Eating aborts

So I've been reading around and read that some people eat their aborts. What should I do with them? I've just been discarding them this whole time. I have tons lol.

I just leave them. To much of a pita to bother with imo.

Aborts are usually very psychoactive.

My last grow from like a month ago I got more than 4oz of aborts from a few tubs. And aborts are always potent as shit.
Soooo...I will be making a bunch of chocolates and/or tincture with them

Eat them. But also post a pic of your setup- a lot of aborts means something is amiss.

Aborts arent always a FAE thing. For example if a substrate doesnt have the strength to produce a bunch of big mushrooms, some will abort to save energy for the bigger ones.

Hmmm well it's good to hear that aborts aren't just trash. I won't feel so bad if I wind up with some now.

Very true but it's still something to take a look at. I've definitely had som pins abort in order to support fatties- but if it continuously happens if venture a guess that there is something wrong with the conditions.

I did say imo.
Personally I grow much more than I can eat. So I'd prefer to eat a quarter rather than fucking around with aborts.

I read the title to this thread as "eating abortions"

Anyway, aborts are more potent by weight than fully grown mushrooms.

Well I would argue, aborts are more potent so you don't need to eat as much. Also they are less mature so they taste less like ass.

I hear ya on the more potent bit. But I could just eat twice as much. I think I can pick an ounce of regular ass cubes in the time it would take me to pick an eighth of aborts.
But yeah, it's all personal preference. I wasn't trying to knock anyone that eats them. Just pointing out that it's cool to leave them.

*edit* Also I make tea So I personally don't eat shit

Aborts are usually strain related. A strain which produces more pins than it can sustain to harvest will have lots of aborts.
Since pins and small mushrooms are more potent, aborts are too. Just don't eat them if they're rotten. Food poisoning is no fun, especially when you're trying to blow cookies into a melting toilet.  RR
