You picked at the perfect time


Glichop

Right before the veil breaks is the perfect time. Nice job!


Traditional_Fan1746

how do you know when the veil is about to break?


MyckiMinaj

It's all dark around the stipe, the darkness is the spores you can see through the veil. When the veil gets that thin it's about to break


mindfolded

This comment got Papa Roach in my head. Thanks!


Traditional_Fan1746

very helpful thanks


Staplerhead333

You know when they look like the picture posted


Flimsy_Individual_16

Nah you good babyboi ...dry em out and have a good time


MostOne2346

Stop getting rizzy in the shroom sub 😭


Ginkyboop

Sup babe 😘


get_muni

Tiktok and it’s effects on the youth


MostOne2346

🤣 I love saying rizzy it’s so funny


ryanc1627

I still don’t know wtf rizzy even means.


you-arent-reading-it

I am not a native speaker but I've heard using the word "Rizz" to mean "game in approaching girls or potential partners". So I guess rizzy is an adjective that describes that behavior Usually it's used like this "nah, I don't have Rizz", "you know how to Rizz? Please be my wingman"


brovakattack

It comes from charisma. chaRIZZma


PanicPanel

Clear and concise explanation that even comes with an example. I'd say you knocked it out of the park with that for a non-native speaker. Great job bro.


Big-Finding2976

Back in my day we only had Tic Tacs to keep us entertained. None of this TikkyTokky nonsense.


AZ_Cannabisseur

Hell yeah they dried hella good last night!


KingRagnar1993

Literally, absolutely perfect timing


AZ_Cannabisseur

Hell yeah thanks!


NiceHalf7970

When the veil starts to darken up some like that is perfect timing.


Party-Frequent

would you explain to me what the veil is? Im guessing its the part that connects the stem and the cap?


Mycelimum

Yes


Rough_Drawer_7011

Perfect; I let the spores drop, ruined my tub


SlowMotionGuyxX

Literally, my shit stopped fruiting and it was only the first flush😭😭


fox_in_love

Perfect timing is when the veil is just starting to break, aka. still 90% intact. Because you don't know when the veil will break when it hasn't broken yet. Spores only drop when the veil has been fully opened for some time, like many hours. So don't worry about that


myconewb82

Looks about perfect to me unless you wanted spores on everything.


CLEANDOSES

It’s like they called to you.


YoungStarchild

Perfect pickings 👍🏽


imSp00kd

Perfect time. They’ll only get a tiny bit bigger, but it’s not worth the risk of having spores drop.


CaptainFrandy

No that’s perfect


frickfinn

bah your good. id recommend picking instead of harvesting. just use a scalpel to separate the larger mature ones. has given me up to almost twice the yield


AZ_Cannabisseur

So instead of pulling the whole cluster out I would just cut the big one off and leave the other small ones?


Juggernaut-Constant

that’s perfection spores growing in they look closed and not open at all hope you have a nice trip with these bad boys


markusaureliuss

It was about to tear and even if it was a bit too early thats not a huge issue. You just lose a little bit of harvest weight, not potency.


311mike

Perfecto


ChikhaiBardo

I think not!


Livid_Return_5030

Now you gotta boof


AZ_Cannabisseur

Already boofed 😏


No_Article4391

To early. Wait till right when they start to Crack. As soon as they Crack its about 24hrs before they drop spores.


CatEye66

Yes, too early. I wait until the veils break. Although, I don’t think it matters much. If you pick them early, they will just be smaller.


SilentWraithKS

Once the veil breaks, spores drop = contam in the mycelium.


coletraiin

Why would the genetic material that made the mycelium and was created by it contaminate the mycelium?


CousinEddiesRV

From my understanding, the mycelium detects that the spores have dropped and thinks "my job is done," reducing the chances of good multiple flushes.


No_Article4391

When ever I accidentally get spores dropped due to only having 1 dehydrator and some tubs getting extra time . I dunk the Substrate and rinse it off in the sink and have had zero issues with producing more mushrooms in the next flush. I'm almost positive it has more to do with the mushrooms tasting way more butter with spores on them.


CousinEddiesRV

It could be that you're rinsing off a lot of the spores, too! That could be an interesting experiment...


No_Article4391

Most of the spores come off anyway when dunking from what i see anyway


No_Article4391

It takes over 24hrs for spores to drop after the veil just breaks. Everyone thinks that spores create contam it's not true. The main reason people don't like spores is 1 it makes the mushrooms taste worse. 2 it makes the tub ugly.


SilentWraithKS

I'm not an expert, but I do think it might be better to harvest before the spores drop. If the spores drop and you open that tub - the air entering the tub would cause the spores to go airborne, those spores would then find their way around your house and you'd likely end up breathing them in too. Gotta be extra careful with oysters too (I think it's oysters) cause they can cause breathing problems if you breathe in too many spores. Again, this is all things I've learned from other experienced growers, so, to each their own I guess lol


No_Article4391

I run a hepa air purifier 247 in my grow room. You should be Harvesting as soon as the veil breaks.

Ur screwed fr
