Magical finds in Frank's summer garden
    #18357439 - 06/02/13 09:23 AM (11 years, 7 months ago)

So I tilled about 100 substrates worth of composted material into my garden this year. We tilled about two weeks ago and it's been a wet spring, and here are some early pins:





And here's the little cluster all grown up:



Here's a mid-june update, I went outside today to snap pictures of a monster cluster and ended up photographing a few other smaller finds as well.






Update 6/22:

Let it rain!

:mushdance:

Garden is taking a break but my compost pile went apeshit crazy...







:cheers:

I wish I had a backyard :/

Not to sound too noobish, but are those shiitakes?

And would you grow cubes outside if you had the chance to? I'd like to do it one day. Then i'd get naked and lay on my carpet of cube....llol

Judging by the cracked caps, I'd say you need to dial in your polyfill a little better.  :cookiemonster:

I guess it really depends. The cracked caps are because of the lower RH air above the ground level causing them to dry up a bit too quickly. If I were to throw some brush of grass clippings over them and keep them moist, they would present themselves much differently I bet ya.

Honestly I couldn't go into more detail than that. This is not a properly set up bed.

I just tilled a whole lot of old substrates (around 100) into my horse manure compost and soil in the garden this year.

I'm really impressed with the resulting mushrooms. I've harvested almost 2oz dry over the last couple weeks.

I think I may have seeded my yard for years to come as well :lol:

On a side note this is actually a good example of cracked caps due to dry air, a common issue with indoor grows.

My RH outside for the past day has been 65-90 (only 65 this morning) and I'm getting a lot of cracked caps as well.

A few weeks ago when I was gone I had an outdoor bed going, and it rained a lot. I came home to some fruits that were almost cracker dry laying on top of the bed lol :crazy2: It's only humid where I live after it rains. Otherwise its like 40-50RH

Yep, if the rain knocks any small fruits off, they tend to be dry after just a few hours in the sun. It's definitely not very humid here either.

Pleurotus citrinopileatus, the golden oyster mushroom.

Those will make a delicious snack today.

I broke those straw logs down a few weeks ago, I had fruited them through a few flushes. Mold had started so I used a spade to break them all up...I had no idea once it rained heavily a few times I would have more delicious goldies :grin:

Kewl :smile:

I have to say, I used to hate mushrooms, they just seemed disgusting in every way :shrug:

But the more I get into the world of mycology, the more I think that i really, really need to re-consider  and get rid of the hatred. All these wonderful posts and beautiful pictures just make me feel stupid about my attitude towards mushrooms and i feel like i'm growing as a person and as a human being, just by reading The Shroomery.

Never would've thought that a website could have this effect, but hey, live and learn, right? :wink:
