So would a 48 hour dehydrator not work for the chonkers?  Or is it detrimental for any reason?


Whether or not it "works" depends on a variety of factors. Heat, airflow, density, fruit size...

If you want to keep an ugly blob whole for some reason by all means chuck it in your dehydrator and check on it periodically...

But why would you waste the time and energy?

Does my tub look okay? I feel like my other ones have stalled out. If this one doesn't fruit I'll cry myself to sleep.

Spawned 11 days ago in an ezdial tub. The tub is inside my tent, usually hangs out around 72°F and 55-60% RH.



I don't see any water droplets but it looks fine, give it a few more days sometimes I don't get the super sexy beads until it's a bit more colonized.

Any advice when to harvest these? I would like to leave some for prints.
When harvesting, would you pluck all of them at once? Is it better to keep the lid on or take it off?

You're far from harvesting, wait for them to open and mature properly.

I have jars that have the cleanest mycelial advances throughout them. Everything looks happy but there are no pins in the sides or tops. The jar that I put in a fahtster bag with holes that had some mycelial matte has new fresh cotton growing from the slightly matte surface. It looks clean and whispy. I'm guessing this is CO2 abundance but the fact that this did not happen until after I put it in a more restricted airspace makes me question if this is indeed ideal.

At what point should I consider scratching a surface or double casing? Would you be questioning the cleanliness of a casing if mycelium successfully colonized 80% or 100%? I have jars that range from 70% to 95% casing colonization. Or would you be questioning the mycelium being nonfruiting?

I will be cloning some fruit into new jars, but I already have 12 jars that need to be fruited. I am wondering if I should be casing these as I had already done (still no fruits), or if maybe I need to be doing a steam cycle on my fertilized moisture control soil (good amount of peat and verm, I pick out most of the sticks and mulch). I'm pretty sure even if I steam cycled there would be enough microbes to recover from small mulch pieces. Just thought this may give more success maybe?

This should be posted in your own thread, you've been asked to not post these long winded posts in here.

Multiple questions, statements, etc.

Just stick all your posts into a single thread, we've given this same advise to many users through the years.

I was trying to ask a quick question but provided some background info so that I didn't get answers that didn't apply to my grow. I was going to update that thread I made when something new happened, but nothing new has happened.

I know usually people say don't sterilize casing material, but how the mycelium responded and ingredients of the material I thought may change that. And then whether the conditions I listed made it sound like it needed to be recased or just sterilized before I applied it?

I guess I'm asking if does it sound like my casing material is ok if it's growing through most of it? Or can invisible contamination keep fruits from appearing?

Really just a casing question about if things sound ok and I just need to wait longer. I was hoping someone who experienced a similar situation would be able to clear that up for me.

This is technically only my 2nd real grow attempt, jars have been stagnating for awhile. I just thought someone with multiple grows may know what was up with my casing. I don't think my question is super complex but maybe it belongs in advanced mycology section or something. That subforum only has like 4 people viewing it at one time though. I've searched and searched with my conditions, closest thread I found was 22 years ago and the guy never came back and updated anything.

Tulted, you've just been given a reasonable pointer. Put it in your own thread, no, certainly not in advanced. And if you just do whatever, yes, it's difficult for the tek-following crowd to help you.

Don't sterilize casings. Don't use whatever as casing. Read up on how succesful growers prepare casings, literally follow in their footsteps. Once you've got enough mushrooms to last you years and understand the process, you can start fiddling around.

I tend to do 24 hour increment checks cause of my 6 day work weeks.  So if it’s not dry in 24 hours I don’t care/have time to check again until the next 24 mark and I assume at that point it’s cracker. I do check a big one to confirm.

As far as the works part , I mean in regards to potency loss or anything. I haven’t seen anything that suggest dehydrating for 48 would cause any issues but also figured I would ask to double check so I’m not losing out on potency  Then it definetly becomes a waste of time.

You can dehydrate for longer than 48hrs without an issue.

Some users here have forgotten they dehydrators on and come back a week later.

youre probably just going to do whatever you feel like no matter what anyone tells you but.

why are you "casing" pf cakes?  you just birth them and fruit them in a water tub.  nobody can help you if you just march to your own drum constantly and refuse to do anything anyone says. 

i suppose this is pan cincts still..  anyway man, do as derrayled said and post in your own thread and POST pictures and well see what we can do .

Also to add to some of the above questions on dehydration - there's no concern about potential potency loss when cutting up chonkers/blobs before they go into the dehydrator?

My only thought is that cutting them opens more surface area to the air but I guess that would be negligible as long as they go right into the dehydrator after cutting.

potency loss really isnt a concern with dehydration.  the quicker you can get it done the better which is why we cut big ones up.

oxydation is the real enemy.  especially once theyre dry.  letting moisture back into them will ruim them quickly. 

get em dry, keep em dry.  use desiccant.  keep them in sealed jars.
