Easiest musrooms to grow on stumps
    #22842017 - 01/30/16 11:57 AM (8 years, 1 month ago)

Hello,

I would like to grow edibles on some stumps in my parents' yard. Are there any varieties of mushroom that require no care?

I was thinking shiitake.  Any Ideas?

Thanks

shiitake, oysters, lions manes. What's your location? Are they shaded?

Let me follow up with my own question. As it has been reported to take a few years to see fruits on stumps what would be the fastest return?

The stumps are in zone 6.  So it gets into the single digit negatives F in the winter.

The stumps are not shaded.  Is shade an absolute requirement?

I've grown oysters outside, takes 12 months, and needs to be cased in spent soil to prevent infection.
However I used waste paper and card, which is not a good substrate tbh.

It fruited @ 10°C (50°F), 88-90% RH.


I'd suggest making a batch of sawdust (from pellets) using any recommended tek.
Case it in compost, which is really cheap to buy.

If your growing a sub-tropical strain they prefer:

Colonize @ 20-22°C (68-72°F).
Fruit @ 18-20°C (64-68°F).

Reducing the temperature will effect growth rates.
It wont really need any attention.


Direct sunlight can damage mycelium and cause rapid water loss.

it doesn't take long in the nature for some other species to take over...
The main idea is to inoculate the stumps within two weeks after cutting the tree down. Doing so will increase your odds of success.
