Im semi-new to mycology and have read absolutely every grow guide or forum i could find on the internet. I have had only two previous attempts at growing, one with bags and the other with jars, both of which ended up with multi-colored but very pretty contamination. Ive always taken all precautions necessary, so im not quite sure what my mistake(s) may be. furthermore, i also have a large amount of random questions i have yet to find any answer for. If theres anyone out there who would be willing to speak with me and answer my possibly completely fucking stupid questions or maybe even baby me through the process, i would highly appreciate it.
Also, feel free to contact me if it would be easier. My e-mail is dreamsofmacab@aim.com and i also use AIM/Yahoo messenger services under the same name. Don't bother to mail me on yahoo, i have 20 thousand some spam e-mails and never check it.

Noob sarcasm always goes far on these boards.
Spend a few weeks on this board and you won't need to be babied through the process.
Have you read The Mushroom Cultivator?
Methinks you actually have plenty of reading ahead of you.

1st of all this phrase is bullshit. You'd have to have 48 hours in a day to keep up with everything on this site alone.
2nd of all, pick a tek, stick with it until you feel like you could do it blindfolded and still succeed. I would recommend a WBS tek or a rye Tek. I don't recommend pf tek because although it might work, it is just a stepping stone towards other teks. If you have a pressure cooker, why not just skip it right?
3rd....READ READ AND READ some more!
And for god's sake, don't try to make your own tek...
