just introducing myself
    #7582942 - 11/01/07 04:02 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

hi all at the shroomery
thought i'd sign up after lurking for about a month now
im in the UK
(this is all going to sound very newb as ive seen it b4 on a canna site i frequent!!!)
so my story is this i grew up clubbing/raving and dj'ing many years ago
done my fair share of drugs ....but have since opted for a nice quiet life
i'm self sufficient with greenery and wont go picking shrooms as i dont want to be led home by the police!!!
so i thought i may as well have a go at growing my own (every now and again i like a few shrooms for a release and a good laugh)

i have been looking thru the relevant threads and slowly putting all the ideas/thoughts together
with being a grower i already have a sack of coco coir here,so i'm looking down that path ....ive got a fish tank ...heat mat ..perlite
and about 5 rye bags...and spore syringes
ive started one rye bag and a cake tub about 4 wks ago now..the bag is looking better than the cake tub...
ive got equador,mazatapec,cambodian,B+ spores..

well ive introduced myself ...now off to look thru the forum....
but if anyone could point me in the right direction of threads it would be much appreciated
cheers
DV8

thanks again to whiskeyclone,apollyphelion,grandesign,and beneath
and thanks gradesign for the pointer,i have been using the search facility at the top all day...i know this is where most people get pointed first time round
"do the research first"..
one question i will ask though after searching...does the server upload
JPEGS i did read that it converts it to a JPG? ...but i couldn't see JPEG/JPG on the list ..i could see wma and all the others.but not these two...i only have JPEGS...and not too PC friendly,so wouldn't know how to convert them...if anyone could help be much appreciated
thanks
DV8

Yes you can upload jpegs. '.jpg' is just an abbreviated file extension for jpeg format pictures.

why not hunt mushrooms? Its season, you live in a very active hunting region and the hunting forum here rocks.

The Liberty Cap(Psilocybe Semilanceata)


This is what you want to look for.

hi suimush
i do know what your saying about going hunting but ive moved a few years ago and dont really know where to go as i dont know the area
and as my main interest is growing skunk...i'd rather keep myself to myself...IE i never even keep anything on me incase i even get pulled over for having a bulb out on the car lights
better safe than sorry

pics of cobwebs
well i started with a cake and a rye bag and inoculated them 4 weeks ago and i wasn't happy with the smell coming from the cake as it smelt funky and fausty..like fementing wine..so wasn't happy but thought you got to learn by your mistakes(it took me a while to get the temps sorted)
so i crumbled the cake onto coir mixed with perlite in a pyrex bowl and bag to keep it seperate from everything else...and cased with the same...this is where i may have gone wrong (or being too warm)...as i think i ended up with  cobweb!!??looks like it to me as i know nothing
in a way its not a loss really ..just a learning curve as far as im concerned...ive got plenty more :wink:
but the rye bag looked a lot better and after more reading i decided to go with perlite topped with vermiculite...crumbled rye bag(that smelt proper shroomy)cased with coir so fingers crossed  for this one
thanks for looking ...any advice welcome

thanks for the reply BIGSWANG
the layer of coir is no more half inch deep,with a few bits of the crumbled rye bag showing through in some places(not many/much though)
when i looked in earlier for a FAE...it did appear that the myc has started to form ..its still under a black bag ....i only done this on sunday ..so hopefully in a few more days(fingers crossed)

any pointers and help fully appreciated
thanks again BIGSWANG:thumbup:

well i think i'm learning
i've been checking the terrarium since i got home (been 6 hours)
and i'm seeing a definite progression(hopefully!!)
even from the pic i posted yesterday
there are more white patches appearing ...and i did have a small spot of  cobweb:(...but got the h202 on it and could see the difference this time ..catching it early ...it just dissapeared(for good hopefully(sprayed the whole area)
heres a few pics
i'm a bit more confident on this lot
thanks for looking
DV8




so fingers crossed over the next few days

any advice still more than welcome:)(come on i may be a newb but you can only read so much...i thought you could ask for help if you weren't sure?...i only want to go tripping...for a change:mushroom2:)
