Hell yeah those are dense

I was really pleased with the speed of colonization in my first dubtub.

Until this morning.

5 grated cakes in 70 minute pasteurized mix of 1 litre potting soil, 500 ml straw, 250 ml hydrated used coir, 30 grams limestone powder.

I'm guessing the green came from the straw. Is straw ever sterilized and then mixed with the remaining substrate and pasteurized?

 

This strain lives on in the other group.

Finally something to share! Just got my first exotic pins on an atl#7/galindoi outdoor flowerpot. They're hard to see but coming in nicely.

Cool man!

[KapnDank]

Now you can actually see them in a pic. Lol They just keep popping up

[KapnDank]

Ya know sometimes I feel like waiting on the pins to mature is one of the hardest parts of cultivation. Lol oh well I'll have some ready for the weekend it seems.

Whoot whoot! Good job brother. Bet you're dying for a taste.
I always like my mushrooms better than any I've bought. You nurture them and they nurture you

It may not be mush cult but it cultivated non the less

datura stramonium var. tatula happy to see the first blooms in a plant sown so late.

Trich pach var LER

Here's my little peyote

[Misfit]

That datura worries me from the stories.


“I’d rather have nothing than have a lie”

[KapnDank]

Yeah gotta do a lot of research before I think about using it for it's medicinal properties. No intention of ever using it as an entheogen just tiny doses for things like nausea. 3-4 seeds will knock out pretty much any nausea be it a hangover, stomach bug, or nausea from psychedelics

[Misfit]

I have read some stories about shamanic uses. Pretty interesting stuff. I have absolutely no desire to consume it though.

I don't want to veer this thread off track, but the datura's need a few comments. Kapn, they are beautiful I agree. Do know though, that the alkaloid content varies from plant to plant, and each individual person can have hugely varied reaction to this toxin.

If 3-4 seeds has been tested by you and found to be effective for nausea, please do not assume it would be the same for a different plant, or that everyone gets the same effect.

 

I have grown them just for the flowers, but really don't recommend playing chemical roulette with ingestion.

 

OK, back to the enjoyable cultivation pics.....................................

[KapnDank]

That's actually why I've only used the seeds medicinally. The alkaloids are pretty consistent in the seeds. Every thing else on it and you need to get well aquatinted with your plant. Also datura stramonium isn't as potent as other daturas and varys a bit less than other daturas.

[KapnDank]

I still don't recommend anything but the seeds to anyone. Seeds are safe at 3-4 seeds. It doesn't become toxic until many fold that dose.
Edit: datura is dangerous no matter which plant it is. And overdose can apparently lead permanent psychosis if it doesn't kill you first.....now I feel a little better talking about it. Don't want anyone seeing this and thinking it's a good idea. It's just my idea and I sometimes have dumb ones lol

I have four jars that colonized so slowly that they are making invitros just 3 days after reaching 100% surface colonization

When I birth them in a week I guess I'll have some flat mushrooms to dry.

[Stroker]
