Can you mist directly on the mushrooms?

Can you mist directly on the mushrooms while they are fruting half way to harvest? Is there any benefit to doing so? Or is there no benefit at all but harmful? Do you do it?

Rather not. They become "spongy" and strange looking. If they're halfway done, then just wait 1-2 days and leave them alone.

If it doesn't evaporate with in a few hours or something it will grow bacteria on them that causes spots and there to long will eat it up. I'm pretty sure.
Try bottom watering

If the sub is fruiting, it is best to leave them alone IME. Unless you know that the sub is really dry for sure - let them be for the first flush and then water the sub to replace what is lost. This is where the 'art' part of the 'science' and 'art' of mushroom growing  comes in.

As a side note; if you are growing panaeolus species, NEVER mist after you see pins -it kills 'em IME.  But I assume you are growing cubes. Good luck.

The thing is, I misted and fanned them, twice, and it seems to have helped them grow healthier and bigger. Now they have stripes on the shaft, and are larger. And I have noticed that stripes on the shaft seems to indicate healthy strong mushrooms.

Or I'm just imagining... But it feels logical that it would be good considering that it is raining out in nature?

Nah, I would just relax. There is a contam that presents  itself on mushrooms like you see  that are caused by Verticillium, but that isn't your problem. (It causes spots on Button mushrooms and streaks on Cubies). I don't know why Cubies get brown steaks on their stems, but IME it just happens.

So far things look A OK.

That is not to say that Cubies don't get Verticillium, they do. But not here lol. You are looking good...:rockon:

Definetly okay to spray dry fruits.

Yeah if you have enough air flow it’s fine. If they’re gonna sit and soak then it’ll be bad.
