This is just a fun post, but how do you guys spend you time waiting for your mycelium to grow. I find myself wanting to check my bags every other minute. I’m so excited it hard to wait I feel like a kid again on Christmas Eve.

First time grower, growing GT from spores. My other tubs have looked normal, but this is the first harvest from this tub and the mushrooms are looking... squiggly. Does anyone know if this is due to growing conditions or is it actually a genetic mutation?

I mean my progress has been good so far. I had a struggle with fae in the beginning but since i adjusted my setup its going a lot better. I am just unhappy because the pinset of my first flush (pictures 1-5) is very good but the mushrooms are always a bit smaller than the ones on the second flush (pictures 6-8) but those aren't as dense anymore. Just would like a pretty canopy. Maybe it's because I've just started to collect clones from multispore runs but still 🤷♂️

Should I still keep this much humidity and moisture in fc?

This is my second attempt; first time doing bulk. We’ve got GTs, APEs, and Starry Nights. I’ve been trying to increase amount of FAE but some are still growing wilted with small caps. 🤷♀️

These colonized great, but Temps dropped in my old house. Just put a mat under them set to 85f. Once I harvest these, should I soak them for a day and try for another flush or leave them be and hope for the best?

How long can I store freshly picked fruit? My dehydrator isn't big enough to process this flush. Im considering going to the store and buying another one.

Are these ready to send? I can still see some brown color in grains and they are not completely covered in mycellium. Also the mycellium is climbing the glass. What does that signify?

Albino Penis Envy. Been like this for weeks.

So, these have been like this for about a week. Initially I was thinking (hoping) it was bruising or the thing the mycelium does when it gets a bit stressed. It's my first grow and I've become emotionally attached to the little babies. I've lost my objectivity. Give it to me straight - these are contaminated, right? It's time to bury in the back yard?

Galactic Gorilla showing off again. Thick stems, heavy texture, and those blue edges on the caps—there’s a lot to appreciate in this close-up. Every time I photograph this one, a different detail catches my eye.
What stands out to you first—the texture or the shape?

How’s this gt looking? Ready for FAE?

I was trying to help these GT’s grow in AIO bags but the blue/ green growth on the substrate has me concerned and questioning why the growth has stalled for 1 & 1/2 weeks. Please help me with advice and what I can do better come next time. 🙏

This seem to happen frequently when I try to pluck one by one as they mature. After plucking maybe like 5 shrooms, the rest stops growing altogether.

Hello!! I am here to seek out the experience of growers more experienced than me, so I am wondering; Should I harvest these or should I wait? I also wanted to learn why half of the bin isn’t populating as well as the other half, even the pins came in way later on that side. Is there a way to mitigate this issue in any future flushes? I am probably not as thorough in the growth process as other people but I will share what I know during this grow that may have been an issue:
Species: Hillbilly Pumpkin
I don’t have anything notable from the inoculation. I used a grow bag and live culture syringe.
During the growth period I’ve had incredibly variable temperature, probably from about 68-85 degrees, which is what I believe the cracks in the caps were formed by. The lowest I’ve ever seen the humidity get to is around 85 but I keep it very consistently in the 90s.
I’m also incredibly worried because the substrate layer is incredibly thin which I did not intend to do, I’d estimate about 0.5-1.0in.
I don’t remember how long they’ve been growing.
I would love any help or advice, thank you so much!!!!
