As already mentioned there is no mycology degree offered by any australian universities. but if you look there are some good units around, my recommendation is to focus on majoring in plant science and microbiology, and then specialise. consider doing some genetics, and bioinformatics units, given that microscopy is now fairly old school as we progress towards using dna for identification. University of Tasmania has some good units in mycology, and a fair few researchers doing mycology research there. University of Melbourne seems to also be a good place to study mycology. I recall the sydney university also had some good courses going. Really in therms of what to study you are only limited by your imagination and government funding. and finding a good supervisor. there are so many areas to study, ecological roles of fungi (this is a huge field), natural products and toxicology of fungi if you are interested in chemistry (also huge), using fungi in remediation, as plant pathogens, soil fungi and the role of glomeraceae in agriculture. plenty of opportunities if you are interested in just growing them. my advice is to learn fungi taxonomy as best you can, start cultivating them at home, and mastering cloning on agar and associated skills, see which aspect of mycology takes your interest and then look at a pathway through undergrad.

Haha. damn thats cheeky. yeah, there is a bit going on like that, people use DNA and BLAST searches incorrectly, and selling species based on incorrect assumptions to increase their profile.

what ever happened to AustralianFederalPolice, havent seen them post in ages

i saw that too

All of the pine loving edibles are mycorrhizal. as Karode mentioned above, create a slurry, or print onto foil and then wash into water. and pour over your plants/around your trees. you dont need chips or needles. also mycorrhizal fungi often need to find their host fairly quickly or the mcelium dies, and then you have to take into account existing mycorrhizal relationships. truffle orchard growers for example go to a lot of effort to ensure the truffles are the only species.

The Australian Psychedelic Society will be hosting its first GROUP BREATHWORK SESSION An opportunity to release and let go of stress, anxiety, fear, resistance, mental confusion, procrastination and gain clarity, insight, deep relaxation.. while getting high as balls on your own breath. The technique we will be using is called conscious connected breathing; sometimes referred to as rebirthing or holotropic breathwork. The body is oxygenated and as increased amounts of energy reach parts of the body that have long been held in tension, stored or suppressed memories, emotions and mental patterns, are recalled and released. During this kind of breathwork participants often report psychedelic states similar to those induced by entheogens. In the 1970s this practice was pioneered in the west by Dr Stanislav Grof as an alternative to using LSD in therapy sessions. Note: This practice is completely safe when done with a trained instructor, however it is not suitable for people with some medical conditions, please skip to the bottom to check if this practice is for you. The breathwork session will be facilitated by Teneille from Breathwork Circles, Krisy Conroy and accompanied by Krti Psyskrit on the decks. LOCATION: Christopher Boots Studio 328 Napier St Fitzroy WHEN: Sunday December 2nd 5-7pm Sessions start on time and doors will be locked at 5.15pm to ensure we create a contained and safe environment to go deep. Please arrive with plenty of time to spare, especially if coming by car. No refunds if you dont get there in time.

Tyndallisation seems to work fine. i had good success. i ended up buying a good italian 9 litre PC that has done me very well indeed. and 10 years later going strong. worth every cent. only issue is can only do small amounts. but if you want to really bulk out then the bigger volumes may be good. you really need to think about the investment. and where you are going to take the hobby.
