Damn dude, that 3782 block looks a little overcrowded! See how the mushrooms are bumping into each other, bending their caps? I think your yields may be too high. You might wanna switch to a shittier strain.
j/k, that's freakin' awesome. I've had that culture for like 2 years now and still haven't grown it. I REALLY, really must do so. Awesome results You are motivating me... maybe if I hang out here long enough, I will actually start growing some mushrooms again. Because seeing pics like that makes me JEALOUS!!! And hungry 
One question - is it sensitive to pinning early invitro (before fully browned) if you have a slight temp drop? I've had issues with other strains doing that... But now I live in my own house with a relatively stable basement temperature, of probably 55-60ish? Think that strain would colonize and fully brown just fine at those temps?

I grow them on HWFP with about 8% wheat bran. I just incubate at room temp. so there isn't much temp fluctuation in temps. After they brown, I cold shock in the fridge from 1-2 days. Then I slap the shiitake out of them. Then just wait for a nice pinset before striping the bag and rinsing them off. They should colonize ok at 50-60. Maybe a little slower. I'm at about 70f for incubation.

Hey grower, nice stuff, trying to beat the tulips of your wife? Or did you by them?
Here's the reishi you send me, I'm not as good as you yet. It's fun though. It's sticking its head out of the bag now. He's a bit impressed with all the shiitake around him

It's supposed to be in vitro reishi, but it is a very bad example. The antler is crawling up on the side of the bag, it's supposed to be in the middle. I already harvested several antlers that were better shaped. I think I 've put in too much sawdust, there's not enough room between the block surface and the top of the bag. I'll get better along the way. It's fun, changes a bit from shiitake ever day, week, month, year.

Haha, I love the table ornament. Got an old Chia-pet sitting around? That would be cool to fill with reishi substrate and see what happens.

Nice fruit quality there Mystic! I'd harvest a day sooner though, before those edges of the caps start to get wavy like that. Not only will it reduce much of the spore load, the fruits should have a longer shelf life.
