      Why not design a system bases on straw bales. I always wanted to get one big 500lb round. Set up a steamer and inoculate .... One could use cows to help with straw based mushies. I have goats that ate sum spent oyster bales and they grow when the conditions are right🎉🎉🎉

    I have a question about the straw bail method. Before seeing this video , I pondered if I could buy a bail of cut straw and inoculate it instead of bagging substrate. I tried to pasteurize the bag inside my 50gallon drum and buy boiling it with holes punched through. I wasn’t successful.. how do you guys perform this process without the need of removing the straw from the bags and keeping everything still intact?

      Hiya, might not be what you’re looking for but I read in a guide to bioremediation that you can submerge large amounts of substrate in water for a while (long enough so only anaerobic bacteria remains) and then drain the water off (exposing the anaerobic bacteria to air, killing them) to get a decently clean sub. Hope this helps :)

    I just discovered this and I was wondering, what do you think about the bottle method for people looking only to provide for their own consumption? Would it make sense? Also, if you wanted to grow mushrooms like Shiitake, can't you just lay the bottle on its side?

    • @Trixtah
      @Trixtah Před rokem +1

      Exactly. Also, there are decorative planters for pot plants that have openings all up the sides. The openings protrude from the sides a couple of centimetres, so I don't know why the concept can't be adapted to form the side openings for these grow bottles so they can have lids fitted for the initial inoculation period. Then there's all this stuff about how they're limited to a kilo of substrate - so make the bottles larger to take 5 kilos? Or base them on 20 litre food-quality plastic buckets.
      Obviously the machinery that's used commercially will need to be modified to deal with larger bottles and the side-opening lids, but I can't see how that'd be unsurmountable. Maybe the openings should have a nice flat flange around them, and automation to glue/heat-seal filters to them which can then be peeled off. That could happen immediately after the sterilisation step, with everything still hot. Also, with the complaints about inoculating substrate throughout, a multichannel pipette or similar could be plunged to the bottom and withdrawn in a spiral motion, dispensing a liquid culture. And so on and so forth.

Here in Colorado, small scale cannabis growers are completely wiped out by decriminalization. It looks like we may get 'shroom decriminalization, but various forcs are working hard to ensure it isn't mass produced, and less diversion onto the black market into states where it's not decriminalized.

    • @robrod7120
      @robrod7120 Před 2 lety +8

      You absolutely can depending on the species. Shiitake for example really tends to like a more dense substrate so doesn’t take all too well to chips (it still may work though with sterile chips.) Oysters and wine caps work well on loosely packed wood chips. To grow most wood lovers however you would want to fill the voids in between the chips with sawdust to make it easier for the mushrooms to colonize the whole substrate

      @John Parrish Yes like Rob Rod said you can definitely use hardwood chips as mushroom substrate...if they are small sized chips this would be ideal...if they are larger chip size you would want to mix with sawdust to create a better structure and provide more easily available nutrition for your mycelium to digest. Chips are also great for outdoor woodchip beds, like this: czcams.com/video/PIYWzfVW-ws/video.html

    What is the reason for no need to stabilise with heat when using bales? is it simply the type of mushroom being grown?

    • @GroCycleTV
      @GroCycleTV  Před rokem +1

      Hi Chris - when growing mushrooms such as Oyster and Lions Mane, as well as some of the more aggressive strains of Shiitake, pasteurising the substrate is fine - this knocks out MOST of the competing organisms. With less aggressive strains, you would need to sterilise, which is where the heat comes in. We grow the Low-Tech way and pasteurise, which is more sustainable, and much cheaper (less energy, less equipment).

    • @il3539
      @il3539 Před 2 lety +1

      @@601salsa Honestly not sure. I know most fruit and nut orchards in the US (I’m in Gulf Coast Texas) are monoculture and rely pretty heavily on pesticides and fungicides for reliable harvest. Could be some safety concerns since mushrooms tend to accumulate heavy metals from the soil as well as pesticides. Definitely a good idea for poly culture systems not reliant upon chemical inputs for pest control. Porcini do not grow down here but we have a very good chanterelle season(May-November) so that might be an option in my area. I only find them associated with oak trees in floodplain areas so the possibilities for combining them with other food producing species of trees might be limited.
      I replied the way I did because all the methods described in this video are for saprophytic species which are the most reliably cultivated mushrooms at a large scale for a variety of reasons: yield, time frame from inoculation to harvest, no reliance on seasonality unless you are growing outdoors, etc.
      I think there are a lot of possibilities for small scale or home producers with some acreage to experiment with different species in a poly culture setting like you describe.

    • @JackGilbertJr
      @JackGilbertJr Před rokem +1

      1) there is a difference between pasteurization and sterilization. What pasteurization you were only heating the substrate to 180° over the course of 1 to 2 hours. With sterilization you are superheating the substrate to around 250° over the course of 2 to 3 hours. The former does not kill all of the bacteria in the substrate while the lighter kills everything. The purpose in this is because to grow high-yield flushes of some mushrooms you need to add nutrients. If you add nutrients to pasteurized substrate, you’re going to get contamination. This contamination will likely outgrow the mycelium.
      2) in order to sterilize you’re going to need to be able to fit your substrate bags into a pressure cooker. Whatever you use to hold the substrate will have to be of a PP5 quality plastic in order to not melt or completely fall apart. The mushroom bags that people use for mushroom substrate or made of a PP5 plastic that can resist high temperatures. This allows for sterilization of the substrate, and removal from the PCU without contamination.

      @@violettracey I'll be testing it myself beginning sometime over the next several months. I've sourced some 1 ft x 1 ft food-grade buckets (formerly used when the store ordered bulk peanut butter), that I'm wondering if they can be used to make "fruiting blocks" instead of using the bags, which I would then turn into the larger standard-sized buckets people seem to use. Or possibly grow directly from those small buckets, after drilling holes in them (GroCycle has a post on their website about this), which are uncovered when the bucket is fully colonized, to bring on fruiting conditions. I understand it can likely be done in larger buckets, but I want to see if it can be done in smaller, because 1) my growing space is small, so I would like a more frequent turnover as far as colonization and flushes, if you get me, and 2) The buckets would otherwise be sent to recycle or to landfill (just like the bags would), which I'm trying to eliminate, so by using "waste" buckets, there's no waste at all. :)
