I have pins/mini shrooms growing in pf tek cake (hpoo/verm) that's still incubating...next step?
    #10473722 - 06/08/09 08:52 PM (14 years, 9 months ago)

I have a jar that just 4 days ago fully colonized. Looking at it yesterday i saw that some pins/shrooms were appearing. How do i treat this when birthing? Do i leave them on, bypass dunking and go straight to FC? Or do i pluck them off, dunk and DEC or roll? Is this normal? I have other jars with this strain that didn't do this. Only difference is i used hpoo in the cake mix along with verm. Is it the hpoo that is causing the rapid rate of growth?

pluck them off, dunk and roll

the pinning was probably caused by exposure to light

Pins are fine if you can dunk and roll without killing them leave them on,  that will be a good start to your first flush.

Incorrect, i have 14 jars that are exposed to light from day 1 and not 1 has pinned invitro. when i used to colinise in darkness, they would et exposed to light everyday and still didnt pin after a week, untill birthed.

Not sure why you used poo in jars. Go ahead and birth its obvsioulsy finished consolidating the subtrate.

I went ahead and pulled the pins off. Figured most would abort/rot so might as well get something out of them. They are thick little fuckers. OK to eat them, right?

I am going to dunk then birth.

If you're certain it's a psilocybian mushroom then eat up!

dude, why? I just fruited several jars that were pinning in vitro with NO problems, in fact two of them so far grew to enormous proportions when exposed to plenty of FAE. The strain is probably just an early fruiter. Next time, leave em on and enjoy the massive results of your labor.

Yeah dude I just had the same problem the other day.  I saw that 3 of my jars were pinning inside so I birthed them, dunked em, even rolled em. 

I just made sure to be gentle when rolling so that I didnt bruise them.

From my experience so far, having invitro pins in your jars before birthing starts the fruiting process right away.  The colonized jars that didnt pin while inside are still not pinning in the FC now, but the ones that pinned inside are flourishing!

well, i'm sure i missed a couple so we'll see what they do. Most had a pinhead-sized cap with a thick-ass body. I wonder if invitro fruits differ from regular open air fruits? Guess i'll find out with the couple that are still on there.

did you lose any pins/shrooms during that process? Did they grow bigger than the ones that came in after the dunk/roll?

Mine had slightly strange shapes, but other than that they were just massive.

Started Pinning in Jar



Pins stayed intact after dunk and roll, and grew a bit in the terrarium.

Next Day


Day 2


Here is the other side of the same cake with brand new pins everywhere!


The cakes that didnt pin in vitro still havent pinned in the FC, I expect them to on Day 5.  Hope I helped!
