First Attempt Need Advice

Hello, I use to post on this forum a couple years ago when I use to hunt for mushys in Michigan, but never had any luck. So now I am going to try to grow some personal mushys! I have been reading, and studying the differnt methods, and the PF Tek is the one I wanna try first. I am wondering how safe it is to get spores mailed to you, I am going to go pick up a PC and all the other needed materials around my town. I don't know what company to trust but, Ive seen some spores going for 15-20 dollars from Spore Works are they any good? If any of you expierenced fellas would like to help me out or anything that could be usefull to me pm me. I would like to thank you guys and ill defiently be posting some pictures! I am very excited!

I'll vouch for Sporeworks, I've always bought my spores there, and mycobags.

You could go with Ralphster's and get a free second strain(Strain of the Month).Other sites might have a special thing like this, I've never dealth with them, but any site here I'd say is completely reliable. I've ordered syringes twice, once about a year ago, and again a few months ago. Went fine. Good luck with your grow.

PC=GRAINS!
either save your money and invest after you have a bit of experience; OR, go right to grains. A little bit more attention, a lot more potential.
(i recommend the latter)
be well.

How about the mycogarden 3 in 1 ! I was looking at that and I am thinking of getting B-Plus or Plantasia Mystery for it. It looks very simple and comes with sterilized jars that wont break! That should give me a nice personal amount and then I could even get some tubs and do the tray method? It Incubates, Fruiting, and Drying!

Nevermind on that 3 and 1 mycogarden, I read about it, it was junk what materials would i have to pick up for a Incubater and a Fruiting processes? I already have a fish tank I could use for fruiting, but I would need something to regulate the temperature and a metter to tell me the temp and humidity. I also would like to try the pan or tray method instead of the cakes since I am a newbie. I barly know how to do the tray or pan method do you just dump your jars on the vermiculate mix? sorry if I dont make to much sence I dont have the termanolgy right yet and I smoked to many green spllifs

Package deals are almost always a waste when it comes to pre-sterelized jars and what not. All that stuff is easy to come by and fairly easy to sterelize too. Don't waste your money on kits.
I vote for www.spores101.com . If you enter the code "shroomery" at checkout, you get a free syringe with the purchase of any amount of syringes. I bought one, got one free! + =

I am sorry for asking so many questions . Now how about that method where the mycellium grows on the rice grains, and once it starts spreading in it, you can dump that in anouther P.C. substrate jar to spawn up to 10 of them for 1 jar is that true?!

Hmmm, I'm still too noob to answer that question to be honest . But it sounds reasonable enough, I'm sure that it works, I don't see why it wouldn't.
And don't worry about questions, thats what the forums are here for!
