Mutation IMO.

Do you happen to spray your tub? Sometimes when you spray it a lot it encourages mycelium to grow on the caps and sometimes that also means it somehow turns retarded and starts growing solid. Otherwise it can just happen as a regular mutation.

Fungi mutate a lot. That's a big deal about them really.

Sometimes you get mutations because they came into contact with something they dislike. Petroleum products, some perfume, whatever may fly in there.

Same vendor. First grow of mine. It was before I bought my pc and made agar plates. I sinned, went spore syringe to grain. Later tested the other three syringes from the same purchase on LME plates and all three were clean. One was on CVG and the other was CVG w/ H-poo.


Are you growing cubes? Gypsum and hpoo are both redundant and detrimental to a cube grow. Gypsum doesn’t really have a place in fungal cultivation.

I have not sprayed that tub at all. I have been tempted, but taking the picture was the very first time I opened this tub, since I put the grains in it. I remember seeing a picture someone else posted the other day with an identical mutation, but that was before mine had become so prevalent. I cannot remember where I saw it. What do you think about if I clone one of them on agar to see what shows up on the plate?? That could tell me a lot right?

it might but probably not. If your goal is to find out what is growing on the mushrooms, agar wont really tell you. You have to clone from the inside anyway not the out, and there is all sorts of shit on the outside, putting it on agar will tell you you have put it on agar.

Yes, Cubes. It is my first try. I got a large flush on both tubs. I got the recipe watching a Willy Myco video, before I created a Shroomery account.

What are the deformities on the tops of the caps? I just had a completely different strain do the same thing.






I don't know either, but I saw it on cubes and pioppini back in the day. When I asked back then folks said it was possibly caused by bacteria, but no confirmed cause. I haven't seen it since those first few grows.


piopinni

Would 3 half pint PF cakes be enough to spawn to bulk in a shoebox. What is the best ratio for PF to bulk I have heard some crazy ratios here I was thinking 1:2 maybe 1:2.5 I have 6 cakes total plan to fruit 3 as cakes and 3 to bulk.

hey man i helped you in the other post. you might come up a little short for a 6qt with only 12oz cakecumber to slice up. You might be able to do a thin layer. i would just say its not worth it to spawn those to bulk just let them fruit man

Hello, I have a tub going of Bluey Vuitton I did s2b on 06/08. The Bluey mycelium is very thick and white. My jars looked great and I still have one I am going to top fruit because I had too much spawn.

Now I am seeing a whispy grey growth on top of my casing. I am just trying to identify it, see wheather or not it is salvageable, needs to be isolated, or buried out back. Thanks!

That is a piece of grain on the bottom left of the first photo and what the Bluey looks like.

It’s definitely doable with 1:2, I kept 2 cups of sub to the side for the casing layer.




But to be honest, if these are your only 6 you have available I would listen to fiddle. Once you break up those cakes theres a high chance of bacteria. Iv lost more then I would like to admit. But I had 20-30+ jars going so it wasn’t a big deal. “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket”
