Dark Side Of The Moon.....

Yay your first fruits! Looking good brother. Can't wait to see the other cakes start to pin for you :)!

When I wanted them fresh I would wash them and dry them real well and refrigerate them in tupper ware, or I just dried them on a old window screen.

If you guys can tolerate just dipping the mushrooms in chocolate and eating them you gotta try grinding it. It makes it so easy!! When I was growing them I bought a coffee grinder just to powder up 1/4s at a time.

Oh and rosey I think you would prolly saute them alittle but I don't know how much the heat would damage the effect. Canndo might be able to weigh in here, or maybe google :).

YAY!! :) Thanks brother.. Yeah the other jars are colonizing slowely but surely. I believe its where its been colder here. I have been trying to keep a small space heather on the colonizing chamber to keep the temps up around 75 to 80 degree's, but damn it gets to hot in here & I just cant handle that shit.. lol

On with the show. ;) I just made up 3 new jars. 2 of the 3 I used BRF & V + H20 mix. The 3rd out of 3 I used the some new WBS. I just received in 3 new strains. More Golden teachers, Pesa, & Golf Coast. I will be inoculating those 3 cakes as soon as they cool from being sterilized. All the others have been colonizing slowly but surely. :mrgreen: Looks like the popcorn & wild bird seed cakes are moving along faster then the previous ones inoculated before them.

Nice job! Those boys looking good. I have two reptifroggers, but haven't been able to get any better results that using perlite. What setting do you have them at?
 
I have mine on a timer as of now. I let the fogger run for a total of 5 minutes every 30 minutes so the cakes/grains wont dry out to much. Where I added 2 (2) litter pop bottles inline with the fogger it traps the extra condensation leaving the mist/fog coming out into the fruiting chamber dry vs wet. ;) I have a custom built fruiting box #2 I am just now putting the finishing touches on. I will post a few pictures of it here in the next few minutes if you'd like to check it out. :) thanks 4 checking out my grow though.. Hope you stick around..
Dank..

Oh yeah, I'm familiar with the pop bottle concept. Its a classic! What dimensions are the fruiting chamber? I may want to replicate that since I have the froggers just sitting there doing nothing. Oh get this, last summer I was driving around on trash night looking for cool shit and furniture and I found one of those onion snapped terrariums from the 1970's! Talking about an ultimate find. They go for like $200 on ebay used! I spotted that thing from a block away. I've never been so excited to see trash in my life. lol!
 
I hear that.. Good find. Mine is 18 x 12 x 13 and is a 7.5 gallon chamber. Has a small light mounted on the top inside lid, also a small computer fan for air circulation, I still need to make a few more holes. Just go finished up with putting the hepa filters on the screen on the top lid. Now I have to filter the side exhaust vent. ;) I also have to link the fogger up from fruiting chamber #1 to this new chamber. PIC_0622.JPG PIC_0623.JPG PIC_0624.JPG PIC_0625.JPG

Oh yeah 4 sure. ;) actually they look to dry. lol. Placed them out on a paper towel in the window (not in direct sun or anything, just for a day. They are now dry to touch & will break if bent. All the other jars are colonizing slowly but surely still. I went ahead and picked all that was left on the cake that fruited & went ahead and flushed it overnight for around 13 to 15 hours I would say & placed it back into the fruiting chamber.. ;) * getting ready to post a few pictures of the other jars that colonizing. ;)
