I posted a few days ago with this weird hair ball type thing that was growing on one of my cakes (3rd flush / MSS / SGFC / PK Tek) and nobody really had a clue what it was/is.

Here was the original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ContamFam/comments/jaiotk/aerial_mycelium_or_something_else/

Few days later these fruit bodies started cropping up, most of them have this extreme fuzzy feet effect (but way more hairy looking than previously) and a couple were completely covered in this white hair effect along the stem, more like the weird hair ball that appeared earlier.

Any ideas on this?

I’m literally new to this Reddit and only semi-familiar with some of this Saturn-Sun information. I’ve been thoroughly reading every post to educate myself on some of these theories to supplement my limited knowledge on the subject. Low and behold I’ve just taken the kids to see this new movie and the end of the film spolier alert is literally crammed with Saturn-Sun symbolism, end of the world, time/space bending portal/gateway references. It was truly a bizarre coincidence that I’ve spent days researching posts here and the first movie I’ve seen in about a week suddenly seems packed with Saturn-Sun references I would otherwise of completely missed.

Sorry if it’s already been posted. B

Another noob question.

Last week I harvested my first flush. I had them in a food dehydrator at 50degrees C for about 6 hours. They felt ‘dry’ when I took them out.

I stored them in a jar inside a plastic zip lock bag with a couple of desiccant packets.

When I came to check on them a week later I noticed they were actually a bit soggy, very black and squishy - nothing like how they felt dry initially.

Obviously I hadn’t dried them enough and they weren’t as cracker dry as I thought they were.

They still smell mushroomy and other than being smaller and a little squishy, they have bruised a ton.

If I pop them back in the dehydrator - are they going to be safe to consume (guessing less

First time growing.

Cubensis.

UK environment, where it's been pretty cold ambient temperature.

It's my first time doing anything with mushrooms. I followed some videos from RR which I purchased from recommendation on this site.

Built a SGFC and these are brown rice cakes for feedback.

I've got a little thermometer set up which is measuring the ambient humidity and temperature (not sure how accurate it is). I'm guessing not very...

Firstly, I did add a baking sheet into the base of my SGFC - which was to stop the leakage of water and Perlite through the base of the tub. I had thought I'd read this on a forum and someone personally advised me to add a sheet, but I think I was confused at

Total Noob, as you can see ...

OK, so I'm seeing some pins growing, but I was hoping to get some advice on troubleshooting for future reference and growing.

I've added some pictures.

So, this is PF Tek, following (or what I thought was following RR's video) - though I've since learnt, the shortcuts and additions I added steered away from following the Tek exactly.

I've got a little thermometer set up which is measuring the ambient humidity and temperature (not sure how accurate it is). It's typically sitting around 99% humidity and around 30degrees (fluctuating a little under or over depending on time of day).

Inside the SGFC I lined it with a baking sheet as when I filled it with rinsed perlite, quite a bit of excess water drained through the ho

I have a quick beginner question.

I've been reading over a lot of posts on Shroomery and other sites, and I'm going with a BRF SGFC approach for my first grow of cubes.

I've downloaded videos as well from RoadRunner and everything all makes logical sense. Haven't quite gone so far as Agar and quality spores, I'm just using spore syringes from a vendor, especially while I'm learning.

One detail that crops up a lot is the ideal optimal temperature for cubes. Pretty much sounds like 84/85 degrees is optimal, yet people are suggesting as low as 70 degrees is acceptable - it's just going to slow your progress.

Here in the Northern Hemisphere (UK) we have some variable weather, within the same

[SERIOUS QUESTION] Am not stoned or high...

You know in some controversial but popular studies, there’s been evidence that talking nicely and playing soothing music to plants encourages them to grow, and also studies on yogurt being able to communicate with other yogurt/bacterial cultures behind walls etc has been evidenced...

Has anyone noticed that talking nicely, singing to or playing positive music around your growing mushrooms has any positive impact whatsoever? You know if you have a contaminated tub near a normal tub it can spread contagion... and someone recently posted about natural rain water having a massive positive impact...

It’s a serious but off the wall question. Has anyon
