 Just a little Lion's mane porn.

Nothing too special but it is a fairly large grow in my world.
I really shouldn't turn my back on these, got all pinned and I don't know when it happened.
It's from the culture I've been trading recently if anyone has a child of it.
I expect dinner in a few days.

They look great.  I cant wait to start some of these off myself. What substrate are they on out of interest?

LOL! I took that pic about 3 minutes after I opened the bag.
You are right, FAE was lacking.

Are you going to put the bag into a FC or fruit it from the bag?
Nice fruits.

Looking good today.
     
I opened the bag and rolled the top down, it's in a shotgun FC right now.
It's sitting on 3 small bowls so it doesn't cover all the perlite.

Wow they look great, I just ordered some lions mane spores, how long did it take to get from spore to the point you're at now. Did you do a MS or an LC?

I didn't start with spores, I started with a small wedge from agar.
I threw that wedge in the bag January 3rd 2011.
One month and one day old.

Still growing.
Getting ball like, less spiky by the day.
I know it has a way to go but I may harvest tomorrow.
I have enough for a meal and clones.

It would just cover the whole block with puffs. That's why it works better to fruit out of slits in the bag. You just chop the puffballs off and wait for more.

I cloned one once and ate off it for six months. It's just getting senescent now, but for a while it was tasty. 
Thanks for the wild bird seed tip, Peterthinks!

The side isn't much to see, just a bag.
I did take a pic though.

And by the way wild bird seed with everything left in, sunflower seeds and floaters and twigs and everything.
Nothing skimmed off.

What brand/name of birdseed did you use? I am trying to grow some for my granny in law, just got Alzheimer we think, waiting on the neurologists word. I started some in vermiculite and rice flower and finally a month later I am seeing some mycellium in the jar, is it normal to take that long? Or is it the substrate? I also made some LC so I have plenty to start over with, although even the LC is taking forever compared to reishi and even cordyceps militaris. I am using the sugar in the raw method with the siliconed lid method on those.
Thanks,
Dave

It was the cheap bird seed you can get at dollarama. honestly it doesn't matter what you get the more husks and twigs in it the better....it's a wood eater, I even left in the sunflower seed shells. Just make sure you add some vermiculite to fluff it up so it doesn't make a solid block of paste out of the seed. I think it was budgie seed with a lot of millet in it. I added some ground up drywall and coffee grounds too.
Off the top of my head
for each (dry) kilogram of seed
add
2 cups of vermiculite
2 tablespoons ground drywall and 1 tablespoon used coffee grounds.
soak/steep/boil or whatever your seed to hydrate it drain and then add the verm/drywall/coffee.
mix it up, make it so it feels moist but not drippy wet by adding verm or water then PC it in whatever you like.
Bags, jars , cups, small tubs, PP food containers, anything, Lion is not picky.
Inoculate then wait. If you did it clean you cannot fail, it will even force it's way out of the filter and fruit if you ignore it too long.
I ignored a jar full of hardwood plugs I knocked up...it came out on it's own.
In my own defense I didn't have logs to plug.
I let my culture fail...but I know a tree that fruits it and it's due

I was wondering if even extra sunflower seed shells may be beneficial being they are like wood. You may be on to something leaving those in.

I used gypsum from wallboard on my first experiment and killed my culture. I googled drywall composition and found that it often has a fungicide in it, so I'm using gypsum from the garden center now. I also have hericium fruiting in my basement in a SGFC, and very interested in making a spore print.
Nice grow!

Good luck.
You will want to suspend the LM fruit over whatever you are taking
the print on. I have done this, and it works fine.
