Sorry its a forum on cannabis not Psychedelic Mushrooms... there really fu'cking stupid they fry your brain, and people die from then and I have a aunt who took some and went crazy and is still in an insane institute also I took some ended up in the hospital FAILED.

FALSE....you could go crazy and WANT to kill yourself or kill someone else..But thats with people with no control..thats why you have to have control over yourself and do it with friends that have done it before and know what there going up against otherwise your stupid...its nothing to play around with...if you saw life with it in about 2 hours and knew how content you were with yourself while on it you would realize.
If you see a bad trip coming along you have two options...Let it do what it wants with you and go for the ride OR try and fight it, struggling and be dragged along for the ride. Anyone who goes crazy from shrooms was pre-disposed to having schizophrenia....


Psilocin is structurally similar to serotonin. Psilocin crosses the blood-brain barrier and acts as a 5-HT2a receptor agonist causing the psychedelic effects. Psilocin is completely harmless physically. You can not overdose on mushrooms. People can't die from eating legitimate psilocybin containing mushrooms unless they reach the LD50 level which is basically impossible without extracting pure psilocybin and eating maybe 2 lbs of it

Quick question for df or bearfoot,
how long can one keep a spore print? I have several prints that are 5-6 years old, thinkin' about making a few syringes. Don't want to do it if it is a waste of time, would rather order some new ones! Thanks in advance.
mycall

You can keep it for years upon years....when you make a spore print though keep the spores hydrated for a couple days before using them so they hydrate...
As long as the prints in aluminum foil or in a sterile bag and away from airborne contaminants it should be fine....otherwise do some agar work with it and keep transferring until you get a nice genetic isolate.
 
Just gotta post.... currently stuck with the extended family for the holidays.... I WILL POST PICS TO BACK MY SMACK TALK WHEN I GET BACK....

There is no reason to go through the time/energy investment always with a percentile chance of getting caught to simply play around with PF Cakes.... with cakes you might get enough for 3 trips after all of that work? Marx and Dumbfounded know what is up, go to the WalMart and invest in plastic ware.... grow once a year and grow enough for the entire next year, with enough to share..... dry them quickly until crackling dry and keep them forever in your favorite mason jar.

Treasure Coast, Penis Envy, Huatla, Orissa, the various Cambodian super strains, or my fav is the historic B+ (all spores available for the Hawkseye), all can be grown bulk neglect in the tubs as long as decent amounts of oxygen gets in during flushing. Always watch out for the tricoderma, while positive for cannabis is death to the fun fungus among us..... and recycle those mycho-soils for excellent organic compost/potting mix!

Lune TNS, who I remember from OG site is also completely right, after one has sampled what kind of mystery a substance has to offer, with wisdom we dial it back a bit. Last year I ate quite a few mushies and ended up feeling like my mind had been sand-papered.

There were no bad trips. But it is not always what I want, and when one grows wise enough to always have some on hand, the necessity of "what if they run out!?!" is not there.

Positives are when one cultivates one's own, one knows EXACTLY what species and exactly what casing-- so absolutely no chance of idiotic poisoning or ecoli illness from cow dung. No worries equal a far better mind set for the journey.

I don't do cyansens cause they are so tiny and potent there is no way to regulate dosage well, especially among those who have a lesser body weight.

Yeah, we can eat MAO inhibiters based on harmiline extracts and chow till we're in another diminsion, but how difficult is it to get back and what time is wasted in the process. I mean harmiline extraction can be done, but why involve one's self in organic and inorganic chemistry? I avoid anything where I have to heat up alcohol in a double boiler.....

Sorry for the capitalization, I've been drinking Christmas Guiness. Thanks for the thread.

And Lune we're gonna get 'Roast to play some "Let It Bleed;" I had forgotten we had met when you were hanging with McCartney in 1986.

Though perhaps I am tragically mistaken.

Happy Holidays!

FINALLY, someone with acknowledgment besides me and bear, though I have heard of people getting 5 ounces of mushrooms off pf cakes doing a PMP (Poor Mans Pod). But with 6-10 FAE exchanges/fanned/misted leave the lid ajar you could get WAY larger yields. Anyways B+ and Penis Envy are the most potent of the cubensis and are over rated but id pick them over all...The most preferred Casings for bulk substrates is
50% Peat Moss/50% Vermiculite with Gypsum pasteurized between 140-150F preferably for one hour...just don't go below 140 and go beyond 170. From numerous accounts if you use lime to ph balance your casings you don't even need to heat treat it....Lime is unfriendly to mold.

Cyanescens are just as easy as cubensis but require more experience/different substrates and a bit changed in the environment...other then that there just as easy!

Great to have someone else with positive vibes on this thread

I hate when people act like shrooms are worse than cannabis for some strange reason. That makes no sense..

By that statement all I can assume is that you have never had them before or had them in such small doses as to seem harmless.

Wait until your first bad trip, and then ask yourself why there arent any actual mushroom cultivation websites (edit: there might be some but not on as a grand scale as) or as many anti prohibition movements for mushrooms as there are for MJ.
Then consider why only a few people actually do take mushrooms and then consider why its not a daily occurence and why alot of people cant function in their daily jobs on mushrooms where they can with MJ.

Thing is taking and possessing these are illegal but there aren't as many commercial growers on as a consistent as scale as MJ growing for a reason.

All Im sayin is RESPECT the Mushroom.

Its been 16 yrs since I last went there and i'm not in any hurry to get back if ya know what I mean, been there, done that, got the t-shirt.

Drunken shroomin, anyone done it? lots of fun..

anyway, i had a roomate once who ate around 30grams of mushies in about a 3 hour period, he was fine... he acted pretty weird, but he didnt bug out.. the kid would eat mushies almost daily.. i think he had a huge tolerence
Were they fresh?

hey df,
any teks on makin a sterile spore syringe?? thanks in advance.
mycall
 
make a still air box....which is basically a tub with 2 holes cut out for your arms...much easier to keep sterile...anyways...after making something like that you need to sterilize everything you need..get a shot glass and wrap it in foil, suck up some tap water with your syringe and wrap it in foil but put the syringe needle facing up in a qt jar...the reason to face up is because if its facing down it will shoot out all the water while under that amounts of pressure + gravity....put some water in your qt jar also so it s not in there bone dry.......

1st before sucking up the water its best to put a few drops of sex lube in there so the spores done clump or stick together...this will not hurt your spores one bit...some people even use jet dry liquid..anyways...just add a few drops to that in your syringe....pressure cook jars for 45 miniutes at 15 psi!....scrape the spores off a spore print into the shot glass after its cooled down to room temperature and shoot the walter in...mix!....suck the water/spore solution up....KEY! to incubate syringe at 75-78 for 2 days before use to hydrate the spores....
 
Mushies abound!!!!

Mushies abound!!!!

Time to back my smack talk!!! :joint:

1/4 of what I harvested from my first casing before it was eaten by tricoderma. Peace ya'll.

The Afficianado :lurk:








And yes, I DO believe in harvesting before the veil rips, but I went out to party and when i got back they were more than ready!!!!! IC Mag gets the scoop before my Mycotopia thread.

Nice Flush man...really nice flush...what strain was that...and I ask do you sterilize your casings The Afficianado?

Bear hows your grow going?...I just got a thread of using coir in substitute of verm dunk and roll...look at the pics!

the reason your getting small mushies is this

Misting them and not having enough air exchange to dry them off. Misting hard, Genetics. Just do it indirectly, fan them off after, and make sure you have enough air exchange. Leave the lid a bit ajar too. Gotta have as much air exchange as you can in those small terrariums while maintaining humidity
You want to mist directly until you see knots, it's fine.

If you really want to get blasted to the other side....source some Peganum harmala (Syrian Rue)........eat a gram of the extracted goop of the Peganum harmala seeds about a half hour before you eat 3.5 grams of any type of mushroom. Peganum harmala is full of Harmaline, a MOA inhibitor and will inhibit the brain from removing the psilocybin from the receptors in the brain. Pretty much as close as you will get to Ayahuasca.

Careful with the MOAI's if your on SSRI's, actually from what I understand, just don't do it if your on anti-depressants. Is anyone in a position to elaborate?
