This also works. You wouldn't think it matters, but that half inch or so you cut off from every shroom really adds up when you are harvesting hundreds of them in a session. And both require the same amt of time.

I know you didn't. But that's about how far the substrate goes up on mine. Different strains will form their base at different depths in the substrate. Not so insane really. Calm down.

my butt cheeks work wonders..... no, J/K LOL ! I just harvested a few cakes this evening, and i have a medical scalpel i got from a cloning kit I purchased from Mycosupply ! When you are new to the game, you really treat these things like little children. I guess after 50 monotub bulk grows that philosophy goes out the winda ! Much Love GG

If it's uncased I usually don't need to do much cleaning. Whatever is there easily comes of with a thumbnail.
Cased on the other hand, I use scissors. 'snip'.

I use scissors too, but scrape and peel.
sometimes,if i have a half jar of bulk sub left over i'll stir it into the butt scrapings , give it a mist, cover with cling-film and chuck it in the airing cupboard.
first sign of green throw it out,but,it will occasionally colonise and fruit.
call it the 'fruit ya butt scrappings tek'

Very interesting indeed. I've always got leftover bulk sub of coir/verm/gypsum sitting around. I use it to patch big holes and case for 2nd flushes, as the first flush usually destroys the top layer.
How long does that take in your experience? I realize this is very unlikely but it's a neat a idea. I give you props for that.
