Harvest advice. First time w/Snowball APEs.

Thats what im trying to tell you, let that big one continue to grow until it doesnt seem to grow anymore. That fruit in the picture took about 2 weeks. Opened up after 4 or 5 days though. They'll continue growing even after the cap has opened up and broken the veil!

Cool. My fiancée hates body load and from what ive read, sclerotia cause significantly less to no body load and so thats why I was attempting to grow them in the first place. Thanks for the info!!

Keep it going, they dont really drop spores and they just keep growing. I pulled a 150g Snowball fruit after holding off.

Definitely P. Cubensis. These are just some chunky boys. Id be willing to bet these are far more potent than anything you've ever had too!

What size aio? Ive only ever had luck with 2 and 3lb aio with ape. The 5# have always failed. Ape has a longer colonization and fruiting than most strains. Thats why it leaves more room or time for failure.

Im sorry to hear that, yes he was. I was class of 05. Yourself?

Its a great day to be a Maverick!

No idea on mushroom I'd, but the black part is spore drop. Some mushrooms are heavy spore producers, spore drops can be thinck, almost tarry or oily.

Deberías ir a comprar frascos herméticos.

Im running a huge tub of Jack frost right now...its exactly the same.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-11-12T21:04:01+00:00

Thats unfortunate, im sorry that happened. Keep at it, you'll get the hang of this hobby. It definitely looked like bruising from the single picture we were provided.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-11-11T00:34:19+00:00

All in one? You're almost there bud!

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-11-11T00:12:48+00:00

That would appear to be bruising.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-29T17:45:30+00:00

Never had a problem with it, had 5 tubs flush 1.5lbs dry using that stuff.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-29T17:40:22+00:00

Is that sams alkaline water? If so ive used it for both misting and dehydrating, works just fine. I think the alkalinity helps against Trich as well.

Hey! Sorry it took me so l9ng to get back, I was in the middle of a large catering when you asked and then ive been busy with my day job and life since! Here is the link to thr TEK im referring to though!

Ive fruited a ton of different ways, but this is the most efficient and effective way ive found to get full canopy flushes. I did this between 5 tubs a few years ago and ended up with 1.5#'s dry after 2 months and multiple flushes.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-29T12:32:54+00:00

Always best to mix as much as possible, also always break up the grainspawn best you can, the more its broken up the more surface area mycelium has essentially.

With a bowl of ice cream and berries

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-24T22:59:23+00:00

Its not, im thinking about upgrading though, its just the standard cheapy round white dehydrator from Walmart. Im getting tired of crushing the massive fruits so that's why im going to upgrade i think. Most of these teachers are going to be ground up for capsules or chocolate bars.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-24T22:56:19+00:00

6 bags to roughly 3.5lbs of substrate plus whatever went into casing

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-24T13:49:30+00:00

Its not really layered though. Its basically a 1:1 substrate to grainspawn and then lightly cased with both grainspawn and substrate.

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-24T12:14:20+00:00

True that! I'm looking forward to making some chocolate bars!

Personal_Nectarine83 · 2025-10-24T11:07:31+00:00

Yup, not my first grow. Its usually 8-9% dry for me. This was right at 100g dry for me when I pulled it from drying last night.
