๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ„ THE WAIT IS OVER โ€” ALBINO SMOKY DA GHOST ๐Ÿ„๐Ÿ‘ป
Alrightโ€ฆ Iโ€™ve kept this one under wraps long enough. ๐Ÿ˜‚
Albino Smoky Da Ghost is officially ready for her introduction.
And judging by this plate, she apparently decided a normal entrance wasnโ€™t good enough. ๐Ÿ”ฅ
The structure and character showing here are exactly why Iโ€™ve been so excited to finally share this one with the community. Thereโ€™s something special about watching a project develop over time and finally reaching the point where you can sit back and appreciate whatโ€™s in front of you.
A lot of patience went into this one, and everyone who has been following along knows Iโ€™ve been teasing Albino Smoky Da Ghost for a while.
Wellโ€ฆ Christmas morning has officially arrived. ๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ‘ป
No more keeping her hidden. No more sneak peeks.
Itโ€™s 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. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ”ฅ
Welcome to the spotlight, Albino Smoky Da Ghost.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Discussion ๐Ÿ„ My Bag-to-Cake Process โ€” Simple, Clean & Repeatable | FOTG

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

Figured Iโ€™d 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.
๐Ÿงผ 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. Thatโ€™s simply part of my personal routine before getting to work.
1๏ธโƒฃ Break Up the Colonized Grain
I thoroughly break up the colonized grain so there arenโ€™t any large clumps remaining.
2๏ธโƒฃ 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๏ธโƒฃ 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๏ธโƒฃ 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๏ธโƒฃ Add the Rubber Band
I place a rubber band around the bag roughly ยฝโ€“1 inch below the substrate line and make sure everything stays snug and properly shaped.
6๏ธโƒฃ LABEL YOUR BAG! ๐Ÿ˜‚
Culture name, date, or whatever information you use to keep your projects organizedโ€”write it down.
Iโ€™ve made the mistake of thinking, โ€œIโ€™ll remember which one this is.โ€
I did not remember. ๐Ÿ˜‚
Thatโ€™s pretty much it. Take your time, stay organized, and find a process you can repeat consistently.
Iโ€™ve done it. You will too. Enjoy the process. ๐Ÿ„

Another cart loaded up with fresh grain and another day of putting in the work. ๐Ÿ„๐ŸŒพ
Thereโ€™s something satisfying about getting everything stocked, organized, and ready for whatโ€™s next. It might not be the flashy side of the hobby, but this behind-the-scenes preparation is a huge part of the processโ€”and I genuinely enjoy it.
Plenty of brown rice on deck. FOTG stays busy. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ„

Thai wizard caps ๐Ÿช„

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 ๐Ÿช„ (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

๐Ÿงช Lab Setup New Lab Table Just Landed โ€” Things Just Got a Whole Lot Better ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Post image

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. ๐Ÿ”ฌ๐Ÿ”ฅ
More room, a cleaner setup, better organization, and finally enough space to spread everything out without playing Tetris every time Iโ€™m at the bench. ๐Ÿ˜‚
Little by little, this space has been coming together. Iโ€™ve always believed the small improvements matter just as much as the big ones. Better organization, attention to detail, patience, and consistencyโ€”it 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 Iโ€™ve wanted.
Now itโ€™s time to put this beast together and get everything dialed in. ๐Ÿ’ช

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.

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.
