Where can one procure the mushroom spores?
Very interesting video, thank you!
He makes it sound way too easy…
Yes you can have quick turn around. But only If you have enough spawn on hand to inoculate. Which can take weeks or even months from petri dish. Unless you buy from a supplier of course.
Once you inoculate the straw it will be a few weeks. Finally by this point you can have a quick turn around….
If he started in 2013 that took him 5 years to dial things in. For a Newb you can prob expect 2-3 years… Just sayin…
Mossy Creek Mushrooms one of my fav channels
Does their straw come from a local supplier? Not sure if I could locally source rye straw in northwest Florida.
What's the high pressure fogger for/do? and the centrifugel fogger for/do? Great operation Guys, Thanks.
Can he make some mushroom ketchup?
Thanks for the shout out
I did this exact same thing, I started a veggie farm 10 years ago, grew mushrooms on straw for 6 years, reduced my salad load this year and got a second farm with a warehouse that I rigged out. Salad will be my employee payer, while mushrooms paves my future.
To get into mushroom farming you have to be many things, an electrician, plumber, construction worker, understand building cost effective materials and seem less design to prevent debris build up, a neurotic cleaner and organizer, electronics fixer, and generally passionate about mushrooms before you start. It's not a money grab like growing shoots it.
I got into mycology back when I developed a staph infection from cleaning a chicken coops, antibiotics didn't clear it, so in desperation I tried turkey tail mushroom tea. It worked and from then on I am devoted to the obsession.
Nice to see others working with fungi
