The "green" on your fruits is actually blue bruising.

The green on your sub is probably trichoderma. Get rid of that tub before you contaminate your whole house.

You didn't allow the fruits on #1 to grow to maturity, that's probably why you don't think they're as pretty.

Ok,thank you for the reply. Will try them out as soon as posible :smile:
Now, I have dried them for three days in my drawer on a piece of paper,and now they have gotten even more darker. Is this normal?
Did I dry them wrong?

You should fan dry for 3 days and then toss them in a tub with some desiccant for another couple days.

Rice is a good touch but extremely slow. It was used in the old days to keep moisture out of salt and sometimes sugar as well as keep the molds that like humidity away from food storage but desiccant is good stuff.


Nice job on your grow :-)

drawer?don't know.. it seemed like a good idea, it's dark and dry?
and yes, they are a litlle soft, like still filled with moisture-water,
and they have gotten quite dark too.But yall convinced me,I'm gonna eat em anyway :wink:

About the rice,i'we read somewhere, just before, that it acts as a desiccant yes.Don't know where to buy a real desiccant in our country, so i'll stick with the rice..
and thank you for the congrats :laugh:

Well if you don't have desiccant by all means do the rice :grin:

You could also fan them or change the paper towel or papers under them everyday to ensure most moisture absorbance. Also, if you are doing rice, I would use a good amount. :mushroom2:
