Growing Magic Mushrooms

Has anyone tried to grow mushrooms from stratch? i.e by following the PF tek, innoculating rye/bird seed with spores or a liquid culture etc...

At the top of every chain, there is a grower

I just read the instructions, they make the process sound rather easy

Some magic mushrooms grow on shit, most don't. You wouldn't need shit to grow those ones though

i tried, failed, and tripped pretty hard off the roots

I've always wanted to grow them, but I'm turned off by the whole sterilization stuff.

Seems tough.

the best tek for noobs is brown rice / vermiculite mixture, it has a very low contam rate but doesnt yield quite as high as the PF tek. but its way easier for your first setup. innoculate jars of brown rice / verm, then when cakes are fully colonized, chop them up and put them into a aluminum cake pan and cover with 1/4 to 1/2 inch of a good topsoil manure mixture. put them in a 100% humidity environment with 18hours of light exposure. should start pinning in a week or so

and a tip for drying shrooms ecinomically. use your pc. put a pice of paper in the bottom of the case and leave your zooms on it overnight. the air circulation in the case will dry them out in 10 hours or less.

so basically its like bacteria. it needs plenty of moisture, body temperature and air to grow.

Bacteria and fungi are as about as different as plants and animals

Posted by KilldaDJ on Dec-09-2006 23:40:

u cant have fungi without bacteria.

Posted by Sunsnail on Dec-09-2006 23:43:

You cant have fungi without water either... doesn't mean they're alike

Posted by colonelcrisp on Dec-10-2006 00:01:

bacteria is the last thing you want in your cakes. thats why you stearalize the substrate before inoculating.... and only mix your spores with distilled and uv exposed water.

bacteria = contams

contams = dangerous

I've never heard anything about the smell, but why would it? You don't grow them in cow shit

Posted by colonelcrisp on Dec-10-2006 03:07:
