has anyone here experienced ingesting two strains of mushrooms at the same time? i have two strains of cubensis (golden teacher and b+) and i was wondering weather they would be fun to mix.

sounds like a great idea! id do it.. .
What would happen if you injected your cakes w/ 2 different kinds of spores?
now theres a good question. my guess though would be that one species would outcompete the other one and destroy it. i cant wait to mix these mushies though and see what kind of time i have.
they would both grow, but you need to make sure that they can be grow under the same conditions, for example the temperature and moisture that is best for each of them.
i just realized that eating two strains of mushroom at once will be like inventing a new kind of mushroom. the trip is different from different strains because of the amounts of certain chemicals. mixing two strains would make a completely new percentage of each chemical, therefore a completely different mushroom. this will be a journey!

I am sure you would not notice a difference in the trip--since percentage of active alkaloids can vary from mushroom to mushroom even in the same specie---and innoculating a substrate with different varieties will almost always end up with one or the other, not both--whichever mycelium get a hold fastest and strongest will overtake the other one--just a waste of spores to do it like that
I dont think youd notice it either, you would be too far gone to be able to compare and i think the only difference in strains of mushroom is potency meaning youd just have to eat less of one than the other, but thats my opinion
hey mindz do you know if you can innoculate substrate with some mycelium from a already colonized cake instead of using spores everytime, to kind of a get a perpetual thing going or to turn 1 cake into however many cakes you want??
innoculating different strains in the same substrate would just make them battle for the territory, would be interesting to see who won
how could you not cringe at bush everytime you see him
Hi Takeflight--I am currently working on that process--of using already started mycelium--seems logical--I will try to update the progress in a week or so, basically all I have done so far is take a lid that was covered in mycelium and put new substrate on it and cased it after I took a cake off it and cased that-- I have always just washed off the mycelium that was left but thought why not give it a try! Have you experimented at all with it yet? Contamination will be the only reason I could see it failing--the mycel has food so it should continue to grow
Mycelium is fucking strange as all hell, even just pictures of it upclose are bizzare
You know how it can make jumps over gaps to find food just in small amounts like cakes, im curious as to how far a giant outdoor mycelium network(like an acre sized network) could jump, its all too interesting
What substrate mix are you using??? how long does it take your casings to pin???
here is a link to one of my small current grows with pics and progress:

I am using brf and verm for this one
