I think i see a little bit of green in there, may just be the photo, but........
I always get the green with 50/50 and gypsum,
never tired it with oyster shell also, i guess that makes all the difference.

The green is the iridescence from the oyster shell.

Pretty cool, that is how my K. samui mycelium looks as well...without the green though...crossing fingers...neat to see that the strains in general produce, the same kind of mycelium types. What I mean is, each strain has it?s own mycelium finger print...errr...maybe I am on just on crack...but I swear it is true.

Here are pics of my freshly sterilised casing layer. If you would increase saturation on these pics I would bet money that it would show the same iridescence.

Here are my most recent Koh Samui casing pics from 1/12 and 1/13. I have two trays, one I labled "A", the other "B". A was place in the fruiting chamber 4? days ago, b tray is still in incubator pending further colonisation.


Tray A is starting to show hyphael knot formation.

1/13





B tray is almost ready to be placed in the fruiting chamber, probably late tomorrow.

These are pics from the "B" tray. I have left this out at room temp (aprox 68-70 deg. F) for nearly two days. I placed this in my chamber (82 deg. F) to hopefully start some fruiting.

I wouldn?t worry about it being uneven. Sometimes an uneven surface is good. It provides microclimates which the mycelium can select for optimal temp/humidity. I?m sure if all goes well you will see good results.

Joshua

I did some reading in The Mushroom Cultivator and came across the casing section. It basically said I was wrong w/ my previous statement.

You should attempt to create an even substrate and casing layer.

Here are the pins 24 hrs later.

Casing "A"








Casing "B"







As you can see I have plenty of pins comming up. I have a couple of questions.

1) Is it possible to get all of the pins I see to develop into fruits? no How do I get the highest number of pins to develop into fruits? Correct moisture and temperature.

2) Are some of these pins going to remain dormant until the next flush? yes, pins forming at the initial flush sustain fruits for both the first and second flushes.

I could use advise on how to successfuly develop these pins to fruits with the highest yeild.

I just got done harvesting my first flush from casing "A". I thought the KS would be larger. I remember seeing one of RycheHawks pictures and them being huge. I searched for some pics here on the Shroomery and found that small fruits were to be expected. This flush is actualy a pretty decent flush.

Here they are:

Casing "A" was harvested yesterday, casing "B" is starting to fruit. Following are pics from both the remnants of casing "A" and the small fruits developing on casing "B".

abhorts on casing "A"




Casing "B"






As usual I could use some advise/help. My questions posted here from a couple days ago still remain unanswered.

Here?s my new question:

My casing "A" is full of water logged abhorts, I am concerned that they will act as a wick for contams. I am thinking of scratching or removing the top layer. I really don?t know what the best method would be, do you?

Pick all of the aborts with clean hands and patch the bold places and the side of the try where the casing polled away.

I wouldn?t listen to Anno, whose mushrooms according to photographic evidence only grow 4-6 feet tall. Clearly has no knowledge on the subject:) Gosh Anno, your pictures get me buzzed....

Anyway, yeah Koh Samui?s are small and twisted but give a good trip, especially in nature (like most shrooms I guess). Eat what you think you wanted, and then two more and you will get good visuals. Eatem fresh too, with limeade concentrate and one of those fruit wines like wild vines or arbor mist all blended up. Brings back memories.... my friends memories of course

Is your entire house/apartment filled with fruiting chambers, incubation rooms, etc? you post more pics of different experiments and fruiting trays that you must be knee deep in fungi. I hope I get a digital camera soon so I can post pix for everyone. Until then keep them coming because they all look great.
