Second flush
    #21970998 - 07/20/15 02:30 PM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Q 4. Eagerly projecting a couple of weeks into the future, tell me, after the first flush, how soon afterwards should you dunk the cakes for the second flush? Or do you let the cakes rest a wee while?

Q5. You’re supposed to pick the shrooms when the veil breaks, as I understand it “for maximum potency”. What wtf does that mean?  You mean as soon as the veil breaks the psilocybin backs down the stipe again, or what? I’m joking, of course, but how to make sense of this?

4- Dunk them when you notice no new growth.

5-This just means that the amount of active alkaloids the mycelium produces at this stage is negligible, therefore when you pick them as the veil is just starting to tear, they are at 'maximum potency'. It's also wise to pick them at the stage before the veil opens completely and the mushroom drops spores everywhere; can be very messy.

Thanks,

You mean pins, right?

Also, suppose that out of a nice big cubensis whose veil has just broken, but on its stipe you have another mushroom or multiple mushrooms forming. Suppose you had the idea to harvest the big cap, but leave the stipe to wait for the other mushrooms to develop. Would there be a problem with that? I mean, would the stem continue to grow or stop, with the head?
