First of all Hi everyone this is my first post on here. Please tell me if I need anything else. Im gonna be using the PF Tek as my guide mostly.
Jars
Pot for steam sterilization
Vermiculite
Organic Brown Rice Flower
Alcohol
Flame for needle
Tin Foil
Mineral Water? (Ive read about a few different types of water but this seemed best)
Something for holes in lids (Drill w/ 2/32 bit)
Sealable plastic container(s) for terrarium
Perlite for humidity
And of course spore syringes
Do these spores sound good? Ecuador and either a B+ or a Amazon. I'm thinking about the amazon because I read they do better in a litle cooler temps which is what I'll probably be working with.

That thing about vermiculite being banned is bullshit- there was an asbestos scare in the past, but that was confined to one mine. It's still legal. Also, never, ever substitute perlite for vermiculite or vice versa. Very different substances with very different roles in mushroom cultivation.

By grow chamber do you mean where they will fruit, cause I planned on using the container(s) for that.

If you are working with a cool climate a tub in tub incubator is best. you'll need a fish tank heater. hydrogen peroxide too. Don't forget sterile gloves and a glovebox. Oh, and bleach and lysol and tilex too. use Hoffman horticultural vermiculite it's best. Good luck!

never in my life has anyone ever told me that ive only ever heard in from ppl on the OMC, if anyone ever told me that i crap i would ask them why it is a ingredient in nearly all the potting soils they carry?!!? stay away from big chain home improvement stores, typically if they carry verm its the super fine bullshit anyways

Wow, alright. Thanks guys. I think I'll try around some other stores. Apparently they use it in pool construction, a buddy of mine does it for a living, I'll talk to him.
