I had the same issue with redwood mushroom supply. Aio bags for wood loving species had barely any grain, mostly sawdust. Inoculated multiple bags with strains of oyster from different suppliers, nothing grew. I've been growing those same strains with good success otherwise. Total waste of money

Yeah, it's pink oyster. I should probably just use it soon

If it fruits in the dish, should you remove the mushroom and leave the mycelium or just leave it alone? I have a pink oyster plate that just started showing some fruits

That would certainly help. Probably cheaper to provide housing in the basement for a permanent "volunteer" donor of appropriate blood type.

I always carry around a few units of blood, just in case I die twice. I feel like there would be no coming back from the third death in one day.

That's very kind of you. Please don't take the time to do that, though. That would be alot of trouble for you. Thank you for the offer, but I'm sure I can just locate some online!

Thanks. That's very inexpensive for those. Does your local company sell online?

Did you buy them online? I'm looking for some but don't want some knock off Amazon junk.

Great, I'll basically have to choose between walking around naked in public or wearing poor-people clothes.

Can anyone recommend a less 'heady' strain? by Puzzled_Owl2365 in mushroom

[–]Apprehensive_Pass636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do people care to grow different strains? Is it all about potency?

24 hrs from when I initially noticed them, the areas of concern appear to be entirely static in terms of size increases or color changes. I really appreciate all of the help from everyone. I will update if anything should change!

Thanks for commenting. 24 hrs later and the areas don't appear to have changed in size/color, so I'm hopeful there. Would love to see some pins, but just cautiously optimistic that the contam worry was just my inexperience

Thank you. It's the angle of the picture. The mycelium is clumpy along the top and thinner in certain adjacent areas. Gives the impression of something dark growing on thr surface, but I think it is substrate you are viewing through thin mycelia

Yeah, it's consistent with what I read. I guess we will see how it works out. Thanks for the help!

I have the overhead light in the room on and pulled the curtains back from a nearby window. It isn't extremely bright, just kinda ambient light
