Yeah Glaukus I'll be sussing it out hard down here soon when the weather permits, I just don't want to trespass you know... I'm going up north in the next few weeks (Grassy Head, Mid North Coast) to hunt too. This mad hermit woman my mother knows is going to let me through her field, can't phukn wait! Absolute madness my brother. Get some spore prints of the pan cyans next time they come up if you can be arsed RC - I'd be happy to exchange some of my sweet sweet dole money for them mate.

That's amazing mate, I'm full blown mongrel from your pic. A+ 10/10 Are the odd/smaller two Pan Cyans (blue meanies)?

Onya rahli, You're an inspiration and an asset to the forums/Australia/humanity. Our community has all the love in the world for you mate! RAHLI AKBAR!!!!!

Its weird that we cook bacon and bake cookies? - Cookie Monster

Spot on mate, thats the stuff. http://www.selleys.com.au/trade/building-products/silicone-sealants/silicone-401-rtv/ Check out the technical features. This I thought was nice; Non-toxic: Suitable for incidental food contact in food handling equipment and food contact surfaces.

For the Aussies out there bunnings sells a silicone that is heat resistant to 205 celcius continuous. This is what I use for pressure cooking, Selleys is the brand, white tube, clear silicone. Bout four times as expensive as normal silicone. I'll post a pic tonight when I'm home.

^ I think I know the thread Sal. He uses a cap on the syringe and a rubber band around the plunger to compress and provide some PSI in an attempt to push h2o through the spore cell walls... I need to find a place that sells 25cc syringe caps as the 12cc syringes don't come with a 'thread' to screw a needle or cap onto. Alternatively I could maybe suck up some silicone into the needle then cut the needle off with pliers and i might be left with a water tight clandestine syringe cap type thing... so basically use pressure to hydrate spores, then introduce spores to agar or LC instead of brf aye, rightio. Thx mate, appreciate the input.

with a simple 24 hour rehydration period, friends of mine have had zero luck getting there aged spores (nearly 5 years old) to germinate on brf cakes. Must take some special treatment as you said Cue. that story of SG-30 is bloody impressive, 30 yrs... Fk me.

Thanks d00d shitchyeah a south coast meet would be a massive gristle fest, my psychologist tells me I need to meet new people ^ exactly what he said? Maybe Glaukus can shed some light... Cubies love the turds, and the turd producers are always behind fences, and owned by people. So its gonna be tricky...

Hey what do you mean by the Berry/Nowra show, I'm new down here but my oldboy has been here for years. Hes saying the Berry/nowra show is this weekend? Too early yet I reckon. I'll drop you a PM when the weather heats up a touch maybe you can give me some advice Glaukus - Cheers m8.

Good luck Shane - Good luck everyone. I've recently moved down just about as far south as they can handle. Hopefully I'll find some here in the Shoalhaven, its my first year hunting these parts and I reckon its gotta warm up some before we'll get sightings down here. Shroom porn gets me gristly - look forward to everyones pics

Hey STEEBLES, welcome mate! I'm new here too but have been aware of and reading threads here for years. This place is an amazing Australian resource - treat her well and she will teach you and provide for you many helpful things. I recommend the free spore trading thread to everyone, I received a letter from a very generous member giving me many prints instead of the single one I was expecting. I just need the single native strain (p.cube tasmanian) for microscopy and identification purposes so I'd be happy to send one of my spares your way mate. I have a tasmanian fresh print and a cambodian print aged 3+ years I can send to you too. Maybe someone could chime in and confirm what I've heard mentioned, if a print is aged longer than about 1.5 years the spores cell walls start to collapse making it useless for viewing? I'm posting a letter tomorrow to another member from the free spore trading thread so if you can hit me with your postal details quick sticks I can get em both off tomorrow morning. I'll PM you now

^^^^^^ Thank You matt11175 ^^^^^^ VVVV gets Cambodian P.Cube print VVVV (microscopy only)
