Im sorry, i wish i could give you proper advice but this is unfamiliar with me, i would guess you would have to inoculate some grain or brown rice flour/verm jars, how you should i dont know as sterility will be a big issue tansferring it to the latter medium(s)

i assume the growth is mycelium and i am cloning some mushrooms i don't know the strain but from pictures online my assumption is more than likely correct.
i used this tek
http://www.shroomery.org/8512/Cardboard-Cloning-Tek
well again since this is my first experiment i'm not really sure where to go from here hahah sorry for my "newbness" but i'm sure most if not all have been there.

Hi,
I never did this tec and I only cloned once before, which was highly succesful. If you don't hear better advice from someone more experienced with the tek your useing, than you might be able to follow this tek here: http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=2&Number=5874305&fpart=1&PHPSESSID=
And substite the part about adding a mushroom piece by adding a piece of your colonized card board instead.
Or you might be able to add your card board to a small, possibly pint sized amount of pasturized horse poo and spawn that to more poo once colonized.
Your starting out with some high end stuff for a beginer IMHO though.
MAybe learn the PF tek first.
Where did you get this mushroom from? Was it from a store or is it psychedelic?

it's psychedelic...i started out with the cardboard cloning tek because earlier i asked if it was possible to grow mushrooms from the ones you already have and someone redirected me to the link i provided above and to be honest i didnt' expect any growth but what do you know soo now i'm just wondering what is the best/easiest way to go about this...i was wondering would it work if i like soaked some woodchips mix it in wtih a little bit of soil and put the little bit of growth i have in an aquarium or something to let it "fruit" if that'll work?

Thing is, you can't learn what you need to know before your mycelium dies.
That's why everyone is thinking "Aye".

first off i was expecting to fail from the very beginning if you didn't happen to catch that in my other posts. second if you have nothing to add that'll help me then why even post i'm going to fail? does it make you feel better knowing you have some sort of intellectual advantage of some "noob" i mean you do at the moment but shit everyone has to start somewhere so if you don't feel like helping out then gtfoh third i got the sample piece from a mushroom. and the tek said to cut out pieces a little bit above the base and i did and something grew

Lol...easy man. I'm not any high horse at all, I was really trying to help you.
Your story lacks alot of information and I'm actually curious to know more background. I don't know why I care so much but it really is itching me to know where you got a living psychedelic mushroom from to start with.
Did you hunt it? How do you know it's psychedelic if you say you don't know what kind it is? I'm not putting you down I'ld just like to know more to the story.
It's hard to give any advice without knowing what type of shroom you started with. Different types have different procedures. Personally I've only grown cubensis and thats the most popular around here, but the techs for cubes won't work on other types in many cases.
Honestly man I wasn't talking down to you. Maybe some day when you get to know the hobby more you'll come back to this thread and read it and see I'm not being the ass you paint me to be.

well i apologize for the misunderstanding but anyways i picked up some "shrooms" so i'm pretty positive it's psychedelic. i split the stem in half and extracted a bit of tissue near the base.

The shrooms you picked up were fresh, not dry?

dude is it cubensis or a wood loving species . dont try to grow cubes on woodchips. use that cardbord to inoculate a sterilized jar of rye grain or wild bird seed in a glovebox.which im not even sure that will work. read up on preparing grain. then even spawning to bulk like horse poo straw or coir. not knowing what you are growing it is hard for anyone to give you advice. im sure that cardbord tek is for wood lovers. not your most common "trip" shroom. if you still have more tissue to clone from you could clone to a liquid cultue. then use that as inoculant. either way you have alot of searching to do. you started your project without the needed knowledge. search this site on any of the topics i have listed. im new as well but i am sponging up knowledge. i wont start until i have every item and all knowledge needed for my pproject.
