Growpotkin Super excited for my first attempt at growing mushrooms. Here’s what the Zamnesia website has to say: The magic mushroom Psilocybe cubensis Golden Teacher made its first appearance in the late 1980's. The origin is unknown, but what the name refers to is plain to see - the caps have a golden color and the effect can teach you new perspectives. You can expect several flushes - and all you need is a tad of patience. Happy travels!

Growpotkin Quite a lot of mycelial growth but no pins yet! Moved this into my grow tent because the house is too cold, so I suspect that has held things up.

Growpotkin We have action! Two small caps have appeared overnight. Have rearranged the bag to make space. It’s taken a while but I’m very excited!

Growpotkin Lovely to see fruiting bodies popping up. It’s hard to see in the photos but a bunch are growing in between the substrate and the side of the tub.

Growpotkin I have blue mold! Incredibly disappointed. I’ll keep it going but I can’t imagine a positive outcome. Super bummer.

Growpotkin Yep, I think we’re done. I’m pretty disappointed, so we’ll see how the next attempt goes.

Did you end up trying anything off this?

@eurorack, no, they were too moldy. I tried growing them again and it worked great, so I think I must have been not careful enough to avoid infection.

Amico ha bisogno di condizioni migliori! Il micelio mi sembra a rischio contaminazione quindi massima pulizia i più fanatici dicono di indossare pure la mascherina quando li apri! Inoltre per proliferare bene devono avere una buona umidità ma non mi sembra il tuo problema ma anche una temperatura costante di 23 gradi consiglio un tappeto o una barra riscaldante che ti aiutino a tenere la temperatura costante! Altro consiglio fodera la scatola trasparente con del nastro coprente per evitare che nascano funghi anche sotto che ammuffiscono e non sono ottimali!!!!! Mi raccomando raccogli i funghi prima che si aprino e perdano le loro spore! Nel massimo della pulizia pulisci il micelio metti acqua 12 ore in frigo elimina l'acqua e inizia un nuovo giro con gli accorgimenti che ti ho dato avrai un raccolto migliore!!! Buona fortuna!!!!
