How do i harvest mushrooms properly?
    #21702654 - 05/20/15 02:56 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

How would i harvest the mushrooms at the back of the sub without damaging the substrate surface. Should i use small scissors to cut them at the base or use the twist and pull method? I'm looking forward to multiple flushes so i don't want to damage the healthy mycelium.

Both cutting and twistpull have upside and down. Personally I can't ve bothered to cut anymore, takes too long.

The first couple harvests I would twist and pull, then clean the bases with toilet paper. One minomono took about 45 minutes to harvest. Now I just pull and snip off the dirty bases. I lose about 40 fresh grams on a tub doing it this way, but it only takes 10-15 minutes to harvest.

I was kidding about the chainsaw obviously but I wonder how well an electric knife like for carving turkey would do? For those of you that use liners just lift out and mow the forest down in about 4 minutes
