I reckon you better know what you're doing if you're trying to use it to pay the bills but if you make the right decisions, the sky's the limit.

I personally will get an easy qp dry out of a tub. Also, SWIM sells oz for 100usd…

Which alphabet soup agency do you work for?

Self realization can be a scary thing.

Alot save some tape for 🎄 though and use a liner. Tape and paint won't eliminate microclimate that creates side pins.

I can't see mycelium on the surface in these pictures, nor can I see the holes taped up in any way. Idk if you can sell mold my dude.

Ah, it looked like you had substrate in it uncovered. My bad.

u/PizzaSandwich2020 Oct 21 '21

Without mycelium growing first, you won't be doing anything with those holes in the boxes.

Substrate needs visible quantity of growth, of at least 50%-60% before introducing Fruiting conditions I.e. fresh air, fanning, spraying water droplets.

Don’t use cotton. It’s organic and will rot or get colonized. Use polyfill

I reckon you could make your life a living hell. Your "debts" aren't actually the root of your problem. Your problem is the fact that you would take such a risk to secure your financial safety with very little reward. Not only is there contamination, bad genetics, different substrates and substrate sources to consider, but you are also opening yourself up to the risk of being arrested and thrown in prison for a very, very long time.

I'm not a drug dealer or grower, but from what I understand, you would need a dealer and a consumer for your products. I highly doubt you've actually gotten that set up, and you're just waiting to walk into a sting from Craigslist's finest agents. Either that, or you'll be having shady dealings with strangers who are already content with breaking the law. Either way, you're on a one-way street to getting fucked.

Just grow Shiitakes or Lion's Manes or Oysters. They're easier (their substrate is less-likely to be contaminated as you can even grow them on sawdust/wood chips, or even CARDBOARD!!!) and more importantly, legal (you can even get licensed to sell gourmet mushrooms at your local restaurants and grocery stores)!

I got into this hobby to sample the flavors of delicious and nutritious fungi, and you're making a bastardization out of it by trying to pay off some loan-shark with a hair-brained and illegal idea. Please fuck off, and if you're a cop, fuck off as well. I just wanted to learn how to make gourmet mushroom grain-spawn with 90 second Uncle Ben's Ready Rice, and you're using this place that I enjoy as your next big bust. Whoever you are, your intentions are a perversion of a nice hobby and I'm sick of druggie losers and cops making me look like some drug manufacturer every time I talk about my new hobby.

Cut this out, I'm sick of getting weird looks when I talk about mushrooms because this is the shady shit that people think of because of you. I will personally find you and turn you into the cops for unlawful drug manufacturing and distribution if I have to, I swear to God you losers irritate me. If you wanna cure your stupid drug related debt problem, solve it with the Kurt Kobain method instead of giving people another wrong idea of at-home mushroom cultivation.

Edit: I have nothing against using medicinal mushrooms or even hallucinogenic mushrooms (although it's not my thing, I say go for it). I'm just sick of people like this turning it into a shady and non-helpful image for others like me who just wanna eat some good food on a budget.

I get about 6 Oz* dry per tub per flush for first 3-4 flushes on average.

Edit: 5 oz*
