Can I just pick the mushrooms that are ready off the cake?
    #14091353 - 03/09/11 08:43 AM (13 years, 10 months ago)

I have a brf cake that is exploding with growth, and some of the shrooms  are ready to be picked, but others are not ready yet. Is it okay to just pick the ready ones, or will this mess with the overall development of the flush?

I've had the same issue.  I try to wait until a handful are ready and pick them.  It appears that this may slow the others a bit, but the alternative is having everything covered in spores, at which point it can be difficult to determine if the cake has a contam or just the spore layer.

I'd wait for a more experienced cultivator's reply before I did anything though.

It's no big deal to pick the mature fruits as they develop, especially on cakes.

Just make sure you mist heavily after removing some mature fruits.
