So here are the new improvements to the greenhouse. I pushed the whole thing out 14". May not sound like much but it makes a world of difference. I added a few computer fans that kick on with the cool mist when the humidistat tells them to. Love that thing. Changed out the metal shelves for plastic because the old ones rusted. Put the clear plastic on the back to let more natural light in from the basement windows. Im getting ready to add another 4' fixture on top since i have more room now. Here are the new pics. BTW 3 large rolls of gorilla tape have gone into this thing so far. Love that stuff!

Few updated pictures
This last bag is on its third flush. Its a mix of corn cobb pet bedding, aspen bedding, coffee grounds, and paper bedding. One of my earlier experiments that has produced well but not that cost effective.

Coming along nicely.
On that fourth picture down, is that some green mold I'm seeing?

Is that exposed to air? Are you concerned about spore contamination? Double-check me on this, but IIRC you can mist the moldy areas with peroxide, that will slow down the mold and not harm the mycelium. Personally, though, I would throw out the bag; not worth the potential risk to the fruiting area for a small cluster of mushrooms.

No, peroxide is only good for cobweb.
Some have used salt paste to slow down undesirables, but there is no
beating green mold.
Good luck,

Few pics of the progress. My sawdust/bran blocks are beginning to pin. This is by far the fuzziest myc i have seen! Its from spores i collected from a wild grey. It looks like cotton balls on top of the block. There is also a agar dish with gold oyster that started fruiting in the incubator.
    
Oh and some king pins. Second flush of my first ever straw bags with kings. I threw the other one out because of the contamination

Ya love kings. I did a vegan dish the other day with them as the "meat" feature. It was espresso,chili and cinnamon rubbed oyster mushroom over a chipotle chickpea puree, saute green beans with sofrito, and a toasted almond chimicherri foam. I could eat those kings all night!

A little update on my progress. Things are going well with the new setup. Almost ready for my biggest grow yet! Plus a little bonus aquaponic update.
All critique of the setup is welcome and encouraged. See something i could do more efficiently please help a frugal grower out!

Cool, watch out for the Alfalfa based rabbit food, some have molasses added which will be an open invitation for contamination.
