Hey sacred herb thanks for stoppin by. I'm not sure I completely understand your question about the spores, are you asking if I can get any kind of spores,or if in general you can get any kind?

Either way man you can take a spore print from many types of mushrooms. There are some that do to the way they grow don't leave prints. Fungus is very facinating if you start doing some research into it. I strongly suggest a series of videos called shroom hunter, at least I think thats what it was called. I watched them last year some time I think I found them on you tube to be honest. Any way, the movies are mostly about finding magic mushrooms growing naturally, and teachs you alot about identifing them. It teachs you how to take a spore print. Since a spore print is basically like a finger print for each type of mushroom, you can use the spore prints to identify the mushrooms. That is why you can order spores over the internet. The spores are being sold for the purpose of microscopic studies. They are never intended to be colonized to be honest. The spores I have came from sporevisions.com or spores101.com both seem to be pretty good sites, and seem pretty reputable. Hope this has helped, I'll be glad to help with anything I can, but I am also just a beginner, and I have documented every step I have taken on this thread the best I could. I can check out Kushcrossers journals too, he has alot of info in them.

I also can't wait for the MJ to get bigger, but its going real well so far. I'd have to look back to see exactly how old they are, but about 2 weeks, and they look nice and healthy, and about as big as I would expect! I really need to get the ww. afghan, and mangos transplanted, maybe I'll go do that now. I've been tryin to get around to it all day, but I've been busy workin on other stuff, wait til you guys see the veg room, it got all cleaned up, and its lookin good now! We are gettin ready to kick this shit into high gear guys!!

Ya I'll check it out torrey. I love the Stinkbud 9000!! You guys have been having some amazing success with that system. I definitely plan on building one at some point!! Right now I just don't have the money for all the timers, and pumps and extra stuff. BUt soon enough I hope money is much less of an issue.

What I meant was can you get any kind of prints or spores and grow shrooms(the ones that make you high and trip)?

Thanks for the info and ill check the video out on youtube. And If I can Ill make sure ill help you also. Im gonna continue following this thread and any future ones you may have.

I have followed the whole thread and saw the mj growing, but i should rephrase the comment of " cant wait to see it grow", to Cant wait to see it getting bigger and growing more. WW is great stuff, good choice. You seem experienced although you are also a beginner.
Great grow ++ REP!:clap:

And that was strange about the landlord, who would even care sbout one can of WD-40 Lol

:bigjoint:Appreciated,

Lol, Sacred, I still don't get if your asking if, the "you" in, "can you get any kind of prints or spores" is refering to me, or are you using it to generally refer to everyone? The answer is the same either way, check out those sites I listed. They moth have spores from many types of mushrooms, magic, and edible. If you are lookin for magic spores, then look for the differant strains of cubensis, they will be the easiest to grow for some one new. I recomend a strain call Koh Samoi, its from thailand, and it has been blowing my mind for the last month.

Well I'm finally getting some more jars cooked up, I'm just waiting for the WBS to dry right now. I'm trying two things to try to stop the problem I have been having with the bottom getting "cooked". First I have upped the amount of verm I used from 2 tbls, to 1/4 cup and I put it right on the bottom, so if there is any extra moisture the WBS isn't sitting in it, its above it. I also only simmered it for like 10 minutes instead of 20. We'll see what happens. I'm getting ready to clean out my FC, and then prep a tray of SAs and stick them in the incubator.

I'm also going to transplant both of the purple powers that were in that compost and perlite mix, both have shown some mild signs of burning, and I don't want to continue dealing with it, or stressing the plants. So I'm gonna try to very gently change the bottles they are in, and put some cleaner soil in for them. Thank fully the roots on those two havn't gone crazy so I don't think it will hurt them to much.

Thanks for stoppin by Cali, ya its been well. I'm looking forward to this next batch, the South Americans, are supposed to get huge. These last KS were huge, I couldn't believe that when I saw it. I just hope these jars turn out ok this time!

for example, could I go out and find a wild mushroom, retrieve spores, and make/grow shrooms that make you high and trip?

What's up TC..I'll be looking for those pictures you promised.
Good to hear your cooking up some more jars, hope the verm works out..seems like it should do the trick
Man by the way you talk about those KS, making me want to get my hands on some.
The B+ has been treating me nicely but the KS sound bomb
Cant wait to see what the SA are about
And good luck with the transplant :peace::joint:

Well I had just written a nice long update to go along with the pictures, but my browser fuct up, so I lost it! Long story short the SA tray is in the incubator, the plants are transplanted, and I also gave most of them a hair cut. I trimmed some of the larger fan leaves to allow the lower side shoots to get some light. I did this on most of them because I want them nice and bushy for taking clones. Along with my scrog plants, I am going to be doing as many clones into 12/12 as I can SOG style. I'll let them root, then put them into pop bottles, and flower them. I think I'll be able to get some nice 10-14 inch tall buds when I'm done.

Sacred as far as taking wild prints you can do it with most mushrooms, but you have tobe very careful that you know what kind your taking the print from. Only certain types will make you trip. Some are dangerous.

JG I think if you hop on spores101 and order a KS syringe you will be very happy man. Eww thats right you live in florida don't you, can't order them huh. Hmmm

Oh ya, I weighed this last ereal flush today the big ones finally dryed. It was 25g, that is after I ate about 11g(not all at once), and my gf ate about 3. So yet another decent flush for sure.

Ok well heres the pictures you've all been waiting for. I've got some of the KS, some of a giant bud I got in a bag of nugs the other day, I'm still smokin on it. It was very nice. Then of course what every one really wants to see, the little palnts.
