Basic Cultivation - Tools I Need
The first thing you'll need to decide is what species or strain to cultivate. You may find gathering your supplies a tedious task, but it's not. You could probably grow cubensis with the materials you have at your disposal right now (i.e. plastic bowls, foil, and that's almost about it, disregarding ingredients of course)...
Let's get started. Here's a list of minimal items you will need to at least kick-off your cubensis cultivation.
INGREDIENTS
Spore Syringe, 10-12 cc (filled with spores)
Organic Brown Rice Flour
Vermiculite (medium/fine)
Water (distilled preferable)
EQUIPMENT
12 x Glass Jars with lids (e.g. Consol or canning jars)
Hammer and small nail
Measuring cup
Mixing bowl
Strainer
Heavy duty tin foil
Large cooking pot with tight lid, for steaming
Small towel (or approx. 10 paper towels)
Micropore tape
Clear plastic storage box, 50-115L (Addis containers)

Perlite
Mist spray bottle
HYGIENE SUPPLIES
Rubbing alcohol
Butane/propane torch lighter
