Transfering/fruiting Mycobags Outdoors
    #13035864 - 08/11/10 10:48 AM (13 years, 6 months ago)

Got: 6 four-pound brf mycobags fully (fukkin) colonized and want to do it outdoors.

Got: 1 four-pound rye berry mycobag fully (fukkin) colonized and want to do it outdoors.

(All cubes.) Steer me into productivity, all & sundry.  Prints forwarded generously...and especially to innovative Teksters who devise ways to facilitate ze less of a human trail, ze mo bettah.

We don't even get a hint as to your climate?
I mean, it's gonna be different in Anchorage than in Alabama, y'know.
It would be nice also to have some understanding of your skills and experience, as well as the materials you can or can't get.

I'll start it off as a "Contest" (quotes around the word, as I did not post this as a Contest-type shindig); but two rad/dark-big Transkei prints (right now) to the most innovative/stealth outdoor Tek.  (Plus mega-prints to come.)

That'd help, jah:

Island, semi-tropical; 82 Fahrenheit, reliably, during daytime; mucho humidity (been raining lots lately; even on "dry" days, humidity is guaranteed 75%...but usually much more sticky.

I crumbled and dumped and covered with a light layer of straw and woodchips about 13 "spent" cakes last month, and found it very quickly overrun with pill bugs/rolly-pollies, and not a goddamned 'shroom emergent.  Not a one.  Don't want to make that mistake again with fresh/huge cakes.

I have 7 kilo of coir.  & an endless supply of verm.  & straw at the asking.  And a PC.  And and and.

Have already done the PC/innoc legwork on the bag; they're ready to fruit, but I want to do it OUTDOORS WITH MINIMAL HUMAN FOOTPRINT.  Dig?

Spawn all the grain to giant piles of horse poo, make big, big beds and hope the bugs don't eat all the mushrooms?
Or a monotub in an abandoned barn, maybe?

Did basically that, with 13 (fairly "spent") cakes recently.  Got nada.  Will not ride the fail boat again.

Not a bad idea.  ...But not really what I meant by an "outdoor grow."  :stonedjerk:

'k, dug out a 4" pit, roughly 3' x 4' (goddamn).  Laid down vinyl sheeting.  Spread 2.5" layer of sterilized (PC'd for 90min) coir/verm/gypsum/(a bit) of dry malt. Nestled in "rows" of quarter-sized myc. from a colonized bag (brf).  Layered over that another inch of same substrate (as above).  Then a 1/8" layer of dry verm.

Very (very) fine mesh was placed both vertically and horizontally overtop the rectangle, with mesh tucked under the edges of the vinyl.  Rocks placed all (the fuck) around/on top the sides of the mesh/vinyl.  No way slugs can get in.  Nor pill-bugs.  The only thing that could get through would be gnats or ants...but not a single ant was seen for dozens of meters surrounding the locale.  Not a lot of bugs visible (other than worms...but the undergirding vinyl sheeting should take care of that.

Rectangle bed is between a grove of trees; decent foliage cover, no ultra-direct sunlight (leaking through, but not exposed).  I did not cover the four layers of mesh with anything else.  Could not find canvas at any nursery, and was gettin' tired.

So.

This is exactly what I was going to suggest, you read my mind.  Perhaps cover the mesh with foliage so as to camouflage it.  You said less of a human trail, right?  So that would imply you're not doing this on your property?  Definitely risky, but as long as it's a remote spot where no one frequents, you should be cool.  I did a small 2'x2' patch recently in the woods, didn't take the mesh precautions you did, cause I trust my local bugs to do the right thing (we'll see how that turns out....), but I did cover it with the forest floor mulch of decayed leaves and sticks to hide it from any passersby, if there are any.  No way to tell it's there whatsoever except for the stick I stuck in the middle of it.  Good luck, and definitely keep us updated!

No human would trek to where was trekked today.  And if any bothered to do so, it'd be a total question mark as to what lay beneath this sheath.  Am not at all concerned.

I'll return in 10 days to see what's what.  Treating this, basically, as an outdoor Neglect Tek.  :awesomenod:

Went back today, to place a layer of vinyl sheeting loosely atop the plot.  Perforated it with about 20 holes, just big enough for rain to drain down into the patch.  Weighted it down with a few rocks on the edges, but plenty of space for ventilation.

Woke up to forecast of heavy rain and got 'noid...didn't want the entire effort to turn into a pool of sludge.

This should turn out golden.  :awesomenod:
