The Trials of Mushrooms
Started by CarbonMinion

Trial: adding amber ichor as a fertilizer

 

Subjects: Agaricus bisporus(cremini), Amanita muscaria (fly agaric), Warped fungus, and      

               Crimson Fungus

 

Mediums: mud, dirt and coarse dirt

 

    There were two different amounts of amber ichor were used on all subject types in mud, dirt, and coarse dirt. Both amounts were mixed thoroughly.



Trails

 


 



Day 0: all subjects were put into each of the mediums and were given as close to ideal

           conditions as possible if the given space.

 

Day 1: All subjects in the mud seem to have too much water intake, are more dull in color, and

           overall feel softer to the touch than they should. All other subjects seem to have not

          changed in quality

 

Day 2: All subjects in the mud seem to be decomposing much quicker than they normally

           should. The subjects in the coarse dirt with the higher amount of amber ichor appear to

           be close to the condition of the subjects in the mud but there doesn’t seem to be much of a reason why this happened within the last 24 hours .

 

Day 5: After leaving all remaining subjects in a closed dark space, all subjects with the larger

           amount of amber ichor has started to decay. It should be good for the soil but it seems like the amber ichor have sped up only that process

 

Day 10: The remaining subjects in the coarse dirt have completely decayed. Of the remaining

             the warped fungus and the crimson fungus have started to lose color and are becoming

             unable to hold up their own weight. The cremini and the fly agaric are growing extremely

            well and has kept growing as they should

 

Day 14: The only remaining subjects are the cremini and fly agaric but there have been a few

             changes to them since I last checked. They have a faint glow while in the dark and have

             changed color quite a lot. The cremini has gone from a brown to a reddish-purple color

             and the fly agaric has gone from a bright red with white spots to magenta with what

             looks to be almost a seafoam green color.
