Here is a specimen that doesnt seem to be producing spores. atleast not as many. none that are visible with the naked eye..

it leaves the veil looking incredibly beautiful as if a pedal. check it out!
let me know if you know anything about this as I figure it should be producing spores like its brothers and sisters as shown in one of the previous pictures, obviously the spore darkening around the veil is visible.​

Was this from a multispore inoculation?
If so, then at a guess the primordium from which that carpophore arose was destined to be only weakly fertile because it resulted from mating of two hyphae of poorly compatible mating types. If you observe a sporeless carpophore again and are set up for agar cloning it would be a fun exercise to make a culture and fruit it in order to see if the sporeless trait is carried in the genetics instead of being down to environmental factors.

That makes sense to the degree of my knowledge.

I'll try this when I get into agar. Thanks for the creative idea and response Downwardsfromzero!

Always a pleasure​
