Ive been through that thread a couple times. Ive smelled an almost tart smell a handful of times, but for the most part it's just earthy mushroom scent which I know isn't even a reliable indicator on it's own anyway.

No discoloration. A little bit of condensation, but no pooling, slime, creamy myc or difficulty breaking up.

Ill figure it out. Or I wont...idk. I've been pretty successful so far, and while that isn't the point, I'm not going to allow myself to feel like a failure over it either. 🤷‍♂️

I've had better luck spawning (slightly) bacterial  or just suspect, to shoe boxes.

VS.

Top fruiting non-sus.


I'm not a fan of the toss it if it's not 100% pretty pretty princess.
These things grow outside in SHIT.

It's up to the individual to decide when a spawn is past point of no return. Because we all know, they're gonna do whatever they want anyways.

At least we can guide and prepare them for the likelihood of sub-par harvest at best.

Setting aside the mush, the XP gained from the journey alone is worth the roll, no matter the outcome.

I took one of suspect PE jars and threw about 1.5in of coir on the top of the jar. That was on the 2nd, and it's done almost nothing. The jar still looks pretty damn good as far as I can tell, and if it wasn't for a history of poor performance, surely would have sent it. My best guess is theres been something riding along the whole time no matter how many transfers

+XP is insanely valuable. If I waited until I knew I had pristine spawn, I'd have gotten absolutely nothing done. And not at all tootin my own horn here, but I've been pretty happy with the majority of my boxes.

Which actually brings me to an unrelated question - would a cold snap cause caps to open prematurely? Somebody (not me) turned the heat off to do flow work and didnt turn it back on until the following day. It wasn't me of course, but it was 61 when I got home last night and today I've got what I thought were promising ochras now opening up a disappointing size. I have no idea if those two things are related though. Somebody (other than me) is in big trouble either way.

I've had a breaker blow and shroom room heater go off for the full night, It got down to high 50s by morning and they didn't open early.

I do know that early opening can mean something isn't perfect, including bacteria.

I've seen people think their stuff was great because it opened very quickly, they post a pic and it's very bacterial.

But a lot of organisms, including shrooms, will try to spread genetics (drop spores, in this case) if there is a chance they won't make it to normal full growth. "Life finds a way."

Plants do this too. I grew poppies this past year, the ones I started early ended up 5 feet tall with big pods. The ones I started late in the year bloomed when the plant was about a foot tall and the pods were tiny. Was a combo of long days, short nights. Maybe cooler nights were a trigger too.

Bacterial is always possible, as I'm sure we've thoroughly established tonight. 🤣

Hey guys, I have a quick question about this shoebox that's knotting and pinning somewhat nicely:



I would've posted it in the nice pinset thread... if it didn't pin on the bottom of the shoebox :facepalm:

In a bit of a panic I did this, where I just  carefully flipped the sub, but since the shoebox walls have a bit of an angle, now it's just hanging in the middle of the box like this:



So my question(s) is: Am I trolling by doing this? Won't the top (now bottom) of the sub pin more because of the higher humidity down there? Should I just take it out and throw the whole thing in a water tub so it can pin from wherever it wants? Thanks in advance!


That's what I do. I make a water tub.then  flip your shoe box over and place the cake on top of the now bottom of the shoe box.







A lot of mine end up like this. I've been running them this way for a while usually second flushing on because of bottom and side pins. it works well.

My cakes keep growing a few fruits at a time and I can't really harvest all at once, so instead I pick fresh fruits and store them in the fridge rolled in paper towels, inside a sealed jar in the vegetable tray and wait until I have at least about 100g to dry them in the dehydrator, usually 7 to 10 days.

Am I messing them up, potency wise? I don't want to let the dehydrator run for 12-24 hours for 3 or 4 fruits at a time. Should I switch to a paper bag instead of sealed jar? What's a noob to do?

You don't need to seal them, you shouldn't to be honest.

Other than that it's fine to store them for a few days before dehydrating.

when do you collect spores vs tissue culture for a clone? spores for more variety if you're pheno hunting, tissue if that's near exactly the pheno you want?

Hahah yeeeeaah, I guess I've smacked a few too hard and ended up with half a glass jar in my hand lol.

The slurry idea came from using millet vs rye and watching all those lil inoculation points explode. Jars of millet recover as fast as jars of rye and I wondered what if we make it even smaller?

For coir water content, just use a little less when making it.

I'd love a TC to tell me this is stupid and won't work... I don't need another project :p

How do I access the part of the site that gives descriptions about the various psychoactive species? Like info about strains/varieties.

I asked about PESH a couple months ago and Mr Piggy gave me a link to a write up about that variety. How do I access the master list? I can't seem to find it on the shroomery home page.

I swear I've stumbled across it a while before, but I could be mistaken. It wasn't a forum post. I thought I found it from one of the links from just shroomery.org but I can't seem to find it.

If I'm just tripping, then nbd. I'm going to try to find the reply from Pig and see if I can work backwards from there.

Edit: it was Cronicr not Mr Piggy. The link they gave was just one of Rose's journal entries. I must be misremembering.

Their journal is a great wealth of information, but isn't what I remembered seeing. In their rules section, they mention the cubensis list, which might be what I'm thinking about.

Link to Rose's journal for anyone curious:

Heat seems to be out this am. Is it ok if my temp dips to 55 for a little? If anything it will just temporarily slow things down yeh? Right now I am struggling with a sparse pin set on first flush and I’m also thinking it may mess with that…

What temperature do you normally keep them at? I've had temps drop when I used a space heater and a breaker popped. There were no real noticeable differences other than slowed growth.

Been keeping them around 68 - pretty concerned to only have this one mushroom still :/

Open to any suggestions on encouraging some
More pins. Heat is back on now!
