I bought this Belicone Silicone Rubber rubber probably 20 years ago from Rio Grande. I use it for miniature crafting, so it has lasted me quite some time. Unfortunately, it is no longer available from what I can see, and I am hoping somebody can suggest an alternative. I really love it because it has a built in release, and has a somewhat greasy feel when initially mixing it. It has a consistency like silly putty before it sets. The tubs describe it as ‘cold molding silicone rubber’, an equal parts a b silicone rubber by B&B Benbassat LTD. Is anyone familiar with this that can suggest a similar alternative? Thank you so much for any tips!

My current grow is the first time I used a high ph casing layer to prevent tric. When I rehydrate between flushes, should I be using a high ph water? Thanks so much for any tips!

I have had this bag of gulf coast going since 4/26. I did a B&S on 5/20. The sharpie outline was uncolonized as of 5/28. This is a photo from today. Is this safe to send, or do I need that last part to be further colonized? I’m worried about the middle of the third pic. Thanks so much for any tips!

Was looking forward to my second flush of golden teachers, but I noticed this blueish patch growing on the edge. Contam?

This is my first time getting this far with my shrooms. Is this veil broken? The shroom on the right hand side in the first pic. Thanks so much!

I started trying to grow last fall with no success. I think my house was too cold over the winter because everything just stalled out. I had a couple that I thought were ready to spawn to bulk but I lost them to contamination. I had this bag that I spawned to bulk and was waiting for more colonization before I started introducing fae. I opened it this morning to check on it and to my surprise I have some golden teachers! Ive got the lid cracked now and Im hoping some more poke their heads up. Yay!
