So I’ve had my Raunchy Reds take over my rock work in the past few years (from a couple to a hundred heads), and so I decided to try my luck at more expensive shrooms.

Hopefully picking up some magic carpets, was wondering if there was a difference between raising them on a rock vs a ceramic tile?

I’m guessing most people raise them on tiles so they are easier to frag/sell.

But that aside, anyone know if growing them on rocks makes them split faster? I have most of my Raunchy Reds on rocks, and while them spreading like a weed can be a problem, I feel like the rock work might encourage more baby popping up somehow?
 
They reproduce by pedal fission. I would hypothesize that the rougher, uneven substrate would be conducive to more pedal tears and polyps?
