If/when to harvest lone mushroom
#22068602 - 08/09/15 06:09 PM (8 years, 5 months ago) |

There is only one lone mushroom on one cake that may have been from an in vitro pin, after 7 days in a SGFC. I have maybe 5-10 additional pins on the rest of my 11 cakes, but I am wondering when to pull this lone wolf off of my cake. I don't recall seeing any other pins on the cake that it's growing on, and I have been hydrating it with some extra water once a day.
The cap just opened up today, and I think I see the veil underneath, but how do I know if it's "broken" or already broke? I am going to attach a picture, so maybe someone could help me out.
Do I harvest this fruit and leave the cake in to wait for more pins, or dunk immediately after if nothing else shows up? It's growing underneath the cake.

The veil is torn, harvest it now. You know veil is torn when you see gills. Try to harvest just as veil tears and let other fruits grow. If there arent' any more pins on the cake dunk again.

The gills are under the cap? So I harvest this one and leave the cake there to see if more pins appear?

Okay, awesome. That became very clear once I plucked it. Is the fuzzy white stuff at the base of the mushroom mycelium or mold? What should I do to clean this off, or is it not usable? I remember someone saying that white fuzz at the base was a sign of doing something incorrectly, but I don't remember what.

EDIT: Search told me that means the mycelium are happy and that is fine

Those white circles are definitely a contam :P
white fuzz is mycelium, is perfectly normal especially on larger fruits. Don't worry about cleaning them off. Next time harvest before shroom starts growing underneath the cake. Get some direct light exposure as well, that helps them grow in the right direction.

I would love to know what search told you fuzzy feet means the mycelium is happy, if anything it means the mycelium isn't happy. Sometimes it's just genetics though. Also, that verm is way easier to clean off the stem fresh than dry.

Okie doke, this was an 18 g shroom, which I'm guessing is on the larger side. It was weird, from the angle I look at my sgfc every day, I didn't even know it was a full blown shroom until its cap popped out the other side. I will definitely try and clean them up better before I harvest, I just wasn't expecting to have to deal with that for a couple more days at a minimum.

1.8g dried is not really on the larger side. I have a few 7-9g dry fruits kicking around here somewhere. I know there's been some that've come through here that are at least 14g dry.

Rodger that. Maybe large in the sense that I am expecting 3-10g per cake and I've got 2 flushes to go, with a 2g fruit harvested. Wondering how much moisture has been used/remaining.

Who knows? Give it a mist and have a seat, I'm sure all will be revealed. It's not bad for cakes at any rate.
