Big note here,
Always angle your needle toward the glass, spray on the glass not in the middle of the cake.
I use a cardboard box with a clear shower curtain.
Spray interior with Lysol 2 hours before use.
be Super Clean, clean hands, clean clothes, wear gloves have helper wear gloves.
two holes in box on one side for your hands and one hole large enough to slide the jars out.
put all jars in box use alcohol wipes to wipe down the jars, syringe, lighter before you do any squeezing.
Torch your tip(your helper handles the lighter), let the tip cool, insert needle at steep angle and spray on glass, I use three holes so I spray three spots.
I torch between jars.
As soon as I spray a jar my helper removes it and places it in another super clean container with a two inch thick bed of damp sterilized Vermiculite. (use distilled water to dampen vermiculite )
Keep them in the dark for 10 days then check every 5 till mycelium grows.
Its about 30 days.
Now handling is easy be clean but they are not near as susceptible to infection.
open jar slide out mycelium cake flip it over and stand it in the jar lid which is sitting on damp vermiculite.
I use a fish air pump and 1/4" hose to pump fresh air into container and a small battery operated light light a push/tap light LED.
leave light and air on 24/7 check for pins watch them grow, some won't they stay pins. Remove those it will allow another shroom to grow.
I type to much!
Oh I have never grown shrooms, I just read an article, yeah that's it I read it somewhere.
try Thai-tanic commonly used at ever full moon celebration in parts of Thailand.
Someone said they are Wicked!
