![]() The below visual guide is designed for novice and inexperienced mushroom cultivators. For some, it's easier and more comforting to know they are(or aren't) on the right path by visually making a comparison with an experienced growers cultures. That's what this guide is for, visual comparison. Please feel free to thank and rate any of the contributors. ![]() What It Shouldn't Look Like <-Click Genetic Mutations Section <-Click General Cultivation Information & FAQ <-Click Edible, Medicinal, and Novelty Fungi <-Click Supplies and Materials <-Click Tips and Tricks <-Click ![]() 1) Mycelium 2) Hyphal Knots & Primordia 3) Pins 4) When to Harvest 5) Mature Mushrooms 6) Spore Prints 7) Mycelium on Agar 8) Panaeolus cyanescens Section 9) How it Shouldn't Look 10) Poor Fruiting Conditions ![]() Cubensis mycelium just starting to colonize grain spawn jars - Tmethyl Typical colonization patterns of a multispore inoculation in a BRF mixture - Tmethyl Cubensis mycelium, the definition of rhizomorphic colonization, 1/2 pint BRF cake (Brown Rice Flower) - Revolutionctm Cubensis mycelium CLOSE-UP (macro), colonizing multiple substrates - Tmethyl Mycelium breaking the surface of the substrate, in a monotub - Tmethyl Super macro shots of Mycelium on grain spawn - Timehole Newly germinated mycelium on a BRF(PF tek) jar, and newly germinated mycelium on rye spawn jar (This is what it should look like 5-10 days after spore inoculation, but in rare cases can take up to 2-3 weeks to see growth) - Rohr Rhizomorphic growth on WBS (Wild Bird Seed) - FrankHorrigan Two jars on the left were at 30% colonization when the three jars on the right are at 70%.
