Thanks for the great info NewbieShroomer. I'm brand new to this forum (as of today) and came across your New Tek info. Great! Let me tell ya, I'm a newbie and this will definately help me out. I just got my first three jars of substrate ready for innoculation last night. I saw a recommendation to let them stand for 1-3 days to see if any growth is seen before any inoculation is done the first few times to make sure that my sterilization methods (following pf tek of course) worked correctly. So far so good. Quick question for ya: I'm interested in ordering some spore syringes as well as a few spore prints. Any recommendations on vendors? Also, where do you normally have the prints sent? To your home address or do you have a PO box? or? Thanks again! (Including a pic of two of my jars....) [image]http://shroomery.org/wwwthreads/files/66897-PFTek_Phase1

Hey Freak! Nice ta meetcha! Yea, I just have to much time on my hands, the porn business is slow right now :) And thank you so much for the kind words, I want to contribute something that will help people get thru some of the problems I Faced, So i created the first materials tek I have ever seen :) As far as letting the jars sit, if you have a pc, I wouldn't worry about it, but if you are boiling, you made a good choice :) I would advise ( as far as vendors go ) Captain Max & Ralphster, Remember, I am Newbie Shroomer and still new at this to, My purchases have been limited. But I went thru both those guys, fast response, great deals and I was stoked :)

I did in fact use the boiling pot method to sterilize the jars. I put in a nice dark shelf to sit and am watching them for any signs of bacteria or growth in the jars. I figure by the time I obtain some spores, if no growth is detected, I should have a good, sterile environment for the little guys to grow. ;) If not, well, it was my first attempt. Did I miss something? Still confused about what your recommendations are as to where to have deliveries sent to? (home/work/PO box?) Thanks!

Freakshow! Dude, I'm Sorry! Listen, have your girl or someone you trust get a p.o. box, have your stuff sent there in their name. Thats what I did, Better safe than sorry!

Hey Mr.!!! I was so busy writing the tek I didn't get to my im's :0( Since I only got the computer for 8 hours a day, and yesterday spent like 5 or 6 writing that tek,,, Didn't get a chance :) But thanks man! For some reason certain people don't like me, but thats cool, I just tell them to ^%$^&^&$ my (*&(*& with their mouth and then (*%*&*& with the broomstick..... It's all good! :0) As for part two,..... Well, response for part one ( above has been shitty ) I have part two all put together in my head.... But I am not changing my writing style, and that seems to be what people would like to see.... BUt if I just gave the facts... What fucking fun would it be to write a tek anyhow??? NONE AT ALL. Thats one reason why there are so few good teks out there now. Because they take a lot of time, and are a bitch to write :) Anyways, unless I get this one posted to a permanent board, ( I still have some updating to do on it, needs tweezers, mouthwash, and a facemask, maybe more...) then I am not going to write any more teks. I have a whole series of teks sketched out with everything! From a way more fun, more detailed FIRST TIMERS guide to cultivation, to Shroom time management teks. But if no-one cares I'm not going to even bother. And the newbies to the market can get the same, stale, force fed teks that have been moldering on the boards for years... Who needs updated material anyway? *LOL!* Hey man, thanks, and take care :)

Although your tek holds a few pointers that aren't in the other teks, I find you annoying. I would much rather take advice from these "boring" teks because they know what they are doing, and have some decent shrooming experience. I do agree that we need a new updated tek with perlite humidification, simple casing, etc. etc. But I don't think you are the one to write it. Also, shrooming isn't a game, so I don't feel the need to read a tek where 50% of it is childish humor. Lastly, I wish I had the money you do to go out and buy all of that crap, but sadly, most of us do not. Sorry.

Well I appreciate your reply!! My tek is for people who want to start who HAVE the money to actually do things more easily than piecemeal. As for the childish humor, LOL! go figure, thats just me! I am sure there are a select few who will enjoy what I have to say, and even find some of it useful. Thanks fer yer time! :0P

why don't you actually GROW some shrooms first before you write a tek. hahahahahahaha!!! hey newbies, this guy hasn't even grown any shrooms yet. he is simply regurgitating information already out there and trying to call it his own. hey newbieshroomer, maybe you should complete the process from innoculation to harvest before you go giving advice. please newbies, listen to the more experienced people in this forum. this guy is a fruitcake! if he had any sense at all he wouldn't be instructing newbies to do ANYTHING but follow pf tek to the letter. get a feel for it, THEN move on to variations on a theme. peace!

Damn Straight! I have yet to grow shrooms... BUT! I own all of the materials I listed, a lot of the tips I had to find for myself. And I Have spent DOZENS of hours just getting the cakes made, and that is what I'm offering you, stuff I have already beeen thru :) And Fellow Newbies, there is not a guide out there that compares to mine when it comes to understanding the how and why of materials. So, don't listen to Xazia, she is just upset cause I rained on her parade, and she would rather talk trash than take care of her three kids. She must be on welfare, since she is always on and doesn't appear to actually have to work. So ignore her, she will no doubt be around spewing hate, but that just keeps this thread at the top :O) As far as my tek goes tho, I have removed a lot of the clutter and added some new stuff since yesterday, If you are brand new, it should help you along a bit. Thanks to all who pm'd me for details since last night. I will send you all updated teks when I get time, I actually have to get back to getting some porno together for work :) Peace!

So dude felt like writing a tek. What's the big deal? I have 3 crops under my belt and am trying casing for the first time. Let him have the fun he seems to be having. It's a bit long winded for my needs but what the heck. As far as a newer cultivator following it and being dissappointed, which I am not saying they would, but they might, it would be thier fault for not taking information from a WIDE VARIETY OF SOURCES. Follow the MMGG or PFTEK once to the letter and then do your own thing is how I did it. And I think the "experts" here would agree with that. But some of the "experts" seem a bit "STIFF-NECKED" to say the least. NewbieShroomer is having fun with his tek so I say "Keep on Tekkin" No harm, No foul! At least in my book.
