My friend grew these and I have a question..
    #22229965 - 09/13/15 04:59 AM (8 years, 4 months ago)

So my friend grew some ecuadorian shrooms and gave me some. I've never grown myself. I was wondering what these white bits on the cap are? Also, at the bottom of some of the stems there's a shiny golden crispy layer, I'm curious to know what they both are! Some pictures below :smile:

Mycelium. Eat it.

The shiny golden stuff at the base is likely to be vermiculite; part of the medium used in the growing process.  I'd gently brush it off, but if you don't, it's not going to do you any harm.  It's unpleasant to chomp on, though.

Why didn't you ask your friend?? Scared or something?

lol i know i would be with some of my friends.
just cuz they are my friends is no reason to assume they have any idea wtf they are doing, even if they themselves are convinced they are.

lol you did the right thing posting this,
but yeah you are fine. CliftonGK1 is correct, mycellium and vermiculite.

these things are typical in pf-tek grown mushrooms.
you have to be kind of anal retentive to sit there and get all the verm off before drying.
on the whole i'd say your friend did a pretty god job there. :thumbup:
