Hey all, Really interested in growing this one, but cant for the life of me find some one in Australia, can any one help me out, or point me in the right direction Cheers,

Im looking to get some lions mane going, can any body help me out?

Where would be a good place to look?

Does any one have access to spores or cultures locally? Want to avoid getting a print from overseas. Cheers.

After the rains, where very healthy. Edit

How did you get so close? Tele lens or tame?

Its a prototype vaporizer logic board, powering a halogen light for heat source. There is quiet a few different styles of traic control floating around the arduino world, this is just made from bits and pieces. The triac control is 1 input - zero crossing, 1 output - traic trigger, using a teensy 3.x uController. All that you would need in the top left bits, rest are prototyping I/O ports and temperature sensors (2x max31855).

In that case I recommend a nice big triac setup. The heater is always on so dont have to worry about cycles. This is what Im playing with at the moment, using an interrupt for the zero crossing signal. This setup causes a little noise if you run the thermocoulpe wires near the triac output, but that's just 240v.

Do you need really need varied output? How much water are you heating? There is really no need to have a modulated output for doing water, just adds cost (ie keep the heater on at 47%) I personally would use a bog standard solid state relay controlled by a PID, be it a standalone pid control (easy), or arduino (more control, but more fiddling). I would also put a heat sink on it, something like this, add a fan if it gets to hot to touch. Ive never had any trouble with EM with on/off SSR, triacs are a different and noise is an issue (can couple with the thermocouple wire), as you have zero crossing signals and really chopping the wave form up. PS. SS Relays are almost easier to use than mechanical ones. Just use proper termination techniques, using eyelet/ U terminals, rated wire, solid connection. AND GROUND!

Hey, so these appeared a few weeks ago, been meaning to take some photos, but Havant got around to it, just crappy phone pics, the dslr is away for a few days! Are there the flowers or are they yet to flower? Had these for years and never done this before, the fur was like cotton. Bit sad now, got banged up in a bad hail storm and rain.

What should I use? Get some of the oil in a can?

That was such an interesting read! May I ask your background I just want to read more? This is such an interesting topic, almost an evolution of religion.

After moving these guys into some shade, the started looking real good. Now these fuckers have moved in and munching on all the new growth! The white ones are mealy bugs right? No idea what the black ones are. How do I deal with these guys? Ive been smooshing them, but thats also destroying the fresh growth as well! Can I get some advice?

In our group of friends no one watches TV, as in the televised, we all enjoy our entertainment, but on our terms, broadcast TV is as good as dead imo.

Have been growing these things for years, started when I was 18, falling in and out of the hobby, only now finally ready to take some cuttings of them. But I don’t want to! I’ve grown attached to them as there are, this is my favourite pic of one of them a few years ago, so much bigger now, and I don’t want to take the knife to them!
