Painfully slow to no growth...
    #14267126 - 04/10/11 01:31 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I am relatively new to cultivation.... started a year ago by using a kit company (homesteadbook.com). Usually things go right after the spores have been given enough time on the rye berries, but something went wrong this time I think.

I put the spore culture into the compost almost 3 weeks ago and have plenty of mushrooms sprouting up, but the problem is they have not moved from where they were a week or so ago. And, all the past strains I've gotten have blossomed beautifully large or medium sized caps. These....are....tiny. Even the ones in which the veil broke and were ready to pick were super small. I usually get 5 flushes from each batch and I'm struggling to get even one "full" one from this =(

I have seen NO green/blue/brown mold. It doesn't appear to be cob-web like, but there are some interesting tiny white dots that don't look like anything I've seen before. (Sorry, I have pictures I just can't figure out how to upload on here).However, When I put the spore mixture into the compost, the compost had a small amount of green spots on the outside of certain patches. Perhaps that is it, but I'm just wondering if I should pick what I can and forget about it.

A picture would help a lot.

I'm not certain yet.

Can I email it to you somehow? I tried attaching it and it's not working... keeps telling me the file is not accepted.
