    I was hoping to find some psilocybe cubensis spores to I.D. with my new microscope. I have a few things to trade; a small 10cm san pedro cutting, aswell as a foot cutting which is believed to also be san pedro, I just haven't got around to trying to ID it. I've also got some young potted a.maidenii and a.longifolia which i grew from seed. PM me if interested.

    there was only one flower on the whole tree, thats the one in the photo. the flowers looked very old and was not evenly spaced like on longifolia, it was all bunched at the end. also the tree had a really long and defined trunk whereas the longifolias ive seen have branches all around the trunk. i should try get a pic of the actual tree, but is there anyway i can be sure it is or isnt longifolia from the phyllodes?

    ive made my fair share of threads on obtus youd think i would of ID it by now.

    anyway i think this might be it, looked the same as all the pics ive seen.

    the red tipped and bright green leaves stood out alot which is what made me investigate. also the leaves are more obtuse at the end.

    i couldnt get a pic of the tree, i didnt have my cam with me. but it looked very similar to this, but with more red tipped leaves.

    the older phylllodes were dark green and younger ones very bright green and some red tipped. the colours contrasted and it stood out alot. very beautiful, the older phyllodes were also very leathery compared to maidenii or longifolia.

    Ahh ok, looks like i'll have to learn how to work with agar.

    Thanks alot for the offer!

    Turns out none of the mushrooms dropped spores, the enoki just made a white puddle of liquid underneath it, I thought they were spores when I first looked.

    ive grown shrooms before so im semi-experienced with casings and spawn etc. so i sort of know what im doing.

    the reason i want prints is so when ive finished my grow i can print the shrooms and grow again. i dont want to have to buy spawn or agar everytime i want to grow them. will i be able to do this with edibles?

    i bought some oysters, shimeji and enoki fresh from the supermarket and tried printing them.

    the enoki layed there spores down so i got a few prints of them. can i grow them with a syringe on brf cakes? do they love horse poo and casings etc? im planning on trying to grow them the same way i'd grow cubes, will this work?

    not sure whether the other two will drop any spores but ill wait i might get lucky.

    so can most edibles be printed? i only really want to grow edibles which can be printed so i can continue growing them. i got no idea on how to clone or anything like that, but am willing to learn if its easy.

    thanks for the help so far

    oh btw jim you have a nice collection. unfortunately i dont have anything much in thw way of trading except money? i need to get more info before i start growing them though.

    I went on holidays to a cold climate location and found this lovely Acacia sitting in the local park. The leaves were much smaller compared to Maidenii or Longifolia, so I thought i'd get a couple of shots to find out what it was. It wasn't until I got up close and felt how leathery the leaves were that I began to think it might be Obtusifolia. Am I right? The leaves are about half the size of Maidenni or Longifolia and they are much harder, less bendy - leathery.

    i went through something similar a while back. i was never suicidal, but simply put, i couldnt handle social situations unless i was with close friends, so isolated myself and hated myself at the same time for doing it. it may have been a mix of things, but i feel fungi was the main contributor to help me over come this problem. they made me realize the problem, admit it, and deal with it.

    I've got a couple of jars which are close to full collonization, and I wanna do a casing layer on these ones. They are just BRF cakes, for some reason my WBS isnt ollonising. What I plan on doing, is crumbling the cakes up into an aliminium tray which is 2.5" deep, then adding 1/4 (compared to the amount of crumbled cake) coco coir and coffee (the mix will be 80% coir and 20% coffee), so like a 1:4 ratio of crumbled cakes to coir + coffee. I will then mix the coir around with the crumbled cakes so it's evenly distributed, So i have a layer of crumbled cakes mixed with coir about 1-1.5" high. then putting aliminium foil over the top with a few holes and putting it back in the incubator. Once the coir has becom fully collonized i'll add a 50/50 verm+peat moss casing over the top, 1 inch high, and again put it back in the incubator with foil over the top. Once i see white patched popping up the top, into the FC and start fanning, misting and lighting it? Am i doing the right thing? I hope so, any suggestions? I plan on picking up my supplies this weekend, and don't want to get all this stuff and do the wrong thing.

    I'm not sure if you were joking but I have read quite a lot about dextromethorphan (DXM) - the stuff in some cough syrups. I haven't tried it but apparantly it is a very potent psychadelic, well regarded by many. The only "suitable" source I know of is Benadryl Dry Forte which costs $20 odd for a big bottle (can't recall mls?) which contains 600mg of DXM. You'd have to drink most of the bottle to achieve the desired affects and I am assured that it tastes like shit and is difficult to keep in your stomach.

    Should anyone contemplate trying this, do your homework first. Other cough syrups that contain DXM also contain other active ingredients which can be very harmful if you drink a whole bottle.

    is dxm counted as legal when used to get high? :scratchhead: anyways, if it is legal for someone an extraction to get it in pure form is apparently v. easy. something like "add ammonia - add solvent - separate solvent - evaporate" ive never tried it and dont intend to, ive just read alot about it.

    Just letting everyone know. Epsom salts work GREAT! All the mushrooms were fan dried for 24-36 hours, then chucked in a container with the oven dried epsom salts in the bottom, left for 3 days, checked this morn, all are cracker dry. Awesome :D.
