All the cultivation techniques I'm finding here seem more complicated than needed.
Whats to stop someone from getting a few spore syringes and noc'ing up a few large chunks of oak tree? Say drill some holes into them, inject spores and cover the holes with wax like a technique I saw for shiitake. Then just let 'em do their thing.
Anyone know for sure that this would not work?
I live in the proper climate for them by the by. Could just let the chunks of tree sit outside next to my place.

That would work. Stamets has pictures of the technique with that species in his book Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms.

driving a stick shift seems more complicated than it really is. Everything here is pretty damn easy to do. It's confusing to read everything but take a look at start to finish grow logs if that's your way of learning.
I don't think cubes would perform very well in an oak tree but some other species of mushrooms would.
Everything here is "complicated" because it's actually, often times, the easiest way that works well.

I know, reading the title of the thread before criticizing it would have just been too much.
Sorry, not ALL the techniques here, I love this site. The teks for this species though. The crumbled brf+saw dust cakes to cardboard tek looks interesting.
Been doing this for a sec, not looking for someone on my levels opinion. I already have that. If someone who has tried this or knows someone who has could help I would appreciate it.
For instance, would I need to kill off the molds already growing on the logs? Could I just chop em' down and throw them in the oven at 300 for an hour?
Would I soak the logs? Before innoc? after?
I would try a bunch of different things were I to do this, but if someone could save me from contemplating expensive mistakes, that'd be cool.
