- Stop paying all kinds of money on sterilized grain bags and instead buy a dozen pint jars and use cheap, CHEAP popcorn instead. For this Tek you don't need a pressure cooker for sterilization.
ENJOY
i realy like that you share your background story as well. also after researching for weeks now, since i only want to grow for myself and only cullinary and medicinal....not the fun shrooms, i realised all the sterile hype etc is for comercial growing. less can work, and not all lab materials or hoodflows etc are nedded. so your method speaks to my needs. will atually start my first batch of oysters in a week. need stock up on jars and wait for lc to arrive etc.
Thanks a lot, the whole point of my channel is indeed to encourage people to grow for personal use. All you need is a spray bottle of bleach and water and some isopropyl alcohol band your gtg. By the way oysters are my favorite to grow, they are so interesting.
@@mycopsycho3130 so pretty too!!
Do you use a Sterile Lab Box? Or oven tek?
Myco Psycho Thanks for posting this golden egg! I appreciate you taking the time to do so! All the best to ya!
Thanks for your support!!! I really enjoy spreading the message 🍄🫠👍
If you are old school and know some history to any of how we all got to where we are. Thatd be cool to toss some stories in to your instructional vids. Im all about learning the cheapest and easiest way for good results. Subscribed.
Right on thanks for the support, I'll try to share a little of what I know.
Thanks for the support, I'll try to add some extra details in my vids👍🍄🫠
Enjoyed the video. Thanks for your input. ❤😊
Thanks! 🍄🫠
Enjoyed the video and your vibes! Very informative, and I learned some things! Thank you! I've been having contam issues with Rye, so I'll try popcorn. I'm glad I found your channel!
I'm glad it was informative, I used to use rye in the early days but I find popcorn to be more reliable and cheaper. Thanks for tuning in👍🍄🫠
Enjoyed your simplicity!!
Thanks!!
This is the kind of myco yt I wanna see
Nice 👍🙂🍄 I'll keep it coming my dude 😎
...Btw this is the kind of feedback that keeps me going thanks allot👍
I've never gotten a reply before.. but I truly ment it
@@TruRedKing thanks!!
@@mycopsycho3130 um if I could request a future video I'm curious about what/how you keep your mushroom genetics Whether that is a spore library or like a grain library or in LC's I'm still relatively new to the hobby I've been watching videos about mycology for 3ish years now I grew lions mane last year as well as blue oysters n others but I can't find much information about genetic library's aside from willys world's video on his library
Fantastic!! Thank you for sharing your research with us. I am a new subscriber my friend!! No music is better than the crap lots of people add to their videos. I would rather hear your thoughts and explanations...
Thanks so much for tuning in, I appreciate your support🫠🍄👍
Nice one pal 👍
Appreciate it bud🍄👍
YOOOOOOO..... I NEED THAT SHIRT!!!
Which one? I designed both, I can hook you up next time I make an order
@@mycopsycho3130 the myco psycho shirt with the shrooms in the mason jar. I realized after I posted comment,you changed shirts. But definitely the 1st one and will definitely buy one
thanks bro ! your content is very helpful.
Thanks! much success to you🫠🍄👍
my first ever grow ,was contaminated, now i'm trying again!!@@mycopsycho3130
Too much work. I used to do this. The day prior, add 1 cup popcorn/grain, 160 ml water and 1/4 tsp gypsum to jar. Add lid. You’re spot on as far as the foil. I’ve been using unicorn bags for this and the tall skinny ones also work gr8 for LC.. Dont forget SHIP and mag bar. No flow hood needed. SAB suffices. I’m using unicorn bags for tool sterilization. Loops. Agar plug cutters. Syringes.
Too much work? This is so simple a child can do it. And I don't see any reason for gypsum in these jars, the ph doesn't matter because colonization is so fast. I get full colonization in less than a week. No need to over complicate the Tek.
Young knowledgeable sir, have you ever colonised a sterile popcorn jar with live mycelium from another spawn jar/bag instead of using liquid culture
Sure, a grain to grain transfer. It has to be done in a still air box or somewhere very sterile because you have to open the sterilized jars to add colonized grain. This is why I prefer LC because you don't have to worry about the environment being clean. You can simply sterilize the injection port and needle and 💥 just like that your golden. Thanks for tuning in🍄🫠👍
This guys a genius, I'm gonna copy exactly what he does. Lost all my lions mane, oyster ffs.
Oh good you found this video🫠🍄👍
Dumb question can u create the mycelium from dried up mushroom spores?
I think I need a little more explanation. The mycelium does come from dried spores.
About to try popcorn tek
I suggest it, easy to sterilize and colonizes quickly.
A question if I may?? I have some green colours in my spawn bag. Should I let the mycelium try to beat it or is it done?? Also if the mycelium wins the battle will it be ok to consume if it fruits?? Thanks 😊
@@persephonemaeve2704 it's trash my friend
@@mycopsycho3130 ok thanks so much. I’ll throw it in the garden 👍🏻
How did you go about making the art for that t shirt?
I used a logo designing app I believe it's called placeit
@@mycopsycho3130 ok cool thanks man I appreciate that
i haven't used popcorn in a few years & watching this because i forgot how to make it :)
been using rye but been having so many problems over the last year so i am switching it up, i am thinking fungicide in the rye or trich from the growing fields causing the problems.
btw: the mycelium will grow towards the center of the jars after knocking it up, you just can't see it but a shake is always good!
thanks!!
Right on! That's why I stick with popcorn, because it's a packaged food product so it is held up to a certain cleanliness standard. I like using Rye berries the best but I also ran into some trich issues that I couldn't seem to kick. Plus I only have an instapot these days and it won't kill everything in the rye.🍄👍
@@mycopsycho3130 organic rye is also super expensive now ! $70.00 a 25kg bag here in canada & i have to drive 45 minutes to pick it up.
been cooking my popcorn for an hour, it's still a little hard, going to test in every 5 minute intervals.
@@themyceliumnetwork wow! That is crazy expensive
@@mycopsycho3130 welcome to canada LOL
@@mycopsycho3130 it took 1.25 hours, going to make up some 1.5lb Unicorn Filter Patch Bags SM-4T (they may be 3T bags 2lb)
should be able to knock them up tomorrow with KOH SSS on agar or LC
Do you leave the jars in the pot for 24 hours and then inoculate or take them out and let them sit for 24 hours then inoculate? I take them out and put them in my sab for 20-24 hours then inoculate.
I also keep them in my SAB
Hi nice viedo. After you have inoculated and they are colonized what do you use as a substrate for corn?
Thanks so much I appreciate the support!!! I use Coco coir I have a video on my channel where I prepare the Coco with boiling water and a bucket.👍🫠🍄
May i ask have you found the bleach soak to hurt you grain at all? Very interesting. Seems like very good idea ❤️thanks for the knowledge
I make sure to rinse the jars thoroughly and wipe them bone dry.
@@mycopsycho3130Wouldn't wiping them after the bleach reintroduce contamination?
It's an extra precaution, the heat is what actually kills the contaminates.
Very difficult to achieve sterilization without pressure cooker even with longer duration
It's actually not difficult at all with popcorn, it's already clean enough to eat so it really doesn't take much to sterilize it. I'm telling you I have a had huge success with this tek right here. It's fool proof imo. Many people fail in the sterility measures when inoculating the popcorn jars.
@@mycopsycho3130 I've never had luck. I can get them to take grain transfer but not spores.
@@bigtime4794 well yeah dude you don't do spores on popcorn start on brown rice flour with the pf tek then do grain transfers, or better yet make liquid culture from the brf jars. I've got allot of videos here that show how to succeed. But yeah never start with spores on popcorn.
You say to boil it for an hour then let it dry 45 minutesm What is the bleach to water ratio? Would it be 1:10 ratio as they use in restaurants to sterilize dishes? You say after you boil and dry to bleach water soak it for 20 minutes and let it dry and then spray it with isopropyl alcohol. Put it out to dry some more and put into pint jars. Do you also use bleach water on brown rice jars too?
Hey man how are you man ??? Ive been waiting for your videos here
Sorry dude, CZcams is restricting my videos so it's hard to get any good info. out. But I am in the works of some good stuff 😁. I hope to get some good vids up soon, thanks so much for your support🍄🫠
@@mycopsycho3130 from phillipines man ..much love and respect
Man, that's really cool that you subscribe to my channel, glad I can entertain you all the way in Philippines. I work with a few people from the Philippines, it sounds like a really cool place to live. Mush love to you my dude🍄🫠
@@mycopsycho3130 thanks man ..
So, youre in your mid to late 40s? If you were a teenager when Shroomery dropped youd be in your late 40s. Whats your Shroomery handle?
Id like to go check out your posts from the late 90 and early 2000s.
Edit: Wait.. so youre telling us youve been at this for decades and are still steam sterilizing? 😲
That in 2 decades you havent progressed to a pressure canner/cooker?
This represents simplistic mycology. I use a 4.7g pressure canner, but I've got friends who have used this method for decades (yes for decades, buddy) because they grow intermittently and don't have any reason to spend the money. I see no problem with that at all, in fact that's why I created this channel, it's correct info for beginners in a world of misinformation. And killing the elitist idea that you need to spend a lot of money on stupid shit like pressure canners and expensive kits or pricey fruiting chambers.
😂🤣🤣🤣😅 Are you kidding In the 90's and 2000's I didn't have any posts, instead I was living life, shit I was in my late teens and early 20's we were not wasting time posting on forums or getting online at all. Besides the shroomery is a forum, most people use it as a reference guide to growing and other info. When I was that age we got on at the library and wrote down teks and checked out books about mycology then went home to try our hand at what we learned. We were just a few broke stoners learning the best way possible lol. I have a handle but no posts.
I did this since 2011 11th grade
Ok... Run along and play now kiddo
I'm 29..
1994
Are those lids a little loose when you put it in the pot or sealed tight?
I seal them tight because they have the vent hole to release any built up pressure in the jars
@@mycopsycho3130 right on.. thanks for answering my question...
I know it's been awhile since this has been posted, but hopefully you see this. Was just wanting to ask, how much water do you use per 2lb bag? I know you said 2in above the grain, but im a little slow and have no idea how to measure that unless i put the grain in first 😂.
I get it, put about 4 inches in the pot, that should do. Sorry for the confusion, I see where that was problematic. Thanks for the support!!🍄🫠👍
Btw I like to be involved and help people out in this hobby, so feel free to ask anything at anytime.
@@mycopsycho3130 Thank you so much!
@@mycopsycho3130 and of course! I'm sure I'll have more questions along the way. 😁
@mycopsycho3130 Your videos have been very helpful. Only problem I ran into was how much water I should use 😂
I’m having trouble with moisture what should I do as far as times before I pc?
What kind of trouble? Not enough?
Simmer for 1 hr, then strain and let sit for 45 mins. (Giving a little shake every now and then). Then pc
Does this work for sterilizing liquid culture
I don't think so
Why dont you do the oven tech? you can use bigger jars.
Because this is a tried and true method, plus why would I switch up what works?
There are lots of teks, just pick what works best for you.
Asking "why don't you use x tek ?" under a tutorial video is so redundant.
Will this work with a multi spore syringe or does it colonize faster with another method?
This method works best with liquid culture or grain to gain transfer. I usually go with brown rice flour and vermiculite for my multi spore syringes. When the brf jars colonize I make my liquid culture then transfer the brf to popcorn. Then I use liquid culture from then on out.
@@mycopsycho3130 I was planning on doing g2g transfer from uncle bens to the popcorn jars. However it would still work better if I used coffee and gypsum right?
@@DVDproducedit I honestly didn't notice a big difference with the coffee and gypsum, but yes it does work.
Does this work for rye?
Rye has to be pressure cooked @ 15 psi for at least 2 hours
Did they do no contams?? They success ?? Give some after you do this plsss
😐I mean... my whole channel is based on this method of growing and it's success
@@mycopsycho3130 thanks my man
Did they fruit???
Oh they fruited... If you check out my channel I have vids of fruits from this method.
Love this hard where do I find the lids
I buy the lids and injection ports on Amazon and drill the holes myself. I have a video of the process that I need to post.🫠🍄
Thanks for watching!!
