Can you overdose on shrooms? What happens if you eat too many? Lack of inhibition?

We fruit at spawning. The mushrooms pin when the substrate is colonized.

To take this a step further, I’d argue we fruit even before spawning. My agar plates and jars have good air exchange, so personally, my cultures are in fruiting conditions from the second I put spores to agar!

That's a fruit, yes.

What's a flush?

Edit:
a flush is what you often get when you give the mushrooms conditions to thrive in, when you make them sense like throwing out fruits abundantly is the best choice. they will always go for whats best for them.  good luck seeing one in a closed jar full of co2.

and that was my point in this debate.
mushrooms can fruit in many suboptimal conditions. but finding out what makes them really happy.. it's what this hobby is all about imo

so tell me, when you leave your jars fully colonized and you keep them sitting for another 2 weeks or so, do they pin? do they fruit in the jars?

Yahra said:

Oh, there was an abundance of pins in that jar.

If you look closely, you can see at least 3 pins in the image detail i posted.

I just birthed that jar in order to give that flush more space to grow.

good luck, hope it's a royal flush

Yeah, they knot up pretty quick if I don’t stall extras in the refrigerator.

germination plate -> 3 wedges -> T1 plate

Also, there is no specific thing to look for in a transfer candidate right? Just grab whatever myc has developed the most?

Just fast moving from the outer edge,
well organized at it´s best.

I'm about to do T1 from germ plates, I was wondering if I should put a single wedge in each transfer plate or put 2-3 wedges (from the same donor plate).

So it would be:
germination plate -> 3 wedges -> T1 plate
Or
germination plate -> 1 wedge -> T1 plate

Is there an advantage in multiple wedges? Like do you get more variety and reduce the risk of picking up a fast growing myc which is a poor fruiter?

Also, there is no specific thing to look for in a transfer candidate right? Just grab whatever myc has developed the most?

Of course it's a flush per your definition.
