Best flush i've had yet.
Ecuador on popcorn. Cased with 50/50 with a bit of gound oyster shells thrown in.
It was around 75g dry, it was the 2nd flush.

I think that pinset needs some serious help. I count only 2 shrooms there!
It's fantastic, good job.

that's a nice flush, what do you do between flushes to rehydrate the casing?

it starts around 3/4 of an inch, but i keep scratching and adding (btwn flushes), so its probably like 2 inches deep when that pic was taken.

I only tried hpoo once last summer, but it was too wet.
I think i got lucky with this culture.
Its extremely aggressive (colonized 1l jars in under a week with <1ml og liq inoc), prolific fruiter, and they're potent as hell!

That really sucks man. I can get thousands of pounds of crap if i need it... I just don't Interestingly enough, there is a horse stable in the middle of my city, but the police horses are kept there so i'm wary.
I'm going to buy a 25kg bag of millet in a few weeks to experiment with.

This maybe a dumb question but are you talking about popped pop-corn or pop-corn kernals or cracked corn? Also did you use a spore syringe or a mycelium syringe? That is a freakin awsome flush! I got some karo solution incubating and I would love to your recipe/tek, if you dont mind me asking that is? How much of what ect, ect. Thanks in advance. Great pics!!!

OK, you got it:
PC bulk popcorn kernels with a shitload of water for 45 mins and drain for like ~1 hr.
Add drained popcorn into 1L jars (you can fill it almost to the top cause popcorn breaks apart really easily), and PC for 1 hr. I use tyvek and poyfill, whatever's handy.
(in glove box): Take a colonized SDA plate and cut a few 1 cm2 sections from it and add it to a very small (30ml) jam jar that was presterilized with broken glass in it.
Shake it like hell to bust the shit out of the agar chunks.
use 3 presterilized syringes with water in them already and squirt about 1/3 of it out and draw up the mycelium water from the hole in the lid from the jar (tinfoil above and below the lid while shaking keeps water in and germs out).
In a glove box, squirt like 1/2 ml into however many jars you want.
Incubate. Use 50/50 coco/verm and a quarter sized pile of ground oyster shells to buffer (i buy the chrushed kind and make powder in the coffee grinder). I just add the dry ingredients in a big bowl and boil a huge pot of water. I never measure, only the first time, and go by eye from then on in.
Pour the boiling water on the dry ingredients and stir.
Put in freezer to cool with foil on top.
Break up jars to depth you want.
This is the key to a massively even flush i have learned:
NEVER put any pressure on the casing layer, you want it as loose and airy as possible.
I just sprinkle until its completely covered, DO NOT try to even it out with your hand, this just compacts it and removes all the air pockets.
The mycelium may not all reach the valleys of the casing at once, this is ok and expected.
Just keep SPRINKLING the casing on wherever myc pops up. At some point when it looks extremely even, just sprinkle a little more to cover the whole thing and then pop into fruiting chamber rH90, 23.8C. Constant air exchange from computer fan and humidity from cool mist.
