So ordered this in spring. When it arrived i was so excited i did not verify that it had completely colonized before cutting the slit in the block. After a day of misting under a humidity tent, the block started to grow green forest mold on the top. I figured the thing was a waste of money and time. But to me this was an experiment and no result is inconsequential. So i watched it for the next week. To my amazement fruits did not come out of the slit but rather the 4 small holes i poked chopsticks into for the humidity tent. I got a 3/4 lb first flush. I pulled it out and left it on the table while i did other things for the next 10 days. Again i saw it fruiting out of the chopstick holes. I re-tented it and brought the humidity up. Second flush was around 1/2lb. Another thing i did not expect was that the mycelium was eating the green mold. I let the block dry for another week and then misted the slit directly for 2 days with RO water. The third flush was again around 1/2 lb and tasted great. It flushed twice more but very little mushrooms came out...maybe 1/3lb over both flushes. The block never stopped flushing, i finally just tossed it into my compost bin with some weeds and wood chippings from yard work. We will see if it makes mushrooms in the bin this fall. I took some of the inner block and spawned it off to some popcorn to make a spawn for straw. Well this has started the most mind consuming experimenting that i have ever done and now i have a hydro grow tent with this pink oyster, golden oyster and Lion's Mane in it. all growing like crazy. So be careful, if you are a scientist at heart and love to discover new things and have a tendency to like to tinker with things and run experiments, DO NOT buy a mushroom kit! It is very addicting and WILL take you away from your family.....but they will have some awesome mushrooms ;)
