Adding beneficial nutrients to popcorn?
    #4305596 - 06/16/05 08:48 PM (18 years, 9 months ago)

Can someone tell me what are some beneficial nutrient additives to add to my popcorn substrate? And whether to add them at simmering stage or the pc stage. I'm doing a simple 50/50 peat/vermiculite casing (no poo or straw spawn)and wondering if anything would help the fruiting/potency problems associated with popcorn.

That is very true. That's one of the reasons WBS is so good.

I've noticed that corn and popcorn dont absorb water well with just a soak...

I simmer till some pop....usually about 20 or so mintues....kind of eyeball it :eyeball:

That's for next time. This experiment only involves straight popcorn as a grain. I'm thinking along the lines of a liquid nutrient that can be added ... ie karo, honey, beer, apple juice, etc. :smile:

well adding a high sugar based liquid is probably not a good idea because to much sugar is not good for mycelium growth plus at the proper time temp in the pc for grains you would carmelize those sugars wich would also be bad

Add Tryptamine HCL!!

That'll really help out the mushies.

tryptamine HCL really doesnt do much, it 'placticizes' a trip amd makes it feel artificial, at least when I tried it.

^Did you just take it with shrooms or something? or were the shrooms grown with tryptamine in the substrate?

this link  might be of some help.
also beer is an interesting idea. contains barley, hops and yeast.
i have used beer soaked cardboard as agar.
i tried beer in L/C once, but didn't have much luck with it.
experimenting is half the fun of this hobby :laugh:

that coffee project looks interesting  :ooo: maybe we'll give this one a try - first though, I'm goin' with some beer. Would'nt the alcohol content need to be removed? Would simmering the popcorn in beer destroy the alcohol?
