Comments:
VERY strange primordia. All over the culture (even inside the bag walls) the culture brought up pins like spines (see pics). These stayed for a few days until some of them (only few compared to their count) began to grow into these mature fruitbodies. Mycelium & fruitbodies have a near unpleasant (but fresh) odor- I will try them in a few days, will see how they taste when cooked.

Tasty. Hope they taste as good as they look. Nice grow as usual.

I don't think I'll dunk it. Due to all this small primordia I would risk mold and thats something I really don't need in my growing room. Perhaps there will be a second flush.
