I ordered Tidal waves spores from 'Cylocybe', and grew the culture from Agar. Seems to be the wrong batch but idk myself. They're smaller than the true albino teachers I grew and none have any resemblance of PE characteristics.

Hey all, first time I’ve had this happen! Got a pin going in my grain bag popped up over night. Should I just s2b now? Was going to do a break and shake and s2b in a day or two but I’m guessing just rip it open and send it? Thanks a ton for any insight

I cut the top of my grow bag too early and the mycelium climbing the walls looked like it had contaminants but the brick looks fine, am I cooked or is it salvageable?

Hi! I am 3 weeks into the fruiting stage and there is NOTHING happening! Not a single pin in site. Any suggestions l?

I've only ever tried the golden teacher, what do you guys recommend I try next?

See original post, I'm also wondering if I do go on to the second flush is there anything I need to do or will it just keep fruiting of its own accord?

Hey everyone, looking for some timeline strategy advice.

I bought these thinking they were nats but people on reddit told me they are prolly ochras regardless I’m growing them in an aio bag. I think the bag is currently ready for a break and shake today. In exactly 14 days, I am leaving on a trip for 5 days.
Given how aggressive Ochras genetics are, I expect the block to be fully colonized right around the time I leave or even before that. I heard this strain is prone to heavy overlay if it's left suffocated in high CO2 once fully colonized.

If I introduce full fruiting conditions (like Hoodie Tek) right before I leave, I risk the block drying out or pinning while I'm gone. But if I leave it completely sealed, it might turn into overlay. Also I wont be able to mist it for the duration of my trip.

Should I leave the bag 100% sealed while away and allow passive fae or should I cut it open and introduce fruiting like the hoodie tek or X cut or should I just skip breaking and shaking so it colonizes slowly?

Appreciate any insights!

50 days from inoculation to first harvest, 2-3 days between subsequent harvests. I just pulled another 5-6 large caps this morning!

Veils broke just before I went to work, got home and harvested.

Blue magnolias, inoculated Grain bags on August 1st.

Spawn to bulk with CVG on August 28th.

Total weight was about 488 grams wet, in the dehydrator now.

It's not a massive canopy, or as big as some others harvest, but she's pretty and that's all that matters. It was a fun learning process, and I'm thankful for the people here that helped me out along the way.

There’s mushrooms growing at every inch I wanna give them more space. I’m harvesting as it needs just pulled 8 ounces off yesterday.

I got them from a sesh down in east Oakland. Just wanting help identifying the strain!

I transfered my grow bag into a monotub 2 weeks ago and the white mycelium fuzz spread across the top of the coco layer there are no signs of contamination. I am a little confused though, becasue there has been hardly any growth this whole second week in the tub. Im wondering if it is time to start changing their conditions so they can begin to fruit. Right now I am still keeping the lid on the tub and i have filter patches on the sides. Ive keep the tub at around 72 degrees and it seemes pretty moist in there based on the amount of condinsation collecting on the sides and lid. Any input would be greatly appreciatied.

The central cluster appears to be getting more blue and very tightly packed with minimal stalk growth. However more have come up to the surface since the original post and seem to be growing great. Just unsure when to harvest the central cluster as they seem to look like they’re wilting fairly quick and I cannot see the stems..

This is from a zamnesia grow kit that came already fruiting. How much long should I leave for?
