Damn that's a cool device. And that's a very high content for cubensis or any psilocybe isn't it?

I have a few blobby aborts right now..I think they are a result of a heavy post harvest misting as they started after that.

Whoa... this is a really cool thing to be looking into. Is that the Q machine or whatever?

A quick search for abort potency shows most of the exact matches are 20+ years old, there's not much in the last 8 years.

IMO you got yourself one hell of a post topic here. I know there are some other members with this device who would probably be willing to let some tubs run long and check it out.

Glad someone is running those numbers! I asked about this over the summer and Pasty yelled at me lol. I've always heard tales of super potent aborts, even before cultivating when I was purely a consumer, but I'd never seen any actual data beyond "I ate some and tripped really hard" so thanks for having the curiosity and the means to test!

I don't like to yell at people but my point in that case likely was, and still is while there might be a higher initial concentration of actives at pin stage, the fruits still continue to produce more as they age. Growing an entire tub to completion will always net more total actives produced even if the concentration per shroom is lower by weight.

The reason this annoys me is the message is usually "don't worry about the entire tub aborting, aborts are more potent. People should be making their fruits abort so they are stronger." This consolation prize way of thinking will not make your grow better and you will in the end harvest less actives total. I saw noobs trying to abort their tubs intentionally on some platforms.

For me personally I didn't even look twice at my aborts. If some fell on the ground they were swept into the trash. I had no time to worry about them cause I had bigger fruits that needed to be dealt with.

I don't really see how trying to encourage people/myself to intentionally grow aborts is what's happening here,  I'm certainly not trying to do that. My curiosity then and now is purely are aborts more potent by weight than a healthy fruit, and I guess more broadly, what does the alkaloid production timeline look like. I just crave the information Pasteman. I know sticking my hand in boiling water is gonna cause pain, that doesn't mean I'm looking to do it. I guess I haven't been around long enough to see people encouraging noobs to have tubs abort, so I see where you're coming from on that angle. And it's all love Pasty, I have lots of respect for you, I'm not trying to be combative.

I've only seen the concept suggested in theory (eg. What if I didn't have to wait for the tub to finish and just harvested aborts?) but not anyone suggesting noobs to do it. Seems like one of those things that might be useful to new and/or small scale growers who want something out of a failing project while waiting for the next attempt, but can be safely ignored by those with more fruits in the hocks.

Given the current anecdata, I wonder if psilocybin develops at a logarithmic rate: A good chunk of it developing in the early stages, with a more gradual increase as it reaches maturity. May be worth a test run at some point.

Aborts probably are more potent gram for gram. I will say this place is a damn good resource and you won't see a lot of bad advice here. Reddit on the other hand :facepalm: I guess I just see an abort as a failed mushroom. I can't feel good about it :lol:

Crazy.  The strongest I've ever read on my colometer was 24mg/g.  Which is the highest on the chart.

It was Subtropicalis.

My strongest cube was 16.5mg/g. Non pe

The pe tested at 14mg


Is there any chance that you made a mistake in the process? When you make your test sample for blanking the device.

do you heat that up in the water bath like you do the actual test sample?

Just curious

That's what the instructions say. And what I did for a while. But then I got tired of it and just ran the blank without heating it up. didn't see much of a difference.


I'd love to see the exact same test replicated at least one more time for confirmation..



It always makes me wonder. Are there cubes out there that test that high? on a consistent basis?

I always figured cubes max out between 12 and 15mg.  This has at least been my experience over the past year or so since Ive had the device.

I think I probably done 38 test. And my  average is 10 to 12mg for cubes..

I'm going to have to grow more Exotics to test but so far the only thing that's gotten me 21 mg or higher was an exotic. (Subtrops)

So I tested the normal fruits and they were stronger than aborts. In fact I have to reduce the sample size so it can be measured.



And the test will be performed when the test materials show up in a few days.

These are incredibly strong. I've been working with this variant for 2.5 years. This is F6.

Here's the sample before heat bath.
