Harvesting, Dunking and Flushes
    #8686501 - 07/26/08 11:25 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

I have four OttO Buckets

So far, since been cased, the buckets are showing a very even pinset, with the edges pinning slightly more than the middle. There are still pins everywhere but I can tell the ones on the edges will grow first.

How do I go about dunking the bucket?

When I pick my mushrooms I cut them with scissors at the base, but usually there are large clumps of the base still in the bucket. When dunking should I remove this stuff which kind of causes a crater in the casing?

Alright, you see I did that with the small casing (colonised much faster). Filled my PC up with water and stuck it in there, it was very buoyant and I had trouble keeping it down and I'm sure some myc was damaged during the process. By this I can guess how buoyant and difficult a big bucket would be. I am just looking for a good method to dunk with minimal handling :wink:



Thanks for 'trying' anyway.

Don't cut your mushrooms, twist them at the base to pull them out.

To dunk, fill it with enough water to cover the sub, then put some kind of weight down upon it to keep it submerged. If any mycelium is damaged it will soon recover, so don't worry about it too much.
