Thinking of trying this with a double bucket to avoid the bags. the normal drilled bucket with a second unmodified bucket on the outside for the soak time. Simply keep the outer bucket there for 2 weeks to contain the water, then remove it and hang the drilled pail over night to drain. stir in the grain spawn and done. Thanks for the inspiration to not need to spread in the sun like Stamets. if this gets contam problems I'd probably try the intermediary step of spreading out.

did you have success? i plan on trying this technique for golden teachers, you think if i use horse or cow manure to do it, would it be more likely to contaminate than woody substrates ? or should i try another substrate for GT, maybe straw with some Manure?
@thechaosgardener4 ай бұрын
@danni4213 yeah I harvested like 20 lbs of winecaps last year by using this to expand a 5lb bag of spawn to around 100 lbs and inoculate an acre of mulch (around 100 cubic yards). Only one of my 10 beds fruited but I calculate I should be able to harvest more winecaps this year than I can possibly use :) I’m probably way too excited about them. Ironically I’m the only person in my family who likes eating mushrooms. I don’t know if this would work for golden teachers because the substrate is obviously a lot richer with (manure etc) than arborist mulch so the contaminate risk is higher. I would try it small scale and let me know.

@@danni4213 It depends on what you are growing, some species are wood lovers, some are poo lovers. GT's etc are the latter, idk if people have much luck with those outside though. I'm waiting for spring to do outdoor for the first time with this method.

I think I got my mycelium form a company called Henosis. I didn’t think it worked because it took almost a year before I saw my first winecaps. It doesn’t fruit until it finishes colonizing like 90% of the available biomass and I had so much woodchips it took forever

Yes! That’s how Stamets did it. I was just trying to simplify the process and not have to move anything and also I didn’t have a drum at the time. I realize now there’s a place a mile away that gives empty food grade metal drums away for $10 so I got a couple.

@@thechaosgardener another thing I've considered (but I'm no mushroomer) is to use the diversity principle of mixed cover crops in a mushroom context. Diversity always wins. You couldn't control for which mushroom you'd get, but I think if you inoculated a bag with ten species instead of one, you'd have a more resilient grow that would use all the nutrients at its disposal.
