    It’s been a crazy turn of events recently, in the middle of transferring work sites which I’m ok with since I’m in need of a new chapter. Also pushed to be even closer to home commute wise even though this was a forced transition. Long story short I have always kept my personal life private at work and never even disclose who is related to me when I go work with someone I know. Well long story short somehow someone in the company found out and it required me to be moved around which is ok since they were singling out other locations I have worked at before. Was glad to see some “favorited” people getting the boot as well so it all worked out, I was counting the days when certain issues would be cleared up. Regardless I work anywhere just fine, and looking forward to a fresh start. I will miss my amazing team, but I left something behind there memory wise like at all of the previous kitchens I have worked at with different cooks. This one was how amazing my grilled chicken is and honestly I don’t blame the Marines I feed or even my fellow staff. It makes me happy that I’m bringing quality to those that deserve it well. Now it’s time to bring that energy with me and see what this place can do!

    My Comfrey plant eating up everything the ground has to offer. After I transplanted it I threw some of my compost around it including the palm tree leaves that were broken down but still stayed in its full form. I must say it really loved those nutrients. After watering it and letting it do its thing, it has taken over the whole section of that wall where rain run off goes too. Now that being a natural net I won’t be having that issue no more. Plus unlimited natural fertilizer it’s all a win win for me!

    Those mushrooms were pretty old. Maybe I should boost them with some of my new ones.
    Maybe I'll just lay down a bit first......


    Oh boy was that a good call!

    Finally got some Cayenne pepper seedlings taking off! Done with Fox Farm Oceanforest soil with a guarantee of growth. Once these seedlings grow out of the red cups I’ll be transplanting them to 5 gallon or the 7gallon Walmart reusable grow bags. Moral of the story though. Never use cheap potting soil for starting any plant out. Use the real good stuff for root development and water it well. Then once it grows out of its first container with developed roots transplant it using any old potting soil that drains well, Miracle Grow, Walmart, Home Depot and Lowe’s brands work well for developed plants. But for starting a seedling out Fox Farm is by far superior!

    @rambling-rabbit Are we going to get the old trip reports from the old site? I had some really good ones.

    Update, unfortunately the seedling I carefully transferred over didn’t hold up. It was an old seed tested, but went ahead and ordered some more. As for doing any lab work in my work space there has been an ongoing heat wave that even at night it’s incredibly hot. I sweat a lot when it comes to this climate and don’t want to risk contaming my new Agar batch. Once the weather cools down I’ll be making the tutorial for Agar tek. Fortunately I have some cups left that work and I can easily transfer the MGT project being my GT isolation. Once it grows out I’ll send it to sterile water solution and get some jars inoculated during the evening. Hopefully the temps drop a bit soon that I can comfortably pour my Agar in front of the flowhood. As for inoculating jars I have no problems with it in the SAB even during the times I sweat a bit but that’s because I “season” my SAB with 70% ISO in a spray bottle. I treat my SAB like I treat my work grill. A reliable simple tool that needs to be seasoned for regular consistent sterile work. Only thing I can’t do with it is pour agar but that’s what the mini flowhood is floor. Or in front of the oven cracked open at 250°f if that’s all you have at home. I miss doing that, someday when I have my own place I be back to doing that. For now I make due with what I got. 6qt instant pot for cooking agar, transfer to media bottles for PC sterilization and it’s a wrap for the most part. Though tutorial wise it looks like I’ll be making jars again, this time I’ll be doing it with my bag of Oats since I got plenty of it. For grain bags I’m only doing that for the Popcorn tek since it works well. For bags I just drop the Agar in, the LIT Tek (Liquid Inoculate Tek) is best used for only jar inoculations only. Over time I’ll explain my reasons why and it will become clearer over time. Stay tuned and Mush love! Also can’t wait for my plants to take off!

    OMG I have too tell everyone before my thought leaves my head. It was so cute . I did a closed eye session. It was amazing this cute girl she looked like a doctor she was trying give me instructions she came up with her little pad and it was hard for me too understand what she wanted and I lost thought a finger came into vision it said strike one like it was counting down I had a certain amount of temps to get it right. But the little girl she was scared of me she backed away in fear and something told her no try again with him try again and she came back with a little pad trying too get me too figure it out I tried again I couldn't get the puzzle. I scared her again and you put the pad tight closer and she backed away really scared of me and something in the distance told her to try again and she came up with her little pad and she was trying to get me to understand it I couldn't understand the language on the pad and I got another strike and I just gave up I said I'm sorry I can't I can't figure it out I apologized I opened my eyes I couldn't do what it wanted but it was so cute the way she came up in curiosity to me and she was instructed to give me instructions I felt sad I'd scared her there's a difference between going in with eyes open and I shut. There you're definitely are intelligent beings in there trying too instruct us. I closed my eyes again and jester looking things popped by this time I was fading out all they could is laugh at me like it was a joke I could solve the puzzle. All three pointed at me and laughed. And now I'm back like nothing happened but my memory of the experience. Thank you all for being here and supporting this channel I appreciate you all

    Official Tutorial Drop coming up soon! Stay tuned! Got some free time coming up and I’m going to teach all of my teks with the emphasis of why I recommend this and how it is easier to manage if you are super busy like me but don’t want to stop researching or risking nasty burnout that you fall behind on certain projects. Have no fear though! You will see how powerful Agar work is and why I highly recommend to only do just Agar while turning that into a sterile solution that can be easily inoculated in your quart or pint mason jars. You don’t need to make an LC or wait for one, you don’t have to buy syringes or needles, if you have minimal space you can store more Agar cups versus jars of culture. Also in the event you need to do an emergency “clean up” for whatever reason this specific tek will save you from trouble. Also shelf and space friendly that for a personal grow whether if it’s gourmets or medicinals you can fit them all in the same space. For example top 2 shelf’s are for gourmet fruiting blocks, the middle to almost bottom 2 for the actives. The very bottom shelf is for putting your dehydrator for your fruits and additional storage space for your mycology supplies. I also have a second shelf that is simply for organizing and putting all of my mycology stuff in one place. The Bag tek which has gotten to be very popular for good reasons guarantees you big success, there is no misting or fanning involved. All you do is let it grow and you cut the bag a certain way for gourmets and a different way for actives. Flushing them is easy, just heavily mist the block. Once your substrate shrinks, you can send it to compost and then throw the bag in your recycling bin. It will get acceptable no problem and make it waste free. Only time you may have to throw it all away is if you got trich growing. No need to open the bag, just throw the disaster out as I’m sure it will eventually eat through the plastic lol. Either way being a teacher here is giving me the excitement to grow again!

    How life has been by far, after Sony announced that it will no longer produce physical games and Xbox is overcharging on even owning a new console I simply said that is it! I refuse to ever support any of these big companies with newer products that I will never own. As a retro gamer who never sold his collection and never will I’m proud to be apart of the Cyberpunk group who is on board saying FU we will own and find ways to keep our stuff running even though you will try to take us down it won’t happen, whether I get my hands on physical copies or I ROM and Emulate right off my Gaming Laptop, If I’m not able to own my digital games outright with the quote being “If buying isn’t ownership, then piracy can no longer be considered as theft!” Me and brother have talked about building our own console together but have it run off of Linux. I honestly feel like Neo in the Matrix, I know my role as an agent in the Matrix, I know jiu-jitsu, I have taken a lot of Mushrooms in my first 6 years of it and have begun to see how we are living in a simulation seeing binary codes and living off of an Algorithm. Understanding how other agents operate while learning to stay under 5 stars is a unique skill in itself, having good character, discipline and judgement does bless you. Whether if it’s God or the Medicine they will bless you for doing good. I was also happy to acquire the GTA Trilogy for my PS2, I have it on PC but I game more console due to convenience on my days off. I wasn’t happy with the remaster I have on 360. Lots of bugs and glitches for 360 San Andreas since it was a bad port from mobile. I’m ok with starting over the game just so I can properly see the cutscenes work. It’s still playable but it’s simply a back up copy that won’t beat the original or unbugged version. Either way, I’m amazed at how well put together I became, the mushrooms were never a cure for me, it was a treatment that required integration and hard work. Now that I feel better achieved, I’m ready to dose again! Mush love

    After grounding this beauty properly it is not only looking better it is loving the earth and will create a good net to prevent rain run off. Goal is to have it take over the whole slope and have a natural way to retain the water run off when raining or to hold onto it well so it can absorb well. This Boking 4 variety was the right choice, not only do I have access to cheap animal fodder the leaves sizes are perfect for me chopping and dropping onto my Smart Pot garden. Also happy to have this compostable material and love that it’s fixing the soil quality not far from the fruit trees. The fact the root system on Boking 4 Comfrey will go 6-8ft under ground makes me excited for the natural minerals to be pulled up and making this all fertile. No need for me to raise rabbits or anything. I now will have unlimited high quality fertilizer, compost feed, animal fodder for future farm animals and of course herbal medicine whenever I hurt my foot. Such a beneficial plant, Brother Joey Green if you are reading this, I really appreciate your recommendation for the best multiple purpose plant that can be used for many amazing things!
