A cautionary tale
    #23380777 - 06/25/16 12:53 PM (7 years, 7 months ago)

First I would like to say thanks to all the people who so generously share information on this forum. You have made this first grow possible. Thank you!

So...Today, I was so excited with the growth of my very first mushrooms  (Treasure Coast) that I just had to get a picture. See my babies...  :biggrin:



Originally when I put the cake in the jar I had foil around the edge to help prevent side pinning. However, as I dialed in a new humidifier it got really wet. I removed it and meant to put new foil on but it completely slipped my mind. I also never noticed until the first pins were forming that the cake was not sitting all the way on the bottom of the jar but a smidge above it. Now, as you can see, the mushrooms are pushing the cake up higher every day. LOL

Obviously, I had to get pictures of ALL my babies and this included the ones on the bottom of the jar. As I turned the jar upside down the largest mushroom gently brushed against a nearby tray and it popped off.  It just POPPED OFF!  :whoa:  I couldn't believe how easily or neatly it happened! I just stood there and looked at it in shock. There would be no print from my first baby.  :cryariver:

WHY DIDN'T I WAIT FOR HARVEST TO TAKE PICS?!

My next thought though was to weight it - just over 5 grams. Woohoo! At least it's big enough for my first ever mushroom experience! (Starting low, working my way up.)


Lesson of the day: Leave the mushrooms alone until they're done! No manhandling the shrooms!
