Lacey mycelia growing from Oyster caps
    #26900213 - 08/26/20 10:00 AM (3 years, 5 months ago)

Hello, I've been growing casually for a year or two and have not encountered this before: lacey mycelia (I presume), growing directly from the edges of Oyster fruits (Pearl). I should have harvested these yesterday but when I awoke this morning, the spores had sprung and I photographed these beautiful webs hanging down. Is this a common occurrence?

One thing different this time is how long I waited before I opened the grow bags to initiate fruiting. Some of them had super-aggressive mycelia that had actually penetrated the filter patch and were trying to fruit. Holy shit, mushrooms are so freaky and wild and crazy beautiful!

These are spores, they sometimes catch onto eachother like this, nothing to worry about. Harvesting a day earlier would indeed solve this.

Are you serious?  Never seen that. 

What makes them stick like that, static electricity?

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.

Seems to happen most when there is basically no air circulation. They shoot their spores away by merging with a tiny water droplet, in already very humid air, it might just be wet and sticky without a lot of air movement I guess. Static might have something to do with the forms they takes, or because the spore surface is hydrophobic, repelling new still wet spores from sticking directly to it. But not sure, maybe someone more knowledgeable can add some here.
