No clue if too moist or too little FAE, but I’m here for whatever the fuck this is :)

Left bag is also doing a weird blob which sprouted two separate new growths too:

Already harvested some parts of the left one, as they were getting slightly brownish at the tips.

    is this really lion’s mane or some other Hericium species? Doesn’t look like Hericium erinaceus, but I’ve never seen a young one.

    Looks more like Hericium clathroides or Hericium coralloides

        alright then maybe it really is FAE. from my understanding that is what mostly leads to freaky growth. wouldn’t it just get Trichoderma if it was too moist?
