Go to youtube and search "lets grow mushrooms" and watch it three times and write down your questions and come back and ask them.

You only need a minimal amount of lighting. A single 40 watt bulb is plenty. Cakes usually easier for first time growers. Closet or drawer sure but you need a small amount of ventilation. Warm ok, hot bad. Two weeks or less. B+ is good as any :)

Just go through the first few pages of this section "Hallucinatory Subs.." and read some grow threads. Especially the popcorn teks. You will find all the answers there. That's why there aren't too many responses. All the answers are right here. Waiting to be read. Good luck. Later.

Don't use PF tek, you are always better off using another tek. And casing is always better.

Unlike weed, different strains of Psilocybe Cubensis are gonna have pretty much the same effect and potency. B+ is forgiving to beginners and gives a good yield. Yes you need a lid. Remember the idea of the fruiting chamber is to create as close to a 99% humidity environment so yeah you need a lid to hold the humidity from the wet perlite in.

You can't expect to achieve anything if you don't do any research for yourself.
The answers are their, your just being lazy.

Go to a mycotopia.net and start reading the archives, you will find more then enough information to complete your first grow and become self sufficient.

Youtube and some grow guidelines go a long ways Search google everything is there to learn how. I made up some cakes and got some syringes from earthstounge.com they were Amazonian strain. I tripped my balls off. The main key to it all is sterility, warm temps and humidity at 90-100%

Any specific questions I might be able to help you out.

I would recommend doing a PF tek first time round, then doing a mono tub tek second time, just to get your grips on how shrooms grow and what conditions they need to grow.
