victorski Posted April 21, 2008 (edited) Hey guys/gals, my pet flamingo is looking to grow some mushrooms in his kennel, he has everything he needs apart from a cubensis spore print and 1/2 pint mason jars He was just wondering if anybody had any spore prints available :D and if anyone knew where one could aquire 1/2 pint mason jars, what types of shops would he be looking to visit! Many thanks in advance!!! Victor Edited April 21, 2008 by victorski Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hyphal Posted April 21, 2008 Victor - look up the "pf tek for simple mids", and read it fully - you don't need mason jars, normal drinking glasses with foil lids work fine. Spore prints HERE or HERE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
victorski Posted April 21, 2008 i know i dont need mason jars im just a bit of a perfectionist, always like to have the best of the best ;) was just wondering if anyone knew where i could get some from! haha i was hoping i wouldnt have to order them from overseas, im very keen to start straight away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hyphal Posted April 21, 2008 If you're a perfectionist, then drinking glasses ARE as perfect as you can get if you ask me, because they work perfectly... And guess what, $2 for 8 jars at the Op shop, so you can actually get started straight away, sounds even more perfect to me. Trust me on this, unless you are pressure cooking grain in jars, don't waste your time stuffing about with mason jars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen this done and yes you're probably right, it's not necessary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace Posted May 12, 2008 my pet flamingo is looking to grow some mushrooms in his kennel im very keen to start straight away So which is it? A very clever (and highly dextrous, adventurous and law-breaking) flamingo or someone from NSW? It seems so pointless to see people making up hopeless aliases to get away with aquiring illegal ingredients to perform illegal tasks, only to have them openly admit in a later post that they are doing it and not some pot-smoking pet squirrel or neighbours cousins pet alfo bulvarius toad doing something they should be doing. At least stick to your highly (un)believable story if you are going to go to the effort of making it up in the first place. And yes, I have a bug up my arse at the moment.

gilligan Posted May 12, 2008 And yes, I have a bug up my arse at the moment. Lol. i read that and got a visual of a mansized bug (imagine the avatar someone had on here a while ago - can't remember who) with it's head up someones arse and these big buglegs twirling around trying to get into reverse... fuck, it's just one of those days... bring on hometime. Thanks for the laugh Ace... btw - I still got the pollen here for you too, just gotta get around to sending it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deXtrous Posted May 14, 2008 There are means to get free spore prints from growers. Where do growers hang out?? shroomery.org Spore Prints are only useful if you don't have any, so people are willing to give them away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
