Don’t worry about things like “fuzzy feet.” That’s not fuzzy feet. Plenty of varieties just get wooly at the base. Has nothing to do with health. Fuzzy feet is a condition resulting from too little oxygen, and the mushroom grows extra surface area to try and get more. You’ll know it when you see it, because it looks kinda wacky.

Even still that wouldn’t make your mushrooms inedible or bad.

Here’s what you want to not see:




Thanks.
They are not mushy or soft if that's what you mean, so I guess this is a good sign.

When should I pick those?
They are PE and there is no veil, so I am not sure what the rule is

Wait until they get a little soft to the touch. If they’re very firm they still have more to give

My first swab attemp on agar produced nothing but bacteria. You could see spores left behind but they would not germinate.

I had to put my swab pieces in BRF pucks.

Search pristine brf pucks


I've had mixed success with swabs. I feel like the newer the better when it comes to swabs due to moisture loss as well as the cotton trapping more than just the desired spores. I recently saw a tek that uses a syringe and rubber band to force hydrate. If you rip up your spore swab and make a spore slurry you could try a force-hydration. That's my 2 cents at least

Also jamming a floret in to the agar helps greatly.

Fuzzy feet can be low FAE (fresh air exchange, for new members), but can also also be genetic. "Wooly at the base" is also fuzzy feet.

Since fuzzy feet are mycelium, and mycelium has more Beta Carbolines (natural MAOI) than the shroom itself, it's possible that eating a shroom with fuzzy feet may feel (slightly) stronger and last longer.  I always keep the fuzz on and eat the shroom fuzzy feet.

Like "Eat the worm!" but real. 

I think we see the low FAE evidence a lot in plins, they can be very long. Shrooms use more oxygen than mycelium, it's looking for more air, if the plate is well sealed. (just a theory, no proof)

The plin "thinks" it's in the forest growing under leaves, it's trying to find air. Same with shrooms that are not normally tall growing tall and thin. Growing up high to try to find more air.

Pic tax: some fuzzy feet!

I've been spawning to bulk (cubensis) and working in front if an FFU with the AC on with no problems whatsoever. Pretty soon I will be growing pan cyan (TTBVI) for the first time and I am wondering if I can get away with spawning to bulk pans with the AC on. When I S2B I make sure it's in front of the FFU where the AC doesn't hit that area. It is hot af out here especially in that room and I have hyperhidrosis. I want to enjoy. Lol

You don't need to be in front of the FFU or turn off the AC.
S2B is done in open-air; there will be all kinds of aerial spores falling in your coir... the principle is: if the grain is fully colonized and the mycelium culture axenic it will outnumber and overcome other organisms that will be under-grown and, therefor, not so well established.
Particularly TTBVI that will eat your coir and poop in 3 days :lol:
Enjoy the breeze :thumbup:

Ahh ok thank you. I swear I read a people saying you need to turn off the AC with pans especially since we're using poop. Glad to hear

Do these plates look ok.    From the underside im Seeing kind of yellow tint making a circle in the center of the cultures.  I can't tell if this is contamination or if it's just the way it looks because of the color of the aagar. I've taken pics of both the top and undersides backlight and no backlight.

The first 4 pics are of one plate.
And the next 4 are of another.

In person, the pink tint is very obvious, but it's only on this one grain.

Thoughts? Is this early signs of contam?

1lb purchased, pre-sterilized rye grain spawn.
Spore syringe to grain. I went into this knowing there are better ways.
