Pins and fruits at different stages of growth. When to dunk for second flush?
    #26975392 - 10/08/20 12:14 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

I harvested a bunch of fruits today. And, as you can see in the photo, the other pins and fruits are at different stages of growth.

I'll harvest the biggest ones in the photo (with open cap) tomorrow. But I'd still have a bunch of pins which are at 30%, 50%, 70% etc.

The cake is starting to feel dry. When and how can I safely dunk it for the next flush? Without damaging the pins that are already growing.

Observe the various Characteristic of fruits and their development to learn to differentiate between small fruits that won't grow much more if at all from those fruits that are still growing and will keep increasing in size for several days to come. Your observations will teach you Infinitely more than any description on this procedure given to you. Look for categorical fruit dimension proportions to see if you can recognize big babies that are growing and also look for the tiny fruits that look more like adults than babies, having completed spore production thus being fully mature and at the end of their life cycle.

Excellent answer. Thanks a lot :smile: Based on my experience so far, I think I could reasonably differentiate between big babies and tiny adults.

I have 2 followup questions.

1) If I do have fruits that are still growing, but the cake is starting to feel dry... Should I wait till the fruits are fully grown before dunking again?

2) So far, I've been picking the mushrooms a day or two after the veil breaks. When they kinda look like the mushrooms in your sig. Do they keep growing even after that? Searching the forum gives me mixed answers for this one..
