Tok's First Mushroom Diary - Medical First/Recreation

One bag is farther along than the other, so, I did a break and shake of that bag and will let the Mycelial Growth continue to develop a little longer. Then I will open the bag to allow the mushrooms to grow outside of the bag. Since I have some bulk bags coming today; I decided to fruit the Nameless shrooms right out of the bag.

I will cut the bags two different ways; one on the corner and the other on the front of the bag. To see which way works best. I will be doing this in two days.

Here are some current images.







Fruiting come Monday on one bag.

Be safe and grow well my friends,
Tok..
Just showed my wifey Weezy and she said yup.... looks familiar. My Ben's experience was solid. Once you get that very early sterile thing down there's big hurdle.
advice for the future .... Once you start doin your own grains..... Birdseed is cheaper and effective. And millet works really good too!! It's looking good buddy!! Can't wait to see this in a few weeks!! Happy Saturday!!
😎✌️
 
Thank you very much for stopping by @Scottay

Sorry to have disappointing news, but when I cut the bag for fruiting I could see a green fungi growing inside the bag and discarded the bag.

I still have another bag, I cut the corner off for fruiting, so far, so good.

I need to go food shopping, so I will update with images when I return.

Hey I've had it before. Spores tend to be inherently dirty little boogers! Thanks for sharing the good as well as the bad! I've never had a failure.... I just know 10 thousand ways NOT to do things. Hopefully your other bag pops off for you!! Then let the fun begin!! 😎✌️

Since this area is new to most of us, I thing it is only right to share everything good and bad, and hopefully help someone else in the future.
Also thank you for your valuable input.


First off I want to give a big shout out to @Spore Genetics and @Midwest Grow Kits I have received my prizes for the October MDotM. I received 5 spores variety which were Albino Penis Envy (APE) 10cc Spore Syringe, Tidal Wave, Jedi Mind Fuck, Panaeolus Cyanescens Estero and Amazonian from @Spore Genetics

@Midwest Grow Kits sent me two All-in-One Mushroom Grow Bag (4 lbs) for Manure Loving Mushrooms and a Ready to Grow Gourmet Mushroom Grow Kit (5lbs) per-inoculated on 10-20-2023 with variety: Yellow/Golden Oyster, yummy.


Both 4 lbs. bags have been inoculated; one with 7cc of Nameless spores and the other was inoculated with 6 cc of Amazonian spores on November 21, 2023. I will wait for a week of so before I check on them; they are currently in a dark period for the Mycelial Growth phase.

A lot has been going on the last couple of days. One of my UB Brown Rice bags got contaminated with a green fungi and the other one is currently in the fruiting chamber.

Below are some images of me inoculating some grain bags.




















That's all for now.

Nice photo tute, Tok!
 
I have my setup for growing mushrooms in a shower stall in one of my bathrooms. I scrubbed everything down before I put the flowering chamber in there. So far so good ,on controlling the environment.

While I was there, I just had to check my All-In-One grain bags, but no mycelial growth spotted yet.

Be safe and grow well my friends,
Tok..
That's funny, I just today took mine out of the shower stall. I didn't have enough working room for photos that I need to take. :rofl:
 
That's funny @Lady Cannafan :rofl:

Some day I am going to look into a setup like yours, just not yet.

Well I took your advice on making a substrate @Ramblinrose1965 I bought a 5 pack of 650 gram coco coir blocks and a large bag of vermiculite. I can get the gypsum from the local box store cheaper and more than online. Thank you for the recipe for coco coir substrate.

Be safe and grow well my friends,
Tok..
Awesome, Its really easy to do and very productive

Lookin good! Do yourself a favor and make a still air box. Its a game changer at keeping contaminates at bay. I don't think I have had a bad jar of spawn since instituting the SAB.

Congratulations on scoring such awesome prizes TR and looking forward to seeing your results. CL🍀
 
Thank you @CaptainLucky

The Golden Oysters are currently in the fruiting chamber, these should be tasty mixed in with something.
@Midwest Grow Kits two All-In-One bags have been inoculated with @Spore Genetics Nameless spore in one and the other has Amazonian Spores.

Think about buying more All-In-One bags, but I got to think about gifts and birthdays for the holidays. One of my grandson birthday is a couple days before Christmas, so I make sure they are separate celebrations and gifts.

Be safe and grow well my friend,
Tok..
 
Thank you for stopping by @Lady Cannafan

I fail to take any images, but she on her second dunk right now. I was really surprised at how tasty it was fried/ Sautee.
I enjoyed it with a big salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette.

How about yours? is it still growing?

TR

edit: The Oyster shrooms are in the fruiting stage, but nothing yet.
Mine is pretty much done. I have a bunch of it dehydrated. I took big slices and fried them up in butter and a little garlic to top juicy burgers.
Nothing like it! 🍔
 
I see myself growing it again in the future.
I am really getting into the shroom thing, on both sides.

Still no fruit showing on the Oyster, maybe a few more days.

Be safe and grow well my friend,
Tok..
Oh yeah......I'm hooked. LOL I have all kinds of plans now, just need to get this current bunch of strains finished up and set sail for uncharted shrooms. 🍄 Got one family member that is going to get started as well. There is a black Friday sale going on with the The Essentials Substrate Ecosphere Package 3.0 , he's grabbing it. The one I have is Ecosphere 3.0 and that's on sale too.
