Dumping cold ice on gyms to force fruiting
    #23753119 - 10/19/16 08:20 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Okay so i read online that cooling down gyms will pin if you make the temperature drop, so i went out to my favorite picking spot and dumped ice on it to see if it'll force growth in 4-5 days, was this a good idea?
Now that the season is over i'm trying to get a last pick in, i also sprayed a bunch of spores all over the place.
Also do you know how long mulch will be good for mushroom growth, it's been two years and they've been good for growth so far, should i maybe get some new mulch?

Worth a shot i guess, worst that could happen is you melt some ice.:grin:

I love overly specific thread titles.
"cold ice" as if there is another kind of ice.
It's like saying "I lit my joint with hot fire".

Try it and post results!

Cold slows mycelial growth normally. Mycelium can live dormant under soil during cold months I believe.

It will slowly lose its nutrients until it becomes soil. Kind of an odd question.
I did find this thread though. It seems interesting.
