I enjoy all aspects of the Cultivation process except harvest. You'd think that would be the fun part but it's just a pain in the ass

space queens bomb, you gotta try Plushberry its black cherry soda x space queen
So good. A very good fruity/berry/sweet bomb strain from TGA seeds. I suggest everyone try it, along with a proper JackFrost cut and some SFVOG

SO! Lots of new side/bottom pins popping up now. A lot of the top ones got bigger thankfully and that one first small pin is pretty big and thick now and the cap is going to be huge when it opens (which should be any time soon). Like honestly if i were to put a golf ball up beside the cap of that one shroom, it would equal almost the same size.
Anyways, question: How do i go about not disturbing pins that aren't ready to be harvested that are connected to other big shrooms when they're ready?

So a while back I posted a pic of a tub where I was trying out "slatting" simply because I wanted to see for myself if it presented any benefits. I am here to report that I am quite disappointed with the results. While my experiment was with ms and with a variety known for producing fatasses (which might have something to do with my results) I found that the pins tended to concentrate only in the slats and ignored the rest of the sub.

My next experiment on this will be to attempt to demonstrate how detrimental this practice can be. I am right now sterilizing receiving jars which I will inoculate with a master colonized with a proven fruiting monoculture of a more classic variety. They shall be spawned to identical subs, in identical monos. There will be 3 tubs in total 1. slatted 2. cased and 3. no casing no slats. I will post results in a separate thread but will be sure to post a link to it in this one so anyone interested in some definitive results on this practice can have a look.
Now in non slatting related news, my ms APE unslatted tub is showing its first pins

You can simply decapitate them and harvest the stems when the rest are ready.

I sometimes find I can grab it by the base and twist it away from the cluster, sometimes messes up the pins, but more often than not it removes it just fine. Now as the the question about whether or not that would increase contam risks is another story.
Hey Blue, could you post a pic of your sub AFTER you harvest from it? I want to see what yours vs mine looks like, I can rarely get more than 2 flushes and am wondering if its my harvest technique.
-------------------- Everything I have said, may say, will say, am thinking about saying and/or thinking/typing/dreaming/writing is in all likelyhood made up and has no factual basis in reality whatsoever, and is likely all plagiarized and copy pasted straight from someone else, so get mad at them . Just a warning
