PE First grow, first pins! Now sexy fruits! 2

Greetings shroomers!
First grow, PE, first pins ever, just wanted to share!



Was mixed into substrate on the 11th, using Bod's easy AF teks throughout the process. Shoutout and big thanks to Bod for such good TEKs.
One question is, I've heard PE's take longer than most other strains to grow, so 12 days to see the first pins, is that considered early pinning?
Just wanted to know if there is something I can improve upon, for example more misting/FAE. Substrate doesn't seem to be contaminated, so am surprised about early pinning too!

12 days for PE is a little fast, but it's looking good so I would just keep doing what you're doing.
Surface looks a little funky just be easy on the misting and give it plenty of air. 
There is a small possibility that these aren't PE....was this from a spore syringe?

Looks to be too moist? I've been monitoring the misting, and think I might have over did it in the beginning, so adjusting it now..

It was definitely from a Spore syringe from reputable vendor, and It was labelled as PE, so yes, it surprise me too.
Wondering if it's going great, or going south, So I can learn and adjust the next grow!

You got pins so it still salvageable and yeah I was suspecting you might have been misting a little heavy.
Sometimes even reputable vendors mislabel things. ..I had a GT syringe turn out to be oysters long ago so it can happen. 
Just easy on the misting and give it plenty of air without drying things out and you should be fine.

4 days since first pin.


Crossing my fingers, toes, and eyes, hoping they will grow thick, and erect!
Looking forward to a wonderful trip eating them soon..my dehydrator is waiting, and so am I..

You’re gonna have a nice supply when this is done. These things grow super heavy.
I like the caps I rarely get the dots on mine.
This was one of mine that looked similar, four days from the first pin and finished.

yours will be way better too, I bet you hit near 2oz. Great first grow.
Is yours all coir with no 5050 casing?

Yes, 100% coir indeed. I decided to add a tiny layer of coir to try to keep substrate nice and moist.
The edges of the tub kinda turned yellowish, and no pins on the extremely yellow parts, thinking maybe secondary metabolites from fighting contam, or too dry?
I'ma try 5050 casing next time!
You got me hyped now about the harvest, I keep sneaking peeks at the tubs throughout the day. What a magical feeling!
Will keep updating as it comes along!

So it's day 5!
I noticed the PE's that were growing smooth stems are starting to get a little bumpy and rubbly..They also grow towards the substrate instead of upwards, like limp PE's? Maybe more FAE?
I was wondering if the reason why the fruits are growing kinda shriveled too towards the cap is because of a lack of water/moisture? Perhaps bottom watering might help?
I put my hands about an inch above the fruits, and can feel the heat radiating off the surface..super interesting..
Tub 1


Tub 2 - first pins a day later than tub 1



Question about Harvesting.
In such a case where fruits are so densely packed, but growing at uneven rates. Do we usually wait for all of them to mature, and cut them at the stem in one go? Or is it healthier to pull as they mature for the fruits, substrate, and for subsequent flushes?

I’d just wait with PE. A couple are close to done it looks like. We PE though you can usually carefully peel one off the edge of a cluster without hurting anything.
I thought this was a shoebox before, you’re gonna have a shit ton of PE.
You should pull up that thick bumpy one with the cap slightly open and eat it so you know what you’re dealing with lol.
How much spawn is in this??
also totally normal for them to grow anywhere but straight up. They look very healthy.

This is a Unmodified Monotub, following Bod's easy AF TEKs.
A shit ton of PE? I sure do hope so! So much more rewarding to be able to grow your own supply! I'm hoping for more flushes too, perhaps 2-3 extra flushes?
Quote:

5QT spawn to 650g brick of Coir for each tub.
I have another 10QT spawn, slowly colonizing, planning for another 2 tubs. Then I'll have much Agar and clone work to do!

Thank you for the reassurance, I got a little worried, and my wife told me otherwise! HAHA
This two tubs of PE's seem to be shorties due to their genetics. I've seen other people PE's grow really talk and chonky!
I just squeezed a couple of bigger fruits with open caps, and they are spongy, had slight bruising in the pattern of my fingerprints. Feels like maybe they are almost ready.

Hell yeaaaa...I've been resisting pulling that big boy and chomping it, but my gut says wait a little longer, till Friday, and then pull it, clone, dry, and Lemon tek it!
I've never done fresh shrooms and would like to give it a go, but don't really know the dosage translations...might get shot into hyperspace! HAHA

This is from a couple of hours ago!
Some of them look pretty ripe and ready!
Tub A


Tub B


I can't wait any longer, want to harvest and clone ASAP, maybe tomorrow, latest Friday. Dry, and have a magical weekend!
I noticed the surface of the substrate in some areas where it's visible is starting to bruise or turn bluish. Is that perhaps due to it being too dry?
Thank you fellow shroomers for keeping this community alive, especially during this Covid situation!

Greetings myco family!
Today was an auspicious day of harvest, and as I write this post, it is drying!

First tub harvested - 1610g / 3.549lbs Wet 


Did some cloning to Agar, and now ready to hit the sack!
Going to harvest the next tub tomorrow, and journey with fresh 20-25g!
Can't wait!!
