here is what wrote earlier in this thread, husalife is correct and most mush peeps agree,contaminated jars can not get saved and needs to be taken out of the grow area as it will continue to infect in the future, the jar needs to be sterile before being brought back to your grow are.OK...
Sterile Tek is the absolute number one difference between getting mushies and not getting mushies. Many peeps do things diff just like ganja growers, different FCs, different substrates, different spawn, but what does not change is you must perform innoculation as sterile as possible. In my research I found peeps that took sterile conditions lightly were the ones who wasted time by even trying, meaning they waited weeks just to find a green spot in their jars. Contamination can not be saved, any sign and the jar must be desposed of in a specific manner. The reason you can not save a contam jar is this: mycellium is a mass even though you may not see, it is all connected. A contam in one spot means the whole jar is infused with the contam, not just what you see. Eating a contam mushie is no joke, death or permanent disability is possible. At the least you would get very sick. I am stoned and so will relate a bit more about peeps who try to grow shrooms and end up just wasting their time, I have prob read every thread on this site that has anything to do with mushies, all the way back to the very first mushie thread by Beaner. Here is his thread from 2007. I actually found his thread while doing ganja research and he was on a thread of FDDs and FDD was growing mushies as a lark and never intended to try any. FDD is up front on that thread (which I am not sure of the name of but it was 2007) he half assed and got contams and then just scooped them out. Luckily, the cake did not consolidate and he never had mushies. This is in no way a shot at FDD, like most I love his threads and his keeping RUI an environment where all are equal. He half assed the mushie tek and made no bones about it, so did Beaner till he got serious because he failed. There is a pic in his thread on his first attempt were he is sitting on his carpet with the jars between his legs, innoculating. It was contamed. This is not a shot at Beaner either. He got serious and became succesful, so I would read his mushie thread, it is very good.
If you want to do research for mushies go here and here to do it.
RR is RogerRabbit he has the vids called Lets Grow Mushrooms that is a must watch. Well I was reading an old thread by a bunch of peeps on RUI on mushies and it was pretty bad how they reinforced each others ignorance. Anyway, RR actually comes on the thread ( i want to say he used the name Tompsonrobert or robertompson or whatever, could be way off but if you read the thread it is obvious it is RR because he rants about the use of polyfill with a brf cake FC, as he makes the shotgun chamber), well the peeps on the thread totally ignored his info and actually asked him to stop commenting!Fucking RR a mycologist! So watch and beware of where and who you get your info from.

These are Golden Teachers and they are not for sale, so I want to pick at the best time, not worried about drying them before this weekend. Do I pick the biggest ones first, and go back later? when do I dunk for second flush?

When you pick, pick the entire flush off. Aborts and all. Then I rinse off a little then I put in a small container full of water and in the fridge
over night. Then put your cake back in the terrerium for next flush. Ive gotten 3 flushes and Ive gotten 7 flushes from cakes. Just depends
on how much time you wanna spend with them or if they get contamed.

Your girls are looking wonderful as well. Wish I could smell the room lol.
I never grew Golden Teachers, but they look like they are doing good. Dark Slick headed lil fuckers lol.
Eat you about 35g's fresh this weekend, then later after they are dry eat 3.3g's or so and compair a Fresh trip to a
Dry trip. Fresh is WAAAAY better IMO.
The big long one on my arm in the pics I added weighed like 73grams, I ate it fresh......WOW...lol hardcore mushroom trip but
100% wonderful.

If you want results from one of those jars, make a caseing from it. It more than triples the fruit from a jar.Thanks husa, that is good info. I have a cake to be birthed this weekend and a bunch behind that, so I am looking forward to fun times all summer
