Speaking of deep conversationalists……where the fook is @arty zan …….:rofl:
Hey @Frank the Dank :d5::smoking:
It's nice to be missed!:bighug:
It's the Mushroom season brother, the time of the year where I disappear up the hills for a month or so!
I will drop in from time to time in between fungal forays.

Late season due to the dry summer and warm autumn temps.
It is a La Nina Year - La Nina is the opposite to El Nino.
La Nina is a weather system that cools the southern Atlantic water, which leads High Pressure to sit over the northern Atlantic.
This produces warmer that the seasonal average temperatures over the UK September through to Oct/Nov!
In La Nina years the winters is often harsh and very cold, the UK normally has cool Summers and warm winters. Not this year, huh?
Record UK summer temp in 2022 at 40C for week on end!

I only just found my first 30 Libs of the year near me.
Wales is in full swing and hopefully I land a good catch!

Amanita Muscaria AKA Fly Agaric season is also here and I need to go looking for those too.
Whilst on the Fly Agaric hunt, I will be keeping an eye out for Psilocybe Cyanescens AKA Wavy Caps/Blue Leg Brownies!
A word of caution "Psilocybe Cyanescens" can in somecases cause "Wood Lovers Paralysis" - The wood lovers in this case are the fungi, who grow on decaying wood.

Some people don't have the paralysis, whereas some get it in the jaw and hands etc, and occasionally full paralysis.
It seems that the paralysis is not a pure paralysis but more of an overwhelming weakness, users say they still fell they can move their body parts, it is just that there is no energy and just feel weak.

One guy who had "WLP" took one hours to walk 200 meters to his car, only to find that when he eventually got to the car he was too weak to open the door!

The paralysis usually wears of after a couple of hours, with no lasting effects.
However due to the possibility of WLP it would be advised to use at home and with trusted friends or family near by!

Wavy caps are not native to the UK and probably arrived on imported wood chips from America.
Wavy Caps are more frequently found in the southern England but are slowly moving North.
They grow in groups and the largest of which was found on a race course at a Southern English race course, where wood chips are used to soak up much of the horses doings and the wood chips have a sweet piney scent which also cover up the smell of said horses doings!
So you want to know how many "Wavy Caps" were found at the race course? 100,000 in one place (I imagine that was on the dung pile"

Wavy caps are hard to grow indoor due to lower temps needed, however a bed of spawn and sterilized wood chips can be made in to a grow bed out doors. check the internet if you want to do that, as I need to work on making a how to.
In the mean time I am too busy to write how to's, "thars shrooms in them thar hills" and I need to go picking before the frosts arrive!
The season is already late and possibility of a cold winter means I need to go picking before frost end it until next year.
I hope this post hasn't been too garrulous for you, I'd hate to be accused of prolix :crying:

I like it. It's very stabile and nice and clear. Pretty concentrated, so it's not really that expensive. 1ml each of a+b equals 100ppm for grow and bloom. Main issue is the caps leak on every bottle, so it makes a mess when I shake em. The b gets pretty crusty

When I was using liquid nutrients I had the same issue. I ended up carving a small hole in the cap and inserting a bit of tubing attached to a syringe. Never broke the factory seal. Just tightened the cap a bit and if it still leaked, a bead of silicone around it. Seemed to work pretty well and made dosing easy.


Silicone seals:

Regular caulk as I was out of silicone. Never contacts the liquid so seemed safe enough.
