million pan trips, there's semperviva.

I wouldn't change one semperviva experience for anything else in this world.

Its the only mushroom capable of changing my mind...nothing else does.

They sure are AWESOME

Would you case? Casing options: coarse verm or 50/50+

Deets:

• Agar to grain 3/24 (2 week colonization, 2 week consolidation)
  
• Spawned this tray 4/27
  
• Pic taken 10 days after tray was spawned
  
• 1qt spawn
  
• Grain:Coir 1:2.5
  
• Coir:Water 1:3.5 (by weight)
  
• Fruiting Chamber provided by Dollar Tree (tray in an inverted tote, with a liner )

Seems like verm is leading the race over cactus soil over here, is cloning a cluster something I should do with semps?

Why the hell not

Jiffy straight from the bag doing well with this clone culture

Nice, too bad there's no jiffy mix where I live

I was thinking semps could be like pans, and the word around town is that pans don't do as well from clone, but I trust you milkboy so I'm cloning that cluster, thanks

Im gonna swallow my pride and ask for some hand holding here bc I wanna be sure I can take the gf to semp land this summer.

Ive got less than a myc quart of spawn ready to go to bulk. I was thinking of sending it to an 8 cup tupperware at 1:2 and I have some coarse verm on hand for a casing but could also go get something else if needed.

My main question is is the 8 cup a good idea and what would y'all recommend for an FC if I wanted to stay away from a ziplock? Ive tried it a few times and I have a hard time dialing it in.

I was thinking maybe use a 6qt shoe for a water tub and then just dub it and modifiy gaps for FAE...

I'm probably over thinking this, I know.

I am not the semp master by any means, but just for reference here’s a 6Q shoebox run basically like cubes. Later in the grow I switched to a dub tub, but you need to make sure there are no gaps otherwise they can get crispy with too much airflow. Look on the right side of this grow near the edge and you can see some fried fruits.



The dubbed water tub might be fine but it’s not a requirement. Lower ratios and light compression are preferred. I grow my semps 1:1 or 1:1.5 without a top layer. This grow was uncased except for a very lightly sprinkling of coir before pinning. The tub I’m running now got verm, and we know verm does work.

After casing you want to thoroughly spray the verm. Once fruits form, you want to mist them a couple of times a day.

Patience is key with these, but they honestly don’t require a lot of babying

you might try to eat a small dose and tune in to pick „the one“ for cloning, or just discard what i just said as mumbo jambo.
either way, semperviva for life!

Hmmm, well the weekend is coming up fast and I probably shouldn't leave a stump on that cluster sooo 1+1= you might be on to something
