Today is day 11. How soon do I need to harvest?
Hey people
This cake started smelling fermented after rehydration and now these cloudy fluffy spots appeared. I think they're too white to be contam (but it could very well be), what do you guys think these are? And what should I do with this cake?
hi first time using my grow buddies 60l and after 5 days of fruiting it looks like I have massive overlay on my cake it's malmak strain so like penis envy should I fork it or just leave it?
Contm?
Newbie here! First grow bag is going good, the mycelium is almost fully covered the cake so I'm expecting to switch to fruiting conditions in the next week or two. Just had a couple questions for advice:
1.a. if I transfer to a tub, what is best to use for hydration. Ive heard a lot about using pearlite on the bottom but I've also seen people use like a dog pad soaked as well.
1.b. if I keep in the bag, do I need to add any hydration?
1.c. if I keep in the bag, can I turn it from vertical to horizontal to increase surface area? Or is this a bad idea?
Thanks!
First attempt at growing mushrooms. Apparently I’m destined to do things the longer/harder way than most people- I bought an “All in One” bag and it looked like it was gonna do the thing. But then it didn’t and the folks here and at my LGS said to try this approach: take myco block from bag and crush it while cutting in food for it in largeish plastic tote. Top w/ food substrate.
I took the mods advice and bought a frog fogger (clutch btw) and it’s been riding for 4 days now. It appears that in pics 1-2 the pins might be setting and they might be ready for fruiting? Any/all guidance welcome-I’m in legit new territory for myself.
Hey guys
So this cake gave me one very mediocre harvest (literally 2 dried grams) and it now looks like it does in the pic. I guess it's due time I rehydrate this cake, what would happen if I did that when the live mycelium on top?
Thank you!
Hey people
As it can be seen in the pics, I have a cake with lots of bodies but they stopped growing suddenly (they've been like this for a full week, no growth whatsoever), I think the cake might be dried out. What would happen if I try rehydrating the cake with the bodies on the cake? should I harvest now?
Thank you!
