My Little Greenhouse

Finally convinced me to look into LC. Got my Karo and Sugar in the raw. I think I'm going to do Agar's Baby Bottle method at first, 200ml seems like plenty per culture. Might expand to jars eventually but these will fit in my fridge easier...speaking of which I need to clean that bastard out. Sure there's lots of nice cultures going in there lmao

oh, one question about LC tho I couldn't find anywhere. Water quality, tap, spring, RO? have it all, which do u use for LC? my tap has Chloramine if that effects mycelium I have no idea, I would imagine Cl and Mushrooms don't get along, just a guess tho. Was surprised to learn you can add 3% h2o2 after it colonizes well.

RO is fine, Baby bottles make excelent slants, when kept air tight in a fridge they last a long long time, even longer if you emerse the colonized agar in sterile mineral oil.
 
My LC's are simple and have served me well. I fill a quart Mason jar 2/3 full with Ozarka spring water, add 1 tablespoon of Karo syrup, one packet of S.I.T.R., and then PC it for 30 minutes. Once cooled I just shoot a few CC's of spores I want to make a LC for into the jar through one of the holes in the lid. Swish and wait.
 
I just have to say. Growing stuff at home is the best. Even though you have to be secretive about a majority of it. If not all of it. Good stuff batcave.

I agree, much easier to walk to my stash area then having to go out looking around the city. I haven't been without meds for 3+ years now ;)

What is sick is this is all for me, well 95% is for me as I donate to a few very close friends. At times I think its more about the hobby of growing than it is about the meds. All we get in our area is brick, dirt, or flatbud or whatever you want to call it it is all mexi-brick, so when I roll up at a party its on like Donkey Kong with a Bong! :hump:

Decided to add a few extra seeds to the mix so broke out my old school phototron that I used to use for seedlings for their first few weeks. I have repowered the 240w Phototron 6 with just a 90w LED UFO the fits and works perfectly in it. Seeds are a cross of 3rd Dimension and Blue Widow, aka "5th Element" which was an accidental cross 2+ years ago and only 11 seeds were found on one small lower bud.
