Harvesting Related Questions
    #5331652 - 02/23/06 01:05 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

Hi!
I have a couple of questions related to harvesting.
When the veil tears, should I harvest them, even if they're short or small? What happens if you don't?
I read that seeing a greenish tint is a way to identify aborts. I've seen a greenish tint on more mature shrooms where they "look a little green around the gills". What is this indicitive of?
Also, a lot of my shrooms look kinda deformed, and they're mostly short and fat. Is this anything to worry about? What might cause this?
Thanks again for all your help!

Hey!
Thanks for responding! What I'm talking about isn't bruising, but a greenish tint around the edge of the caps.
I haven't used any petroleum products, although the only Lysol I could find had perfume in it (what happened to good ol' Lysol in the gold can?), which I used to wipe down the lid of the chamber once. Otherwise, it hasn't been near the mushies. Is this perfumey Lysol petroleum based?
As far as substrate depth, I'm using half-pint cakes. But I think they came out kinda hard, and it took a long time to colonize the bottoms for this reason. I wonder if maybe the mycelium has a hard time colonizing the inside of these cakes? PF Tek / B+, btw.

you know a picture is worth a thousand words!

I've had a number of mushrooms turn blue around the cap especially when the veil tears.

If you used any Lysol, it contained petroleum distillates. Stick with a diluted (1:10) bleach/H2O solution. Cheaper, works great, and you don't have to worry about deformities, though I don't think the Lysol was your problem. Probably lack of FAE.

Yes they have aborted the building. Sometimes the whole cap turns bluish black but sometimes only the edges of the cap turn blue or kind of a green color. If left alone the whole cap will blue.
