Ok it seems like people are getting angry from my excessive threads. I’m just going to talk about everything on this thread from now on until this golden teacher and APE grow is over. Then I may start a new thread for my second grow that will include 4 tubs, (golden, teacher, APE, Ecuador, and maybe another strain or 2). If there is an ADMIN around that can help me figure out how to delete those other threads I would really appreciate it. When I made them I was completely new to forums and this site and I made a lot about specific subjects all within the same grow. I now know by people getting irritated that I should just post everything here. So if there is an admin on this thread I would appreciate the help. Thank you.

Oh my APEs have pinned. Here’s a quick shot of them. Hopefully my apes come out good sized and that way I can conclude I just got a batch of dwarf teachers. Also my second flush of teachers is starting. But there are a ton of aborts too small to pick from the last flush. Sorry about the confusion guys. I’m new to the site and completely new to any sort of forum website. My apologies.

My second flush of teacher for this grow came in last night.

I don't think its that you got dwarf teachers... it takes two spores to grow a mushroom... It may just so happen that the genetic cake you baked that run had smaller genetics but the same set of spores could just as easily bake a different, larger cake teh next time around.

 

What I think really caused your smaller mushrooms i the substrate you used. Coir and Verm provide no additional nutrients like hpoo would. I have always found that coir/verm only substrate produce smaller fruits...

Well done, patience prevails. With all of this experience now, you can get a good 2nd attempt going and learn even more.

And thank you everyone for your encouragement, advice and kind words.

Ape pins developing further. I don’t know how to tell when they are fully matured. Isn’t it when they turn dark blue like that one in the back?

First flush of APE is usually very small fruits and aborts.  Harvest once the caps start to curl up.  The second flush will give you much larger fruits. 

 

You can let APE go longer than other species.  With most, you want to harvest right before the veil breaks.  Since APE rarely produces spores, let it go another few days after the veil breaks.  They will get larger.  APE is a hybrid that could not survive in nature.
