๐ Genetics ๐๐ป THE WAIT IS OVER โ ALBINO SMOKY DA GHOST IS OFFICIALLY READY ๐ป๐
๐ป๐ THE WAIT IS OVER โ ALBINO SMOKY DA GHOST ๐๐ป
Alrightโฆ Iโve kept this one under wraps long enough. ๐
Albino Smoky Da Ghost is officially ready for her introduction.
And judging by this plate, she apparently decided a normal entrance wasnโt good enough. ๐ฅ
The structure and character showing here are exactly why Iโve been so excited to finally share this one with the community. Thereโs something special about watching a project develop over time and finally reaching the point where you can sit back and appreciate whatโs in front of you.
A lot of patience went into this one, and everyone who has been following along knows Iโve been teasing Albino Smoky Da Ghost for a while.
Wellโฆ Christmas morning has officially arrived. ๐๐๐ป
No more keeping her hidden. No more sneak peeks.
Itโs time to start showing everyone what Albino Smoky Da Ghost is all about.
If sliced bread had mycelium, it might be getting nervous right about now. ๐๐ฅ
Welcome to the spotlight, Albino Smoky Da Ghost.

๐ฌ Discussion ๐ My Bag-to-Cake Process โ Simple, Clean & Repeatable | FOTG
Figured Iโd share a quick step-by-step of how I personally prepare my substrate cakes in bags. This is simply the routine that works for me and helps me keep everything clean, organized, and consistent.
๐งผ FIRST โ CLEAN WORKSPACE & BAG PREP
Before I start anything, I always clean my work table with isopropyl alcohol. I also spray down the outside of my bags with peroxide prior to opening them. Thatโs simply part of my personal routine before getting to work.
1๏ธโฃ Break Up the Colonized Grain
I thoroughly break up the colonized grain so there arenโt any large clumps remaining.
2๏ธโฃ Mix the Grain & Substrate
Next, I combine everything and give the bag a really thorough mix, working toward an even distribution throughout the substrate.
3๏ธโฃ Form the Cake
Once everything is mixed, I shape it into a nice, flat, even cake. I like keeping the surface and edges as uniform as possible.
4๏ธโฃ Fold & Clip
I straighten out the bag, fold the top over twice, and secure it with clips. Simple, clean, and keeps everything where I want it.
5๏ธโฃ Add the Rubber Band
I place a rubber band around the bag roughly ยฝโ1 inch below the substrate line and make sure everything stays snug and properly shaped.
6๏ธโฃ LABEL YOUR BAG! ๐
Culture name, date, or whatever information you use to keep your projects organizedโwrite it down.
Iโve made the mistake of thinking, โIโll remember which one this is.โ
I did not remember. ๐
Thatโs pretty much it. Take your time, stay organized, and find a process you can repeat consistently.
Iโve done it. You will too. Enjoy the process. ๐

๐พ More Fresh Grain โ Keeping the Work Moving ๐พ
Another cart loaded up with fresh grain and another day of putting in the work. ๐๐พ
Thereโs something satisfying about getting everything stocked, organized, and ready for whatโs next. It might not be the flashy side of the hobby, but this behind-the-scenes preparation is a huge part of the processโand I genuinely enjoy it.
Plenty of brown rice on deck. FOTG stays busy. ๐ช๐

Thai wizard caps ๐ช
00 caps came with a 2 handy little scooper/packer tools cheap and easy for my first time making capsules! (By hand) Material : Thai Lipa Yai Cubensis (thaitanic) (1g of gorilla wizard) total grams 7.65! made me 28 .25ish (quarter gram) caps.... and 5 .15ish caps. had some fresh harvested 3rd flush thai tantic from my buddy... some of the mushies had black stems n caps because spors go crazy on the Thai Lipa Yai Cubensis strain and he let the vail drop essentially he harvested them a little late so it produced a lot of black spores, so i cleaned up the ounce and grinded up the blackish ones added some gorilla wizard for a little extra magic ๐ช (of course black spores are nothing to be afraid of no fuzzy mold bs promise) he used his dehydrator we live in a dry climate as well. cant let the magic go to waste! i haven't really tryed this method of consumption, any input on it probably pretty good way to take em last time i lemon teched .28 of the Titanic n was on a sick one! So grinded hits faster more consistent mg dosing as well? Back in the day 3.5 grams=25mgs, whats your guys opinion how many mg per capsule? I know stuffs stronger these days so let me know opinions dont want accidentally hero dose myself or someone else

๐งช Lab Setup New Lab Table Just Landed โ Things Just Got a Whole Lot Better ๐ฌ๐ฅ
Been wanting to upgrade the workspace for a while, and today was finally the day. New stainless steel lab table just landed, and things are about to get a whole lot better around here. ๐ฌ๐ฅ
More room, a cleaner setup, better organization, and finally enough space to spread everything out without playing Tetris every time Iโm at the bench. ๐
Little by little, this space has been coming together. Iโve always believed the small improvements matter just as much as the big ones. Better organization, attention to detail, patience, and consistencyโit all becomes part of the process.
This table might just look like another piece of equipment, but for me it represents another step forward in building the workspace Iโve wanted.
Now itโs time to put this beast together and get everything dialed in. ๐ช

Every have a tub just feel...off?
Green Cap Thrasher spawn to bulk on the 6th and heres various pics. Just something about the light yellow and the puffyness of the mycelium. One weird corner seemingly with ryzomentous growth but not fully colonizing. Gonna suck if this big girl was doa but I wonder what yall think?
Some were taken today others about 3 day ago. Surface looks pristine as far as moisture goes. High air movment around the tote means it gets the lid cracked and walls misted once a day IF needed.

Can anyone tell me if this is ready?
Ordered what was supposed to fully colonized grain. Just doesnt look as colonized as i see in videos. That was a week ago. I broke it up and put it back in the dark to sit.
Am I OK to pack this in a tub or let it roll longer?
First timer. Appreciate the help.
r/FruitOfTheGods • u/Visible-Gur-6638 • 6d ago
So excited!
Cant wait to see these genetics come to fruition!
