Mushrooms growing from sides first time grower ^^
    #19185323 - 11/25/13 02:00 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

First of all hello all shroomery people..

I dont know if i am writing this post at the right place anyways I ordered 2 mazatepac kits from a website and got them..

But I didnt know that I had to close the sides of the box so I didnt do that at start and 10 15 mushrooms growing from the sides I dont know what to do I dont know how to harvest them.. I am getting afraid that if I dont harvest them and leave them they can get bad and contaminate my kit.(this will be my first flush)
Should i put the hole soil out and dig after them? any special advice how I should do this?

Thanks.. Best regards Mesq :mushroom2:

You bought a kit in a box? Please provide a link to what you have, or a pic of your grow.

Everything in there looks fine to me.

Grow kits in general are typically substandard and behind the times. I would condone more fresh air exchange.

Consider yourself lectured on this point.

Beyond that, nothing looks too concerning to me.

The thing is when they grow up appox 1 week later should i take out the hole thing out and take the side growing mushrooms or not? I dont want to contaminate my kit.. (Therefore as i learned that if i dont take those shoorms they can go moldy and contaminate kit anyways?)

And the other question what do you mean with condone fresh air? Open the zips of the plastic bag for an hour or so?

Thanks..

No matter if your doing cakes, casings tubs or grow kits they gotta have fresh air exchange multiple times a day for a better grow.. i dont know much in the way of grow kits as ive never used one and the consensus is that they are a rip off.. if you dont have a pressure cooker there is a vendor who sells cheap spawn bags and brf fruiting bags that would be a much cheaper and more flexible way of growing til you get a PC.. message me  for details as vendor discussion is not allowed in the cultivation forum

Fully colonized substrate which I'm assuming that's what that is and not pure spawn (rye, etc) is pretty contam resistant. So it'd most likely be fine.

As for FAE doesn't have to be a cpl hours but a few min couple times a day as needed and mist right after as needed to keep RH high. GL.

I would make a sgfc and put the tray in it with a few inches of moist perlite, it would help your grow alot.. and by fresh air exchange take the lid to the fruiting chamber and wave it over the sgfc to provide fresh air to the mushies several times a day and between mistings to help with evaporation..

Yeah i am reading about those techs also but as a new starter i wanted to see fruting at first. The others will come smoothly..
So as a conclusion shall i open the bags for some time everyday?

Yeah if you insist on keeping it in the bag wave a magazine or book over it for 30 seconds or so a few times a day.. and your gonna have to get those side pins out when harvesting as any portion of mushroom or abort left in the tray is gonna rot if you dont remove it..

You're fruits have already begun to grow. I would open the top and fan them about 3 times per day.

Next time, I would either create a monotub, or a Shot Gun Fruiting Chamber.

You should watch all of the free videos at: www.mushroomvideos.com and then you should start researching monotubs.

It looks like so far you are succeeding, but better success is to be had with more homework. Stick with it, and you'll do good.

Its bc people throw the kits together for very little money and charge new cultivators up the ass for a sub standard product.. for 3.50 a bag you can buy pre sterilized brf bags and fruit right in the bag, or for 4 bucks you can buy a 1 pound bag of pre sterilized grain and make your own trays for way less money and it will be better qaulity bc you spawned it yourself.. or you can get a pc and sterilize your own spawn/jars/bags even cheaper.. but if your not ready to make the commitment to a PC yet give the grow bags or spawn bags a shot..they help get alot of people into the hobby and all you gotta do is inject spores into em and wait

Make sure you get all of the shroom out or it will rot and lead to contams.. i would pick them after the.veil tears but before they drop spores.. bc the spores get everywhere and are messy, and you can spore print em if you pick b4 theu drop.. and never buy spores again!

This is a bought mushroom kit from holland mate i am not really good with shroom culture like you guys are.. So its a bit hard for me to spore print them.. But as i have read that if i wait a lot it gets the cake exhaust and the next flush comes less then this?
