I've grown mushrooms for a few years. Ordered from every vendor out there. Spore depot leaves the needle on the syringes and I would not suggest them. I got a 4 for $20, knew that was too good to be true. All were contaminated.

There is a guy I found, seekknowledge on Reddit. I have ordered from them a few times and I can say that they are better than most major vendors. They carry P.E. that is real. Both times I ordered I got my packages within the same week. They can only be found on Reddit though, but its usually deals like 6 syringes for $30.

Heres some AA+ I got from them.

Cool, I'll have to check it out.. How do grow them?. BRF?. Corn?..
Never did of tek cakes, seemed like more prep work for way less mushrooms than bulk. Bit it does work and if you want a small ammouy for personal use then go for it

I do bulk substrates.

I use rye Berry's or wild bird seed for my grain. I inoculate quart sizes jars of sterile grain with agar wedges of a mushroom culter I I have isolated. When the jars are 100% colonized in use them as master jars and do a grain to grain inoculation to increase my grain spawn. Then I get 650 grams of coco coir, 8 cups coarse vermiculite, and about a quarter cup of pelleted garden gypsum, I bring 3.75 quarts of water to a hard boil and then pour the water in a 5 gal bucket with all the dry ingredients in it. Cap bucket tightly and wait one hour, after an hour open the bucket and dona quick mix of the ingredients, cap bucket till room temp. Then I mix( its called spawning) 5 quarts of colonized grain with the bucket mix in a mono tub( Google it) . ibget 8-13 ounces per 65qt mono tub.

Penis envy tends to not perform well on of tek cakes.

I'll take a pic of a mono tub in just put in fruiting conditions in a little bit.

Nice!. I'll have to try that. I tried rye berries but I got a contam but I was injecting rye bags. So I went back to BRF/Verm. I guess I never really bothered with bulk ammounts so I was happy with that tek. I would do about 20-30 jars at a time so for my own personal use I had plenty. . Anyways. I'll give it a try with the agar.

You have directions for the agar tek?. or a link?.

pasty whites easy agar (pasty plates) <== GOOD FOR BEGINIERS

Just google any LME agar pour.

I use 7g LME with 4g agar agar with 500ml of distilled water.

dissolve on the stove and PC for 20 mins, then pour when its cool enough.

Dont like ralphster nor spores 101
I gotta ask why.. 100% delivery, no problems ever. My only thing is that the 'shroom itself was kinda weak (GT).. So I dont know if it was a different strain or what. Thats why I started mixing them up like a few GT's and B+ totally works for me.

ralphster - known scammer.

spores 101 - Got a bunk syringe once and the other time it was contaminated and had to clean it up.

Ok, that's not my experience, I think I had 2 contaminated jars out of a hundred, but it could have been me, its really wierd if I get a contamination so they do stand out. I did get one syringe of GT that was lame. Other than that no problems.

Sending cash to someone sounds like a complete scam. The spore depot in tellin ya kid wont regret it. And they will replace any contaminated syringe if u happen to get any of those . I never have in my experience

Thanks. I wanted an easy in to start with agar. I've been neglecting it. Did the LC. Now I can try agar and maybe a blender culture? If I go bigger.

u have to get into agar. its really no big deal. do a pour tek with that recipe you can scale it up or down.

I'm getting more into the stone producers now. they seem a lot more popular around these parts. i have about 2kg's dried shrooms in stock. Gona focus on the weed grow a little more in the coming months.

I haven't needed to order spores for some time now, fortunately.
Once upon a time I tried several grow styles at once,

unnatural selection, maybe?
