Does size really matter? First grow.
    #26941868 - 09/18/20 07:28 AM (3 years, 4 months ago)

Thank you to this community!! I am officially harvesting later this morning. Very happy with my first mono. It was a mini mono of GT. Is the size of the mushroom dependent mostly on genetics? And are the larger mushrooms more potent? Here’s some porn of the tub:

Size of the mushys don't matter potency is all in the genetics. Expect for PE which everyone says is normally higher potency I have PE on agar now cant wait to find out for myself!

All things being equal, mostly yes. Later flushes tend to have fewer, but larger mushrooms.

Quote:

And are the larger mushrooms more potent?




As a rule, no. Larger mushrooms also tend to be less dense, especially in later flushes. Hollow stems are not unusual. The dry potency-per-weight may not change, but they can seem less potent due to the lower density when consumed fresh with all the extra moisture. That's why I always weigh them fresh and spot check the dry weights periodically to gauge water content. Some dry to 8% of the wet weight and others 12%. That's a 50% dosage variation if you're trying to extrapolate a dry equivalent dose from fresh.

Where if you're alone, you know, you either come through it or you die, but in any case you avoid the fuss.'"

I’d sell mi abuela for 12% dry weight. I’ve had some dry in around 10.2 or .3% but usually it hovers around 8.5-9.5%

Nice first grow man, congrats :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2:

8-12% hey? Interesting. From my calculations I’m at about 10%. I’ve wondered about dunking the water content I took out with and see if the precision is at all helpful. Appreciate the compliments, it was an exciting journey.
