When should I harvest?
    #22149829 - 08/27/15 03:17 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Hello everyone,

I'm pretty new to shrooms and this is my first time growing on my own, so I have a few questions...

1. When do I harvest my shrooms?
2. Do they look healthy to you?
3. Why are there some blank spots?

I hope those questions aren't too "nooby" and you can answer them (-:
Now here are some pictures.





Thanks in advance!

harvest when the veils begin to break (the veil being the stretchy part under the cap which covers the gills



they look good to me, well done :laugh:

the blank bits are just life man, sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not

you'll learn if you stick around, there are ways to improve your yields, but at the end of the day, the mushroom does what it wants, and you just have to be patient and thankful :laugh:

I'd say in 24 hours or so just as the veil breaks underneath. This is there strongest point. If you want prints however let them go tip they start getting purple (those are spores). They look very healthy to me don't worry about the patch that hasn't grown you'll probably find thats where your second flush will come from.

Thanks a lot! I'll keep an eye on the veils. Good to know I don't have to worry about the blak spots, I thought maybe those are contaminated ^^'
I can keep you updated with pictures how they turn out (-:

Those will be done in afew hours, when I check my tubs at night and there like this I know I'm gonna wake up to abit of a mess as some of the bigger fruits will have dropped there spores on the others. You can always pick some now some later if your careful, too avoid the mess.

Sorry for the double post, they look pretty done right now (at least some really do!). I'll post some pictures, would be nice if someone could tell me if it's really time to harvest those big one which have opened (I think)

Pics:







as I said I'm pretty new so I don't want to do it too early or destroy something, that's why I am asking.
