I just birthed a large coonised woodchip "sandcastle" that was sitting in a large flowerpot. The mycelium that was in contact with the pot sides was covered in a pale yellow transparent jelly like substance. I'm assuming that's just reishi metabolites?

I buried a colonized sawdust block in coverd it with some fresh sawdust. Here is what I found 2 months later:

Could it be reishi primordia?

I wonder when it?s going to stop growing down the side of the jar....

the fan like growth was from when the mycelium started to grow out over the surface of the plastic bag that was covering the jar.
The jar has been in a large rubbermaid terrarium for the last week.
Are these weird growths primordia? I don?t _think_ they are, but what do I know?

I think they are primordia, but they probably had to much humidity and CO2 at that stage.
So, how is it going now? Do you have any antlers forming?

no antlers to speak of, I think I maybe upped the air exchange/lowered the CO2 too early. I do have what looks like some sort of primordia thang going on though...
pics tomorrow, I'm off to bed now

urg, leave me alone, I'm not a well man

also, my flash card reader isn't working

looking at the jar 2 days later, it looks like I've got 3 of those funky stripy antlers growing

, but for some reason, rather than sticking out like antlers should, they're slowly creeping down the side of the jar....
Looks a bit sinister if you ask me.

Wow. They look tired! The gravity is too high.

They will make nice tea anyway.

cool, well done

/me has a jealous sulk

I reckon I'm going to have to up the fresh air exchanges a lot if I ever want to achieve anything like that. Unless it's too late?
Nah.

It's a lot easier to cultivate it outdoors.
To make you feel better - most of my indoor sawdust jars became contaminated and I wish the rest looked like yours.

>It's a lot easier to cultivate it outdoors.

really? do you think it would grow outdoors in Scotland? I imagine the temp and rH would be too low, or would that just make it grow slower, rather than not at all?

I don't know. I already found a wild reishi in my area which is known as very dry during the summer.
Maybe it wouldn't survive the winter in Scotland but I made that outdoor patch in the spring and I have mushrooms growing now, so you could try.

Here are some antlers that grew from a jar of wood dowels that I was too lazy to use on logs outside:

And a polypropylene bag with Tyvek filter that was opened after the sawdust was colonized. The surface is turning from pure white to reddish brown:

I will stack several bags and try to grow conks this time.
