This video had to be re-uploaded due to a music rights issue. The original video was muted so this one doesn’t contain music, only my voice. Trying to keep this information available to everyone! 🍄

Appreciate the re up, as I ordered some cordy spores from you and need to use them.

[@johnbathory9559]

Thank you

Really enjoying your videos. Chefs kiss. I have to try this before the temps get to high. Thanks for your work.

Fantastic video! I absolutely love Cordyceps. Really hoping to see some fresh in person someday.

Hello, how can I order mycelium? I live in Germany, asty store, they write when placing an order that there is no delivery in Germany...​@@SporenSprout

[@matejzabojnik4624]

Thank you! Great tutorial! :)

[@gllmusic]

I love how simple these are to grow. I would normally expand mycelium to other substrate like coco coir. Never imagined you could fruit them right in the jar. It's great that cordyceps don't require a lot of fresh air exchange. I run a 6k bulb I'm thinking that should work rather than blue LED's. Also I'm not sure if the three day incubation period is even needed if the light is indirect. I stopped putting mycelium in the dark and find I get less overlay and better grows overall. My flow hood is a lot smaller than yours so I want to try fruiting in shoe box size tubs.

[@SporenSprout]

Yeah the dark period is specifically for cordyceps.

[@Dumptodigs]

You are absolutely the man!

[@SporenSprout]

Thanks for watching! 🍄

[@angelahughes7825]

Thank you. This is the clearest video I've seen yet. I'd like to use the box method but I do not have a flow hood. Can it be done? How high would you say the risk of contamination is?

[@samjones9600]

Depends on your environment, you can use a still air box to mitigate risk. Also an air purifier helps.

[@waynegreenway5445]

I noticed you have another L.C. recipe you also use. 1/64 tsp DME and 1/64 tsp Peptone. Do you also use this Cordyceps? Do you have the weights of the ingredients?

[@Howwerelivingfishing]

Just a suggestion but add some background music or sounds. Idk if it’s just me but it messes with my head when there’s no noise 😂 great instructions though I’d love to try growing these after I get the basics down.

[@SporenSprout]

Here is the original video which literally was muted because of having background music. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g3LGhauhZZ1opa8si=kwKzi0p5NjwAtzoq

[@Howwerelivingfishing]

@@SporenSprout dang lol did it glitch and not put in the voice audio? I’ve had weird things like that happen while rendering videos. Sucks when it happens because you’ve already got your video finished and ready by that point.

[@SporenSprout]

@@Howwerelivingfishing No it was a copyright problem. The music was safe to use and I gave credit like I was supposed to and like many months later I got a copyright strike for no reason and was forced to mute the video including my voice. The tutorial is very important to a lot of people so I re uploaded it the best I could.

[@user-vi2qs5wu3f]

the led has to be cold white, hot white or neuter white? and how many Lumens do you recomend? thanks, excelente video, the best

[@cestlaviehappner1872]

Do you have an electric heater for your pressure cooker

[@SporenSprout]

Yeah one of my sterilizers is electric but you can definitely just use a presto 23 quart pressure cooker.

[@edtoka638]

the substrate can only grow 1 batch of mushrooms ?

[@SporenSprout]

Sometimes you can get 2 harvests

[@jasonstaral7683]

Should I mist while fruiting

[@SporenSprout]

No

[@brayanignacio5828]

How much yield do you have in the tub?

[@SporenSprout]

Around 2 ounces dried

[@sheyanpatel4984]

Hey I just wanted to know the dry weight yield for the tub and the jar

[@SporenSprout]

The tub harvest is around 2 ounces dry, the jar harvest is usually around 7 grams dry

[@daCHuNKY1]

12:13 to avoid the mycelium to replicate excessively: could you pls expand on this?

[@jasonstaral7683]

Should u use distilled water or ro water

[@SporenSprout]

Ro water is good

[@ImPsychosocial5]

Where did you get your lights from? I’m struggling to find lights that are just red and blue, let alone a light that’s 1 part blue and 2 parts red.

[@SporenSprout]

Here are the ones I use: amzn.to/4agJcw7

[@ImPsychosocial5]

Thank you, I appreciate the help, especially the quick response. Great video by the way.

[@user-yq8he1hu6m]

Please tell me do you use pure isopropyl alcohol or dilute it?

[@SporenSprout]

You can use 70% or 99%

how do you incubate it below 70? The only place in my house that gets that cold is the refrigerator. lol people who keep their homes below 75 are crazy. my thermo stays at 78

[@johnwestlake4150]

That's funny, because I think anyone that keeps their house above 70º is crazy, lol. Different strokes for different folks.

Honey!? Honey has antifungal properties and your slowing your progress doing so.theres acids in honey that slow your growth. Just trying to help.,happy growing

[@SporenSprout]

@@williamdevlin5439 diluted honey does not have antifungal properties

[@williamdevlin5439]

I beg to differ tge acids are still present just diluted. Try Karo corn syrup. My results show its faster than honey diluted.trust me I been experimenting since the 90s before we had all this wonderful internet information.

[@SporenSprout]

@@williamdevlin5439 Sounds like you haven’t even used honey. I’ll be sticking with honey lol I have 1000s of honey jars growing full, 20 different species.

[@williamdevlin5439]

It don't sound like I used honey!? It was an issue early in my plates. I've been doing this since the 90s I'm not new to it and I don't give advise unless I used it myself. I didn't say it wouldn't work I just said it's slower.im 47 not a post adolescent know it all ,I was just adding insight.remember ALL of us are constantly learning and I still watch guys to see if there's something new as I've found MANY ideas and like everything I experiment and record and honest with myself on the results.As accomplished as I Am I'm humble enough to know there's always a better way and that's why I watch you guys.But I probly forgot more than you have learned I have Sooo many experiments over the Years ( yes some with honey) my brain will freeze up trying g to think of them all.

[@SporenSprout]

@@williamdevlin5439 I apologize if I came off rude and I appreciate the insight, I just find it crazy for me to trade honey for corn syrup. Honey is basically the cornerstone of my business. I have used corn syrup and other nutrients such as LME and peptone. I have my reasons for keeping honey as the main ingredient in my liquid cultures. Corn syrup creates a nice clear LC media but the mycelium stays weak and does not produce a lot of mycelium in LC. LME + peptone creates mycelium that is knotted and too thick. Honey creates thick full mycelium that is more easily broken up by the magnetic stir bar and doesn’t need to be stirred as frequently. Those are the reasons I use honey.

[@rhb30001]

You stopped your other LC favorite recipe using the peptides?? You are only using honey…

[@SporenSprout]

Nah the original video of this was made before that video. This is just a repost of the original which was muted.

thanks for the answer, but why is that? @@SporenSprout

[@SporenSprout]

@@user-vi2qs5wu3f Because in both methods, the rice is cooked.

[@user-vi2qs5wu3f]

well, the first answer wasn right .... WTF @@SporenSprout

[@SporenSprout]

@@user-vi2qs5wu3f the rice is cooked in the pressure cooker in one method and the rice is cooked in the rice cooker in the other method. In both methods the rice is cooked. You could be more thorough with your questions if you want better answers.
