:lol:  You think I carry anger from one day to the next?  I value my sanity way too much for that.  What I think of someone's grow has nothing to do with what I think of them as a person. 

I think TC there ^ has scoped some similar brown spots and determined them to definitely be bacteria.  But not the average bacteria that just makes your substrate smell slightly like birthday cake, actual fuck-your-shit-up bacteria potentially, since it's definitely on the fruits.

I've never had it personally.  Those look like (I think it was elasticaltiger's?)  pidgeon PE otherwise.

So now it's rude that your mushrooms aren't massive?  They're big but the guy asked you how you did it like there was some secret technique that you did to get them "massive".  They aren't massive enough to warrant that sort of wondrous envy.  :shrug:  If that's rude then oh well.

Misting the fruits isn't what made them decide to be big though, if you think that, then I'd suggest doing a few dozen more grows and a lot more reading.  Genetics and water content of the substrate have a lot more to do with it.  I hold back on misting directly once the fruits are more than halfway developed usually because it makes drying them so much more of a pain in the ass if they're all soggy.




I think it might affect your dry down weight, which some might equate with potency loss.  Everybody says the easy math is 10% of wet.  I find I'm only getting 5 - 6 % of wet back.  That's just my limited experience at this time.  I'd love to get 10% of wet, lol.

That said, I would expect the dried weight to yield the proper state for that particular weight, original wet weight irregardless.

But are you cutting back on misting within the last 24-36 hours before harvest?  That can have a pretty big effect on your dry down weight ratio.

Do not mist. Toss. Start from scratch. It only gets worse if you try to salvage or keep shit around

Once you get it have fun getting rid. It's so easy to make it worse. One weak grow gets it and you spread it to healthy shit

Will look at that next round.  I took the plunge and ate 45g out of one flush fresh and they'd have made a watermelon envious.  Like a chewy straw the wasn't quite empty (yukk bieng the operative term).

Shit.. I'm thinking now that the first tub with the "MASSIVE" fruits must have infected this tub..

It was straw/coir so I feel like it's pretty contam resistant itself, but after the dunk it smelled bad, and had a yellow spot. Tbh I'm surprised I even got that second flush, but at the cost of this PE tub =/

And what's pigeon PE? Is bacteria / poor environment what causes that fat guy look?

Last time I checked it still rains outside and mine aren't non potent.
Water is needed for all growth so I highly doubt the theory would be true. Just a guess tho...
