no. you need pressure to get the temperature higher (to sterilize your jars for shrooms, right). water boils at 212 deg F with no pressure and will never get any hotter no matter what because it boils off
NOW... seal that beotch up so it holds 15psi and now you're cooling at like 257 deg F.

this might explain it better:

So you sayin seal the pot or seal the pressure cooker? cuz if i can just seal a pot and the lid down around the edges i will do it

theres NO way to seal a regular pot for 15 psi. it's toally unsafe. take a look at MY PC;

see those hardcore thumb screws all the way around it? you cant do that to a pot. you don't want to try either unless you want the metal shrapnel of a pot in your forehead. ha ha

just buy a pc man. it doesn't have to be huge like mine either. target has them for like 30 bucks i think.

I've seen them for as low as 20.

If it's shrooms you're after - definately spend the cash and get one. Doesn't need to be big or fancy.

lol gotcha
but i just found a video on growing shrooms and it says that you can use a regular pot and lid to sterilize. go to youtube and search for ''Lets grow shrooms'' and watch all 4 parts.

i have watched everything on there on shrooms and weed. trust me. You CAN do it, you can also grow weed in a pile of of dog shit but it's gonna cause problems. Theres nothing wrong with doing it right. and when it comes to shrooms they are VERY sensetive to sterilization or the lack thereof so you're better safe than sorry. unless you want to watch your shrooms mycellium mature for a month just to be contaminated in the end and you'll have to throw it all away.
