I do, and asked, but they are all freakin out on me, so nope! I didnt tell them what it was for either! Its a drag! Ahh well. Gonna have to go look in nature I guess, which is always very involved with knowing the species, etc.

Yo JG, those jars are coming along well bro, what day did you put them in? The window looks good too. Is that the siran wrap, or did you use something else? It looks very smooth and clear!

Be careful if you are gonna go pick them fresh man, I hope you've got some exp with it, and a good field guide. I'd also talk to your friends again, there is no reason for them to freak out on you, there is nothing illegal about the spores in most other states.

shit i almost forgot i got a question..

There are little black specks mixed all in with the little chunk of myc growing in the LC.
Good? Bad? Normal? Start over?

Ohhhh LC....I would keep an eye on it..and if it gets worse..toss it. it could just be spores, I would use a test jar to see if it gets contaminated before doing a bunch!

im trying to figure out what i should do with the 5 BRF cakes
fruit them or try to make a casing?

on another site a guy suggested that i pasturize coco coir and verm (3:1) and with a cheese grater, grate the cakes in, colonize and fruit

im open to all suggestions..

im open to all suggestions..[/quoteI would just put the cakes in a large zip-loc and break them up in small pieces..lay out in a tray..and put verm on top...filling any gaps and then smooth out and mist until nice and moist

cool, no need to buy coir..

so just break up the cakes into small pieces and spread them out nicely directly on a tray
then case with a thin layer of verm, mist and fruit?

2 cakes are almost completely colonized with the other 3 not too far behind

Yep...fruit away!!Just make sure the verm only 1/4 in above the crumbled up cakes...the thicker the casing layer, the longer its gonna take to pin
