Nothing super scientific, but I find it useful to keep notes on my grows. I also like to make sub-par sketches and spore prints! Do you guys keep grow journals or records?
Right on! And likewise. It's great to see more activity in these communities :)
Wow very nice!! I hope they pop up a nice canopy for you 8) Are you doing about 1:1 substrate:spawn ratio?
Ah I'm bummed I didn't save a picture to show you, but I've had the exact same thing happen to me. I was thinking that there was a seed in my coco coir, but looking back I'm not sure if that's very probable. Wherever it came from, it ended up dying off well before fruiting and the tub went on to live a long happy life with many flushes :) Keep us posted for sure!
The duck:
But looking at the duck’s pupils, I think he’s beat me to the fruits
Yep just .5! :) I’ve found it takes very little, just make sure your syringes are shaken up very well so you get enough of the good stuff in there.
It sounds like you have a busy day tomorrow, keep us updated!
Thanks for the report! I’ve always heard store brand had less water content, and I always favored signature select from Albertsons even to UB. But with like .5cc either mss or lc. Bummer about the Kroger!
That’s so cool, thanks for commenting! While I knew the variety didn’t necessarily predict the outcome of the mycelium, I didn’t know why.
Both are cubensis, different varieties. (Taman Negara on left, B+ on right)
Dude I felt totally bamboozled when c/shrooms went missing.. if you haven't yet, check out the new community here 8)
Look up huitlacoche :) Some consider it a delicacy
Now you have me wondering if one could cultivate Huitlacoche..
I don’t know what’s up with these guys! They came from a squatted Purple Mystic I cloned to agar. They only grow around the edges of the tub, very slowly. When they get much bigger than this, they fuzz over big time and start to get soft. They’re barely bigger than your average aborts. Weird little guys! Not sure if I’ll be pursuing these genetics further haha
Nice, that seems like a good sweet spot with the ratio. I do somewhere between 1:1 and 1:2 myself, (usually closer to 1:1) but sometimes I wonder if that's a bit much. I've found compacting/compressing everything will stop side pins through the 1st flush, but my cakes always shrink up after 1F and I inevitably get the side pins then haha.
Also I hadn't realized you're the same dude with the sprouts in your tub!! Is this the one they popped up in?
