What's the point of posting a pic if everyone is just gonna kiss ass and say everything's great?
If I did something sub-par without knowing it I'd be pretty upset if
everyone knew an easy way for me to boost my grows but didnt care to tell me :oldman2:

you (probably) already have a mom for that, we're here to help you improve!

I guess what I've been saying throughout the thread is that I've done as much or more reading than everyone else. I know things weren't ideal with this, but I'm not in a position to make things ideal. For what I had to work with, I thought it was fine. I didn't have the ability to spawn to bulk or even properly fruit it. I was just concerned about when to pick

I doubt that. If you had you would have known that it would have been better to wait until you had a casing ready and once you did then you would have taken it out of the fridge (where you would have stored it until you had your shit together) and cased it.

Then you would have had a decent harvest and this abortion of a thread would never had happened.

Regardless it is what its is. Next time do it right and you will at least have enough for a trip :shrug:

I can tell you proper procedure for everything with my mouth sewn shut. It's not an issue of not knowing how to do these things, it's an issue of not having the luxury of a constant stove, privacy, and freedom you all have. I had to do the best with what I could, otherwise the colonized jar would've just died. Something is better than nothing. I feel like you're all missing the point of this hobby. This hobby isn't about making things to trip on, it's about using spores, microscopic seeds, to make life. It's about appreciating the life cycle of fungi as a whole. Everyone is in awe of the people who grow pounds upon pounds clearly to sell, but I am just happy that, given all of my unimaginable obstacles , I was able to give life to something. I'm happy with what I have, I just wanted to know if it was okay.

When I have the ability to do everything right, I will because I know how, but it's about the journey more than the poundage.

I know they're not great mushrooms, but I gave them life and they relatively flourished considering what they went through. I couldn't have asked for more from them.

And when the day comes that I can do everything ideally, I'll post it, so then I can actually get some useful criticism. Unsolicited critique about what I know was wrong (but was unable to amend) is fruitless (pun intended).

:facepalm:

If you've ever read a single quote on fruiting straight grains you'd know why we're surprised it even fruited.

making statements like "i've read as much as anyone else here" just makes you look bad to us,
the proof is in the pudding. The polite way to go about this would be to :takingnotes: of everything that's being said, throw in a "thanks" or 2
and understand no one's here to mock you we're here to help you improve.

Going all :brushrage: and saying dont give advice on what's not being asked is the mother of all :facepalm:'s.

:boo:

What are you 12? Or trying to grow without everyone in the residence knowing or being cool with it? That in itself is seriously not cool. The number of people here who have ended up with charges or homeless as a result of trying to grow on the down low is testament to what a shit plan that is.

If that is the case I take back my advice and I wish you lots of trich until you grow up and not put people around you at risk.

FYI I don't just grow "things to trip on" I also enjoy growing gourmet and edibles. I like the challenge they offer. Cause this hobby for me is about having a level of skill and knowledge.

What "advice" was given? "Those look awful," "You are terrible at this," etc. That's the vibe of this thread. There's no advice, just that my grow was bad and because I don't like people unfairly mocking and judging me, and I am consequently bad. I'm putting no one around me at risk.

My thoughts were that I have a colonized jar and nothing else, so I can try to make it work or just let the mycelium die. I chose to try.

I can't think of anyone who posted here deserving a "thanks" other than the people who mentioned not to fruit uncased grains and that they don't look moldy. Thank you to those people. Other than that, this post has just fueled a lot of hate and negative vibes unjustly.

Fruiting uncased grains is usually a disaster as your results have demonstrated. The substrate is dried out and fruits look aborted with the eexception of the larger fruit which manages to actually drop spores. Almost looks like a horribly abused PE. I doubt you will see anything more from that so you might as well pick and dry and start over. Do it properly if you want results.

Pastywhyte said:
Yes its a disaster. If your going to fruit straight grains you have to case them. Without a casing the grains bleed moisture leading to a horrible dried out surface of the mycelium which is mostly dead at this point, and a really pathetic attempt by the colony to push out a flush before it dies. I am actually amazed you got a fruit at all.

V tek was for all intents and purposes a bad choice for my environment and I had what I consider to be poor results.

These were bad results. Compare to yours.

They are just busting your balls. Those mushrooms are more than likely good. Keep in mind, if you want to do this with great results skip the GOD DAMN MICROWAVE. Use a pressure cooker. Do grains, and spawn to bulk. If you want to follow the V-tek, see if she will respond to you in a PM to help you figure out what went wrong. IMO there is nothing that you can put in a micro wave and expect to be sterile when it comes out.

Pastywhyte said:
No the vibe of the site is to help people grow mushrooms. Without criticism you will not improve. No your fruits are not moldy, go ahead and eat them. I doubt you have enough for a trip and they look disgusting but feel free to chow them down.

As for violets microwaved casing,  I did it, it was okay. I prefer to pasteurize myself but it worked. I know where he went wrong and I told him. Violet will tell him the same thing, you can't fruit uncased grain. If OP can't handle a little constructive criticism then this is not a good hobby for him. He should either learn how to stick to a tek or else play video games or something.

there is all kinds of incredible advice here, and all the information you need to grow ridiculous amounts of mushrooms you just have to use common sense and find the good information. check out peoples gallerys and pictures of stuff they post and its not hard to see who knows what they are doing.

and take the responses you got as your lesson not to do something like that again lol, stick around and get better. key mentos..etc

just in case you missed it in your fit of rageego because you can't take a joke not even about you but about your poor attempt at fruiting. And then you claim to have read more than us. hah that really made me laugh but you could easily learn a lot by just reading this thread. Here is a good link ALL you'll need (for the meantime) for grains and bulk GOOD luck and really think about this
