Possible contamination? Or natural appearance?
    #26747476 - 06/15/20 07:45 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

So this is my first time ever trying to grow mushrooms, and I’m not sure is this discoloration looks natural or is the beginnings if mold on the tops of my mushrooms. Are these worth saving? Or am I right in throwing these out. They’re the breed Moby Dick if anyone has experience with the same thing. I would appreciate any advice on this.

It looks like heat stress. They should be fine but move your light off of the top of the tub.

Mist less, but more frequently:  these remind me if fruit that sat wet for a while and then dried too much before additional misting

Ah, i do think I misted them a little too much when they were smaller, I’ve been misting only the sides now, and I guess I can save the tub? I will also move the light away, this tub was the closest. Thank you for the help! I feel like young mycelium absorbing your experience.

Best thing you can do is harvest when you're ready:  wait a day or 2 and rehydrate with a bottom water: close it and leave it alone

Young mycelium? That's reaching a bit
