AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Man... I think the mushroom gods hate me
OK so I had two failed attempts with wbs and asked around for advice. I got it.
So tonight I decide lets give it another try. I spent three hours preparing the jars. I get everything ready to go... its looking great.
I put them all in the PC to sterilize and it seems that I may have a faulty seal. I can see steam escaping from the sides and water builds up around the handle. @%*&!!!!!! AHHHHHHH!
So I did the Foomans method of WBS. How long are these jars of seeds good for? I would hate to have to start this thing all over. I'm taking the PC back to Walmart tomorrow to exchange it
I'm going to go a head and just boil a couple of jars and make liquid cultures with them... i guess i can do that. I hope they will be OK just being boiled in a pot with a lid. What a disappointment
Why is this so difficult for me????

Wait...
If the seal got wet from me cleaning prior to trying to PC... like say 5 minutes before effect it?
Would that keep it from making a proper seal???

A pot with water will do just fine for sterilizing... I don't get why people get all hung up on doing the little things like LC in a PC.
As for your rye jars... yeah you'll need a PC. If I were you, I'd go BRF/verm and spawn it to poo or straw. Easy to do and large results.

Well thats fine and dandy but... I already have a PC. I also have every thing ready for a bulk grow. Sorry but, brown rice flower doesn't appeal to me.
Now.. a moment ago I went to remove my jars out of my PC to put away for storage till i can get another cooker and when I sealed the lid again suddenly it held pressure!!! There may be hope yet
I think I might have just wet the inside ring on accident while cleaning. Should you even clean a pressure cooker? Does it just sterilize its self when you do your thing?

Hhahaha no the entire place is unsterile, your jars become sterile because of bacterial osmosis, where all the bad shit gets sucked--through the glass-- and dirties up your PC.

LOL
No I get that it sterile's its self... Stupid question I know.
Does any actually clean out their pc's?
Also no one answered if they know if I wet the seal while cleaning could have prevented it from working correctly.
I also assume it is ok to use these same prepared jars as well?

Hay teddy
When I first got my 2nd hand PC I gave it a good clean, that was 2 years ago, still good no contams.
My PC leaks sometimes. The seal is old, I make sure the lid heats up with the rest of the pot ( Hot metal expands changes shape of pot, When i use a cold lid on a hot pot it leaks. And when it's time to seal it I give it a little wiggle to make it sit flush then tighten that fucker as much as I can. A little water on the seal wont matter.
Any thing else cursing you?
You doing cakes or casings, what strain?
The mushroom gods love you

what PC did you get? Mine steams up around the handle right before it reaches full pressure. then the pressure indicator pops up and all is good.

reguarding yur PC'er. mine drools out the sides and around the handle until some pressure is created, which properly seals it. it drips for about 5 minutes or so before it seals itself and stops. thats normal. you want to dry the rim of the PC and the top as well as the rubber gasket ring. that will reduce the amount of water that comes out by a little. if the water doesnt stop dripping after like 10 mins., take it back. second, if yur having probs with WBS, i would go with rye berries(rye grain). make sure its organic. i get it at a health food place for $.53 a lb. and it kicks ass. i soak and simmer and it still seaes like less work then WBS. good luck.

OK that makes me feel better. I guess I'm a little anal about cleaning everything. I will stop cleaning that bastard from now on.
To answer your question... I using WBS and plan to spawn to H-poo or Coir. I still haven't decided what to do yet. I'm trying to hide it from the old lady for now.. so I'm paranoid about the H-poo.
I have to strains and still reading and trying to decide which to go with.
I have S.A. and Creeper. Which do you guys suggest?
Thanks for the mushroom god offering... maybe they will bless me tonight
Oh and its a Mirro Pc btw

I have a mirro, the steaming and bubbling is normal. It will seal. Why are you hiding this hobby man? Especially from your family. That's not a very cool thing to do..

Even the seal on the almighty AA will leak if not heated up properly I thought mine was busted for sure! You always want to let the steam blow through the valve for about 5 minutes before you put on the regulator weight. This allows the lid to heat to the same temp as pot and forms the proper seal.
And the mushroom gods definitely love you, they just enjoy seeing us struggle

I can't get h/poo My 2nd grow log is a mono tub of Ban Phang Ka spawned to enriched coir, It went very well, some 9+ inch fruits
As for what strain I have not grown either of them. So i don't want to give you a false recommendation. See what Ralph thinks.
SA http://www.ralphstersspores.com/index_files/Page3016.html
Creeper http://www.ralphstersspores.com/index_files/Page1269.html
Why not do both for some variety with your trips. Mix and Match

Do you have a Link to your grow log UnderNose? I would love to read it.
For now I think I may just go with the SA. I don't want to do both strains right now because of the issues I've had. Two bad batches of wbs.. from over cooking the grain. This time the grain looks great.
So I just want results this time and if i fail once again. Man I hope I don't I have one of the other prints to fall back too. I'm Also making a Karo LC. I may do the creeper in a LC and once my SAs are finished I can move over to creeper

Hey just read your Ban Phang log and what was the reason behind Acadia leaves? Is that to bring up nitrogen content?
Also how was your potency. I maybe going this way.
Yeah I'm doing 6 wbs quart jars multi spore straight from a print.
One quart Jar of LC. I'm going to make another LC tonight for the creeper that way i can just do straight LC Inoculations for the next grow

Erowid DESCRIPTION Acacia is a genus of shrubs and small trees, which produce DMT and 5-MeO-DMT in their bark and leaves
DMT(N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is like 3 steps way from psilocin / psilocybian which is also a tryptamine.

Tryptophan -> tryptamine -> N-methyltryptamine -> N,N-dimethyltryptamine -> Psilocin -> Psilocybin
It was a experiment, I hoped to increase the potency. possably produce a different drug.
Quote:
Sasha Shulgin says :if you put 5meoDMT into the growing media you very possibly would come out with the untested compound 4-hydroxy 5-methoxy DMY
It did increased the speed of growth as did the coffee.
