Some Newb Questions
    #5337240 - 02/25/06 07:02 AM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Hey guys, I just joined and was thinking about growing some shrooms, only thing is I'm still not quiet sure about all the necessary steps. For one, is it necessary to get a pressure cooker to sterilize the jars, or can you do it some other way? I am going to be using the PF-Tek for Simple Minds. For my second question, Can I just use the Q-tip method for colonizing the jars? And last but not least, what strains would you say have the best average of potency with also being easy to grow?

if i were you, i would start with bags....you can get them off mycosupply.com a shroomery sponsor and ill hit you up with a better one ...and to colonize you would use a spore syringe...

No harm can come from questioning. "Best" case scenerio: You prove it right without relying on the fact that it is widely accepted. Argument strengthened. "Worst" case scenerio: You realize you might have been wrong. The new answer might or might not be what you want to hear, but it beats defending yourself with bullshit.

Camel, thats not the question, I was wondering if u could use the wipe the Q-Tip down the spore print and then just put inside jars to get them to colonize. And Thanks I'll give a look at the grow bag.

1) Get a spore syringe from a shroomery sponsor. As a new grower, you will most likely fail if you try to do Q-tips unless you have a laminar flow hood or something.

2) Golden Teachers kick ass in my opinion, but B+ is probably more foolproof.

3) If you've read the FAQs, you will know that you can put the jars in a hot water bath instead of pressure cooking, but pressure cooking is much more infallible. Invest in an All-American cooker or sterilizer. eBay has good deals. My All-American sterilizer has been in the family for like 40+ years and works great.

Yeah I just wanted to give it a trial run before I invest, plus don't like getting stuff shipped to my house. If I can found one at a buddy's house or store then Ill buy it. I think I'm gonna get a spore print from the Free Spore Ring Canada, and give that a run. Ill probably just order a 3 pack from some where and give it a run, so back to the drawing board :smile: Thanks


:edit: Hows the potency of the Mexi-cab from FSRC? And I was wondering  if anyone has had any luck with these grain based  Mycobags? are they worth the $20? And the just follow instructions with the syringes?
