Quick picture before I cut these down, Sadly they have opened up fully and dropped spores while I slept.

Meh, don´t be sad :wink:
They are very beauty and spores don´t harm.

When it comes to harvesting the clusters am I best cutting at the base or trying to twist and pull the cluster together?




I usually start to pick from the outer of the cluster.
Depends on how strong they´re connected.
Personal preference.
Wanna harvest fast?
Use a katana :grin:

Spores are no big deal. The sooner you cut em down the sooner you get your second flush! Great job man! Looks like you’re going to have  A decent amount for your first haul!

Well that's great news ofc I'm still plundering through old outdated info and I had the assumption I might not get more flushes if they drop spores. Im super happy with the first haul on this little tub I'm actually pretty shocked how many mushrooms matured.

Thanks for stopping in everyone its been a fun journey learning :mushroom2:

They just make the fruit look less desirable. If I’m growing to share, which I typically do I try to harvest strains that drop spores right before the veil breaks. They keep their shape really well in the dehydrator when they don’t open. The caps don’t get brittle and break up.

Well I've picked them all and they drying as we speak. 350grams wet at the moment, Should I soak the cake overnight in cold water or should I give the tub a good mist for the next run then soak for the 3rd? These are all for me but for the big 26L tubs I'll try and pull them before they open :grin:

That’s depends on how the sub looks and feels. If it’s still hydrated It will just keep going. If it’s a little dry I would just dump some water down the sides. Start with quart.  Let it soak and then dump out any excess water if there is any. I used to dunk them overnight but it’s not really needed and a messy pain in the ass.

This is one of the tubs that I started the same day as your tubs. It was one of the first tubs that I really compressed the shit out of. It was about a week slower than the other I did with less compression

I know its sad how a minority control our lives in so many ways. Luckily as this is all personal I'm going to be stocked up for a year or two atleast. Ill have to learn how to clean up spores on agar for the future as I know spores are legal here just not live cultures etc. The PE tub looks like its struggling but I did notice the surface was pretty dry so I've been misting it once a day for the past few days and it does look like its picking up pace now with a much stronger shroom smell and more what looks like primordia forming. From the info I got on the PE culture its a fast colonizer with nice fruits but it struggles in even close to perfect conditions and my conditions have been all over so I've done it no favours. I still have hope for the PE tub but next time I'll definitely run the PE in the smaller tubs so I can control the environment much easier.

Yeah the PE I have doesn’t have any of the issues we hear about with PE’s doing weird shit or being temperamental. Either that or I’m an expert cultivator! 😂

Quick update

Small funky B+ tub has recovered from harvest and is growing lots of fresh mycelium.

26L PE tub finally some pins poking their way up :grin:


26L B+ tub really picking up growth now getting close!

Quick update B+ tubs have done their 2nd flush and the 26L PE tub is still struggling to fruit but I've noticed it was really dry and I'm having to mist it 3times a day even with 1hole for FAE. It does look like its starting to knot up again so hopefully it pulls through. Next time ill run the PE in a small tub so I can control the moisture easier as its in the same conditions as the B+ but needs more water it seems. 2nd flushes not as many mushrooms but they are 3 times bigger so I'm not complaining :grin:

Iv’e heard the PE can be a pain in the butt. Back in the day I started a strain that was labeled “Jamaican”. Man were they slow and just a pain in the ass. Little did I know they were a pan strain from Jamaica and I was trying to grow them like cubes. Ended up working out and they were super potent but fuck they were slow! If they are knotting then you are close, 10 days or less I would say! Do a side water now that they are knotting. Just dump like a half quart to a quart down the sides instead of misting. It’s better for the fruits and will get you the desired surface condition better than misting.

Rodger that buddy. The knots are appearing all over now I think im getting somewhere with the PE tub finally, I didn't notice my light was exhausting towards the PE tub for the past 2weeks so that's why its been drying out much faster.
