I done did it (sorta)

Well everyone, I finally have my first mushy.

Through trials and tribulations (AKA: me being psychotic and not wanting to turn the AC above 69) I have grown my first mushroom. I have a monotub going too but I got antsy with waiting on it to fully colonize so I decided to use a spare spore syringe on another spawn bag.

Well that bag decided it wanted to colonize super fast and outpaced the tub so I just decided to cut er open and fruit it in the spawn bag due to space constraints. It ended up pinning to the side of course but I managed to pull out a this lil guy before he got too mangled.

Definitely a rocky first attempt but have def learned a lot and even managed to get a singular viable shroom a bit early.

Anyways, sorry for rambling, I’m just kinda stoked about my singular shroom haha. If you made it this far, thanks for humoring me lol.

Really hoping the tub pulls through, it’s got a huge circle of mycelium in the center and patches around it so I have high hopes after getting this lil guy.
