    Precolonized or just substrate? I wonder if a grow lamp would work. Pretty pricey though for electricity.

      Just the substrate. I use the syringes I buy online because it’s the easiest method for me. I’m not actually sure pre-colonized would be “legal” for my “microscope” hobby. Ahem.

      Mostly it’s just B+, which I enjoy and it’s simple to grow. Golden Teacher was also easy, but the yield was less.

          Well, low might be relative to your expectations. How many grams did you want vs what you got?

          I see some people on Reddit with huge-ass yields. Like, fist-sized caps. wtf. Ultimately, I got the amount I wanted to use out of it.

            I saw roughly 11 grams dried. Was expecting 3x the amount judging by everyone’s’ impressive grows haha.

              Wow that is low. I got about 60g dry.

              Did you have a pump keeping it moist?

                  The good ole onion belt.

                  That’s probably why. I had a whole humidified thing and timed lights. It wasn’t expensive, and it came in a kit. Give it another shot.

                    Ooo pre-pasteurized manure bags with self healing injection holes. I’ve been using brown rice flour and coco coir 🤪
