Started button mushrooms growing experiment in straw bale, with past due store mushrooms.
A lot of new mycelium growth in my wine caps bucket.
Not pictured - the rehydrated chanterelle parts put underneath our large cedar tree & morels that I put at base of one crabapple tree with chipped crabapple wood/leaf mulch with charged biochar.

10 days after starting to grow blue oysters & wine caps in a cardboard box & a plastic bucket. Both containers have healthy mycelium growing atop now. I should start seeing the first pinheads in about 2 weeks.

Prep for my multiple mushrooms growing experiment - using an unsterilized straw bale.
I enjoy food growing experiments 😊👩🌾

I've had a couple of stressful days & am working on more gardening therapy today. I'll update more, later on.
I spent the morning taking apart my mini chainsaw to clean & replace saw blade. Unsuccessful with getting new blade on properly - it's too loose. I'll get back to it later & figure it out.
I used our dolly to move this straw bale for a combo backyard mushrooms growing experiment. Trying out no sterilization of straw & grow both oyster & wine caps out of same bale.
I'm skipping the cover the bale with a tarp because it's placed in a spot where it's shady & gets little sunlight. Light is similar to dappled forest & is minimal in the spot that I chose to do this multiple mushrooms growing experiment.
All my other mushrooms growing stations used sterilized straw. I'm interested in seeing how this unsterilized straw bale does. I watered it for about 20 minutes to ensure the entire bale is moist enough to start putting fungi cultures/mycelium into. I'll keep updating on how this experiment goes.

I'm setting up two perennial oyster mushrooms growing beds, tomorrow.
There's some mycelium visible in one hole on my blue oyster mushrooms grow bucket. I'll update with photos when there's more visible growth.
Some delighted participants with their take home blue oyster mushrooms grow buckets. Lots of smiles & great energy shared at the mushrooms growing workshop, this afternoon ✌️🙂

Our mushrooms growing workshop sold out fast. There's going to be another mushrooms growing workshop, in the Fall. All the participants today, were delighted to make their own blue oysters grow bucket to take home.
Our next workshop at the community orchard is a fruit tree grafting workshop - which is sold out with a waiting list.

My #ChestnutMushrooms are doing real well so far. I've cut away the plastic from sides to let it breathe better. No bad molds spotted so far. Just lots of good #mycelium that's created these baby #edible #mushrooms 😊
Day 10 fungi growth.

dont look like much, but a lot goes into mushroom farming!
to get consistient results we control:
1, temp
2, humidity
3, light levels and duaration
4, fresh air exchange
then like an orchestra, they all have to pulse in a specific rythem and maintain exacting conditions for weeks to get results

here are some King Trumpet pins coming along, I grow these slowly, taking 2 weeks to pin and another 2 weeks from here to harvest, individual mushrooms can top 1/2# each
#mushrooms #growmushrooms
New grows of chestnut mushroom, looking good, at 3 weeks in, showing some colored metabolite and sweating going on in the sac

Update on #shiitake #growmushrooms trial project
Strain 3782 Vrs 3790
a few observations, 3790 seems slightly less virulent, however growth is more uniform and colinization of substrate appears more thurough, 3782 progresses straight into skin formation stage prior to full colinization
Right now I estimate that an additional 2 weeks more than the 3782 needed for strain 3790 to completely brown its skin, we will see
#mycology
Latest spawn runs here
on the right we have chestnut mushroom at 2 weeks post noc
on the left is my first run of Shiitake 3790. I have been growing strain 3782 for 5 years now and I hear good things about this new strain. The sample here is only 3 days post noc

Off season inside Reishi grow progressing nicely

OH, that explains it... King Oyster are a top fruiting variety, they never like to fruit out of holes.
They prefer to remove the lid or bag and have about 20% of the surface area exposed
is this your first grow?
