CLUSTERBUSTERS

<http://ih.constantcontact.com/fs191/1109061736000/img/14.jpg>
Dear Friends of Clusterbusters
Clusterbusters will be presenting our latest research, a collaboration between Clusterbusters and researchers at Yale University at the American Headache Societies 56th annual Scientific Meeting.
The 56th Annual Scientific Meeting is designed for physicians, psychologists, scientists, researchers, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and other health professionals involved in the care of patients with head, neck, and orofacial pain.
June 26th-29th, 2014 Los Angeles, CA
American Headache Society 56th Annual Scientific Meeting
Immediately following this meeting, Clusterbusters will attending the AMHA conference which is being held in the same venue.
Education and support for patients with Migraine and other Headache Disorders, family, friends, and others who care. Sponsored by the American Headache and Migraine Association. For more information or to register, see Ease Headache Migraine Second Annual Conference

While the entire conference is informative and a great opportunity for all headache sufferers and family, we are happy to point out that one of the sessions during this conference will feature Dr. Peter Goadsby speaking on managing Cluster Headaches.
This dual conference event will allow Clusterbusters to meet with all the leading headache specialists to discuss treatments and help educate the medical community regarding the needs of cluster patients. We will be reaching out to those attending who still need to become informed of the efficacy and need for properly prescribing oxygen as well as the wide array of all standard and alternative treatment options.
Our attendance at AHMA's conference allows us to reach out to the patients and families living with cluster headaches and other related headache disorders. Better understanding of cluster headaches among the entire headache community will improve the diagnosis process and help everyone find a treatment plan that suits them.

Last post by anno - April 30, 2014, 01:44:39 AMWell, the spores of the unknown mushrooms will off course land on your A. bitorquis substrate, but since it is already colonized, nothing bad should happen.
I would be more concerned by green and black molds which could also be in the cellar, those could potentially contaminate and destroy the substrate.

Cultivation / Newbie question about Agaricus...
Last post by mikepellerin - April 29, 2014, 10:28:51 PMAs the title suggests, I'm a newbie to mushroom growing. I want to grow Agaricus bitorquis (this will be from a kit), but I have a question about possible cross breeding/contamination.
I live in New England in an old post-victorian house that has a tamped earth/victorian construct basement. It maintains the proper temps for mushroom growing, but sometimes when we heavy rains, I get some water in there. This often produces some fungi (mushrooms) of unknown type on the floor.
My question is this: Will the appearance of these unknown mushrooms contaminate my planted stock. My kit will be well above the floor.
Thank you in advance,
mikepellerin

Cultivation / Re: Sclerotia Panaeolus subbal...
Last post by fmrc - April 29, 2014, 11:22:38 AMTo my knowledge, that species does not produce sclerotia. Is there a chance it is some other culture and is marked wrong? I will say those do not look like any other sclerotia I am familiar with. If that culture does produce Panaeolus subbalteatus mushrooms, you have stumped your toe on a new find. Get back to me with pictures of the mushrooms. I will then tell you what to do from there. Send information to floridamycology@cs.com

Cultivation / What should they look like?
Last post by lowartgloominati6 - April 28, 2014, 12:19:37 PMI was on rollitup but didn't get any straight answers and I found this forum So I will post my question here
I bought $50 worth of syringes and had 12 quart jars that only turned out to have one jar... (sterility issues) I started the whole process in November/December
I wasn't around to see the mycelium grow or to see the condition in which they were kept because after I ordered the syringes the cops showed up at my sisters house and we had to store everything elsewhere.
so now I have one jar that looks pretty nice.
What does it look like when it starts to get oxygen lol Its been in a closed jar since november/december and now after i took it out its fuzzy its still white but now its fuzzy and does it actually take up to 2 weeks to start pinning?
