Hi there! Newbie has entered the building.
    #9173053 - 11/02/08 03:40 PM (15 years, 3 months ago)

I just thought I'd obey netiquette and introduced myself after reading around for a while.

I just started my very first growing attempt. I am not a newbie to shrooms. I have been picking them in the wild for 20 years now (I know some killer Semilanceata fields around here, "here" being the Taunus, Rhein-Main Region in Germany). I dearly love shrooms. They've always been nice to me, but always waiting for Fall gave me the blues. Of course, with the Netherlands nearby, one could always go and buy a batch of cubensis there, but what's the fun and challenge in that? Exactly.

I went to school in the US as an exchange student for a year back in 89/90. Being extremely lucky, I ended up in Oregon and got introduced to the Cubensis by the hippies I hung out with there. They were not called Psilocybe Cubensis there back then, but Stropharia Cubensis only.
Well, what can I say? With Fall nearing its end and Winter setting in, I am all out of Semilanceata and decided that it was time to start my own growing operation. I have built an incubator/terrarium combination from a mobile camping closet I bought from ebay which I insulated with styro. I have a thermostat and hygrometer sitting outside with the sensors in the closed environment. For a first test I shot up a few PF-Tek jars with Ban Hua Thai spore syringes I bought off a very friendly supplier in Austria.
I can't wait to see the results. If things go well, I will move on to grain tek.

Well, apart from Magic Mushrooms, I do embrace the edible ones as well. My grandpa - may god rest his soul - first took me mushroom hunting when I was 3 years old and that was 35 years ago. During the last weeks I pulled quite a few kilos of Boletus Edulis from the woods around here.

So yes, I am a real mycophiliac.

Glad to be here and I'll annoy the lot of you with questions if I have any. :smile:

Cheers
German Kahuna

Right on, welcome to the shroomery. I'm sure they can use you in the hunting forum.

Another Kraut, eh?  Glad to have you on board!

I spent 3 weeks in your lovely country this summer, mostly in the Black Forest area.  I'd love to see Germany again sometime!

Welcome to your newest addiction.
I spent some time in Germany from '86-'89, with the Army.
God I loved that country.
Best beer in the world.

Welcome man!  I can already admire your ability to punctuate, spell, and organize sentences, and English prolly isn't even your first language!  You'll fit in great here.

the shroomery is a schedule 1 narcotic
it has a HIGH potential for abuse and a HIGH dependency factor physically and mentally,so use it cautiously!
Peace

That's spot on. My "native tongue" is German. But I don't mind either way. I am as comfy with English as I am with German. I am an IT guy now, but I used to translate literature from English to German in an ancient past. I did some comic books, too. Like Calvin & Hobbes, for example.

Anyways... thank you all for the warm welcome!

I was AMAZED with how well most Germans I met spoke English.  Some of them made me feel bad about my grammar usage :lol:

That's the case apparently, but I thought this was the off-topic lounge of this message board. :wink:

So I see you are a Linux user. Big plus in my book. Big plus.
