Greetings, guys! I wish to present you one of the first attempts to grow up magic mushrooms.
I have chosen from all variety of strains - Cubensis Mexican.
I used wheat, it was colonized in glasses in volume 200 ml.
After colonisation grain has been mixed with a small amount of vermiculite.
I waited some days and have transferred "pies" to a hotbed.

My hotbed - a garbage package. At the bottom there is some water.
I do not use additional illumination, the usual daylight suffices me.
Unfortunately I had no access to the camera during first three waves. Here a photo of two pies after three waves:

And it is the third wave from the big pie:


In total the weight of first three waves has made 13 gramme of dry mushrooms.
Photos of the fourth wave:






I yet did not weigh a crop.
So I will continue the supervision in process of information receipt if it is interesting to someone.
P.S. Excuse for my awful English )

most peoples first attempt is usually no where near as good as urs went! Keep up the good work!

[Clico]

Thanks jmtx. It is already my third or fourth successful experience. I tried to grow up on rice and on hay, but remained is dissatisfied with results and have completely passed to grain. After wheat I plan to try to grow on buckwheat groats.
al-cabar, Thanks )

hotbed=forcing frame=pit ) I do not know other translations )
My hotbed is a translucent tight package. On a package bottom has poured a few waters. Humidity suits me, I air a hotbed 1-2 times a day.
I use wheat

Hi, Clico!
Nice shroom-stars you've got in your packets, but don't forget that Cubensis is like grow-initiation for further grow-expirience and "senior" strains
