I want to help everyone from the single parent to the budding entrepreneur learn how to effectively cultivate mushrooms and Fungi. In 2019 I founded The Humble Fungus - a “spore-to-table” mushroom farm and mycology laboratory and supply business. During those 3 years I learned more than I had in the previous decade.
Unfortunately, like most of us in the industry, I learned most of it the hard way, through trial and error and tears. Massive failures, contamination, tons of equipment, lack of automation, buying a million tools only to realize they don’t work. Before closing The Humble Fungus, I had grown the business to over 6 figures of revenue, built and sold sterilizers, fruiting beautiful mushrooms and had a genetics library containing over 200 culinary, medicinal and therapeutic mushrooms.
No matter your skill level - from a home cultivator growing on a counter, those just beginning to those running at scale grows looking just to improve, you'll learn!

Thanks for the explanation!
Helps a lot. Question: after the mycelium start to pin, if I add Oxygen to the tub (I mean not 100% o2, but something above 21%, like 25~30%), the mushrooms will grow much less? Thanks!
Thank you, i have a ton a side pins and bottom pins even on the one tub i didnt use a lid on and another tub with liner that has only one mushrooms pinning like wtf just one no other pins at all im just mind blown hasn't happened to me b4. Bags are going great, and the tub with the grain all in one spot in the center with no liner, that experiment doing well
Thank you for the tips for the pressure cooker! Boom! 🎉
i need help. it looks like orange fish eggs. i used golden teacher spore syringe.
Can I just tape the black plastic outside of the tub, instead of putting it inside?
you could make it into 10 minutes ...
Great idea about the direct injection of the water. How much would you inject? Thanks for the info
You did a video on rehydrating the block by injecting 60mls. When is this done? After 1st harvest or 2nd. I'm using bagtek and fruiting in a tent with 88-90% humidity
We get it bro, you own a pressure cooker
Right
What did I do for this guy to explain this to me the way he does.
That was dead set the best tutorial I've watched on how and why mushrooms form and grow. Thank you brother
Does anyone know what temp and humidity do Ssks mushrooms need? I keep failing I need expert advice I’m doing the grow bag plant and forget method
Bro is giving tutorial videos in an interrogation room
Excellent. I'm going to give it a go! Thanks.
3:17 I found the best way to make holes in the tub is to get a handheld butane torch, a set of vice grips, and a small round cookie cutter of whatever diameter you want. Hold cookie cutter with vice grips, heat until glowing, then melt a hole straight through. This process leaves a nice clean hole with next to no dags to trim. Just do it outside or under a fume hood as those fumes can't be good for the ol' lungs.

you're funny haha

You’re Amazing man sorry the company didn’t work out
ok i get it but my question is can i make it without flow hood cause im ,,hobbyst,, ?
What's the brand of your millet bag? Thank you!
Still waiting on part 3...
is it necessary for sealing to fill the pressure cooker with bags horizontally? i wonder if i can try this out with two bags instead of six in my 23qt canner. thank you for this technique.
Incredibly helpful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Kind of a prick to be a learning tutorial
the sides didn't seal for me
I must have missed it, but was the millet you used hulled, or unhulled?
Thank you Jesse.
Knowledgeable and digestible. The best hands down.
Where should you store it if you dont have a fruiting chamber
Just get air flow humidity and light as much as possible without a chamber
Can you do that to any grow bag??
Has anybody tried with lentis instead of brown rice ?
Finally someone who explains all of this. Thank you!
The cutting technique would only be for your environment, right you couldn’t do that for a bookshelf or your counter because I would lead to contamination correct?
What should I do if my grow bags look like they colonising
But bro I don’t have a fruiting chamber. Can I keep my bag sealed away from contamination any way? Just mixed up my mycelium and waiting for it to fully colonise. I know I’m late but I’m always late 😂
1 month old comment, where did you end up storing them and how did they turn out? I'm about to attempt my first ever grow here in a few days when rest of supplies get here. Ive been watching tons of videos and reading reddit to try and get some tips. Im thinking of storing mine in my closet but idk forsure. I'm going to be trying 2 different all in 1 bags and 2 uncle bens bags all from the same 10CC spore syringe. I'm thinking 4 CCs in each of the all in one bags and 1CC in each of the uncle bens. After doing more research I'm regretting not going with liquid culture route right out of the gate but oh well I'm just gonna go on and attempt it.
Some great ideas there thanks!
This is great, but I've tried it and I'm finding my bags/millet are getting wet rot after a week or so? I'm only using 400ml of water to 1kg of millet the bags are coming out like in the vid completely sealed up, I end up sealing them and mixing them up to spread the moisture in there and some parts sweat and eventually start to rot. Any ideas?
How much longer are your colonization times with the smaller filters vs the point 5 microns?
You explain the when and why like nobody else.❤
Dude, you are freaking hilarious but the most informative. How’s that?! Sub
Thank you so, very much for sharing all of this highly valuable information. I am a novice mycologist and spent more than 6 months just researching and throughly studying prior to finally diving in with my first grow. Having decided to go big with my first grow, I have been really anxious to see great results. I’d initially decided to cut a large monotub recipe down to about 1/5 the recommended size. I really would’ve regretted having to throw all of this out due to contamination. Again, I appreciate your help so much!
_This_ is the video I was looking for. I wish I could like this twice
You cleaned the station and put your elbow on top of the table 😂😂😂
Who did you think was turning the plants' excess byproduct of oxygen into breathable co2 before animals came about? The earth would blow up or lose all habitability if oxygen levels increase too much. Mushrooms apparently didnt cut it, so here we are
