Hericium on WBS - what should it look like?
    #26460316 - 01/30/20 01:54 PM (3 years, 11 months ago)

I'm used to growing oysters which have thick, aggressively colonizing mycelium, so growing another species is throwing me off.

This is Hericium abietis on agar made with WBS soak water. This plate is pretty old; oysters plated on the same day fully colonized the plates more than a week ago.


Here are the jars. Two of the four were contaminated. The jars have been sitting for a bit long, so there are fruits forming. They look like gross chunks in these pictures, but each white clump is indeed its own fruiting body complete with teeth. There is thin, hardly visible mycelium which is not at all obvious. The more it fruits, the more I assume this is just how this species grows.


The LC I started from is a few years old. Is this strain just old or weak from contamination? or is Hericium mycelium always so hard to see? or both?




Oyster on WBS for comparison, a solid white brick of mycelium.

I'm never grown this one but Hericium erinaceus is very wispy and does the same thing with the fruits

Looks about right for hericium :thumbup:

I've grown erinaceous, coralloides, and one other, and all were pretty similar.  Thin and wispy as cobweb mold, and fruits before it even looks colonized.

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.
