Talked to the farmer there and they create inoculated plugs that they then place into holes drilled into the logs.

      @@darkhelmet12e47 fungi are surprisingly sensitive at times. Also, the fruiting bodies of fungi (mushrooms) decay at insane rates. You have mere days to harvest, distribute, and sell these mushrooms, and they essentially decompose by the second. In some truffle species, I believe they literally lose value by the hour as well and even start tasting worse in that time (and truffles cannot be cultivated like this). Any mushrooms which aren’t sold in that time are losses these small homegrown farmers have to cut. Some species like the aforementioned truffle and the matsutake ONLY grow under the most perfect of conditions as mycorrhizal fungi with plants, and some ONLY symbiosis with one type of plant in particular. Its really impossible for us randos in the youtube comment section to understand just how difficult it is to grow these strange, complex organisms in our homes, and in my opinion its a bit brash to jump to conclusions about the craft without first doing it ourselves with the same species.

      Us Slovaks love our mushrooms, but we generally forage them. Mushroom foraging is passed from generation to generation, like which mushrooms you can eat, which are poisonous, which grow where and when etc. I learned mushroom foraging from my grand grandma, she was 87, we grabbed handmade baskets and strolled around the forest the day after a heavy rain. We got back with our baskets and pockets full of mushrooms of at least a dozen edible species. We spent the whole evening cutting them into thin strips to dry and store them. Every time I make a creamy mushroom soup from dried mushrooms, all I think about is my time I spent with her. If I ever have any descendands, mushroom foraging is one of the things I want to teach them. I really don't know why, but it just feels magical, everything from strolling through the forests, the smell of the fresh mushrooms, the time spent with family. My eyes are getting wet, someone's cutting onions in here.

    Since your videos are practically scientific food journals sometimes, it should then be worthwhile to point out that the steaming at 95 C and atmospheric presure *disinfects* the substrate, not sterilize.

    14:10 mushrooms are great bioaccumulators. They sequester heavy metals in specific proteins, which renders them completely harmless and allows mushrooms to survive even in very polluted areas. Of course this also means you have to be careful where you go foraging, since the heavy metals are released again once you eat the mushrooms ^^

      This is on the wikipedia page of the flag :
      Use as a libertarian symbol
      In the 1970s the Gadsden flag started being used by libertarians, using it as a symbol representing individual rights and limited government.[5] The libertarian Free State Project uses a modified version of the flag with the snake replaced with a porcupine, a symbol of the movement.[17][unreliable source?]
      Use as a Tea Party symbol
      Beginning in 2009, the Gadsden flag became widely used as a protest symbol by American Tea Party movement protesters.[18][19][20] It was also displayed by members of Congress at Tea Party rallies.[21] In some cases, the flag was ruled to be a political, rather than a historic or military, symbol due to the strong Tea Party connection.[22]
      Gadsden Flag flown in the area of riots during the January 6th, 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol.
      Use as a far-right symbol
      The Gadsden Flag has also been used as a symbol by far-right groups and individuals.[23] In 2014, the flag was used by Jerad and Amanda Miller, the perpetrators of the 2014 Las Vegas shootings who killed two police officers and a civilian.[24] The Millers reportedly placed the Gadsden Flag on the corpse of one of the officers they killed.[25][26]
      The Gadsden flag was featured prominently in a report related to the January 6, 2021 storming of the United States Capitol. Thirty-four-year-old Rosanne Boyland was carrying one when she collapsed from an accidental drug overdose and died in the Capitol.[27][28]

    love the research you do on these, all the jargon is spot on coming from someone who dabbles in growing mushrooms

    I have grown a few different types from kits and messed around with cultivation. It’s a lot more work than it looks. But so cool. So rewarding.

    The style of their packaging and the guy's looks make it seem like they grow some more... interesting mushrooms.
