Does anyone know what varieties of cubensis would have been available to the home grower in the US in the 70's?




I know it's not a cube but Pollock discovered Psilocybe tampanensis in a Florida dairy cow pasture in 1972 from what I have read, and people started growing sclerotium at home soon after that. High Times would advertise mushroom grow kits in the early 70's but I'm not sure what spores were being offered. I was born in 76 but my mom told me about my uncle trying to grow some from a magazine add without any success. He was a frequent visitor to a dairy farm less than a mile from the old homestead though from what I was told by her.

Terrance and his brother released their book on growing cubes in 76'.

Ive always wrapped my plates outta the sab without issue.  At first I didn't know it was a thing we were supposed to do.  And when I found out. it was months later into the hobby. Had already done it many many times over the few months.

So I dont really worry about it.

These were in my cult fridge. I
They are Pan Cyan PR. I have two jars of these and two of TTBVI. The myc looks healthy, but I have a bit if this golden colored liquid at the bottom of the jars. Is this what they call myc piss? I assuming that what it is and my jars are still good to go?

:justno:

mycelium doesnt piss. Metabolites are digestive enzymes.

Typically pooling metabs are a sign of bacteria, but high temps can lead to em too.

So these jars are no good then?

My thought process since the myc looks good is that this is the condensation from being in the fridge, and it just took on the color of the grains. But like I said that was my thinking, and then I figured it could be more related to my question. Hence the reason for asking it.

I’m hoping it does. These are going to be spawned into small take out trays.

I wasnt commenting on the jars ability to recover. Just the term "myc piss"

I asked him if he drained off the liquid before spawning.

Because the brick doesn't always weigh 650g. Its just what its labeled as. This is the reason I don't like coir "recipes".

I use a high-capacity scale and i weigh the brick. the math is as follows:

Brick weight (in grams) X 4.25 = Water volume (in ml)

It generally puts you on the dry side of field capacity but its real easy to add water and a real pita to remove it so its a good starting point.

Echoing the above. I learned to weigh the brick and multiply by 4 - 4.25 real quick. I quickly googled once and got 4.75 or something and my coir was dripping wet the next day. Nothing sucks more than hand squeezing an entire bucket of coir for a monotub lol

I have a question about the Bucket TEK. Why is that, when using the same recipe of 1 gallon of water to 650 grams of coir, the coir sometimes comes out to field capacity when other times it comes out soupy and verm must be added to it to get it to field capacity? Same inputs and same brand of coir.



Coir is actually 2 parts. I dont know what they are called but theres brown crumbly bits that hold water, and theres tan fibrous stringy bits that dont really. Some brands are less consistently processed.
