  1. Hey Mate,

    i just use a lid with a very small hole then put a double layer of alfoil over the top. I have never worried about using anything else and have never had any issues - touch wood.


  2. Yeah i use it on all my veggies to keep away slugs and snails... :)

    barriers around all my plants and veggies!! amazing stuff.. Along with copper wire too :)

    so pretty much to sum it up... diatomaceous earth just keeps bugs out of your colonizing jars yeah?

    Gypsum and DE have no similarities in purpose to each other in this regard?

    Nah :) the DE keeps weasels and shit out of the grain when in storage before you buy it, if it was not in there wheavils and other bugs would eat it and fuck it. Once you put the grain in the jars the preasure cooker then kills any spores such as mould and it is sterile so nothing will grow in it. You then add mushroom spores, Liquid culture or whatever you are useing and off it goes and colonises the jar.


  3. The Diatomaceous Earth is used in grain to keep weaves and shit out of it, it is super tiny particles that are sharp and cut any really small organisms and it kills the fuckers. It is used instead of fungicides. Gypsum is used as an additive to get bigger yields and bigger mushrooms. Use to much gypsum and your substrate will go as hard as concrete - go easy on it. Two totally different animals, DE is used for growing pot as well to fuck up pests instead of using miteicieds which keeps it organic if you are going for organic buds.


  4. Saw the comment ref brown rice flower, one thing I can tell you as a fact as I have done it side by side is that if you get brown rice and make it into flower it produces much better results than using the organic brown rice flour from a shop. You can REALLY tell the difference between them.


  5. Taking a poo in a solicitors office? Does that count? She was a rude stuck up biatch who annoyed me, I was thinking of filling two 9 ltr buckets full of poo and pee and letting it sit for a few days first then going back and sprit zing her office from the top down but ...... Well it just did not work out like that but the thought is still there.

    If anyone wants to use it they can.


  6. With your grains you want the stuff treated with Damascus earth and you won't have problems. Wheat and a few other grains have a tendency to "stick" or clump which is why people seem to stick to Rye or white millet. Stick to the basics and do not try and get all fancy and shit :) find something that someone has done with success and do the same thing.

    In my experience Millet produces better flushes and bigger mushrooms than Rye but rye seems to colonise a little faster than millet.

  7. You will do better with white millet, it is cheaper and gives higher yields. I like rye but it is more expensive and harder to get hold of. There is actually a shortage of white millet at the moment..... It is still around as it is used in bird seed mix but more expensive than what it was.

    Popcorn is like 80s retro.


  8. My thoughts exactly. I mean it's Nimbin FFS. People are too stoned to find the Hungry Jacks (or indeed, to realize that there is no Hungry Jacks) let alone start a riot.

    I was reading your post about being to stoned to find hungry jacks and I though "WTF there is hungry Jacks in Nimbin? I have never seen it........then I read the rest of your post :)
