Great video, thanks for sharing so much valuable info. I’m growing Lion’s Mane in Seattle, (small scale). Glad you’re all doing well!

[@ssss-lw4gn]

thank you for info on tents. do you have a video on what other components you put in tent. what you use for humidity? what kind of fans etc. I was thinking of building a 20 X 40 metal building and starting a mushroom business for some extra income.

[@failure2leisure847]

would love to hear more on this subject! mush love

[@sarahdemiollis7214]

Thanks! Useful tips, im growing mushrooms on a small scale in Cairo, Egypt.

[@sarandeeb7633]

Thank you very much for the inspiring videos that you are doing. Allow me to ask you what are you doing with the mushroom blocks after harvesting?

[@coinjunkyag1626]

Great vids can’t wait to start hope I get to soon😁👍thanks for sharing 👍

[@MEAT_CANNON]

You should get a giant dehydrator for your oyster mushrooms. They keep a lot longer dried out.

[@cnc-ua]

Thank you.

[@judyboldonbain3284]

Thank you for sharing. Very impressive

[@Forgiven369]

Thank you. Soooo very much.

[@michaelturner6425]

Thinking about growing wow what an informative show and fascinating all the best from Brittany France.

[@schillerj]

Great channel! What size tent/model of the gorilla tents are you using? If ducting air-conditioning into the tents how well do they hold temperature verse outside temp.

[@RuthlynWills]

Awesome video, been binge watching 😁

[@fezzybear92]

Big fan brother !!! Keep it up, truly envious !!!

[@BOBSKIZZZ]

Always great and informative videos! Thanks!!

[@riverrat499]

Keep it up my man, love your videos

[@valensalas]

Youre an inspiration!!

[@Travis_Trout]

what size gorilla tents do you use? i'm considering starting a mushroom farming business and am trying to figure out the yield possible per tent. it looks like you have about 30 bags per wire rack and six racks per tent. thanks for your help; your videos are very informative.

[@johnf1296]

❤

[@k1ng_0fthes0uth-8]

Love the content, I've learned so much

[@muchimi]

love your channel and what you've done!! I'm 66, have 400 sq ft of basement to start. would love to grow this into a business.

[@muchimi]

@Adams outside of the funstuff, I'm thinkging medicinal edible, like turkey tail, lions mane, chicken of the woods, oyster, chaga, reshi, etc

[@sinhnguyen4815]

You have to keep up with the trade more, bro. You're definitely one of the few experienced people in this trade.

[@8BIGNIC8]

could you make a video where you shine black light at the Mushrooms and show in wich color they are lighting up? :)

[@sooocal6788]

Hello! Question please, how do you regulate the temperature and humidity within each tent? Do you mind sharing your controls in place for that?

[@doloresinkenbrandtanddawnc9212]

Greetings from sunny SW Florida. Great information. Really enjoy your videos. What's the best inexpensive 5x5 grow tent please?. Thanks

[@frankieconey9962]

Much Respect ✊🏾

[@reynasolar8451]

Hola cómo estás gusto en saludarte felicidades tengo una pregunta cuál es la razón de hacer bolsas tan pequeñas gracias

[@jenelynalarcio3952]

You grow oyster mushroom in huge clusters they are beautiful ... Here in Philippines we can't grow that big

[@tscott2416]

Thank you for your very informative and interesting content. You've mentioned high oxygen levels in the fruiting rooms a couple of times, do you have a device that enriches the oxygen levels or is it an effect of the high humidity?

[@GianJin]

It's just the consequence of practicing the incisions. Once done they will allow the air to circulate through the substrate, increasing the oxygen levels within the bag :)

[@bonifayman2664]

What's the prices for 5 pounds of your different mushrooms, oyster mushrooms in particular

[@Alex.The.Lionnnnn]

What size bags are those. I'm buying mine from ebay (Aus) and the largest I can get is 250x500.

[@ChippyTrance]

Let us see your air system in detail please. Thanks

[@tee2green79]

Any advice on lighting for your tent setups? How much light is actually necessary I wonder? Contemplating just using my window in my tent for just some ambient light. Absolutely love your content and have learned so much thank you!!

[@rustyvessel5086]

Lighting is not as important as you'd think. More or less it just gives them direction to grow towards. One 6500k led per tent would be sufficient...

[@teslabogger]

Where would I buy some of those 5lb boxes you were using from? I love the videos by the way.

[@sjewitt22]

I thought those oysters at 11:42 were sporing aren't you supposed to pick them earlier?

[@trippybird3682]

I am trying to get into top shelf, small scale, exotic only mushroom cultivation in hopes of making a modest side hustle or more, I know how to grow oysters, and cubes from when I was young, but I would love to know where you learned to grow your exotics. Things like enoki, namoke, wood ear etc are not easy to find for sale here so I really want to corner that quick before someone else does. Any resources are appreciated, and if no response keep making awesome vids =) Love

[@Wombatcan]

Awesome video as always! Is all your grow rooms at the same temperature? I'm trying to grow mushroom in a 4x4 tent in my garage but I'm not really sure what temp to set my garage. Thank you!

[@stir_stick]

He said in a prior video he keeps his warehouse at 70° F.

[@Wombatcan]

@@stir_stick Thank you very much!

[@asc556]

It depend on the kind of mushroom that you want to grow.

[@2HighNoon]

Having experience with micro climates growing medical marijuana is a real boon in skills for me. I totally agree the tents are the best way to go.

[@wayde5545]

even with the lights?

[@pumah96]

I’ve desired setting up a mushroom growing operation after fully developing & managing a safety program for a beef processing plant in Texas. You have one of the most informative channels on this subject matter that I have found and I saw this tent question, which is similar to my question, and have to ask... What size growing tents do you use? I appreciate you sharing the brand so that I may further my research. Additionally, how have you been preventing the condensation from damaging the lighting? At the plant, we had people who may condensation removal, their full time job. One of the 70 plus job tasks per day I had to do was go through every worker’s job task, create a job safety analysis for each task in the plant, and make sure that these met with the OSHA guidelines while making sure that each action the worker did was minimized to the safest & shortest steps possible... We had walls and surfaces that could be steam/chemical cleaned, and I was curious what you would upgrade to, outside of the grow tent, to make the cleaning job a more efficient process? I am a very big fan of your channel, subscribe, and enjoy greatly the information you produce as well as your enthusiasm towards your dream!

[@macrosense]

Do you do any experimenting with sawdust from different types of trees?

[@Melloshroom]

I have purchased several Gorilla tents after seeing them here. Mike, what size tents are you using, and for which purposes? Shelving dimentions?

[@deechi994]

If I may ask for the in-line fan, do you have just output or also intake of air into the grow tent ?

[@flaparoundfpv8632]

Which cardboard boxes are those, about 3/4 through the video?

[@mantaronline]

how about the size of bags? are they supposed to be rather big size? is there any "critical mass" for production size bags? or totally your own arbitrary choice?

[@mikemartin5938]

How come some time you slice the top and sometime the side ?

[@angelmadera2263]

Thanks ur the man can I any other than bleach to kill spores

[@surfsavage7514]

What temp do you keep inside the grow rooms?? I always see like a mist or fog in there. I read fruiting is best at between 55-60 degrees. Is this correct ?? And at what relative humidity is it in there. I'm looking to get my own tent for my new place soon

[@micamckenzie3674]

how often do you run your hummidifier?

[@naftalibendavid]

You da man!

[@Potsky_]

How do you dispose all the used plastics?

[@hydrosystem5187]

jajajajjaja i experimented with cheap tents too! the mushrooms spores started to germinate under the tent and that was it

[@hydrosystem5187]

i learn watching your videos this would had heped a lot

[@laziacoff503]

Do you ship to Canada. Any duty.

[@edgymushroom]

Is there any danger from spores while growing like this?

[@riverrat499]

Are you keeping your mushrooms refrigerated while waiting to move them to market or a restaurant?

[@toastybrown]

Yeah I believed he showed that in another video to improve the shelf life

[@harryallen4222]

What size bags are those blue oyster in/ substrate weight?

[@85mmonroe]

Looks like 10 pounders

[@ChrisParayno]

10-12lbs, check his other videos. He literally spells out his recipe suprisingly.

[@lordvenom4419]

Sir next time make king oyster mushroom.

[@Miller-Edward]

psilocybin-containing mushrooms are being researched for their potential benefits in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, and addiction

[@Rutibex]

lol I wonder what sort of mushroom you were growing in your bedroom

[@theminutemenreport8822]

🤙🤙🤙

[@andrewbieler4752]

I want to grow some mushrooms in my garage, what equipment do I need?

[@stiffy420]

truly an inspiration! you helped me a lot.

[@realrecognizefake8278]

Looks like your hair is touching the shrooms behind you bruh

[@antoniopacelli]

Bro give us recipes ! ! ! ! I cannot think that someone who have so many mushrooms doesn't know any way to eat them in different ways.... Cammon really?
