How To CULTIVATE And HARVEST Mushrooms

[@GoombaGrows]

Wanted to add that I no longer support max yield bins because of the recent nonsense going on in the community with them and MICROPPOSE. If you weren’t aware already, Max Yield has decided to try and trademark MICROPPOSE before the true owner (Daniel) had the chance. This is super shady business and personally I regret taking my business to Max Yield in the first place. I have since became an affiliate with MICROPPOSE and soon you will see his new bins and products on my channel! This video was recorded prior to me being aware of the shady business that Max Yield was involved in. With that being said it appears that the application to trade mark MICROPPOSE from max yield bin INC has since been abandoned and it looks like for the most part everything has been resolved in that aspect. MICROPPOSE bins are great quality and I would argue that they are better than Max Yield Bins in every aspect from quality, to features to price. tmsearch.uspto.gov/search/search-results --this is the link if you would like to look into the trademark scandal going on (search MICROPPOSE).

That's all I use is microppose, fucc max yield and their overpriced bs fr.

[@GoombaGrows]

Couldn't agree more!@@SporeWhore661

[@deej7783]

They are over priced anyway ill use my cloner and make my own bin for 19.99💯👊💯

[@geekreek6596]

Boomr bin

[@austinhardwood]

I have both. I've used Max Yield Ben and I just started using Micropose. I haven't fruiteded yet, but my question is technical maxyield bin has a bunch of holes at the bottom unlike micro pose. What do you think? Do you think those small holes at the bottom are necessary? Have you had any success without them?

[@aaronrobles9590]

Thank-you for the footage. You are very helpful ..much love brotha

@@aaronrobles9590 thank you for watching 😁

@GoombaGrows oh , bro . My grow is popping off. I just need patients . Grateful 🙏

[@mattb6646]

I have my very first bag of grain spawning mycelium on the bottom, its so exciting been checking it everyday lol

[@GoombaGrows]

Right!! Every time I get home from work I check on everything. I’d like to think growing mushrooms is better than having a kid 😅😁

[@CarpeDiemXXX]

Welcome back! Great vid!

[@GoombaGrows]

Thank you! :)

[@joshhawn3988]

You need to make more videos man, make some TAT vids

[@deej7783]

Really enjoy your content bro. I have a about 85% grain bag otw from a buddy he helped me get started. Im going to use a cloning bin but following all your steps wish me luck💯👊💯😊😊

[@GoombaGrows]

Excited for you, wishing you the best of luck on your future grows :)

[@montuckyhomegrown]

Also you can buy iso 70 in 1-5 gallon jugs its much cheaper then

[@GoombaGrows]

Very good point !

[@davidayers5173]

How did you prepare for the 2nd flush

[@montuckyhomegrown]

Soak the trich with hydrogen peroxide and soak up with papertowel

[@austinhardwood]

Hey man great work. You solved my contamination issue because I was doing two bags per one bag of grain. 👍🏽. By the way, the ben that had contamination in it where the mushrooms less potent?

[@GoombaGrows]

I’m glad to hear my video was able to help you out 😁 when it comes to spawn and sub ratios it is very touchy. I have found that some strains/ genetics can handle a 1:4 spawn to sub ratio. While others will struggle even with a 1:1. Also I don’t believe the mushrooms are affected at all when the bin is contaminated. Dont quote me on that though as I am not 100% sure what the science is behind it.

[@juancruzrodriguez8676]

Good job! Congratulations👏 from Argentina!! Is jack frost genetic?

[@spiet7380]

Thanks for pointing that out! I wasn't paying attention lol😅 This is one of the strains I'd bought from ITW or Inoculate the world online. It's a cross between PE (penis envy) and TAT (True Albino teacher). I'm going to have to watch this again now! 😅

[@andrewmunn7371]

Can you add what temperature you used for each phase please! Thank you

[@GoombaGrows]

I will absolutely add that next time thanks for the feedback 😁

[@deej7783]

You should include the name of strain your working with. Beautiful what are they white albino 🤣🤣👊👊💯

[@GoombaGrows]

I’d love to but KZbin can be picky sometimes sadly. I’m just thankful I haven’t had to cut the caps off yet like I’ve seen other KZbinrs do. If you would like to know the species I’m growing feel free to head over to my instagram!

[@TheBigKumar]

where did u get that dab rig in the right corner?

[@GoombaGrows]

I don’t remember the exact website but the brand is neu glass. I know they have quite a few pieces for a good price. Good eyes haha

[@jamesblackledge5601]

I have one that smells fermented too did u ever find out what that was?

[@GoombaGrows]

Just some form of bacterial contamination. It can come in many forms, I found the most common is cobweb mold and trichoderma but there are quite a few others!

[@romflora3574]

Where did you buy your bag of grain?

[@GoombaGrows]

@@romflora3574 I get all of my substrate, grain and all in one bags from Olympus myco these days if I’m not making them myself. If you use code GG10 you also get 10% off your entire order :). Hopefully In the near future I will release my own website where I plan to sell grain bags as well!

[@derekmatthews662]

I've started a tub and it started colonization then stopped I'm not exactly sure if it's something I did wrong or some contamination but it smells and looks fine it just stopped colonizing

[@Michael-2112-]

Total noob here so may seem like a dumb question, did you just ignore the contamination? Like did you Chuck the fruit growing out of, or around it? I’m very interested to know, thanks!

[@GoombaGrows]

Yessir, I decided to let the grow continue to see where it went. The fruits that come from this bin are still 100% edible. Most definitely though need to be careful when it comes to trich as it can be very irritable for family members and pets if they have sensitive lungs and immune systems. The spores can linger in the air and get into your growing area and living spaces. You also can notice cons such as much lower yield than normal when your bins are contaminated.

[@lsbzcuz]

in the video you dump 1 colonize bag and 1 substrate bag into the bin correct?

[@GoombaGrows]

Yes! One 3lb bag of colonized grain and one 5lb bag of sterilized substrate.

[@winter9753]

Do you leave the bits of substrate on the basis of the mushrooms? I don't wanna eat dirt haha

[@GoombaGrows]

No sir! I take some clean scissors and snip the bottom off before dehydrating. :)

[@winter9753]

@@GoombaGrows Figured as much :) I have one more question. I want to start growing shrooms in a monotub soon, and rn all I have is a small pre-prepared kit (very basic stuff pre-colonized etc). Can I use the colonized substrate of the kit to innoculate some fresh substrate for my monotub, even though it has been fruiting several times already? Thanks!!

[@excelself]

2:10 Oh crud… I forgot to shake my jars 🫙.

[@leeball2411]

How much in dried weight would that amount too?

[@brian3739]

Do you mist when u see primordia?

[@GoombaGrows]

Good question! For the first flush I will try to avoid misting so I don’t over hydrate. Sometimes though if I don’t see enough water beads on the surface I will give it a light spray of water with my aerosol mister to assist with more mushroom growth.

[@jonathanlallo4920]

Misting after hyph with ape is a bad idea, they are prone too abort so letting them run is always best. Honestly misting is very nessecary, its the evap. That promots primordial knots. But everyone needs to find what works best, for them and the strain.

[@megnicole4286]

It's it me..or did you use a black and white filter? 😅

[@brucetheshroom9973]

Get MICROPPOSE to sponsor your channel. Those aholes at MaximumYield are trying to steal the MICROPPOSE trademark.

[@GoombaGrows]

Ive been hearing about the nonsense going on between the two companies. I find it super shady that max yield thought it was a good idea to try and trademark MICROPPOSE before they even had the chance too. I actually just about a month or so back got a care package from MICROPPOSE, that included some of their products and I am a huge fan. The bins are great and come at a great price too. They also have innovative features that are simple to implement like hole plugs instead of having to tape them off every grow like you do with max yields. Wonder why max yield is so worried about microppose… it seems pretty clear to me. I will make some videos showcasing MICROPPOSE products in the very near future. Use code GOOMBAGROWS for 10% your entire order :)

[@brucetheshroom9973]

You’re a good man and glad to see you doing the right thing! 👍👍👍

[@A.lex.is_]

i just put a mycelium spawn jar that was made in 2022 into substrate. my nerves

[@GoombaGrows]

Best of luck!! I had two colonized bags that were colonizing for about 4 months spawned to bulk. Both were sadly contaminated but I feel like the substrate was actually the problem this time. The bags looked totally fine and smelled normal

[@kitc1031]

Awesome grow! 3% peroxide works well on trichoderma. Sending you IG message later. 😊

[@alexiadavila898]

How does it work? Do you put a few drop in the substrate before colonizing or directly on the the contaminated part after colonizing

[@GoombaGrows]

I believe you just spray it on in a spray bottle around the contaminated area. I have yet to test this but I have seen others receive success using this method

[@deej7783]

Dude i had the same thing happen my very first time. Colonization went amazing spawn to bulk great. Pins then nothing stalled and eventually i opened and it smelled like idk lol. Nothing i could see just some bruising. Anyway just dumped it in the yard today. Starting over lol

[@megnicole4286]

Do NOTTT toss mycelium outside! It will LITERALLY take over your ENTIRE eco system. The LARGEST living creature on the planet is a giant mycelium network in Oregon. As matter of fact...people being so uneducated on mycelium being it's OWN kingdom and will take over..is why it will never be legal like cannabis. Because you will literally toss it on the ground if it goes bad. The mycelium doesn't die when contaminated...it THRIVES outside. And nature will kill the contaminated cells and it will continue to thrive under ground.DO NOT DO THIS!!!

[@montuckyhomegrown]

Sad you should have just re hydrated the cake

[@deej7783]

@montuckyhomegrown yeah this was a few months ago my very first spawn to bulk, it had many harvests since 💯👊

[@bencedeak1854]

Where did your channel name came from? In my language gomba (one o) means mushroom

[@GoombaGrows]

It’s a play off the little mushroom guys from Mario haha

[@bencedeak1854]

Ahh right idk why it didnt came to my mind

[@teddybear1829]

What’s a true casing layer compared to what you did here? Il subscribe after you’ve answered 😅

[@GoombaGrows]

A true casing is applied after your substrate is 100% colonized and is peat-based. If timed correctly, the mushrooms should push up through the casing layer from the substrate beneath. Ideally casing layer should not fully colonize. When using a pseudo casing layer you are simply topping the cake with the same substrate you used to spawn to bulk. This in turn creates a better microclimate and keeps moisture retained. But it is most certainly not a true casing layer. Usually you want your casing layer to be fully non nutritious so instead of consuming the casing layer the mycelium will just colonize the casing layer. This is just from what I have learned so far and is my best understanding of the differences.

[@lukeblizzard5909]

Pack your edges nice and tight, like start with no spawn just substrate and pack it into the corners then along the edges. Spawn to bulk without mixing your packed edges into the spawn ... Repack the corners and edges tight as you level it off... Pseudo case and you guessed it. Pack your corners again and along the edge real tight. You'll reduce and or eliminate side pinning.
