HELP. First timer. Ordered Golden teachers. Concerned about strain and when to harvest. * 1
    #26576439 - 04/04/20 12:02 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Here is what I got. First time grower.  1 week in fruiting chamber. The veil appears broken. Cap is darkening/cracking. When to harvest from this point on? Humidity stays above 80 at all times. No direct misting. My concern is that I was told GT strain would grow to larger size. These are only a few cm long. Could I possibly have PE strain instead ?

Thank you ted. This is my first time attempting so I’m very grateful for everyone here. Wouldn’t be possible without y’all. Should I be concerned about the veil breaking at just 4 cm ? And do these appear to be GT?

How often are you misting?

There's no veil breaking yet and there's no way to tell if it's a GT. And it doesn't matter much either, since cube is a cube is a cube unless it's one of PEs. It's highly unlikely you'd get a PE instead of a GT.

Misting/fanning every few hours making sure not to mist the cakes. Holes in all six sides of container. Perilite is moist. Also have a humidifier in room to aid in overall humidity that I turn on occasionally. . Very concerned because they all are so small with what appears to be veils breaking. I am very new to this and any input is greatly appreciated! Thank you all!  Does this appear to be PE?

No, it doesn't appear to be PE and none of your veils are breaking yet

Thank you all for your advice and input. I’ve decreased misting and increased my airflow. Will post pic when ready for harvest.

How close to harvest? And how to get the shrooms to grow up not outward??? [Re: Madrox56] * 1
    #26580679 - 04/05/20 10:32 PM (3 years, 10 months ago)

How close to harvest? And how to get the shrooms to grow up not outward???  I’m thinking of harvesting the two largest soon (as in within 12 hours)  before they drop their spores. Also. How is it one of my cakes has so much growth but one barley has any growth at all???

So excited for my first harvest! Now my present issue is how to dry them. Considering it seems they will all be on different time spans. What would be the best method ?

A dehydrator works best. I current use a lamp drying method that works well. But dehydrators are the best choice.

I have a heat lamp for my reptile. I believe 75 watt. How long and at what height do you dry yours ? I also have 50 gram Desiccant Packs. Those things are huge. My plan initially was to just place the shroom in a small airtight container with them.

Takes a couple days. Its a slow process. I flip them over after day one. Its basically slow-cook baking.

Place shrooms on a cookie sheet or tin foil to help dry them this way.
