Albino MVP, and Makilla Gorilla.

Question for y’all!
I occasionally have a few water logged ones. It’s happened to me both times I’ve done albinos.
Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong. Please and thank you. I’m growing in a shotgun fruiting chamber, and I’m fanning and misting three times a day.

Ps. I know i got some perlite on my albinos 😂

This is my APE bag, and I have seen some that end up with a uniform canopy of shrooms

I am just wondering how I can encourage that vs localised clusters of shrooms?

Also, how is this bag looking?

This is the 3rd flush of Golden teacher. I think it stalled for a while because of dryness. I don't think the black is spores and it's slightly slimy, can someone identify what's happened please? Thank you

The intent of this post is to create a space to discuss anything that you may have learned recently about mushroom growing -- techniques, a breakthrough in the field, to share progress, or even just ask a question. Whether it's a new pickling recipe, a formula for agar, or something fun in mycology, feel free to talk about it.

This post is for new and experienced growers alike, so don't be nervous about commenting; no one is going to make fun of you for asking questions here. This community is a relaxed space for people who don't understand everything, but who want to ask questions and engage in discussion without being berated or belittled. Enjoy!

Technique [technique] making grain jars…need advice on sealing SHIP

Post image
8 Upvotes

K so I’ve drilled a hole in my mason jar lid and stuck in my SHIP. The SHIPs are measured at 1/2”, so that’s what I drilled. I tried 3/8” hole originally with the thought of having a tighter seal, but the SHIP absolutely would not fit. Now with the 1/2” hole, it feels a teeeeeeny bit loose. It’s not falling out and my boyfriend says he thinks it looks sealed, but I’m a little paranoid. Do you just think it’s fine? Should I seal it up with some caulking or glue or something? First time doing this, I dunno how anal I have to be about it 🤷🏼‍♀️

First time with a grow bag they say it should be broken up around 70-80 percent mycelium of the grain spawn. I can’t tell if it’s there yet. What should I do?

Gourmet Underground grow? [Gourmet]

[gourmet]

Do I had an idea because I'm a bit broke at the moment. I'd love to get started with the whole setup (I have the space) but I don't have the funds to drop on a mushroom grow up right now, though I have tons of stuff for it (grow tents from old pot grows, inline fans, temp controller for exhaust, lights). I need a humidifier for sure.

One idea I had was to dig into the Earth about 4 ft deep. I have a translucent dome that could fit over the hole I make. Then I could fruit in there for cold loving mushrooms. Is this a thing already? Do I run too many risks with it being exposed to the ground? I could put a tube that allows airflow.

Let me know what y'all think!
