If you used water with food colouring, would it make the mushrooms that colour? My friend wouldnt do it because he didnt want to not be able to see contams...but i was just curious if itd work because thatd be pretty cool.

That would be an awsome experiment for someone who is really experienced in mycology, unlike myself.
Hey you could try it and not eat the product.
Someone try it. I want to see pics of that.

Sounds like a plan...not too sure I'll be able to resist not eating them though.

It might work. I once made a casing using concentrated flavoring for making candy in it and the shrooms did absorb the flavor. Unfortunately they tasted worse than they usually do.

The reason that I suggested not eating them is because you would be coloring over any possible contaminates that could be in the substrate.
I think that Joshua should try it. Everything he touches seems to turn to gold when it comes to mycology.
Where're you at Joshua? You got to try this for us.

I have seen an online spore store that actually claims to have spores for a mushroom that does indeed glow in the dark. I think that they said it is inactive though. Probably poisonous, who knows.

Ekstaza: there are several species of bio-luminescent fungi. one example is the Jack-o-Lnatern. the mycelium of soem honey mshrooms are luminescent aswell.
-------------------- Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Has anyone strarted this endevor yet? I may try to make a small shot glass sized cake and use some sterilyzed colored water to try and get colored mushies. That way the cake should colonize pretty quickly and I should have results relatively soon. Please remember that I'm about as new to growing as can be having not yet even gotten my first jars to fully colonize. I'll do my best.

Interesting. My roommates cat will have to try this out in the next batch. Really like to see some bright red cubensis. Luckily no prob with contams yet, hopefully the trend will continue.

I experimented with food coloring about a year ago to see if I could tint my shrooms.
I used a simple BRF substrate and added heavily red food coloring with the water. I chose red in an effort to see contams.
After about a month, all I ended up with was slightly pink stems. The caps were their natural color.
I tried other colors since then, but stopped because it might be hard to catch cotams.

inject it in the glow in the dark fish you think?, well you thought wrong, those fish are naturally glow in the dark.

yea bioluminescence, i doubt there is anything you can inject into a living animal to make it glow in the dark, (without killing it).
