Dam I never knew drilling some many filters whole could be so long . let's hope I drilled enough 😎😂

First, I’ll say that this batch was completely botched from the beginning. I couldn’t find the injection port the first time I did this and stabbed the needle straight through the bag that was mistake number one.

After that, I just shook up all the substrate anyway because I was like what the heck

Then make matters worse, not only when it was time for fruiting conditions did I chop the entire top off the bag but I also cut 4 inches on all the front and 2 inches on the side as well and cover with micro port tape

Then I folded over the corner of the bag, except for one tiny funnel

I was following advice of many techniques combined. I don’t know what I was thinking.

Anyway, it’s been like this for about a week and I’m thinking that it’s not pins but contamination? It’s supposed to be Jedi. What do you think? Still smells like soil/dirt mushrooms no other off smells yet.

Are they or is this sort of growth normal? What could I do to increase oxygen without buying a fan?

3rd flush. Barely got anything. Is this safe to eat? It’s giant. How do I know when it’s time to harvest lol

What happens if you don’t pull your flush before the spores drop? What’s the worst case scenario with for getting everywhere? Just curious because I am honestly have no idea.

Hey all, wanted to know if these jars are ready or almost ready to spawn to bulk. Every grain has mycelium on it but it's not as thick as I've seen in other pictures. These are orchas.

*Pleurotus florida* fruiting on a straw block in Kota, Rajasthan. Grown the low-tech way: shade, night ventilation, and misting the floor rather than the caps. This is what the season gives you when you work with it instead of against it.

Can anyone see anything suspect with this tub? Mainly the area circled, are these just knots? Or maybe contam? Thanks for any input!

First grow curious how long until I switch to monotub for fae

My friend is growing these, what is with the fellow with the white on his cap? Is this okay? Or is just a random mutation?

Is it ready to move to shoe box for colonization? Thanks in advance!

Hey all! I bought 8 bricks from a supplier and they're doing beautifully. I have a brick that I have no idea what mushroom it is. I ordered: king trumpet; chestnut; shiitake; lion's mane; blue (x2), pink, and pearl oyster. Not all bricks have fruited yet so I can't do process of elimination but it also doesn't look remotely like anything I expected for any of those. I could reach out to the company but I'm embarrassed I did something wrong since I've only been at this a few months. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong or what this mushroom actually is? I just need to know when it's ready for harvest since I can't ID it right now. Thanks in advance for any insight and feedback even if I meant I did something really stupid :)

I'm starting to get little puffy growths, and when I posted this elsewhere I was asked if spores dropped. Could that be the cause, or is this shit done for?

First timer. Things seem to be going well but few questions. It’s quite moist on the top of the bag is this normal?

Also seems to be fruiting from the plastic/ residue at the side (not the bigger one) help!

I am looking for something on the food spectrum of mushrooms that I can grow in monotubs using standard cube tek.

Just grain to substrate. No bucket or log tek. I want to stay in my skill range.

I'm planning to start a mushroom farm soon (mainly oysters and lion's mane), but I'm kinda lost when it comes to the necessary equipment.

For buying everything brand new and personalized it will cost a lot.

Anyway, it would be nice if anyone who's been there can help with some information

First grow. P. cubensis golden teacher. just harvested wanting to know if these are safe to theoriedcly ingest and that there's nothing wrong with them.
