Just had an idea! would it work?
    #10592917 - 06/29/09 03:09 PM (15 years, 6 months ago)

If I were to add sugar or honey to my water that I put in my mister would this induce further growth of the mycelium, would it increase yield and/or increase the amount of flushes I get
? Or on the other hand would it just further the risk of contamination? 

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I couldn't find anything when I searched the forums.

Peace

I think honey or sugar is only really beneficial during the beginning stages of life in fungi. Besides, I think you could accomplish much better results (and many fewer ants) by using a bulk substrate, and spawning your mycelium into that. It might work a little bit, but I think the benefits would be so small they would be negligible.

No is not a nice answer to any question!

Whereas No...(elaboration) is much better. :smile:

Here's the thing: it's a trick question.

Any time anybody comes to this forum and asks "will this work?", the answer is "No".
100% of the time, no exceptions.

Why? Anybody who has a chance of succeeding at whatever it is just goes and tries it instead of asking.

Edit: I guess it doesnt matter cuz you basically do it anyways when you inject a LC into some substrate
