Just over hydrated mushies.. they do that if they’re too wet.  Anytime I’ve had that happen, they dried paper thin.  Ease up on the moisture, but otherwise they look good!

That's mycelium, and ic caused by too wet environment. Is caused either by too high humidity or excessive misting resulting in soaking the fruits. I'd say your fruits looks like they have been soaked a little, the slimey caps and discoloration in the fruits tells me this. How often do you mist? Or how much?

Those spikey myc are too wet.. usually easy to tell because the fruit looks like it does above... very golden stems that burst in places with a soaked cap.  Fuzzy feet are low FAE usually

I see. So spikey mycelium indicates too much moisture while fuzzy/puffy mycelium indicates low FAE. Is that correct?

That’s usually what goes through my mind when I see those things.  At least that’s where I start before I take other environmental factors into consideration

Thanks guys! Mist about 3-4 times with additional bottom watering.

Fan them about 6 times a day for about 1minute each.

A could over mist them for a couple last days because I thought that my tiny little fruits that were ready for harvest are due to the low humidity condition.

Maybe I was wrong...

PS. LOve Shrooms but Hate doing CAKES!

Definitely easy up on the misting, like a lot. Only mist when needed. If your cakes are still wrt, do not mist! Mist as needed.

U planning on going agar-grains next?

For sure brother! I've been almost 6 months and I have only 5g dried mushrooms.

I'm so frustrated! It will be more but cakes are not worth it. And the Fucking GrowKIt ! :grin:

But I need to invest almost 200$ to get PC from US.

Did you struggle for so long with the results too?

Sorry to hear that.

I dont struggle with cakes. If you do everything correctly start to finish, you should get some pretty nice yields even from cakes. Of course Ive been growing for about 13 years, so that always helps :thumbup:
