Is this starting to look contaminated in the bottom right?

That's from a few years ago. Unfortunately I cant operate at that capacity anymore. I will only be microgrowing these days.

Yeah that looks iffy at the bottom for sure but I've seen plenty of worse looking oats kick out several flushes. If you are daring, spawn it.

I used to grow oysters in a tent like that, worked really good. For high-FAE species it's practical. Also worked really good with cuttings etc, they didn't mold but didn't dry out either.

I need more autoclavable polycarbonate 90mm petri dishes!  Amazon is out of the ones I like (Viabooth), unless I want to buy a 500 pack, and I don't need that many.

Is anyone able to share a different, reliable source? 

I really don't want to use single use petri's, and glass is too pricey. I suppose I could suck it up and just get the 500 - and give away/sell some?  But I want to KIS (keep it simple).




Here ya go bud. 

Theve got 20 packs. 

https://microppose.com/collections/petri-dishes

https://mycologysimplified.com/products/autoclavable-reusable-pp5-petri-dishes


There's a couple other online sources just search for your keywords on Google and you can find them.



Ps.

If you did get the bulk pack. just store them away..

you'll end up using them eventually.

It doesn't take long for those plates to get all cut up and scratched on the bottom from your scalpel.

After many many uses you may end up wanting to throw them away and wanting some in better condition.  in my opinion it's never any harm to have extra plates stored away.

I personally like to have at least a hundred on hand to work with. And 50-100 stored away.  To guarantee I don't run out  anytime im expanding 5-10 plates  at a time. Which is all the time for me.

Plus i Hate to see a contaminated plate that needs to be transferred and not have anything to transfer it to.

Recent grow of Jedi mind fuck. Was a good grow from 2 shoeboxes got about 80 dry grams. I haven't had a chance to try them yet I've always been to busy but gave some to a friend he ate 3 grams last night I said he had barely any effect. I dried them with a cheap Amazon dehydrator until cracker dry right after picking them. He is on an SSRI and I wonder if that is what happened or is it possible to just grow very impotent shrooms? All my past grows have definitely produced mushrooms that got me and others tripping.

For sure an SSRI I will absolutely have an effect on whether or not a person trips. You've got to be off of those things for at least a couple weeks I believe to experience the full effects of psychedelics.

In the meantime they'll be basically as you described dull to pretty much nothing.


However there is a chance it could just also be your  genetics and they just aren't potent in general. You'll have to test them yourself to find out.

Ya I'll give them a taste soon. Is potency mostly dictated by genetics or could I have done something wrong in the growing/drying of them?

All of the above.

And folks can trip on SSRIs, but it does have cross tolerance with the 5ht2a receptor.  It also can change the character of the trip quite a bit ime.

So expectations have to be let go of.  Which is good practice generally, but especially when we trip and most especially when tripping with other chemicals in our system.

Can't step in the same river twice.

What can go wrong in the growing process that will affect potency?

It's less about wrong, and more like, mushrooms are living beings that aren't separate from their environment.  So it's hard to put a tidy pin on.

But as an example, later flushes of some pans seem to be much less potent on average.  This could be due to depletion of nutrients that they need to make psilocybin, or it could just be because the organism is nearing the end of its life cycle so it's prioritizing other processes.

It's always nurture and nature.  We aren't separate from our environment and neither are our mushrooms.

Honestly though the largest factor is probably the genetics of your mushrooms, and the fact that your friend was on an SSRI.

But we don't know everything, and environment is going to play a role in how genetics express.  But because we don't know everything it's not something I can point toward and say this is what you need to change.

Thank you. I got the genetics as a LC from somewhere that I've purchased from before and had more potent grows. I did let this grow get into late 5 and 6th flushes that only produced 2 or 3 big fruits. Kind of a bummer though it was one of my most successful grows as far as yield, only to be maybe left with bunk shrooms.

Well let me reverse that, the biggest factor is probably the fact that your friend was on an ssri. But if you would have fed him 3g of penis envy he likely would have noticed.

Don't assume that your mushrooms are bunk based off of your friends cross tolerance in other words.

When I was on SSRIs I would generally eat 5g of b+ and still be mostly functional.  Prior to starting them, an eighth was about equivalent.

Edit:  and sorry to try to elaborate, the SSRI is the largest factor.  I think I muddied the water, but my point was your friend probably would have tripped if they would have taken a larger dose or you would have fed them stronger genetics like penis envy.

I understand ya man and I appreciate your time responding to me.

His GF ate 1 G and felt not much either. So probably a combination of low potency mushrooms and his SSRI.

I wonder if the cheap dehydrator I have gets too hot?

I've got some ochra genetics on order will try going them next!

I imagine the dehydrator is fine.  Unless it's pushing over 200f.
