If ya have a place to grow shrooms can u buy some shrooms n use those to get urs started. I figured if ya leave some of the ones ya brought around the rice cakes that itll start growing into new shroom cuz of the spores from the ones ya have.??
No. You have to take a spore-print then grow them out on a suitable medium. Once two compatible homokaryotic mycelia join and form a dikaryotic mycelium, you isolate and culture several times until you have a strong enough strain, then grow that out( again, on a suitable medium) until it is mature enough and there is enough bulk to 'case' with soil. Then mushrooms can begin to grow... Great as a science project, but just to get some trippin's? (Been there, done that. Fresh 'srooms really do come on differently than dried.) Too much work really, keeping everything aseptic an' all... plus the risk/ reward thing... it's not worth the effort IMHO.
Once the cased jars are exausted and stopped growing mushrooms I just threw them out. You have to innoculate your shit to some fresh medium from time to time if you want keep your strain alive. I used to have all these baby food jars with mycilliem growing in them on potato dextrose agar laying around for months until they all eventually dried into 'chips'...A friend came over jonesing one night and I thought of them. Three or four of us sat around nibbling these until sure as shit pretty soon we were all giggling our asses off! Amazing how much psilocybin is in even just the mycilliem of a good strain of cubensis!
Damn r u speaking english?? Well now I know how people feel when I start explaining to them whats wrong with their car an they have no clue on what I just said Is their ne way ya can explain that in lay men terms??
Lol, it just means you can't grow mushrooms from one spore, you have to do some breeding lol, and there are not male and female spores, but compatible mating species that each contribute a single nuclei to form a dual nucleus mycellium capable of growing mushrooms. (heh sorry you'll have to familiarize yourself with the terms on your own, you'll need pics if you've never seen mushrooms growing The mycellium from a single spore will never produce mushrooms, but can grow and live for a long time if it has nutrient. I'm pretty sure it still contains the active ingredient though. Get a book, or online info...it's easier than it sounds. lol good luck and have fun
What he means is you need to study a bunch before you are ready to grow shrooms. You don't need isolate the culture and can instead just do a multispore innoculation.... but your yields will be lower. http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showthread.php?t=416240&f=118
