How many syringes will I need to do the bulk mono tek? Also, how can I make more spores from the syringes I buy? While u were making the tea I thought that u were making spores (fucking NOOB)

indeed, im interested in aquiring a red spore mutant like the aussi one, and I still have yet to grow any albino strain.They don't all look the same.

Agreed. Just as all the strains of marijuana are genetically the same. You can get the same resin production in one strain in another, but they do have different traits just as I'm sure different strains of cubensis carry different traits.

making an lc from a spore syringe is the only option you have directly from a spore syringe, you could take spore print after you've grown some. but mostly spore prints are just to save the strain for later, you can make a tissue clone lc with fresh mushrooms for use right away and it will provide a much more even pin set

1 syringe.
Make a few LC and noc up 7 qt jars, 1cc each. bought syringe is usually 10cc. & jars 3 LCs gives you the very best chance of continued success over a 4 or 5 week period.

I know it seems that way, but it isn't. Cubes are really not even a strain, but more like a family. If it has cubenisis in it's name it is all the same, not like weed at all. You know fungi is neither a plant or animal? It is something else entirely.Agreed. Just as all the strains of marijuana are genetically the same. You can get the same resin production in one strain in another, but they do have different traits just as I'm sure different strains of cubensis carry different traits.
Warning: MJ and mush comparisons are no good!

Brother, that might as well been in Chinese.

well different strains of marijuana have different levels of other cannibiniods effecting the over all effect of each strain, while cubes have just the psilocybin, which metabolizes in to the same psilocin reguardless of strain, so the effects are the same.... if im not mistakenAgreed.

I'm listening, what do you need explained?

We've all been thru 5th grade biology friend.
It was a fair analogy and comparing a complex organism to another is done everyday. LOL
By your logic cubensis has more subtypes then your usual species doesn't it.
I agree with what your saying. So what cubensis do you use.

lol heres my translation might help.
you can make a few liquid cultures, innoculate 7 quart jars. 1 cc each. purchased syringes normally are 10cc's. 3 Lc's will give you the best chance of success, over the next 3-4 weeks
i assumed a few of the abbrivations are still to new to you

4-AcO-DMT metabolizes into psilocin and it's not the exact same high.
I don't know if that first statement is true, but I'd like to believe it is.

Does Cubensis have an officially recognized subspecies? It has cultivars. I know that, but have any of them been recognized as a genuine diverging subspecies by the biological community?

mmmm dont really know, most of my mycology books are 10-30 years old..
sometimes I forget this..

It's hard tell since they were internationally banned 40 years ago.

excerpt fromn a book I own.
"because spores of several different mating types (more complex than just male or female) are produced by a single mushroom, each spore print can have dozens of different strains of dikaryotic mycelium. it is therefore needed to isolate one strain of dykaryotic mycelium, to insure stock innocula from a single uniform strain." it goes on about something else after that but I think this is relavent lol

very nice D, but the use of the term strain is wholly inaccurate...

This discussion is very entertaining.
