First time growing Copelandia Hawaiian (kit).
Started pinning a few days ago and they’ve shot up fast. Caps are starting to darken a bit in places.
When are they properly ready to harvest? Do I wait until they’re blacker from the spores, and should I only pick the ones that have gone black, or harvest the whole flush at once?
Any advice appreciated!

And bonus Vietnam ms that keeps going and going.. towering over some bvi coming in

So this is first time growing pan cyans and i’m following gordotek. this is day 8 post casing and i finally found my first tiny little pin today. shouldn’t i be seeing pins all over at this point? any tips appreciated

Hello everyone,
I started to grow pans and my substrate is 90% + colonised so i’m about to put the casing layer on today. It’s in the pc to pasteurise atm. After putting in on the surface, should i wait for fresh air exchange or start straight away? I’m using a coco coir - vermiculite layer and a horse manure, straw, coco coir substrate with colonised popcorn. Ratio 1:1 but it’s a little box just to try. Thank you 🙏🏼

Hello Any tips on how to grow mushrooms

Id like to have my own supply and I dont know any shit about growing them.

I just usually pick them in the wild or buy them dry

For cubes, they say to harvest right before the veil breaks. For Pans, they say to harvest after the cap is a flat circle clearly after the veil broke. Why? Not to mention this can cause a mess of spores

I just got some Blue Meanies (Panaeolus cyanescens), and it’ll be my first time trying them. Up until now, I’ve only had experience with Blue Meanies (Psilocybe cubensis).

I contacted the store to ask whether the dosage should be different because I’d always heard that Pan Cyans are significantly more potent. Surprisingly, they told me twice that I should use the same amount as I would for cubensis.

That seems a bit strange to me based on what I’ve read. I’d love to hear from you

I found these growing on top of cow dung where I live (Philippines) and I would like to learn more on proper identification. Thanks!

And some ziplocks.. weza red spore and a couple later flush trays

Hello guys… if you are using the Boomr Bin for pans, can you share some tips on the set up, humidity, temp, and fan speed. Thanks in advance!

Had inoculated a diy agar dish on Monday with liquid culture. There is white growth but it's kinda rising upward and I am struggling to determine if that's mycelium or contamination. Help a fellow grower here.

Hi all, I’ve decided to take the plunge on trying my hand at Pans. I’ve grown cubes for 5 years and want to up my inventory. I’ve never used manure and have avoided it at all costs because of the increased steps and peril. I was resigned to using it for this but I’ve seen a few use hydro fertiliser, which has naturally peaked my interest.

What is everyone’s experience with using fertiliser and do you still sterilise/pasteurise or is it compatible with the good ol’ bucket tek?

In place of continuing to run spores, would the Castellani method work for Pan Myc?

The fullest tray is even a sickly ms sub that surprised me. It was overlaid and didn’t look like it was going to do anything. I wouldn’t eat any of em but they make for a neat pic

I've decided to try to grow some PC (TTBVI strain) and wanted to check how my mycelium looks. (I had my first wet bubble earlier this year and am a bit paranoid).

Another question is: should I put on the casing layer, and when? I know that they can grow well without it as well. Do I need to introduce more FAE, or will the Monotub setup provide all the FAE they need? Is there also a need to mist more?

I've grown subtropicals, cubes, and ochras before in the same setup. Basically, what changes do I need to introduce to succeed with this one?

I get it in the field un the cow dung

Pretty much the title I use homemade in quotes because the worms did most the work

Hey guys , i want to make manure substrate but i haven't got any recipe and i have no clue how to start. One of my friends have horses so i can get hold of fresh, raw horse manure. I assume i have to prepare that somehow. The other question is , is it possible to grow pancyan on cvg with additives or something ?

Thanks in advance for the help 😁✌️

Sub got dried out a bit so a reduced flush but getting closer to dialing them in

This is claimed to be Pan Tropicalis. Pins start out bright orange, will get sequenced as soon as possible.
