hey im a first time grower. everything is going good. but ive been picking some mushrooms because the are ready while others arent. is that ok? i make sure im very clean. but today i wanted to turn up the heat in the room and i think they got a little too hot. 29c approx. and they have a darker brown tinge on them now. is that mould or just overheated. is this ok?? shoot!!

brown tinge hu? never heard of something like that but i mean caps can have a normal color of carmal or redish so it might be normal usually contams are green

ya the only thing that sketches me out tho is that i can rub the dark brown off, i heard that it may be bacteria. so i wonder if i can just pic them and clean it off. i did that with some and it seemed to work.

negitive ghost rider. dont touch them at all. leave them for 2 days to see if any thing grows on them if u see anything out of the regular pick them and discard them , there invected and most likey cotam. the added heat might of dried them out and cobwebb mold will set in its a fury lookng stuff that will cover ur cakes fast and ur fruits also. just watch out for that. if nothing happens in 2 to 3 days u got lucky. good luck
