Very nice work! But i'm having my doughts that flush was almost 10 ounces dry. I've had similar flushes out've the same container that weighed half that much. But still nice work! Don't let me piss in your Cheerios.

I sure hope so. I've heard good things about this strain. I tried some B+ on straight casings and they sucked ass. I even took a dose of 7 grams to try and increase the trip.

I've already tried some EQ on the same horse manure I used for the PR and they were awesome. I'll post a potency report after this weekend.

Thanks for the kudos. You need to read some more of this thread though. I haven't even completed the drying yet. The dry weight has not come in yet.

I didn't trip this weekend for fear of a tolerance buildup. I was tripping on Monday night and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get the full effects by tripping just 4 days later. I have tripped only 4 days apart before, but the dose had to be doubled just to feel anything. I usually wait at least 7 days between trips to keep the dosage low and save on the shrooms.

I will be in full swing this Saturday and post a full report.

Awsome job man, see that weight is just right for dry weight :smile: You can understand why people were skeptical youd retain 5 or more ounces (if it dried to the 14ish).

Hey Augustin, did you forget about this thread? I know I haven't...

We still want to see your trip report... looks so good.

Do you have any details about your setup, like how big the container was, how much spawn you use, h/poo you used and how big the surface area was that you grew on?

I was just skeptical about the 6lbs wet. WOW! That's a whopper of a flush indeed. Fantastic job. That dry weight is dead on for mushrooms of the medium to large scale of size. Very nice indeed brotha! :thumbup: Got any good tips? LOL!

I haven't forgotten about this thread, believe me. I have moved my trip to this Friday, as I'll be watching Tyson fight on Saturday. I will post the results on the trip on Saturday morning.

Give me a couple of hours on the details of the container and my setup. I should have the details posted by this evening. I've got too much work to do to chime in right now.

Thanks people.

huge containers are great until you get a contam and then your screwed.


if you use fully colonized spawn with straight H, that won't be much of a problem.

poo is resistant to contaminants.

Who told you manure is resistant to contaminates?

I think he means colonized horse manure is resistant to contaminates, not straight horse manure. Which I agree with. Once anything is fully colonized with mycelium, the chance of contamination diminishes greatly.

well even then parteurized poo is fairly contam resistant.

i dont understand why suddenly people are saying its not, i seem to have seen a few people stating something along those lines recently.

other than to disable any seeds and kill bugs i hardly see a reason to even pasteurize hpoo. ever see shit piles getting green mold in a field? i grew up on/around farms, and i sure as hell havent.

i only lightly pasteurized mine (if i actually detailed my method i think some people might shit over it haha), to the point where i had a couple little plants try to grow out of one tub while the myc had almost fully colonized it :smile: that was 10 days ago. i've got three tubs of poo goign with three different strains right now, all with my bare-bones pasteurizing method and still not a hint or contams. i found that if i dont fan them a bit while its colonizing it gets a funky smell (at first i left them closed and didnt notice until the first tub stalled--after fanning once a day it resumed growth after three days) but once the myc takes over its not even a worry.

oh and good job on the ass kicking grow :thumbup: i've got a bigass tub i'm going to try this with once my orissa jars are fully colonized.

Thanks for the props on the grow. I like your philosophy on the pasteurization of horse manure. I personally hate doing it. How long do you pasteurize for normally?

Right starseed1066, I feel the same way.

During my unpasteurized poo runs, none of them ever showed a hint of green mold. Unlike straw that hosts trich in an unbelieveably short amount of time even after pasteurizing, poo nearly seems immune. In my experience the only thing you'll encounter is seedlings and various small bugs in your substrate. If that doesn't bother you, why bother pasteurizing? I don't.

i put it in a big pot and set it on the stove. i then fill a smaller pot with water, and heat it till small bubbles start to form and rise on/from the bottom--around 160-170 degrees, if you've got a thermometer. i then add it to the poo (which i keep outside on a screen, so when i bring it in it's cold and wet. you might have to adjust a bit if your poo is warm and or dry already) till the water level is maybe 3/4 the way up the pot. after stirring, the mix ends up around 120 degrees. i then bring more water to a boil, and pour it in the pot and stir it again. this should bring the water to around 150-160. then i let it sit till it's cooled to about 80 degrees, drain it thouroughly (this runoff water can then be used to make PF jars or simmer grain in-- i dunno about the grain but it definitely adds some nutes to the PF method) and mix in dry verm till the water content is right. then i throw the spawn and the poo/verm into my tub, mix it up, and stick it on the shelf.

seems to work well so far :smile:

heh, diver beat me to it. but yeah, i actually decided to not use straw based on diver's reccomendations. and the only reason i pasteurize at all is to kill bugs, and the earthworms that find their way in (my screen is just sitting on sticks and whatnot :laugh:). i dont know if they would, but i dont want any worms that i might miss while picking them out to go eating my mycelium :grin: although i never thought about it, i guess it might be good that i end up with some worm castings in there too.

That figures. I sure could have used this information before I wasted my time pasteurizing my last 3 batches of horse manure. So you guys soak and that's it? How long do you soak for?

Edit:
Oops, you must have been typing when I was. Question answered. Thank you.

Soak for what? To adjust moisture content pre-spawning? There's no need to "soak" so to say, just submerge, break up any remaining nuggets for more even colonization, wring out excess and lay in tubs.

Thanks Diver. I guess there really is nothing to soak (come on, I'm smarter than that). Did I just type that? :grin:
