Looking for advice on fruiting nats. Got this LC from a reputable local vendor who has helped me this far with some great genetics.
I'm stuck on this natalensis, the mycelium has grown well and I've preemptively prepared an excess of grain spawn, however it's been put to bulk in a mono tub with little sign of fruiting. It's being outpaced by PE atm from bulk to fruit.

I've heard they require a world of fae, but how much Fae am I looking at? And is required "to" fruit or to maintain healthy fruit?

Kinda looks like you’ve got pins in the bottom left area there, or am I trippin, it’s pretty blurry. My ms grows took almost 5 weeks to pin.

More likely metabolites/water from wet coir.

They will grow in literally the exact same conditions as cubes. I treat mine the same as cubes, no casing, no more fae or anything in a modified monotub. Mine still come out more spaghetti like, which I’m sure more fae would change that. Regardless tho, you should still be getting fruits. Was your grain spawn clean?
And I don’t see any metabolites lol. Just blurry over there

Should I harvest now?
That's when I harvest mine.. I find the caps get too brittle when dry if I let them fan out / drop spores.
& Thanks @MojaveMyc ..I've mixed up all my tubs of different varieties as I thought it'd be fun lol but now I'm just confused between what's what.

Too my knowledge, no discolouration or odour. I've made subsequent jars all oats (my new favourite grain)


As it stands there isn't overlay it's just sitting there. That being said it's only been in fruiting conditions for two weeks (same as PE I'm growing)
I may just be a tad impatient

Yeah not what I expected at all from the rhyzmorphic storm I thought I was going to get upon researching natalensis.
That said so far of the 10 strains I've grown from this person everything else has been spot. In hindsight though I'm not sure about the Trinity PE

.
But everything else was awesome 🤘🏻 I may have mislabeled the jars whilst initially inoculating... I am somewhat of a whiskey enthusiast 🤣

Yeah just give it more time yet. Aspectofthecreator I believe was just going through the same thing and then his shit just blew up all of a sudden. He posted above

A strange question but why does my Natalensis spawn smell sweet? The jars don't look contaminated but they all have sweet smell?
Which makes me wonder. If nats are so super contam resistant do they produce their own form of alcohol to combat other fungus and mold like yeast does?
I've had a variety of different contams but they've all had a sour smell or visual indicator. The myc in these jars appeared more vigorous than the younger ones I photographed yesterday
Here is some of the older jars that are due to be put tub

They do have a kind of sweet mushroomy scent to me. Just the smell of fresh mushrooms I guess. Smells similar to cubes but a bit more potent of an odor.

If that's the case they are likely infected as it's a strong sweet smell, rather floral like a perfume Oh well, to quarantine they go 🤣

That rolls off the tongue nicely. I'm hearing it with emphasis on the first and third syllables, with strongest on the first. NAT-al-Ig-ma.
Hello everybody, have we come up with any cool Nat mutants yet? Or albino's?? I was reading this thread https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/27655485#27655485
Where they were talking about it. Just wondering if anything ever came of it?? IDK why but a NATaligma sounds like it would be cool.

Intensely bitter and strong af. Cloned this bad boy and the tub is just about to pin.

You might yet be pleasantly surprised. My first Nats were done on PF so I could get clones & spores to play with. They smelt like lemon sherbet to me. The next grow was tubs that didn't smell of much at all. The latest are some shoeboxes (I wasn't 100% confident of the spawn because I rehydrated the jars after they stalled) and the lemon smell's back.
As an aside, 3g of the fruits from the PF cakes fucked me up (in a good way). I've not even tried the tubs yet

Yeahhh!!! Like that!!! Does anybody else have any cool mutants like that? Or a leucistic/albino Nat?? There has to be more people pheno-hunting and cloning with this species? right??

Albino Nats would be cool AF. I remember seeing a guy a year or so claiming one but no one was convinced.
