Damn my dehydrator smells like fire. New one doesn’t come in til Friday. How can I store my fruits until then? It’s crazy humid nowadays


If they sit for extended periods unused, I've had them give off the burning dust smell that central air heaters sometimes do when first being fired up for the winter.  If it smells like burning wire or plastic though it's time to retire it.

Food storage containers work too. Just line with a paper towel and leave the lid unsealed. Should keep in the fridge for days (I've pushed it to a week but I'm sure that wasn't optimal).


Harvested like 55g wet, refrigerated in unlatched tupperware lined with napkin, ate my fair share of aborts, moved the whole bag into a monotub, and cloned the cutest one onto some agar. I appreciate all the help from everyone over the past few days! Hopefully soon I have help to offer others and I can migrate away from this thread :dancingshroom:

I love getting huge cakes out of the dehydrator :rofl:

5 gal is way cheaper but I’m definitely partial to snipping the rack out of some trays to make spacers, let my nesco fit 3-4 pounds fresh per run without buying extra trays

They say once fully colonized they aren't as prone to contamination, but phones are pretty dirty.. No choice but to wait it out and see what happens. I'm also a beginner and I'd be pretty worried if that happened to me tbh. But I think you're good though. Beginners like me often worry too much lol

This jar ended up getting contaminated. But I was just wondering if these grains look okay or if they are too dry?

You'll get a flush at least. Was it MS? Harder to get full canopies from that.

The less colonized area does make me think this will mold after a first flush so keep your eyes out.

Nice pics. That mycelium wall (ECM) is pretty amazing to see. Not sure what’s in the lower left but your army has successfully blocked it for now

I’d say not bad. And, if you have any concerns just dehydrate the fruits. Nice work as always, ArkaNaut

Thank you all!

This was an LC from a vendor.  It has been difficult to work with.  Slow colonization, and most of the grain jars ended up looking baccy so they're all top fruited.  I took a chance on this one putting it in a shoebox, and the struggle shows.  The topped jars look OK, getting some knots.  I'll propogate this line via cloning and hopefully make my way towards a strain with better characteristics.  If it ends up having strong potency it may be worth attempting some crosses. 

I have some plates of this avery that are over a month old which have made gangly pins.  Intend to transfer them to agar someday - also have an avery pin on grain that's slowly colonizing.

I had the same feeling about that left side area - probably contam, but hasn't greened out or gotten excessively fluffy, so OK to let it ride for now.  I wonder if that's why the fruits are so squat.  That "big" one looks like the veil is about to break, but the cap is longer than the stem!


Several top fruited jars looking like this.

Will a cake continue to develop pins until it successfully grows mushrooms?

I think I fucked up a grow, didn't realize it was pinning on the bottom, and it looks like a few of them aborted. There's hardly ANY pins, maybe 4 or 5 of the tiniest little guys, and then there's some white-specks of primordia in various spots around the cake still. I flipped the cake over, so the bottom, with all the primordia and a couple of tiny pins is now on the top.

If it tries to pin once and the conditions aren't right, will it just keep trying until the right conditions are met, or if it tries and aborts is it fucked and won't grow anything further?

AKA: Is this cake fucked or will it still pin? Myc is ripped cause it had stuck to the stand the cake was sitting on and when I removed it to flip the cake over some pulled off :frown:

I did not know the mycelium would detect and then quarantine a contamination. That is so friggin cool!

Will mushrooms continue to pin until they properly grow? Or if it tries to pin once and fails, is the cake done with?

Re: Ask Quick Questions, Get Quick Answers [Re: chutney] * 1

If and when conditions are right, cakes will pin. It is really common to have a first flush of mutants, aborts or midgets, then strip them off and get a nicer looking second flush. Especially with PE varieties. But if conditions are not great it is often a race between the mushrooms and contamination.
