Doesn't look like those auto genetics are quite worked out fully! Well at least the thing has a pretty damn good root system established!

I've actually started trimming the roots on plants I'm growing in DWC. After doing some reading, they don't need a huge root mass because they don't have to seek out nutrients, and it keeps the roots from getting long, breaking and then rotting in the nutrient solution. Since I started doing it, I've not seen any impact on the plants but the nutrient water stays a lot cleaner.

I don't know what the hell this is but I think they probably should have smoked more pot! Maybe they wouldn't went so crazy!

This person also went through quite a few surgical procedures that the physician that performed them probably should not have a medical license. There comes a time when a Physician needs to evaluate a person's mental state went before performing elective surgery.


SAD!

Nah, just growing some for a friend who was interested. I had some spores left and I told him I'd grow him some. I'm growing 2 shoe boxes full, but one of them got a Trichoderma infection.

How hard is it to make a spore print or whatever the hell i would need to do if i wanna try to grow some of the ones bro in law has right now?

Very difficult unless you have a clean room. Growing mushrooms is really hard because of the cleanliness required. You'll need to make a spore print, then transfer spores to agar and wait for them to grow, then isolate the mycelium before transferring to a medium like grain to grow. Spore prints are dirty and if you just try to use one and put it in grain, you'll just get a bacterial or fungal outbreak.

I have only had luck with using a growth medium, like 8oz distilled water with 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, and pressure cooking that. Then, using a fresh syringe and in an extremely clean area, split a fresh mushroom in half, and take a sample of it with the syringe and then inject it into the nutrient liquid. About 50/50 you'll get a clean sample and in a few weeks have clean looking mycelium floating in the liquid. You can then use that nutrient culture to inject on grain to grow.

Weed is SO much easier to grow.
