i have a few question as i am a firs time shroom grower. keep in mind i am in the US so i have to get a spore syringe. i also want to use a mycobag because it seems to be the cheapest and easiest way to grow. i got a few links and need an opinion if they are good or not.
the syringe- http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...ssPageName=WDVW the mycobag- http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...ssPageName=WDVW
so my main question are: 1. what is the best strain b+, Golden Teacher, Blue Meanie, or alacabenzi? 2. what aprox. temperature (F) should the shrooms grow in?
thanx guys i apperciate your help

1.) Don't buy spores off ebay. I'd suggest picking one of the shroomery sponsors here and ordering spores from them. All reliable, good service.
2) You aren't going to ask questions like this the each and every stage of your first grow, are you? Come on, all this information is in the cultivation guides and teks on this very website. Most of us had to learn this way, why should you get special treatment?

wouldn't ask every stage just wanted some help in the beginning. mostly i just wanted to know about the strains. if some can answer my question about "what is the best strain b+, Golden Teacher, Blue Meanie, or alacabenzi?". like which is most potent. that's all i need.

A cub is a cub.Once you know a cub.
B+,Golden Teacher,Treasure Coast,Gulf Coast those are some good ones to start with.
Personally I don't like BRF.I sub statute rye grass seed and millit.Use a coffee grinder to make my on.
Good Luck And Welcome to the Shroomery.

read teks, if you try and learn they will help you more. if you don't try to help yourself, they wont help you. I'm new to.. this is the best site for answers. if its one thing i know only buy from shroomery sponsors.

Usually I hear stories of stealing the $ or you can just look and see they over charge. Do a search and read teks and I bet 90% of what you ask can be answered. Happy growing.

i got riped off by spores.com my first time. if you buy from eBay you can get some good stuff. but there is the chance you will get riped off. i stick with a sure thing.

k also i see that some things say it needs dark and about 83 (28C) degrees F. well i am planing to put these in my basement (warmest and dark place in my house) but the temp is only about 70 F (21 C). will the GT's grow? also i have heard, from http://www.thehawkseye.com/ , that b+ will grow in low temps (no info on GT) will it be the same.

does any one know if GT's will grow in 70F temps? cause i once heard it is a "heat loving strain". so my last question before i order: which will grow better in those TEMPS... b+,GT, same, neither will?
