Just remove whatever falls off. Then dunk and roll.

They probably don’t need the bottom watering, especially since you just dunked them. It’s and either or I think, unless they’re sitting real long after the dunk without fruiting and just drying out. They look wet in those pictures.

I think you’re just overthinking things:) which is what a lot of people do first time. Mushroom growing is mainly about patience. Sterile tek during inoculation, then just wait. Spawn (or birth cakes), then just wait again. Occasional misting if things get dry. That’s it really.

Ok I need to stop worrying about them. Quick question why do we not let them sit directly on the perlite? I have my thoughts but

"fresh cap mushrooms" on YouTube does some great gourmet tutorials, and the dude always says scraping with a fork invigorates mycelium and induces pinning on sawdust blocks :shrug:. I have two blocks of lions mane going right now. I scraped one, and left the other. They pinned at the same time. I don't see a difference really.

Why would you scrape off the verm layer to then put a new one on there?




Bear in mind, I am very new, so my knowledge reflects that, and you should take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I can give you my reason. Its not that I don't want the verm layer on top, per se. The problem is that the verm layer is fine lining the top of the jars, with the four inoculation holes on the lids. But when I was birthing my jars, I had to ask myself, "What is this verm layer for?" The answer is its a barrier between the inoculated/colonized substrate and the air via the holes. So my hypothesis, for what its worth, is that in the 3-6 weeks of colonization and consolidation, how much crap and potential contaminants get caught in that little Verm buffer that protects the cakes? Do I really want to put that into my fruiting chamber knowing that there might be all manner of mold or other contaminants trapped in that layer? So I scrape it off, gently and carefully, and I roll the cakes in fresh verm.

Again, take my opinion on this with a grain of salt.
