I've recently fallen in love with mushrooms! Where have they been my whole life?
I have 2 lavander rhodactis
and this one green that I think is a ricordea.

Just added this small Rainbow Bounce Rhodactis to the collection!
Already see 4 small bubbles forming at the top! A few shots showing the multi-coloured vesicles around the sides.

Wow! Where did you get this? And for how much? If you don’t mind me asking

How quick do these grow and how quick do they reproduce compared to "normal" shrooms. I'm asking because I heard they are harder to care for and grow slower
I defer to others as I’ve never owned one. Closest thing I have is the bright reddish-orange ones I just posted. Those reproduce at the foot, like discos. The rics reproduce by forming a new mouth and pinching. Not sure about the jawbreaker types, suppose it would depend on the genus???

I thought they all produce the same way just depends how they want to produce. I just heard that jawbreakers produce slower and grow slower wasn't sure that's all.

Lol.. thanks! Yes, one peach and one rainbow. Best part is I got them both for free on a trade. I split BTAs like crazy and I swapped two for one of each at my LFS!
That’s crazy! :eek: Mine is around 4.5” across and it still hasn’t split:
