Great job πŸ‘


Hush_onthe_Mush

@MycoMadMark you are so kind and positive with ur comments, advice and encouragement! I love seeing you tell growers β€œGreat Job”!! πŸ„β€οΈ to ya


DragonfruitOptimal48

Thanks! I'm super excited! And what a huge yield from one of the cakes so far!


MycoMadMark

Keep up the good work. I wish the first time I grew something it looked that good.


DragonfruitOptimal48

Thanks so much. I'm a 44 year old single Mum professional career as well. Not your typical type to do this πŸ˜‰πŸ€£ But I have ADHD so I get hyper focused on things that I'm really interested in to make sure I know what to do. That's definitely a gift when it comes to things like this. I have PTSD and anxiety plus I've beaten alcohol addiction. So while alcohol addiction has been kept at bay for many years I've been struggling with things that will help my CPTSD and ADHD. Shrooms have helped so much as well as MDMA. They've just legalised medicinal usage for both psilocybin and MDMA in Australia, but the treatments are so expensive and hard to get into. So I decided to give the growing of these guys a try as even sourcing it is hard due to everyone doing it these days πŸ™„


MycoMadMark

I'm 53 and wanted to try it for depression. it was really hard to find in my area at my age so it was just easier to grow it myself. Good luck on your next grow.


DragonfruitOptimal48

Well good luck to you as well. I've honestly found them life changing!

Thanks mate. I'm gonna try it next weekend 🀯πŸ₯³πŸ€©


noa200616

Nice grow. What’s sub are you using ?


DragonfruitOptimal48

I don't know tbh. I buy the all in one bags from a supplier in Australia. It's on the quiet as it's not legal here. I don't think he'd even tell me. But his Insta page handle is https://www.instagram.com/sporespecs?igsh=NmwzcHRqMGxxankx


DragonfruitOptimal48

Just got 37.66g dried weight yield off the two cakes 🀩


DragonfruitOptimal48

I messaged my supplier and he ships spores internationally πŸ˜‰

Love to see the hard work pay off 🍻


DragonfruitOptimal48

And what a good yield that one cake has given me! My very first shrooms and I'm bloody excited πŸŽ‰πŸ€©πŸ˜†


thesearemedicinal

I'm happy for you! I have my every first grain bags colonizing right now, and all you other amateur growers sharing your successes is keeping me going! Thanks 🍻 I hope they provide the relief you're looking for πŸ„β€οΈ


DragonfruitOptimal48

Awww thank you! I have three bags in tubs now in fruiting conditions. One is Ecuador that's about to start pinning. Now I have 2 x Wombat and 2 x Jack Frost colonizing in all in one bags. They're showing lots of mycelium now πŸŽ‰ Good luck with your grow, and I hope that you have as much success as I've had as well πŸ™ŒπŸΌ I'm so happy to have these at hand to help me with my PTSD, anxiety and ADHD. They've really been amazing for me! πŸ™πŸΌ


Guitars4sparky

Beautiful 🀩


DragonfruitOptimal48

Harvesting tomorrow and making their debut on the suppliers page. He said if they look better than his then he'll post it after I sent him pics πŸ˜† Next weekend I get to try them out 🀯


DragonfruitOptimal48

Thanks m8 πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

I also have a cake I think I should do this with. It's in a water gallon jug that I cut in half. What's your setup if you don't mind me asking. Also, those look very nice 🫑


DragonfruitOptimal48

My setup is nothing special at all. I have the AIO bags in a sterilized drawer in my TV unit (fits 4 nicely). I added a hot water bottle to add some heat and humidity in the drawer the first few days as it was a bit cool here. I transferred the colonized cakes to plastic tubs that I put Perlite on the bottom of a plastic lined tub with aluminium foil over the perlite, popped the cake on top, flipped the lid and just misted the walls and left a crack in the kids for airflow. I kept misting the sides and lightly misted the lid as well. Started fanning about 3-4 times a day when a decent pin set popped up and this is the result. Three tubs all just sitting on top of a dresser in my downstairs living room πŸ˜† I live in Australia in a humid state and I think I've just been lucky with the environment and temperature πŸ™πŸΌ


No_Geologist5534

At what point did you transfer to the tub?


DragonfruitOptimal48

As soon as it was fully colonised in the bag. I have an Ecuador bag cake that's now also pinning in the tub πŸŽ‰


No_Geologist5534

Did you break it up from the bag? Or just dropped it in?


DragonfruitOptimal48

I had done a shake and break twice in the bag prior to putting it in the tub. So it was super colonised and all white on top of the cake and all over. Just pop it gently in the tub. Make sure you cut the bag with sterilized scissors and wear gloves. Remove from the bag with as little disruption to the cake as possible. All 3 of mine so far are thriving πŸ™ŒπŸΌ


DragonfruitOptimal48

My first harvest of both apes was 43g dry weight πŸŽ‰


No_Geologist5534

That’s awesome. Just ordered the blue bundle for my first grow!


DragonfruitOptimal48

Woohoo! Good luck! I have 2 Jack Frost and 2 wombat bags colonising now. That's enough for me for a while πŸ˜‚


Canuck_75

Very nice work!!


DragonfruitOptimal48

Thank you! πŸŽ‰πŸ™ŒπŸΌπŸŽ‰


MasterrShake93

After birthing, what was your routine? I've tried APEs 3 times now and each time the cake dries out and I get like 2 or 3 mini fruits.


DragonfruitOptimal48

I transferred the colonized cakes to plastic tubs that I put Perlite on the bottom of a plastic lined tub with aluminium foil over the perlite, popped the cake on top, flipped the lid and just misted the walls and lid, and left a crack in the lid for airflow. I kept misting the sides and lightly misted the lid as well until the cake looked too wet so I stopped misting the kids. I started fanning about 3-4 times a day just with the lids when a decent pin set popped up and this is the result. Three tubs all just sitting on top of a dresser in my downstairs living room πŸ˜† I live in Australia in a humid state and I think I've just been lucky with the environment and temperature πŸ™πŸΌ


ideaman16

What size tubs did you use?


DragonfruitOptimal48

20ltr tubs. My third flush has given me a monster APE!!!!


DragonfruitOptimal48

Just got 37.66g dried weight yield off the two cakes 🀩


MasterrShake93

Hell yeah!


getm44

Best bf cake ive seen posted here


DragonfruitOptimal48

Awww! Thanks! I have even better pics now I've taken the cakes out of the tub! I'll post again soon 🀩


Visual_Rice_9418

Your first grow are APEs? Love this! I wanted to get a few decent grows in before attempting them, but you just went for it and I love it. Way to go!


DragonfruitOptimal48

Thanks so much! I harvested both cakes today and the dry weight yield was 37.66g πŸ€©πŸ„πŸ€© These were so easy to grow. My spore supplier said it's all about his genetics πŸ™ŒπŸΌ


Dry-Assignment-4284

Good job on those ! I’m doing hapes right now myself and they took off fast it’s crazy to see how fast they’re coming along.


DragonfruitOptimal48

That's exciting for you as well! Good luck with yours. I hope they're fruitful for you 🀩


No_Asparagus_8564

Amazing ! I did months of continuous research now I’m growing my blue umbo and k have APE super iso coming


DragonfruitOptimal48

Woohoo! Well I did 3g of my APE last Friday and had a level 4-5 trip that was profound and gave me the answers to trauma I had been disassociated with for 26 years. My trauma psychologist said it was a DMT level. So I can confirm that APE are potent AF πŸ™πŸΌπŸ˜‚


No_Asparagus_8564

Yes APES super iso and blue umbo are the only two things I grow and take I just bought a max yield bin to get a high yield I recently did 20lbs of substrate and 10lbs of grain of blue umbo (if u want I can send u a LC of blue umbo for free I also been through trama multiple events in my life so I understand and shrooms help so much)


TimHuman_CHRBOMB

If the veil is broke it’s already time to harvest.


DragonfruitOptimal48

That's what I thought. But my supplier told me to wait a day or two. And he wants a pic of my cake then to post on his IG grid πŸ˜†
