The ShroomErie

We started working with Cordyceps Militaris a few weeks ago. Put it to MEA Agar and we made a special Agar recipe using ground up crickets. Cordyceps are a highly medicinal parasitic Fungi. It infects insects and uses them to spread its spores. We can skip the insect part in the lab but we tried a few variables using insects as well as trying to directly infect a host.

We're also just growing it in shoebox tubs.




Put it to substrate and now it's a 2 month wait. In the mean time, we also tried infecting a host directly. This Cicada was in the wrong place at the right time. Soaked him in spores. It's day 6. He's still alive. We're trying to basically create the walking dead here for shits and giggles. Lol

 

Just some odds and ends from this week.

 

Last harvest of the year out the tent. I grew all that shit.

Pleurotus Djamor, Hericium Erinaceus, Pleurotus Ostreatus and Psilocybin Cubensis.

 

Cleaning up plates.



I make super clear liquid culture.



Some random plates. Make real clear Agar too!



Malabar is a monster on grain



Cordyceps Militaris 30 days in. 30 more to go. Parasitic Fungi.



On Agar



My compost pile is starting to come to life. Lions Mane and Pink Oysters growing. My genetics, not wild.

 

A list of my current species if anyone is ever interested..... I aquire more regularly.

Gourmets:

Blue Oyster (Pleurotus Ostreatus)
Pink Oyster (Pleurotus Djamor)
King Oyster (Pleurotus Eryngii)
Lions Mane (Hericium Erinaceus)
Reishi Ling Chi (Ganoderma Lucidum)
Wine Cap (Stropharia Rugosoannulata)
Shiitake (Lentinula Edodes)
Shaggy Mane (Coprinus Comatus)
Pioppino Black Poplar (Agrocybe Aegerita)
Hen of the Woods (Grifola Frondosa)
Warm Weather Button (Agaricus Bitorquis)
Cordyceps (Cordyceps Militaris)

Psychedelics:

Meance (Psilocybin Cubensis)
AA+ (Psilocybin Cubensis)
B+ (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Albino Penis Envy (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Malabar (Psilocybin Cubensis)
KS Squatknot (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Avery (Psilocybin Cubensis)
OG Melmack/TAT cross (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Jack Frost (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Chocolate Kringle (Psilocybin Cubensis)
Nuttcracker (Psilocybin Cubensis)

 

About to do a PF Tek myself. I know the PF Tek is low yield but it is plenty for my personal cubensis needs. I have a friend that is hung up on type of cubensis, soon told him that Penis Envy was better than the others, but truthfully a cubensis is a cubensis.

 

If anyone is interested in growing their own psychedelics, if you are the analytical/methodical (and a bit artistic) type it most definitely can be done. Just buy a few syringes from AGK. Doing so is 100% legal in most places. I recommend starting with the PF Tek, its simple. If you want a TON of info, yeah go to the Shroomery, it is an amazing web site and where I got started.

For a really simplified video, check this out: watch

 

A cube is a cube until you get into the isolates. APEs are considerably more potent than other basic cubes like B+ or GTs.
I'll take 3 to 4 grams of B+ to get the same effect as .5 grams of APE.

 

Legal in all but Idaho, California and Georgia.

 

That is,
Spores are legal. Mycelium and fruits are not in any of the 50 states but have been decriminalized in a couple places with more coming faster than the legal weed did. The medical benefits of Psilocybin Cubensis are now undeniable by the medical community.

Absolutely true. Cubensis are a proven cure for depression, although personally it only lasts a week or 2 for me. Another thing, smaller shrroms are more potent than larger. And this may not be 100% valuable advice...but I like PF TEK because if I ever got in trouble it shows that I was only growing for personal use, not distribution.

People on this board should know that they can grow their own and use you as a legal source for spores. Its a chunk of work to get up and running but once going I get about an ounce every time I do a PF Tek.

 

Pf tek is a great starting point for beginners or people that just want personal. I never learned it lol. I mean, I know it and it is easy to do I just never grew that way. I went straight to bulk substrate. Don't really do anything in less than a 54l tub. With the exception of Cordyceps Militaris.

 

I get about 6 to 9 months of relief from 1 middle of the road trip. Microdosing is really where one wants to be when it comes to treating mental issues or addiction issues. Though 1 massive trip, 4 to 6 grams, can really change your life.

Those who don't know, Paul Stamets is basically the John P Colby of the mycology world. The godfather of modern mycology.

 

I HATE trips. Like fucking despise them. But last trip I went on I ate a 1/4 oz the other 2 ate and 1/8. I popped a tall boy of Corona ate my 1/4 and 20 min later was VIOLENTLY vomiting.... once I came out the bathroom I looked at my buddy asked if he had some bball short I could borrow and spot to chill. I ended up laying in a bed BLASTED for hours. I went to another realm. When I "came back" it felt like I fell out of the sky into my own body. Like being shot I jolted up walked out of the room I was in to the room everyone else was, washed my hands and started talking about needing a std test because I "just fucked an alien who showed me the meaning of life". I reiterated I know I didn't "fuck an alien but it's the closest thing I can explain to how my being interacted with the other one" I told the whole house I was Baseline let's go for a drive and realized quickly I was at their peak lol.


Personally I'd got the dmt route again before shrooms... give me 10-15 minutes of super intense soul healing than hours of dragged out foreplay

 

Check out some of Randall Carlsson(sp) on Joe rogan. They talked about Amanita muscaria being the birth of Christianity, etc. The Carlson bros have done more weed and trips than a year at burning man combined lol. Interesting shit

 

I have Amanita M. too. I don't mess with it but I have it and know how to prep. No interested in using it myself though, my partner in this buisness does though. Wild harvested of course because it's not one you can grow in the lab or in a tent being that they are mycorrhiza. Needs a tree. Probably the most identifiable mushroom on the planet.



I also don't care to trip anymore either. Once in a blue moon to fix my mind then I'm good for many months. As an adult with responsibilities I don't have time to be uncontrollably high for hours on end anymore.

 

A species I've never found before. I'll be cloning it in the lab later this evening.
