And I don't know what kind of mushrooms they are they have dark caps and have skinny stems I'm very new to this and am just learning. I've been doing some research and I think I'm gonna buy a kit ***NON SPONSOR*** and get some spores I'm lazy and pretty dumb so I like to have the jars and all the stuff ready for me. I'm just wondering if the kit will make it to Canada or if there's a better kit place in Canada and where's the best place to get spores in Canada. I have so many questions but I'm excited growing mushrooms really interests me

Kits are a waste blah blah blah. But you knew that was coming. All you have to do Is buy a 50-60 qt sterilite tub for 6-10$ at walmart then buy half pint whole pint widemouth pickling jars come in a twelve pack for 6-8$ and some isopropyl alcohol 70% or greater about 2$ some nylon gloves between 4 and 6$ for fifty to onehundred and some 16 to 18 gauge needles longer the better and two or three sterile 12ml syringes for 3-4$. Youre set for success!

For thirty bucks you can grow your own in a trip to walmart or even the dollar store. Then for the syringes and needles go to any seed and feed store such as Tractor Supply etc. Mid**** charges 60 plus and you have to wait. But if your going to buy a kit I would go big or go home and buy a nice one. Youll also need a soup pot or pressure cooker for steam sterilization. And clean ya house before you grow! Best of luck my friend

Looks like a coprinus or coprinoid or something similar I wouldn't consume those. Especially if you've had alcohol recently.
I completely agree with above poster. I started off reading through:

You're bound to find something of use there.

I should be more specific, you got an inky cap contamination.
Quote:
Workman said: I grew mushrooms but they don't look right
Not all contamination is slimy or moldy. Sometimes a mushroom substrate can unintentionally produce unwanted mushrooms.
Presenting an informational collection of images of contaminate mushrooms growing on cakes or in trays. The list is rather short so you should be able to find your rogue mushrooms here. If you find something completely different, let me know and I'll add it to the list. All images are of actual contaminate mushrooms observed and documented by members of the Shroomery forums. -------------------------------------------------------------
#4 Coprinoids (Inky Caps)
A common contaminate mushroom often seen in bulk cultivations using manures, composts, straw or soils. The spores of many coprinoids are thermotolerant and can survive inadequate pasteurization. There are many species but the contaminating types are all fast growing and fragile with most dissolving into an inky liquid at maturity. The cap coloration can be white, brown or gray. The young caps are usually egg shaped, but mature into a bell or parasol shape before melting down. Spores are black. Not active, not edible (some species can be somewhat toxic, but none are considered deadly)

Threads Oddball Mushroom contaminate Inky caps More inky caps Albino PE?
The Shroomery Contaminate page, includes inky caps
-------------------------------------------------------------
You should ask for a refund.
The biggest problem with pf tek is always moisture content. Follow the tek to the T and mix it up REALLY well. If you make it evenly hydrated you should be good.

eat them and find out. All mushrooms are edible, but some you can only eat once.

Ew. You can eat inky caps but that's just nasty.
