How did you end up cooking them? I always like slicing them into medallions and frying them up kind of like scallops to help my

MaccaTheHack,

To help your what? I’m intrigued. Some I fried in butter for an omelette, others I had with noodles, and I dried a lot of them. I’ll probably rehydrate those and cook them in cider with sausages

You sure that’s not a capybara?

M500, in Found this mushroom in my mom's yard today (location: Tagaytay, Philippines)

Any idea if it’s edible?

You don’t just eat them immediately and say fuck it we ball?

I’ve heard this is quite a different experience than cubes. Do you have a preference for one or the other?

sploosh,

If cubes are Labyrinth cyans are The Dark Crystal.

Manifish_Destiny,

If you had to match each to a Nicholas Cage movie?

sploosh,

Was he in anything with muppets?

Cyans are the best. Period. I grow cubes. I wish I could grow cyans.

PlantJam,

There’s a guy on shroomery that seemed to have it down to a science a few years ago. It was a little more involved than cubes but not by much. I haven’t been active there in a while, I wonder if the process has been simplified since then.

@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

I will have a look. If you happen to find it and remember, do please let me know.

PlantJam,

Just remembered that guy grew Panaeolus cyanescens. Not sure if Psilocybe cyanescens can be cultivated.

I’ve grown Pans and they’re no harder than cubes if you know how to pastuerize and balance FAE and humidity for oyster mushrooms. And I know people grow Psilocybe Cyans but they tend to fruit them outside in a wood patch.

Panaeolus cyanescens can be grown at home - at least there are finished sets, I couldn’t get to fruit mine with cow dung, as planned… But the original substrate worked well

treefrog, (edited )

I’ve grown Bisporus, which are slower than Cyans. If you know how to pastuerize (which you can do in a dehydrator if you want to make it idiot proof; message me if you want help on this), they’re not that hard. They like a lot of FAE and humidity, similar to oyster mushrooms, but people grow those all the time without issue.

Check out Baba Yaga’s thread on the shroomery, growing pans in monos. They really don’t require a lot of extra shit if you’re patient and know how to clone.

edit: my bad, these are the woodloving cyans not pan cyans. Anyway, Pans are fucking better than cubes and not hard to grow if you ever want to try.

Thank you!

Ghyste, in Psilocybe cyanescens

Wish I knew where to get spores…

Orbituary,
@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

Doesn’t matter. You can’t just grow them. You need the right substrate and luck beyond luck.

Ghyste,

True.

AArun,

M8 you just need a good ol bag of uncle Ben’s rice.

Orbituary,
@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

Not for cyans. UBC is for cubes and oysters, M8.

PlantJam,

Cyans are a bit more particular than that unfortunately.

13esq,

I tried twice and had no problem getting the mycelium to fully incorporate the substrate but I never got any mushrooms to fruit.

Orbituary,
@Orbituary@lemmy.world avatar

Cubes or cyans?

13esq,

It was so long ago I honestly couldn’t say

Lowpast,

The internet. It’s legal to buy them. Literally mushrooms.com

Whatever you do, just don’t dry it out and eat it.

cashews_best_nut, in A nice one from a P.C. flush

Why the gloves?

remotelove,
@remotelove@lemmy.ca avatar

To reduce the chances of contaminating the substrate. The mycelium is a little more vulnerable just after a harvest, it seems.

TBH, gloves and a quick spray of isopropyl is just my habit when doing any mushroom work.

Alfredolin, in I don’t think this is going to hold much longer

Woah. Is this cheese?

Decoy321, in I don’t think this is going to hold much longer

Put up some scaffolding! A few toothpicks with their edges blunted should do.

MaccaTheHack,

Too late! It collapsed within seconds

Decoy321,

Awwww.

PlantJam, (edited ) in It collapsed

Cool find! Can you tell us more about this mushroom and how you grew it? How did you prepare it?

MaccaTheHack,

I grew it from a kit. It’s a cross between p.eryngii and p.ostreatus, sometimes known as black pearl oyster mushrooms

electrogamerman, in Definitely a grower

if i lick it, will it get bigger faster?

MaccaTheHack,

I’m resisting the temptation to be obscene

electrogamerman,

Why? daddy

treefrog, (edited ) in Soon they will take control

I haven’t had great luck with Kings though they are delicious. Been growing Black Pearl and they’re super aggressive fruiters.

SplashJackson, in If these things kept growing for a month they’d take over the joint

Yum yum oyster

Cheradenine, in Here we go

Are those king trumpets?

MaccaTheHack,

They are black pearl oysters, which are a cross between p. eryngii (king) and p. ostreatus (grey)
