I agree, it looks very Native American inspired to me. Like some intertwining of legends, Wendigo and Raven with some extras.

That’s a good place to have an Outback, I imagine the lake effect snow is intense there!

Depends on where you live, if it’s not in Florida or somewhere sub-tropical most likely not. I’m really not sure about cow pastures, I’ve had friends when I lived in Florida that picked them in the wild and in pastures. There are many species of actives that grow in FL. I personally prefer to cultivate my own as there are many poisonous look-alikes and unless you know what you’re doing you could easily become very sick or die. There’s a reason for certain mushroom names like “destroying angel”.

Edit: If you live in Australia or the UK you may have some wild varieties. South America as well, lots of places around the world really, but only a few places in the US. I’m sure someone else on here is much more knowledgeable about the subject. I personally like to cultivate my own that way I know what I’m growing and that they are safe from contamination. It becomes second nature once you know what you’re doing and have done it a few times. Check out uncle bens tek, show box tek, and if you need spores look at spore traders but keep in mind those are for microscopy only.

Yes… Where did you think they came from originally? I’m honestly curious.

I’ve also heard that Monsanto feed prevents the spores from growing in/on poop. But I just heard that from someone when I lived in FL.

Thank you that makes sense!

Yeah I’m actually in a money pit myself, bought a used turbo outback from a dealer. Everything else on the car is good except the hoses are leaking in a lot of places, the valve covers are leaking, pcv valve, and both ball joints are bad. Already replaced the turbo so if I replace the other stuff it’ll be a nice ride but damn I didn’t expect it and got hit hard. But everything else in the car is good and has 120k now a stratus would be a bit different you’re right at that point I’d wash my hands with it. Older generation usually wants to fix things instead of buying newer even if it costs more but yeah that’s a bit ridiculous.

So recently, I heard someone on this sub after spawning to bull they said they always go into fruiting conditions. I have never tried this, why or why not might this be a good idea? I’ve always seemed to be on the slower side of colonizing bulk for some reason and I’m wondering if it’s FEA. I always eventually get great results it just takes more time than usual, I’m guessing it’s mostly temp, but I was curious if anyone puts theirs into fruiting conditions right after spawning to bull? That was the first time I heard of it and they looked like they had great and timely success.

Impressive you were able to reach the top speed of the Stratus on a tank trail!

Do they just send forklift trainees out in the floor of music equipment warehouses or what? I bought a fender from Musicians Friend a long time ago, and the repair tech (repairs were on warranty as long as it was through a Fender licensed tech) he said the amp had been dropped he could tell or taken a severe beating somehow. He said “let me guess you bought it from Musicians Friend…” I said yes. He said that he’s used to getting amps through there and just wrote it up as irreparable and I got a new amp shipped to him, which is ended up picking up. Anyway, he told me he once received an amp someone got from Musicians Friend that had two perfectly rectangular holes in the cab, clean through one of the speakers, they were from the tines/forks of a forklift… and they sent it out that way…

Sorry to hear of your misfortune, I hope you can get a new one shipped out at a discount l. Make sure you talk to someone on the phone because you can get huge discounts that way, either in this purchase or future ones.

Depression is terrible, I have it too, shrooms can. Be great teachers and tools but remember it’s up to you to make a conscious change within yourself. You’re feelings are valid, you matter, and bad times will give way just like the clouds, but be grateful for what you have and that can help.

Remember to breathe deep, take in what’s around you , be kind to yourself, write if you can, be grateful, and get outside in nature, get off your phone ha. Just my suggestions.

Yeah that’s Bastard of Muppets!

A gallon of PCP?

Did you just fit the base so you don’t have to deal with substrate the oxidation is negligible, but yeah if you’re slicing and dicing I imagine it would be noteworthy. I always dry my big guys while too, even if I have to squish them a bit to fit in the dehydrator.

Go ask your questions at r/shrooms most people are very helpful with cultivation questions there. Lots of time, love, and patience and you’ll have more than you know what to do with. Check out uncle bens tek and grow bulk don’t screw with cakes or all in one bags.

Get some silica packets, I keep mine in glass jars with silica packets out of the light in one of those fabric insulated lunch box type things. I’d guess that they would last a few years but never had them around that long. Moisture, heat, and sunlight are the worst enemy of actives.

Yeah they certainly don’t make them like they used to that’s for sure.

Exactly. Perfectly explained!

I’ve had some super super potent tabs before. To the uninitiated or someone on certain SSRI a potent single tab could definitely cause ego death, I saw it happen in a friend of mine.

The variation in potency is there, unless you dipped them yourself like someone else mentioned you don’t know. Sometimes the tabs in the center most portion of sheet are much more potent and so is the potential to get something that isn’t actually lsd. I would think gel tabs are more consistent.

Yeah I feel like half of the people that post those sorts of things are just people looking for attention in some weird way. I’m with you. I hate looking at screens, I usually turn off my phone and go outside in nature.
