First time grower, APE, when to harvest?

Do I ignore the open viel and wait for them to be squishy? When some start to get squishy do I harvest all of it or the singles?
Thanks for the help.

Huh I've never heard of the squishy theory before... interesting...
But yeah like he said you can harvest singles just be careful then wait for the rest

When the edges of the cap upturn like that, its time to harvest.
Not sure about this squishy business thou

You harvest blobs, PE, melmak, ape, albinos etc when the mushrooms start to go soft.

Thank you hopefully I will be able to learn something new everyday.
Would you be able to explain why exactly? Just out of curiosity what makes them different other than genetics, I know they are different to judge by growth because of the overall look but I assume soft means they have finished growing and are starting to break down or something?

Yes, the stipe itself will start to get softer. It'll be almost like a marshmallow.

What others have said.
When the most mature fruits start to feel soft to the touch is when I harvest. Wait any longer than a day or 2 they will begin to decay.
Edit: Harvesting 1 at a time or the whole tub is up to you. As you grow more you will likely start harvesting a tub all at once since it is a pain in the ass to monitor each fruits maturity level

haha yeah if you´re anything like me you´re trying to just save as much time as you can and mow em all down...
i have heard the same thing pretty much everywhere ive been, and ive also heard that picking individual fruits can affect the mycelial mat by damaging it but you're only doing it slightly, so the effect is probably negligible.
