Sclerotium over 12 months growing
    #27403974 - 07/27/21 08:24 AM (2 years, 5 months ago)

I have a question about Sclerotia that has been growing for over a year. Had a couple of quart jars that I thought were duds and stuck them in a box and forgot about them.

Checked them out the other day and low and behold the 2 jars were full of large stones(Mexicana). When harvested and washed they turned blue(much more so than other batches I have grown)

Does anyone have an idea if growing for a year will dramatically effect the potency?

Thanks in advance for any input!

I’ve never grown stones but the jars I have had in the past that have spent an inordinate amount of time growing (and not due to contams) have generally produced some very potent fruits.  How dense are the stones?  They smell ok?

All those wild colors you see in the Mexicana jar are metabolites. Psilocybin isn't the only metabolite that impacts potency. A recent study showed that while mushrooms contained only very low levels of MAOI harmala alkaloids, Mexicana mycelium contained 100-fold higher concentrations.

I suspect those stones will be very potent.

Well “they” say you want to give stones at least a few months to get up to proper potency. If you harvest them too soon they’ll be weak. I don’t know if they just keep getting stronger the longer they sit but it doesn’t seem like potency would reduce.

Have you eaten stones a few times? I can’t remember if I ever have or not. I grew a bunch and still have them somewhere, all dried out. I know for sure I’ve eaten the fruits from stone producing species. I thought I was AI or some kind of machine, I was thinking in numbers it was pretty intense.

You got pictures of these things?

Thanks for the replies. I don't have pics handy. The stones are very dense and the actual stones have turned blue. Have grown Tampanensis and Atlantis. Last time I dosed was on the Tamps and made tea from 30g-VERY intense-they grew for about 6 months.

So I guess these will be stronger.

As an aside-dumped all the leftover rye spawn form the Tampanensis in the backyard and have been harvesting fruits-bonus
