QuantumReality Posted March 21 I used squirt guns too for many years to spead the spores of subaeruginosa. I would say half of yearly prints would go back to dispersal 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rottenjonny Posted March 22 Haha, I love it. The Council has been doing this through woodchip dispersal for years! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saguaro Posted March 22 surely shooting spores from a water gun is pointless - if the environment is correct in that area, they will already be growing (and sporulating) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The benefit is you can get to fresh chips and start sub spawn before other species have a chance to dominate. Every bit helps. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saguaro Posted March 24 (edited) shroom gun virtue signalling < established bulk methods which are only marginally more effort edit: not trying to be negative towards people's good intentions, but I honestly don't believe this would do very much. Kinda like the 'pick n flick' myth Edited March 24 by saguaro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saguaro Posted March 24 This doesn't make sense to me: "The reason why people are out “spreading this mycelium around is because we all feel the corporate thing coming and we don't like it,” he adds. Steve claims to have single-handedly created hundreds of magic mushroom patches in the US: “This is a way that I can make the experience more available. But there are a lot of people doing bigger and more elaborate things.” not defending 'the corporate thing' by any means, but I don't think commercial interests in magic mush will make it any harder to go out picking than it already isn't 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ickis Posted April 3 (edited) https://au.spyra.com/pages/spyra I've got a hoodie that I let subs drop spore prints all over before drying them all the way. I wear this when I'm out picking. Edited April 3 by Ickis 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rottenjonny Posted April 3 spyra is a $140 water pistol but for some reason I'm still intrigued 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
