    #27033080 - 11/11/20 09:34 AM (3 years, 2 months ago)

Hey guys sorry for the silly question but I've looked allot but still confused how far off are these? should the stem get thinner first?







Ill get some better close ups when I open the chamber!

Thanks!

wait for the cap to start opening up and youll see a vail

once the vail starts to break is good time to harvest. You wanna get them before they open up and dump spores

unless you were looking to take prints, in that case just let them open all the way up till you see them dropping spores

It was my impression that once you open up to harvest the mushrooms that are ready, you should also go ahead and harvest the smaller ones that aren't quite at veil-breaking stage yet- is that correct? Most of the fruits in a given flush could be moving along at relatively the same rate, but there tends to be a handful that are either just sprouting up or about halfway between fruiting and dropping spores.

I've been going ahead and harvesting all of the fruits (I'm talking some as big as a pinky-nail but still obviously pins) before dunking my sub and setting it for the next flush. However I talked with a friend recently who said that he opens up and harvests the fruits individually as they reach the veil-breaking stage. Any thoughts?

Edit: I think the reasoning I had heard for harvesting all of them was that after you dunk your sub/harvest the bigger fruits, the pins that are still on the sub are going to abort/rot anyway, so you're better off taking them as well.

Its best to harvest when the veil breaks from the cap. Its got some more growing to do.

Also, whats that electronic circuit board doing in there? :strokebeard:

Those have at least a couple days to go. I’d guess three.

Probably another half day or so.. maybe a lil longer, but it really depends on the culture.. some are faster than others.  I usually find the slower growers to pack a bit more punch

A bit early but not by much. I like to harvest right when the veil rips from the cap.
