First successful flush, harvested some but others have started to look a bit rotted?
    #22490637 - 11/07/15 12:38 PM (8 years, 2 months ago)

I've harvested about 15g dried so far from this batch, but the rest have stalled and have started to look a bit rotten. There was a point when I was misting the sides which got a bit dry, I accidentally sprayed too much and it got on the shrooms as well. Is this the cause of it? I've been quite generous with the water as well? I take it this is what happens when you mist too much?

Should I harvest the dud ones just now and dry them for eating while they're still not total mush? They don't look inedible, but they look on their way out

Those have all aborted.  Go ahead and chop and dry.

Holy shit no idea how I missed that.  That's why they all aborted, good grief..

How was it getting dry enough to require misting?  Can we see... the whole thing?  I hope I don't regret this.

Seems like a decent pinset, plus they have those bell shaped caps which I love, would have been a nice harvest. Unfortunate, but maybe he can manage a second flush after dialing it in.

Okay all the duds have been harvested. Now I have this blueish, off-looking mycelium. Will it take hold again now that I've harvested the duds? There are still a handful of good shrooms still growing.

I know I messed up, I found that out today. For some reason I thought only the top two holes were to be dialed in. I got a decent flush before this abort.

Dialing the rest of the holes in now.

Just give it lots of air, mist it when it looks dry, and you should get fruits.

Poor little fellas... Second post I saw today where someone thought they should leave a set of holes taped... Can I ask for a link to the tek you used? Good luck with the second flush, it should go much better for you.

Why would someone think they leave bottom holes taped?  If that were the case, you wouldn't drill bottom holes.

Obviously they were drilled so they could be taped over.  Can't tape over a hole if there's no hole azur, get with the program.

I was going to say something about that, didn't want to be mean. Guess I forgot the status quo around here :tongue: that shit's hilarious though.

Shit... ya man you gotta let them breathe.... they suffocated. Poor guys.

Also when the fruits get "fuzzy feet" that is a good indicator of inadequate FAE as well. (even when you have the holes stuffed with poly may have to make adjustments to get it dialed in.)
