Spore-tacular Shenanigans

[Orb]

taking the bag out this AM it’s hard not to get a bit excited, they appear to be pumping along (sorry about shit pic - will remember to take pic BEFORE spraying inside of bag next time)



no obvious signs of mould elsewhere so

 

[Orb]

realised that if I’m further away from the bag, the condensation is a bit less of a visual hinderance and ya can get better impression of what’s going on

9 hours since last update, feeling good about how they’re shaping up

Loving your thread orb following along with interest, just wondering is there somewhere you can recommend I can read up on growing shrooms how it's all done and shit like that

I learnt from watching Philly Golden Teacher on you tube he has heaps of vids

Kicking along mate should be right for a couple freshies sat night.

Seen his vids, 90 second mycology is a good one too

Nice Orb, on their way!!

I have harvested mine. Resealed bag after in the hopes of a second flush.




No idea if that's a decent yield but I'll take it..

Justice would be you get double that Orb

I'll never do Blue Meanie's ever again. Last time i took them there was very little buzz from 'em, that resulted with me being poisoned for the best part of a week. Hasn't spooked me off mushies though, just the meanies.

Yeah hearing ya, each to their own but mushrooms scare the fuck outta me.

Despite as a kid doing “magic mushrooms” which were loaded with lsd

thanks mate, have a thing next week so we’ll be drying for another day (very soon)

result AM they look great!!

did you rehydrate the cake and if so, mind me asking how?

Cheers Orb

I had no idea what I was doing.. just opened up to harvest, sprayed everything a bit with water then re sealed with micropore (with some difficulty haha). I suspect there was a little bit of mould starting to grow on the surface of the cake so won't be surprised if it's all over from here. It's been a fun little adventure but jeez requires some serious patience..

 

[Orb]

things are progressing nicely as far as I can make out - no obvious signs of mould and at this rate I’m guessing harvest can’t be too many days away??

Very nice, I'm sure you've done your research on harvesting but you pick them just as the veil underneath the cap begins to split.

Yeah I dabbled with the 90 second rice bags it's about a 60/40 success rate 40 being the successful side. If you have a laminar flow hood you'd be right it's just cutting the corner off and adding the tape is where the procedure fails me. I suspect the mold spores get in then. I've moved onto small growbags that hold about 500ml of rice about the same as a jar so I don't have to clean jars out and it's easier to mix you don't have to bang shit out of and shake the jars you can just manipulate it through the bag

Yeah I did about 10 of them, had 1 get contaminated which wasn't bad at all but i transferred colonized agar into them instead of spore syringe because I only had spore swabs. That birdseed method in jars seems alright too. So many ways to skin a cat when it comes to growing mushies gotta love it

And they take up less real estate

 

[Orb]

holy fuck, just opened the box and I’m impressed with how these guys have just gone ape shit inside the bag overnight

veils still attached but at this rate can’t be too long now

Fk yea Orb shroomies a plenty

thanks LtG, I had mentioned to yer man sporespec that id put the entire 10cc syringe into this one bag and apparently I could have done with just 3cc so fingers crossed I get a couple of flushes too!
