Growbox gives small shrooms
    #28475171 - 09/19/23 03:53 PM (1 year, 3 months ago)

Dear wise growers,

I got a question related to a growbox I purchased recently to restart a culture after many months of doing nothing.

The box gave pins beautifully but the shrooms are small and deformed. I suspect a lack of air. The box is inside a bag with micro holes punched on the sides.

I also noticed fluffy mycelium on the surface that takes over pins and aborts. It looks like the same color as cubes mycelium but under a certain angle, it seems to me like it has a slightly blue shade to it. Might be contam.

Any idea? I will post pictures tomorrow.

Thanks!

Hi there,

I add a few pictures to my post.

In the end, the flush was quite nice after I opened fae more.



But white/bluish fluff on surface looks like contam (unless it's air depraved myc). Anyone's opinion is welcome on that:



I harvested side pins and shrooms today, I would like to make sure that they are not rotten. Is there a surefire way to know? These side pins and shrooms have been left alone since I got the box (so they've been there between 1 and 2 weeks). You can see them all around normal shrooms on the plate below:



Some of them have a really weird color but I don't know if it's bruise or rot.

I put them to pre-drying for the night.

Thanks for your feedback!

pre-drying



We dry at 160°F for 24 hours. No one else pre-dries.

Those nasty one are N-A-S-T-Y!  Don't eat those if you have any self respect.

The good fruits look really beautiful though.  It's quite the contrast.

Clear, thank you Yahra and Kinoko!

No pre-drying though? Well I must have outdated guidelines :laugh:...

Have a great day!
