Ah great question, and I'll use different language in the future

Sibling would be better. Things that are the same:
Same LC, same timelines for inoculation and spawn to bulk, tubs set up the same way, same grain, substrate.

Different: two different jars of grain. Different timelines to in tub colonization and pinning. Im using a small closet for temp regulation with a temperature controlled space heater, they've been in different locations in the closet, but I try to rotate them around

Same LC is interesting. Something slowed it down. I’d say wait it out though, unless you need it out of there.

Not sure what's up with that tub, but it looks like it's struggling. Looks very wet in there. I would not want it so wet.

Do the fruits seem like they're deteriorating? Nothing looks super happy, but I'm also not seeing obvious aborts.

Have you checked the sides and bottoms for contam?

Try to keep it a little less saturated. Sparkling, not puddled. If nothing improves, and there's no obvious contam, then I would punish it and psuedocase and hope for the best. Idk, sometimes they just flop.

Is it possible that's slime mold? The one time I've seen it in person, and the few pics I've seen of slime mold contaminated tubs, it's been growing up the sides of the tub too, so that's maybe evidence against it here. But that tub sure looks weird. Like whatever is growing on top is growing all over the pins, which in my (still noob) experience isn't typical on a healthy substrate.

one of them has a split top, they all seem to be on the sad end of things, but i havent poked them to see if they are smushy, will check when i get back from work.

it LOOKS super dry, but then also has those odd little puddles. ill get more FAE and less misting going. ive been giving it a lil extra in the hopes that the fruit would use it up.

checking for contam ALLL the time, i dont see anything, no side pins, no bottom pins.

Pretty cool that you're getting all this experience on your first run. I feel like you've observed and learned a lot already.

It could be fighting some sort of infection that isn't visible, except in the lackluster performance. Idk bud but best of luck and enjoy the ride.

In my single experience with slime mold, it was bright yellow, very fast and I could see the myc disappear wherever it arrived.

I threw some Subtropicales hats on tinfoil to print them but forgot about them for around 3 days. Can I still dehydrate the hats and store them or should I toss them? Feels like a waste of crazy good mushrooms so I'd prefer not to but I definitely don't want to get sick while being smashed on subtrops :lol:


You’re good bro. Chow down! Or dehydrate and chow down!

Edit: unless you see visible signs of mold.


Alright thanks man! How about a slight fluffiness? I think it's just Semperviva mycelium trying to reach out for nutrition since they're cut off from the sub and stalks but I'll rather be safe than sorry:lol:


Did you happen to take a pic you can post? I don’t think fluffiness can be mold, but without a pic none of us will know. I don’t think caps would go moldy left out. They would be more apt to start to dehydrate especially in a drier winter environment inside a house. I’ve never had any go moly on me ever, just shrivel up and start to dry out.

I’m about to dehydrate some fruits. After what’s the ideal storage method? In the past I used mason jars.

Is this ok still? And should I add desiccant packs?

I was wondering, is this normal or would it be wise to transfer? I wonder if it got like that because the agar thins out on that side.


Yeah I would take a transfer around 10 o'clock.


Thanks man. I should note it's ochra mycelium. That certainly looks like aggressive genes at 10 o clock!

Just harvested this tub and noticed the greenish blue color on the surface?  Am I cooked? Trich? Bruising maybe?

I THINK it’s bruising from best I can tell. Seems like it’s areas you plucked around.

Have another project going? I would chuck it if you do but could keep an eye on it for a day or two. Will be obvious if it’s trick. But trick can be a nasty thing to let stay on for future endeavors.

No, you shouldn't worry about that. Trichoderma is pretty much everywhere. Your ASL would have to be very high to notice thd difference.
Also it really doesn't look like trich. Trichoderma (and friends) aren't just discoloration, they have really different mycelium. A good trich infestation shows itself once thd myc starts melting away in places and this very off scent comes out of your FC.

Sounds like moisture got in there ? I keep mine in multiple zip lock layers and avoid scooping with a wet scooper . I know my grannie used to use a little piece of smooth clay pottery in the brown sugar bin to prevent caking

I keep mine in a mason jar with the original two piece lid, with a desiccant pack just in case. If you have a vacuum sealer attachment for mason jars, removing most of the air will probably be even more effective than a desiccant pack. But it's most important to just keep it in a sealed non-porous container (glass and metal sealing lid).

I bought way too much this time, so the rest remains in its original bag, which I added a couple desiccant packs to and impulse sealed. That seems to be holding up fine, though it's only been a few months. I'm thinking about putting the rest in jars just in case - I have this weird thing about jars being precious, but I always have a bunch I'm not currently using :facepalm:
