Sorry I was a little unclear, I place colonized pieces into the bulk substrate.

If you are dealing with energy rich substrates like grains, full of sugar and starch this wont work at all, obviously you just get a smelly pile of shit. Sterility is key with energy rich substrates.

I use substrates with a very high bacterial content, to mimic the conditions panaeolus has when they attack fresh crap cakes in nature. Pans are very common in south east asia where they usually grow on manure cakes, they obviously have to compete with other dung fungi so in that sense they are pretty agressive.

I pasteurize very thoroughly to kill all competing fungi and let the bacterias take complete control. Since the substrate doesn't have any light carbohydrates no bad bacterias or molds get a foothold, its quite similar to what pans are designed to germinate, which is why in worked well... So far anyway, I haven't used it long enough to claim its completely foolproof.

NO worries.  Thank you for sharing!

Good luck,

So am I understanding correctly that spawn bags or qt jars with properly pasteurized substrate is the best medium to inoculate if you know you have a clean culture? And from 100% colonization, we are to spread out this spawn/substrate directly to the fruiting chamber and apply a casing layer?

It's very good medium to inoculate in my opinion, kind of hard to define whats best or perfect.

If it takes forever to go from 95% to reach 100%, you can just dig out the uncolonized parts and move on, I don't think you will risk anything.

Yep make it ready for fruiting as soon as its colonized, pinning can start very quick.

I haven't used casing layer myself yet, seems more like a personal preference.

I've seen great results with it, suppose its good for more stable moisture, absorbing impacts from water droplets if thats a problem. I'll try to use a thin one with very loose soil next time.

Hey Ryath,

I usually colonize in the same tub or tray that I intend
to fruit in, but one can break up a fully colonized sub
into a tub/tray to fruit.  Usually a recovery period is
observed.  Casing is optional with cubes, as usual.

I like to case, but sometimes I do not want to deal
with the pasteurization cycle.

Take care,

JD
