Urgent Harvest Question * 1
    #26422300 - 01/08/20 02:15 AM (4 years, 21 days ago)

I have an incoming flush of PE6 that is very dense. Some of the fruits are going to sporulate before the others break their veils.

My question is, would it be ideal to let all the mushrooms peak before harvesting any of them, as to pick them prior would disrupt the surrounding pins/fruits from maturing completely or at their own pace.

I'll try to have pictures up soon.

Thanks for the help in advance.

Pick the ones that are ready.  Just be careful.

PE don't sporulate much anyway but that's beside the point.

I do selective harvesting. Just remember the ones that aren't ready will probably be open in 6 hours so you have to be on top of it. Sometimes its worth taking full clusters or sections if there almost all there if your not gonna be just sitting around watching tubs.

The thing is I’d like to not pick them until I can pick them all, in other words, or phased differently, how long can I let them be after the veil retracts so to let the others reach their maturity, 6-18 hours?

I’m very tired so please look past odd syntax.

U could try snipping the mature ones with scissors or a razor blade :shrug:

I think PE6 is more cube-like and will sporulate, so best to pick the mature ones now.

I’m okay with sporulation “cosmetically”, but not if it’s detrimental for the next flush.

There's no specific time frame you CAN wait.  You CAN wait till they're all withering if you want.

I'd just wait till you have a convenient time to harvest.  If you want to maximize weight, simply wait till they've all broken their veils. 

Alternatively, if some already have broken veils, the others aren't likely too far behind, simply harvest them all now.  Commercially, unbroken veils are the standard, I believe.

Not sure what u mean by this statement but it sounds like u are afraid sporulation will prevent the next flush from fruiting. It wont affect it but its always best not to have spores all over your fruits/substrate.
