white fuzz on my stems?
    #5584671 - 05/03/06 07:24 AM (17 years, 8 months ago)

This is my first grow and I seem to have a white fuzz growing on the stems of my mushrooms. I'm not sure what it is. It just appeared there sometime in the last 10 hours or so. I birthed the cakes 3 days ago, and all seemed fine until this morning when I checked on them. Here's some pics:





this white fuzz doesn't look good. anyone know what it is or what I can do about it?

Thanks

Are you sure that's normal? Is it going to go away? Are they going to be like that when I pick them?

That is a relief though. I thought all the time I had put into growing these had just gone to waste in one night.

Thanks

it will dry out. it contains psilocybin just like the rest of the mushroom so it is edible.
