So more or less this is my first grow I'm sure I've fucked it up royally but still stuff is growing first question is, the heck is this yellow stuff and is that normal and second question alot of the mushrooms growing are covered in white fluffy stuff idk if it's mycelium but is it safe to consume? it was fine yesterday and now this yellow stuff is on them suddenly so i went through and picked those ones and another cluster that was very beautiful but its completly covered in that white fluffy stuff an had yellow on the bottom to

were is the yellowing at the base id cut off the caps an little steam they look good to me but im no expert so dont risk it on me but id say the tops are still good soon as the veil tears take em off even if its sooner than u need to cause i picked my caps before they could fully extend and they still worked like a charm so this just a suggestion as long as purple blue were u cut thats is the sign u did good just dont eat anything funky o.0 dont risk is just try again good job

Yeah it's near the base or just somewhere on the stem I can't find anything on Google besides actual yellow mushrooms and I still don't even know what that fuzzy stuff is on them so I guess if no one else answers I'll defiantly just cut those areas off

it starts at the bottom then makes its way all the way up it feels like the mushroom skin when i try to take it off or pinch some off and if it goes on one and another grows close enough to it it will fuse them together with whatever the white stuff is

chop everything that on the tops they should be fine and clean unless someone else chimes in and says other wise

You are good. Your environment has a lot of humidity.


If you see white unbeautiful hair on the caps you have cobweb mold, it will rot the fruit and make an ungodly mess. I don't see that in your picture.
If you do get it it is likely on your casing. It can be stopped with a sprinkling of salt or baking soda. It is about the only contamination that is so easily controled.

OH, the cobweb mold won't kill you but it is still rather unsavory.
