What a great video. My early teen years were spent working farms for three bucks an hour. I came to despise loading hay. Much respect to this man. The intelligent young lady also reminded me of my younger years. I had a steady craving for the citrus-like sorrel. Eaten straight out of hand or with a salad of dandelion leaves and whatever else I could find. I think I'll make one now that spring is here.

YOu just make an agar plate cut some tissue from the mushroom put it on the agar,. let it grow. then you can use that mycelium that grows to put in spawn bags and multiply and grow it. You just need to do it in a still air box or infront of a flow hood, they are very easy to do.

This is incredible, for over a year now, I've wanted to get into growing lion's mane, I'm going to start on growing them now, but I recently found out that a lot of edible mushrooms are incredibly good for our health, our immune systems, some even helps the good bacteria in the human body, now I kinda want to grow all kinds of different mushrooms for everyone :) I'll start with lion's mane and button mushrooms, soon after that, oyster mushrooms.

Bird was great! Very knowledgeable, well-spoken and comfy in front of the camera. Cutie too.

[@TerryMcGearyScotland]

This is a great detailed video. I have a biology background so I could follow what was going on. I have grown many fungi in solid (and liquid) culture in my time including on an orbital incubator that was swishing the conical flask culltures around. I love doing all that stuff, loads of fun. Weirdest culture medium was porridge agar (well I am in Scotland!) to grow a specific fungal parasite of strawberries. I tell a lie! The strangest has to be a soaking wet paperback book and some toilet rolls to grow ( I think) Oyster or Shitake mushrooms. :-) I have been looking at the heaps of chipped trees and bushes left behind by tree surgeons and wondering could these chips be sterilised and used for culturing mushrooms? This video has just encouraged me! PLus the plant girl really knows her stuff. I have tried wood sorrel and a few other things like pignut. Great video as I said.

fungus has to fight back bacteria and yeast in the wild, if you give them the perfect environnement a bit of contaminations is alright. you could do it witout any pasterisation and you would still get some (it would obviously lower your sucess rate)
