Strangest Substrate?
    #10873039 - 08/16/09 09:55 PM (14 years, 6 months ago)

What's the strangest substrate you've ever heard someone using?  Just curious.  It seems like, within reason, mushrooms will grow on just about anything.

I'm always surprised that coir works, to tell you the truth.

RogerRabbit has a picture in his signature of mushrooms growing on a bible.

A bible? That's awesome.  (Although I do hate to see a book destroyed)

When I saw that picture, I was in shock for many reasons. I was impressed, surprised and laughing quite a bit to see magic mushrooms growing out of the pages of a bible.

Strangest substrate? Ramen noodles and vermiculite.
Realizing I had very very little BRF left, I just looked around for anything that might provide some nutrients. Noodles seem to fit the bill (I was on a few too many chemicals, clear thinking wasn't an option at the time) although the mushrooms weren't very potent in the end, for obvious reason.

It was a bible that was printed in china.  I saw it at walden books and got so mad, I bought it just to grow mushrooms on.  They don't even allow their own people to have bibles, but print them with their cheap-ass communist labor to flood our markets over here, putting book printers out of business in the U.S.  Fuck them.

I like the bra and quarter pound of nugs grows better for unusual substrates.  The burrito was interesting too, although a shitty performer.

I've seen a couple noodle grows over the years.  Some of the more interesting grows I've watched are some guy put a stuffed doll in a jar and pressure cooked it.  It was one of those Eet Moor Chikn cows I think.  Anyhow It colonized... that was pretty wild.  I liked the straw cakes I saw someone do recently.  Pint jars filled with straw and shot up with LC.  I myself just recently made a poop cake work.  Yeah I'm still in shock myself.  I ran across the old thread Anno made years ago with a recipe for poo cakes for Pan Cyans.  I was looking for a Pan Substrate when I found it.  I forget who's recipe it was originally.  Anno was quoting someone else.  Anyhow it has worked so far.  The jars are fully colonized.  I would have put them in a tray and cased them this week end if not for so many house guests etc.  Let me see what other weirdos have I seen... well I saw someone use grass clippings as their mini bulk substrate before.  RR used pot as a substrate once.  A lot of pot.  There is an old thread on it around here somewhere.  Frankly look back through RRs posts.  I dig through his threads from time to time and find some pretty interesting stuff.  Oh I once used MGMC as a minibulk substrate.  I mixed some WBS with it.  Not fantasic but it worked.

ok i found a place to admit what I've done lmao

i was broke and had some LC ... I mixed some sorghum/molasses with chex grain cerial and cow poo in 1/2 pint jars... and injected with LC

then I took some Tupperware and old CD/DVD packages and poured the sorghum with peroxide/LC in on top lol :crazy:

guess i figured i might as well have something to watch grow lol the poo syrup cerial is starting to colonize lmfao

nothing on the molasses/sorghum stuff alone yet
