Mature fruit in pin cluster
    #23417122 - 07/06/16 02:19 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

I'm just curious what you guys do when you have a matured fruit within a cluster that you want to pick before spores drop, but the shrooms that are around it hasn't opened their caps yet. What do you guys do? Cut the mature at the base and let the others grow?

Also, do you guys ever cut your shrooms at the base. Usually I twist and pull but this mycelium runs deep so when I twist n pull it leaves a huge crater. So, to twist and pull...or to cut the stem at the base?

If you do twist n pull and create a crater, do you fill it in with anything or leave it be?

At least when that's what they're trying to do.  I just wait for some kind of balance between the maturity of all of them and get it as a cluster usually.

I cut sometimes and pull other times.  If I don't give a fuck I yank em out.  If I want a nice second flush, I cut.  If you cut to harvest you gotta hold back on misting or dunking for about 48 hours to let the stumps revert to mycelium, else waterlogging them will turn them into mold magnets.  Can still bottom water during this time though.

So I should just yank the cluster? This one is ready to go. All the others aren't but I don't want the spores to drop. That fucked up my last mono bad

It's leaving some DEEP craters and my sub is maybe 2.5 thick (cut the holes to close to the bottom.)

I wonder if I attempted to take a straight razor in between the sub and the shroom to produce a nice clean cut off the sub.

I guess I didn't realize how dark/fuzzy that pic was.
