This is the way. This is why I said in my first comment it's all about the practice. Once you know what these guys want you just give it to them. Our shroomy bois do what they do just fine on their own. I would get an amazing first flush. An ok second flush. Then (in the summer) I'd take the cake out and burry it under the mulch around my house and water the area. In a week I'd have another flush come up and those mushrooms were the physically strongest shrooms I have ever felt. Like I had to work to cut them off at the stem.

I dry everything in a dehydrator then toss them in a food processor/blender and turn them to powder. Got a 000 sized capsule filler and make 0.5 gram capsules you can just down. Or if you want to do the lime/lemon juice soak method and strain just measure out how much you want by popping open the capsules. Super convenient. I haven't grown in a few years now. I sold some to a few buddies that took them for anxiety purposes which is why I grew them too. I had so much excess I still have some in air tight jars in a deep freeze.

Oh and one more thing. I once forgot about a bin in a closet and 2 weeks later is had grow this fucking demigod that weighed 274grams wet weight. The thing was so big it was pushing the lid off the box.
