I can't wait for a review.  That seems like such a cheap price, I'm shocked it's so cheap!

Hopefully you get it soon and share how it performs, then I can get my order in to Santa in the next couple of weeks :wink:

Hypsizygus ulmarius [Re: jimmyjame1]
    #15453654 -

Here are the "Hypsizygus ulmarius" grown from the Mushroom Patch culture.





Gills: Decurrent like oysters, not adnexed or adnate, which Hypsizygus has.

Smell: oyster mushroomy.

And the spores:


Spores: cylindrical, like an oyster, not globosis or subglobosis, like Hypsizygus.

I've got other "H. ulmarius" at various stages of growth. I'm still waiting for cultures from Out-Grow and Javadog (jimmyjame1's mushrooms).

16 parts sawdust
8 parts wood chips
2 parts wheat bran
1 part gypsum

For one 4+ pound bag, I use a quart jar 2/3 filled with spawn, which is a 10% spawn to substrate ratio.

beautiful sounds like a happy bag!

how big are your wood chips, i have some hickory chips ( for smoking meat) they are quite chunky but i thought if i mixed with plenty of saw dust it would work fine.

and for wheat bran, are there any substitutes you could recommend? would something like brow rice flower work in the same way?

how would you say this substrate preforms compared to straw?

i know its a lot of questions im just trying to learn as much as i can about wood substrates right now because i have a lot of wood lovers on grain right now and some small myco bags with filter ports, but my spawning procedure is a little weak right now.

Nice formula Terry.

I have the JJ EO on agar X 2 right now.

I am doing a plastic bag test, with one dish in a ziplock and the other
not.  Both are parafilm wrapped.  I want to test the breathability of
my ziplocks.  Point: I am just not able to leave them inflated with
air.  Even though it would be sterile flow hood air, I need to be able
to stack my dishes.  Thus, if these bags do not breath enough for
good growth, then I will stop using them.

I will have a wedge out to you before too long in any case.

Take care,

I use wood chips of the kind that are sold for barbecue. To avoid are wood chunks, which I bought once by mistake. Those chunks are literally blocks of wood. I used cherry, and this source dried up, so I'm switching to Alder. But I've wondered about hickory.

Quote:

I dont think so. You can use any type of bran: wheat, rice, oat, etc. I buy my wheat bran at Whole Foods. It's the cheapest thing by volume in the entire store!

Quote:

Apple and oranges. Picky wood lovers would not do well on straw. Oyster mushrooms do well on practically anything.

Get yourself a copy of Stamets' "Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms." Just ignore the White Elm Mushroom chapter.  :grin:

I have heard good things about Hickory, but Alder is the gold standard
from what I have read.

"Just ignore the White Elm Mushroom chapter."  :lmao:  Yes, this is perhaps
the original source for our mystery and this misnamed culture.
