 A curiously avoided subject!!!

I'd like to get a discussion going on something I have not heard too much about, and that is the cranberry juice extraction technique from PF cakes-I have a few questions and maybe some of you do too; feel free to post questions and answers as well...anyway, does anyone know what strain to get from Psilocybe Fanaticus (PF, Hawaiian, Mazatec) for the best turnout using only this technique? (No fruiting, just colonization and then extraction)-Also, once the juice is made, how long can it keep potent/usable and should it be refrigerated or kept at room temperature? Thanks y'all...

why are you so curious about why that subject is avoided? My guess would be that it is avoided because the cranberry cake extraction slime juice probably won't taste very good and it is not as productive or as rewarding as growing out the mushroom bodies. If you cannot do this I suggest you go pick them in their natural habitat it is not nearly as hard as you might think and you can get much larger amounts with relatively less work.

Yes, there is a reason not many talk about the cranberry extraction: because it dosen't work. well it works at about 1/10 the potency. id say youd need to waste 4 pint cakes to get the buzz youd get off of mushrooms from one cake. from my experience i'v never felt anything. you might as well just go figure out how to fruit the cakes cause the cranberry stuff just dosen't work. peace.

Alright fellas, this is what I was hoping this wouldn't turn into-a discussion on whether or not TO use this method-I have used it many times and it works-I have also grown fruit...after consuming both, I've found that on average, one jar in some juice is about equal in potency to an eighth of dried mushrooms, since I have been using 12 oz Ball jars. For reasons I will not get into, I am unable to grow fruit, only to colonize jars for extraction. Now what I mainly need to know is, how long can the juice be kept for, and where best-room temp or fridge? Thanks to anyone who can help...

no way 1 pint is equal to an eighth dried pftek. I did 5 jars and it woul be comparable to 2 grams. Which is incredibly wasteful. The cakes dont even start to make much psilocybin until after the pin form. Best bet would be to let the cake pin invitro before you do it........... or just to grow fruits dur
No clue how long it lasts. Id assume it would be ok for a few days. I dont think i would let it sit very long.
