I'm just testing out my box to see how many holes I may need, but my hydrometer is reading 100% yet there isn't any precipitation on the sides of the box. I just got some ripped up cardboard in there soaked in a little over 1L of water. Should I be concerned or what?

Well christmas is coming up and I would love to share some wonderful delights with my friends, and a class mate. So far I think I'm only going to have two cakes this month(), but I just got back from a christmas party and got like three bags of chocolate candies. I would like to melt them down and make some mushroom chocolates, thing is I am not really sure how to make normal chocolates xD If possible I wouldn't mind melting the chocolate, then adding in diced mushrooms. With my verm cakes(I hear you can soak them in water/tea and still experience the effects) put them in some form of hot liquid and add that liquid into the chocolate. Any person favourite recipes you guys have?

I see PF-tek quite often and hear about it from some people. I can safely assume tek = technique but whats PF stand for? Most of the acronyms I see around here I eventually figure out or assume what is appropriate but I cannot figure out what PF means.

Well I got a 5L bag of vermiculite and I don't really enjoy doing the cakes because the small yield, and time it takes. I also have 10L of perlite unopened that I intended to use. I found some wild bird seed in my grocery store. It's 15KG and the ingredients were as followed... "A quality blend of fine cut corn, wheat, milo, red millet, white millet,  and black oil sunflower seeds." Would I be able to use this for casing? and if so is there a chance I could actually still use my vermiculite and perlite for some cultivating? I don't want to have 3 bags of nutritious dirt sitting in my coat closet.

Alright well this could be my thread for information pertaining to my first batch now I got all my materials and even some questions The temperature where I wanted to put my jars for incubation is around 30 Celsius is that alright for incubation?
Pictures and Dates. My phone is crappy so pictures might be bad. Will try different picture resolutions later and see what works best.

Well I've now become fairly pissed off and am not in a ask for organic BRF, then hold for 5 minutes, then be nice, type of mood. Can I just use ordinary BRF because I cannot find any damned organic BRF. I've called probably over a dozen places looking specifically for the organic BRF

Hey a shop in my city sells mushroom spores, and has three strands(didn't know there were strands LOL). Just wondering whats the difference of all of them? The strands they sell are EQ, B+ and Argentina
