I wanted to announce some success in my endeavours.
Any future success or failure will come as responses to this thread.
I inoculated 10 1/2 pint BRF substrate jars via PF Tek this past Saturday. Upon inspection today there is healthy mycelium growth in most of my jars around the inoculation points, less than 5 days in. I’ll have to wait one more week to see what’s going on and if there may be any jars lost to contamination. So far so good, though! It could take anywhere from just one more week to many more. One cannot rush nature. The growth so far is not significant enough to warrant photos or video. So far so good, though! I hope to update in the near future with photographs.
The strain used is B+:

Will be preparing more containers to inoculate with P. huautla (cubensis) in the next day or so. It’s also a cubensis. Apparently any cubensis can be reared with minimal investment in the same manner.
Send me good vibrations, my peoples. 😉 Success or failure I will be certain to update.
Some history of Huautla: This is the village in Mexico where Maria Sabina:

The famed shaman who performed sacred mushroom rituals for the Beatles, Watson, Timothy Leary, etc. lived. These are THE SAME MUSHROOMS.
Hopefully they will grow for me and allow me to experience something interesting. 😉
Only time can tell. It’s out of my hands, at this point.
Your good vibes are much appreciated. So nifty to be helping these proud little soldiers grow thanks to my own efforts. :dancer:
