For comparison my old grow, roughly the same stage, started pinning around 30 days in:

If they are the same species, I could see that. Obviously its just hypothetical but I really start to wonder if the thin stems and upcurled caps might be some equivalent decadence in the gene pool, like fatass P fanaticus cubes were.
Edit: this was MS

Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CF2514A/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Use it mostly for gourmet. I made a base out of 2x4 and lined it with Panda film. The entire tent just sits inside it. The bottom is filled with a combination of perlite and Hydroton that I keep wet. There is another small fan that blows across the perlite to help it evaporate moisture.
I actually have 4 bags of Shitake ready to cold shock. Just been lazy so tent was empty.

That's the one I have in my cart right now. 
Tired of the cat tearing into the 4x4 and this one fits a room I can lock him out of. I'm sure I'll hear it though lol. Although not really needed for Vivas, if you want to get into other exotic species an edibles set up is the best IMO. The Zapo crowd has seen me preach it.. even though I have done fairly well with tubs. Regardless, there's a noticeable difference having the extra air space.

Yea I'm seriously considering moving the 2 shoeboxes out of the water tub and into the tent. Those seem to be taller and skinnier than these. Only reason I haven't so far is they are also from different spore plates so could be genetic and not environmental.

@the chosen one, damn cats! Lol. I have my Martha inside of a grow tent and they were tearing it up. I put a scratching post next to it and it solved the problem

He's got two and it doesn't matter. Little shit sees me go in there and he just has to check it out. Same with my clean room. It's the same 4x4 Stor-Pod only it's back pressured by Billys old flow hood.
I'll never give up my cookie jars though.   Finally broke one out for this stubborn ass SW. This is another culture so maybe this one will fruit. The other old one is still hanging around in a tub. The pseudo sclerocia are getting bigger. I still need to clone the one I posted earlier. It's probably twice the size now.

Well maybe not twice as big lol.
 But it's Deadpooling up some fingers and toes.


And yeah the green is algae.. maybe some young moss. It has been seven months.

About to test potency of premature fruits. got 3/4 g dry between the aborts and a couple others I pulled. Just finished lemon tek and drinking tea now.

WOW these little fuckers are next level. If they get stronger I may be in trouble.
Can't say it was a "pleasant" trip, but it was definitely different and I don't think there are actually bad trips. The mushrooms show us what they will. No more, No less.
First off I can't do lemon tek in tea it seems. This is second time I tried it and second time I got sick. Can't have that liquid in my stomach I guess. That being said I probably only got 1/2 the dose because of that.
I have head these called Happy mushrooms and was kind of expecting to get all giggly like I do on other mushrooms. Instead they actually removed ALL emotion. For the first time in years I was completely free from Anger, Fear, Pain and pretty much anything. I lost a full 2 hours in this state before I could move again. Had a descent amount of CEV mostly fractals and was feeling the effects for a good 4-5 hours though after the first 2 to a much lesser extent.
Update on the grow. I moved all the shoeboxes into the tent before I tripped this morning. The tubs that were in the water tub were getting really leggy and caps flattening out.

There's nothing like trying a new species for the first time. Especially the lesser known. My first time with these was friggin nuts. I did .5g in cocoa and felt it start to hit in about 4 minutes. Knew I was in trouble lol. Wonder if cocoa might be better for you. I had very little discomfort and I'm sensitive that way.
Those bell caps are definitely clone worthy. Most of what I've seen are like the second and third pic.

I usually make chocolates or just do capsules. Was in a hurry to try them though.

I make tea with just shrooms, no citrus acid or lemon juice. Then add hot cocoa mix. It's perfect. No shroom taste, and I don't notice any potency loss.

I already have my eye on a few for cloning. However I'm really watching that tub in the 4th picture. It is from the same culture as the 2 tubs that don't have such nice caps but has been in the tent since pins formed. That will tell me if it's genetic or environment. So far it also looks to be staying shorter and hopefully will also get nice bell caps. The other 2 were in a water tub with a bubbler till this morning.
I also knocked up 6 jars from the LC made from the culture that has the nice caps so will watch that group as well. Loving this grow though.

Other than just waiting for them to spew spores everywhere, how do I know when these are ready to pick? I notice a couple of the larger bell caps getting darker but don't know if they are getting ready to drop spores or if perhaps its the beginning of an issue. They are only 30 days S2B so by my original 6 week calculation (based on other peoples times) they should still need almost 2 more weeks. The ones in the back are not dark just in shade.
So far that tub in second picture is looking nice with what seem to be bell caps starting. Hopefully this is environmental and not genetic. That tub is from same spore plate as the 2 tubs that don't have really bell shaped caps but has been in the tent since pinning.
