    #5407485 - 03/16/06 09:17 AM (17 years, 10 months ago)

ok, so ive been on the shroomery for a while, so now i want to start growing my own friends. i have absolutely no clue as to how i should grow them. i need somebody to walk me through it. what do i need to buy in advance?  about how much will it cost? can i grow it very low-key? i need a  long time grower to help me out with my new psychedelic garden. :shroomer:

if you are growing just for yourself and friends (ie you don't plan on selling) expect to pay maybe $100 - $200 and start by reading up on the PF tech. 

If you are planning on bulk growing, well maybe you can give ME some advice, since I can't help you there :smile:

You'd be amazed at how much information you can find in the FAQ here.
-> http://www.shroomery.org/forums/faq2.php

Feel free to ask questions here and all, but always check out the FAQ before you do since you're not the first person getting started with this hobby :smile: There aren't very many questions that haven't already been asked and documented.

:smirk:, you can boil your own water and use that, theres 2 bux less. im sure you have a light hanging around. you can use damp paper towls theres 6 bucks less. if you dont want to use a submergable heater, you can use a heating pad with the tub elevated so theres no fires or it doesnt get to hot. theres what 10-15 bucks, thats 5 less.you dont noeed a coffe grinder, just use a blender or something that will turn it into powder.you can use a pot to sterilize the jars, theres what, 30 less for a pressure cooker, or you can use the cooler tek. it would work just as good. anyhoo, good luck. its all about a buget.

if you want to pay for ease, here's one example:
$30 for mycobags + $10 shipping
$15 for spore syringe + $5 shipping
$25 for hpoo ready to go + $15 shipping
=$100
+ misc items such as verm, coir, mister, rubbermade totes, peroxide, etc.

yeah but for the extera 50 bux all this in the long run will be way better..a  PC  IMO is very nessasary..why take a the risk of steam steralizing or whatever when a little fuck up could cost u all your jars? thats 15 for your syringe TIME and all your substrate maby 5 bux for that..

miss moonunit,
first off, i just want to say-what an awesome friggin user name, and what an awesome picture.....
i fucking love frank zappa (stars bless his soul)
and i hardly see anyone these days who does.....

AND, i'm not an expert yet, i'm still in the process of my first grow---but, if you need ANY help with anything, feel free to PM me, and i'll do my best to try and answer it.....

In my opinion, i would skip the whole PF tek, and move up to Wild Bird seed, for a few reasons-
-you'll end up going to WBS anyways (or some other tek that requires larger jars)
-it takes alot less time to do.....I did PF tek, and my jars are still colonizing, and i tried WBS and those jars are about 75% colonized in 6 days. so they'll surpass my other jars.....
-it's alot easier to find WBS then organic brown Rice flour and Vermiculite.....

but, i think, all in all, the total of all my materials needed probably came out close to $300.
but, i think it's worth having a big PC, good jars, big tubs, a quality tank heater......i think it's made my experience alot easier.....plus, great deals for spore syringes from sponsers that start with an R *ahem* give you 7 syringes of 6 different strains for like $60, also is pretty awesome

If you have the money to invest, i suggest you do it....it's well worth the satisfaction and lack of frustration.

but again, us girls gotta stick together around here......so PM me anytime.

be good humans. <3<3<3
