> i really wanted to see your video you got posted

Have you installed DivX?
http://www.divx.com/divx/

As for the vermiculite, it is already very clean out of the bag, so moistening it and heating it up in the microwave for 10 minutes is enough.
Never microwave it dry , it will get VERY hot and destroy(melt or crack) the container you microwave it in.

You could construct an enclosure using a plastic bag and some sticks. Or use a bin covered with a sheet of plastic.

I made a time-lapse video of some P. cubensis Burma growing over 42 hours.

The video is 42 seconds long.
1 second in video is 1 hour in real time.

You can download the video in 2 different formats:

Real Media format, measures 320x240 pix, 2.3 Mb:

DivX format, measures 640x480 pix, 3.8 Mb::

>Hello, Im new to this board
We are all new to it, since the board itself is new, welcome!

>I purchased a spore syringe of the Equador strain a few weeks ago and I swear
>it looks like nothing but clear water in the syringe. Is that normal?
The color of the syringes varies from violet to completely translucent.
Spores are microscopic, and even you don?t see any. there can be many, many in there.

For the moment I have enough  bandwidth.
I am not sure though if  want this forum as a competition to the big established forums, it?s more of a feedback platform for my teks.
But, only time will tell what will happen.  :)

>should I be concerned about the obvious moisture in the star athlete?
No, this is completely normal.


> And, I've been reading up on casing and it looks pretty straightforward.
>I'd like to try casing for 2 or 3 of my cakes, but this is my first time ya know.

Try it, casing is not hard, but as you said, it's better to not try it with all the cakes at once.
The casing section of the Shroomery should give you some pretty good advice:

I would definitely turn the heater off after they are fully colonized. They can sit for 1-2 weeks in the dark after they are fully colonized, but without heat. The "worst" thing that can happen is that they begin to pin in vitro.

A couple of mushroom websites with communities. They are in no particular order, although I have a faible for the Shroomery(who couldn?t tell that ).
Please add your favorite communities to the list.

www.thedonkey.info
Started as an ancestor of the famous Drooldonkey, at the moment not much mushroom info there, rather a general chit chat.

Created by the controversial Captain Max Mushroom.

www.magicmushroomforum.co.uk
Small English mushroom forum.

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=alt.drugs.mushrooms

Not much, the domain addresses are still offline due to the attack. I don?t know when they will work again.

Do you want to see any new pictorials on this site about anything mushroom cultivation related?
If so, pertaining which topic?

Looks good for 4 days, keep it nice and warm and they will be doing ok.
I don?t think they will be overly colonized in 14 days, so you can leave the in the incubator while you are not there.
If you should notice in 1 week that they are nearly colonized, then take them out and let them finish outside somewhere where they get some light.

Welcome bluefrog, first registered user!

Well, I will put the links to to the forum  in   the Teks sections eventually. I don?t want this to get a  big forum, just a platform for some feedback regarding the teks and the site in general.

I decided to create this forum in order to give people a way to directly post feedback on the teks featured on this website.

Mushroom cultivation is an ever evolving hobby or occupation thus also this site and its teks change over time. If you have some suggestions or questions, please post them in this forum and let fellow shroomers help you finding a solution.

Feel also  free to post anything else  related to mushrooms.
