📚 Growing Stages Guide

Reference guide for each stage of the typical cultivation process with expected durations.

🧪 Inoculation

  • Introduction of spores or culture to substrate
  • Work in sterile conditions (SAB or flow hood)
  • Label with date, species, and generation
  • Store in dark, warm location (20-24°C / 68-75°F)
📅 Day 1

🌿 Colonization

  • Mycelium spreads through substrate
  • Watch for contamination (green, black, pink)
  • Maintain temperature and darkness
  • No need to open or disturb
📅 Days 7-21

💪 Consolidation

  • Wait after full colonization for strength
  • Mycelium becomes denser and whiter
  • Prepare fruiting chamber
  • Usually 5-10 extra days
📅 Days 21-30

🍄 Fruiting Conditions

  • Introduce to fruiting chamber
  • Fresh air exchange (FAE) 2-4x daily
  • High humidity (85-95%)
  • Light cycle (12 hours on/off)
📅 Days 30-35

📍 Pinning

  • Small mushroom primordia appear
  • Maintain humidity - critical stage
  • Don't disturb pins
  • Growth visible within hours
📅 Days 35-42

🎉 Harvest

  • Harvest just before veils break
  • Twist and pull gently
  • Remove all fruits and aborts
  • Soak for subsequent flushes
📅 Days 42-50

💡 Tracking Tips

📝 What to Log

  • Daily observations - Even "no change" is useful data
  • Temperature readings - Note any fluctuations
  • Photos from same angle - Makes comparison easier
  • Contamination signs - Document immediately for learning
  • Mushroom measurements - Size, weight, quantity
  • Environmental changes - Weather, season, humidity

⚠️ Warning Signs to Document

  • Green, blue-green, black, or pink coloration
  • Unusual odors (sour, fermented, chemical)
  • Wet, slimy spots on substrate
  • Cobweb-like overlay (different from normal mycelium)
  • Slow or stalled colonization
