Should i take it out, and potency.
    #5497093 - 04/09/06 04:13 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Hey guys, I'm so fucking excited right now that my shroom cake is starting to pin, and is doing GREAT!! This is my first shroom grow and I can't tell you how happy I am. (I've never tripped before, and will be really happy that i get to trip on my own shrooms for the first time). The questions I had though is that:

1. How potent are homegrown shrooms compared to street ones?
2. My cake is starting to pin/develop a LOT. Tiny shrooms are appearing all over and actually some already have minicaps on them. The problem is that they are still inside the jar :frown:. The cake isn't 100% colonized, more like 93- 97% and i'm pretty positive they can't get contam because the very small areas that aren't colonized have small hairs on them, and they probably can stand an attack. Should i take it out because a lot of the shrooms are pushing on the plastic container, and i don't wanna stunt their growth.

Damn, my first grow. i'm really excited, and i don't wanna fuck it up. Thanks.

1. Mushrooms you get on the street are likely grown in bulk. This means the grower is probably using manure if he's smart. Or he is just using straw or rye, probably. Brown rice flour cakes IMO are less potent then manure grown. But underestimating them could be the stupidest thing you ever did LOL

2. I'm not really sure what you should do at this stage...If it was me. I'd probably just birth the cake and remove the uncolonized portions of the cake with a sterile blade. Next time don't let your jars get any light when colonizing and they wont pin.

don't take it out untill its 100%. you don't want any place where spores and land and get a foot hold on your cake. you don't really want you cake pinning in the jar but if its right close to 100% it won't be very long till it is 100% and you can birth the guy so no problems there.

as for street shrooms and home grown it really depends what the street ones are in your area. if they grow wild there its likely that the street ones are picked and so potency might be different if teh wild shrooms arn't cubes since you havn't done street ones though it doesn't really matter.

congrats on the grow.
