Yeah that's very possible. That's enough for like 3-4 solid trips!

Yes they are B+! I'm now really into growing mushroom. I just ordered a Presto 23qt from the USA to be ready for my first monotub. 3 Jars of rye are now slightly colonized. I want to do g2g in my Glovebox to about 10 1qt jars if the 3 jars are ready.

Now the first two mushrooms have started to open their caps. When should I harvest them? I don't want them to let their Spores fall on my Cakes. And should I harvest all of the shrooms at all or is it possible to first harvest the 2 or 3 biggest and the other ones when they are ready?

it shouldnt be too hard to pick just the ones with caps opening. from what i remember i always waited until the veil started to break then picked them. the other mushrooms should only be a day or two maybe 3 behind.

Exactly, just pick the biggest ones now and wait a little bit longer for the smaller mushrooms to start breaking their veils and then pick those!

Congratulations on a great grow. It looks like your bigger cakes will have 50g each. You'll have well over 100g total.

New update: Here is a Pic from today:


I harvested about 1/3 or 1/2 of the shrooms, the other ones could grow until they are ready. Die first wet yield was 58g wet!

Right the fuck on... ... trim back that foil to get the most out of your perlite... and I even feel shitty telling you that since you had such good success without even rolling them in verm...keep it up... I would say you are straight up ready for bulk.

Can you bake a cake mix --> You can do PF tek
Can you cook rice --> You can do grains
Can you feed your mother Pillsbury Biscuits at Thanksgiving and handle the criticism --> You can do growkits
--------------------
I spawned some popcorn casings and had double-overlay cause I didn't put enough hydrogen peroxide in my automated aquarium mister. I only got one mushroom so I cut off the head part where the seeds fall from and put it in a jar of LC and sprayed it all over a tin of PF cakes I made with gravel, cardboard, and bisquick in my microwave. I think it will be good cause B+ is so potent. Triggered yet? Only a square would say "a cube is a cube."
No, this does not look right...

Did you dunk them for 24 hours after you birthed?

I just harvested all of the shrooms: The dry wet yield of the second harvest was 75g, so the total yield of the first flush is more than 100g!
Now I want to dunk the cakes to re-hydrate them. While the cakes are dunking, I will cut the foils. There are still a few very very small pins left. Should I remove the pins before dunking the cakes?
