Suuuuuuuup.

This is my first post here (I lurk a lot on forums, please accept my mushroom beebs as tribute). I'm working on possibly getting a HART Ultimix system installed via grant funding, however I'm wondering how much of a difference there is between the $100 brass solenoids and the $17 ones? I can venture to guess quality, but can anyone describe what the weak points of a solenoid are? I have limited experience installing solenoids.

Butforealtho - I don't want to clean my hydrofoggers anymore lol

I had some friends ask me to make this. There’s definitely some Mycowizards wisdom and some Mycodon’t’s in there too haha.

Is there anyone making a small scale bag tumbler machine out there?

Hi All, newly joined. Zimbabwean born, UK Phd plant scientist specialising in plant fungal interactions now living in Katy, Texas. Been doing road trips throughout the US cloning wild cultivars and have recently started crossing commercial lines with some of the heat tolerant oysters I have found here in Texas to see if I can improve high temp tolerance during incubation and fruiting. Would be interested to know if anyone is working on using ITS or next-gen sequencing to try and characterise strains. My background expertise in plant science is actually using transcriptomics and phenomics to relate genetics to plant physiology. A lot of this is potentially transferable to mushroom cultivation and breeding so I was just curious if anyone is working on anything similar. Anyway still learning a lot about the practicality of growing at scale which is why I joined. Thought some of you might be interested in my janky Madgetec alternative. I have been trialling these meat thermometers in my substrate pasteurisation runs. Quite useful each probe has two temp sensors. If you place one at the centre of the bag and the other close to the surface you can track temperature transference during your run. Also as they are wireless I can track temp in real time. Not sure how long they will last but I got them cheap, second hand, so thought it was worth messing around with them.

Happy New Year crazy-mushroom people

Most consistent cultures hands down. CNS is the GOAT!!

Working at Mousam now. 2 weeks in. Pretty long days and so much different from laying bricks but its WICKED fun. I still cant believe im there as the Grow team manager but I have studied this shit and I worked for it thats For Sure. I get to work with a really awesome dude (E. Milligan) who has helped me greatly along the way.

I would anticipate the Next mycowizards podcast and just learn as much as possible. There's frigging so much good Info on here. Mushroom College Online.

Subject: Urgent Refund and Membership Cancellation Request

Dear MycoWizards Team,

I’m posting this on your Community Dashboard because I have no other way to contact you. If I’ve missed something, please accept my apology. I’ve searched everywhere and cannot find any listed email address or contact method. I don’t use social media apart from YouTube, so I genuinely don’t know how else to reach you.

I cancelled my membership last December, but it was automatically renewed in July and my card has been charged again since then. I did not confirm or authorise any renewal. Please issue a full refund for these charges, stop any further payments, and confirm that my membership has been fully cancelled as you told me it would be in December.

The email I previously replied to turned out to be a “do not reply” address, and my messages bounced back into my junk folder, which I only discovered recently. You can verify from my account history that I haven’t logged in since I originally cancelled.

I think your work is excellent and I mean no disrespect. I’m simply asking you to honour what was agreed, refund my money, and confirm cancellation. If you provide me with an active email address, I’ll gladly remove this post and continue the conversation privately.

Thank you for your understanding,

Jagmeet

Hello Mycowizards of the world. My name is Tyler. I am looking for USA grown cordyceps that doesn't break the bank. I typically grow my own, but just haven't had the time or space lately to grow a new batch. 

I'm hoping a generous mycowizard can help me out with finding a couple pounds, so that I can make a new batch of tincture. I am willing to pay a fair price, just hoping that it's less than the hundreds of dollars online sellers want for larger amounts. Thank you in advance for the help.

Hey Y'all, been growing for about 1.5 years and first time ran into this. Maybe 2 different problems. We made 20 blocks each of Lions Mane, Chestnut, and Black Pearl on 8/28. The black pearl bags look great. All of the lions mane and chestnut bags looking funky as hell.

Anything obvious come to mind when you see the photos?

All bags were made back to back in the lab that day. The blocks made the day before and a week later look great.

Thanks for any ideas in advance!
