Forgot to keep updating...
Had a few harvests so far. Each cake is pretty independent from each other. When all the mushrooms get picked off one I soak it in water for a day to rehydrate and then more come out.
Got probably about a half oz dried so far.
Seems to be winding down now
One cake had some kind of growth so I tossed it
Another has a deformed one. I think 2 shrooms merged early in growth but not sure
I guess I'll still eat it...
I just did the spore print for fun
The few times I've grown them I just order a syringe and pre sterilized media.
From my recent reading I apparently should have been getting rye instead of the rice flour with the jar method and the only benefit to the rice is that it's easier to sterilize.
