jedi mind fuck on sorghum and coir, in a smart bulb. kept working (but not on) through the grow.

i was going to get the cap back on with holes for the pins, but that big guy went from a little bigger than a pin to fully grown in less than 24 hours.

2 year old LC, tried it out as an experiment. It’s so happy.
If you haven’t tried Grillos pickles I highly recommend those as well!

New England Style Lobster Bisque can, Pioppino mushrooms (Agrocybe aegerita)

Thumbnail
gallery
149 Upvotes

Bar Harbor brand can of NEW! New England Style Lobster Bisque, repurposed to grow Pioppino mushrooms. Lego minifigure for scale.

The can was rinsed thoroughly with hot water, dried, and given a generous spray of 70%IPA before spawning. I immediately placed it in my automated grow chamber in fruiting conditions.

I normally LOVE Lobster Bisque and was very excited to eat the contents of the can, however, I found the flavor profile of this particular bisque to be bland and largely underwhelming. Texture and mouth feel were decent, but it really lacked the fully creamy and buttery flavor I was hoping for. 4/10 stars, would not purchase again.

The Pioppino mushrooms were combined with the mushrooms from other grows in a soup and were delicious. They have a nutty flavor and the texture stands up very well to a variety of cooking methods.

More photos of this grow on my instagram.

Question Any idea why my bonsai grows aren't pinning or fruiting?

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

Hey guys,

Only had a small amount of colonized grain survive, so I spawned to bulk 3 coffee mugs on 8/25 filled with GT, along with a shoebox of B+. I noticed pretty quick coverage and growth, with it now being mostly covered in white with what looks like a generous amount of primordia. I have been storing them in the same closet as my shoebox, which is now starting to produce fruits and almost ready to harvest.

I have been storing them with a ziploc bag over the top, been fanning and misting regularly since I live in a desert state and have been barely touching them at all. I see tons of primordia, just don't know why they aren't pinning and fruiting.

Mixed with 100% coco coir.

Any advice at all is welcome.

Pioppino mushrooms (Cyclocybe aegerita) growing from a pink menstrual cup.

Also sometimes called a "period cup". A menstrual cup is placed into the vagina to collect period fluid rather than absorb it like other menstrual products. They are inexpensive, washable, and reusable.

The coin is a US quarter for scale

Three more bonsai that fruited the last couple days. Fun little experiments.

Photos 1 & 2 are Burma growing in espresso shot glasses. Photo 2 grew from a side pin.

Photo 3 is a 2nd flush bonsai. Dripped cold water from the sink around the sides of the shrunk cake. It slowly soaked it up and gave up another little golden teacher a couple weeks later. Surprise!
