B+ Invitro Jar

First thread in a while.
Scrolling through my old pictures, found this jar in there, I had forgotten about it. Looking at it now, I find it quite a wild sight, I have never seen anything else quite like it before or since; so, I though I'd share it. This was B+ MS fruiting inside a sealed jar, off of straight grains, pinning off of glass. I even ended up getting some full size fruits, enough for a decent adventure. 
The part I find the most amazing, is how thick/strong the myc network got, it looked almost like human veins. They were strong enough to support the mushrooms fruiting off in any direction/location from the glass. I never thought much of it back when it happened being a noob, but now I really have respect for this jar after being in the hobby for a while, knowing how rare this sight probably is. I never once opened the jar until the very end, which means the only FAE these guys ever would have had was through a tiny GE hole in the lid. All of the pictures except the last one @ harvest were taken from outside the jar.
Anyway, just thought I would share.
Enjoy.




I uploaded as many pictures as I could find of it, which was quite a few. I'm glad I documented this so well. Definitely one for the books.
You'll be happy to know that I did remember this jar very well, after seeing these pictures, I remember using the remaining spawn afterward to get a nice few flushes out of a mini mono...

The jar wanted to fruit, it made that very clear. I'm not really sure what caused it to get such an angery looking, vigorous growth inside there... It was clean spawn, I pulled three flushes at least out of the mono after. It never contam and I tossed it as a healthy substrate.
That jar sat for maybe a month total, it turned into this. I have let a few other B+ jars sit for that long and longer since, but never seen anything like this again.
Any comments or input are welcome.

This one here is quite amazing too. I believe it is the opposite side of the mushroom in the one you posted.

Check out the veins supporting it off of the glass, how thick they are at the base of it. You can even see where separate strands link up to mate and supply all the nutes to this one mushroom.

The mono produced well too. Later flushes were great, I think I messed up the casing a bit so the first flush wasn't very impressive. Unfortunately, those two pictures of the first flush were the only ones I could find of the mono. 
If I remember correctly, I also mixed in 1 jar of PE spawn that blobbed in a jar around the same time, the effect was similar to the B+ Invirtro but not near as dramatic. I called them PE stones. I'll see if I can find some pictures of that and I will post them here as well.
Turned out to be quite a decent grow from a couple unusual spawn jars.

PE stones.



Note: I never did see any fruits come out looking PE, they all looked like B+ variety. Maybe because of how aggressive the B+ was apposed to the PE, I could see it taking over the whole substrate first. PE takes a while to consolidate and fruit IME, whereas B+ is very quick, that probably played a role there.
Still not sure why these jars did this. It is up for debate.
My first guesses would be: A. It was just very strong culture, it wanted out of the jars.
And
B. Something to do with the environmental conditions in my grow area where they were sitting at the time, as both jars experienced a similar effect (I remember having an ultrasonic humidifier running in the room at one point, which could have been at the same time these jars were sitting in that same general area). This could have potentially allowed the jars to retain more moisture from initial prepping, or possibly even gain some moisture through the GE holes, allowing them to fruit the way they did; Invitro. I also always had lots of airflow in the room for my mono tubs as well.
I guess there are also many other things that could have played a role, such as how I prepped my grains, ambient temps and what not, but I don't remember doing anything much differently than other jars I've done.

Some definite mushroom pornography going on inside that jar, couldn't resist sharing. Not to mention it is quite interesting.
I showed a few people around here in threads back when it happened, everyone who got a look at it said the same thing. I just never really thought it deserved a thread until now.

Awesome man. One of the coolest mushrooms things I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing. I keep going back and looking at the pics. I'm actually tripping right now. Ate 3 large mushies. Drank a few beers. Smoked a good bit of weed. This is so awesome to look at right now

Haha... Imagine seeing these jars in person tripping balls. They were literally beating like hearts...
Actually, they were a bit scary to look at high. Like they were very mad at me.

Yo that is next level, crazy myc!
Great work, how exactly did you achieve that? Did you just forget about a grain spawn jar and they fruited like that?

This is a similar one I had a while ago, its Burma.


Should have got more photos at the time. The myc was like a net, but it all pulled off when I pulled the shroom off. It was so thick & ropey I just dried it along with the shrooms.
This was the jar before they started growing from the sides.
