Temporary stop cubensis growth
    #23935042 - 12/17/16 10:41 AM (7 years, 1 month ago)

tl;dr will cubensis grow kit stop growing when placed in fridge for 10 days and resume growth when taking out later?

Dear mycologists,

I have a grow kit that I will have to harvest in the next few days, but I am going to be on vacation for the next 10 days, so I fear I will be way to late and have ugly, muddy, humongous mushrooms that drained all the substrate when I come back home.
In my, very basic, understanding of growing mushrooms, I thought I could just put the growkit into the fridge for the next 10 days to slow down the growth and take em out once I am back.
Will that work? I am afraid something might cause my cubensis to start growing "truffels " because I read years ago that low temperatures might cause this. But I am not sure.

Any help appreciated!

Thanks !

It will dramatically slow the growth but it will not stop the growth, 10 days is a very long time to leave them.
How close to harvest are they, can you post a photo? I would just do an early harvest then leave it alone until you get back.

What the fuck. :lol:
Your culture is Psilocybe cubensis, right?

Cubensis is incapable of making sclerotia/truffles

Hell, even if they could, don't stick your nose up at truffles.

Thank you for your answers!
I do grow cubensis, I didn't knew they don't grow truffles.
I can't post a picture, but they are just starting to grow little pins.
I assume I will have to harvest in around 4 days.
Will lowering the temperature slow the growth further down ?

It will slow it dramatically, but I think 10 days will be quite a big chance to take.
However look on the bright side, it's just one flush, and you can get several flushes.

As I stated previously, if it was me in your exact situation, I would wait until right before leaving and harvest whatever is there, even if it's just pins.
Then just let it sit 'til I got back. I hate sporeplosions.
