Suggestions for a tropical climate
    #19167955 - 11/20/13 10:42 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Hello fellow members!

As the title suggests, I would love to hear people's suggestions on medicinal and edible mushrooms that would grow well in a tropical climate.  The temperature almost never gets below 70F and hardly gets above 90F.

My grow space is limited to a wide closet that is large enough for a 4 shelf martha or 4 large monotubs.  I have been using cubes to practice my sterile grow methods, and will soon try a bulk sub.  Upon success, I want to scrap that project and grow different species.

I currently take reishi and cordyceps capsules and I love the benefits I get from them.  They are pricey though and from what I understand, are way less effective than they could be. 

Also, I had a question about the liquid cultures sold by the vendor sites.  Are they multispore?  Or should I inoculate my grain with them directly.

Any suggestions will be great.  Thank you in advance :thumbup:

They are not multispore, they are an already proven culture.  Yep, straight to grain is fine that's how I do it.

You should be able to grow reishi at those temps and save yourself some money!  It's easy to grow and resistant to contamination as well.

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.

Ahh very nice.  I like working with agar, but if I can save time to get started, I can buy spores later on to see if I can isolate genomes with more favorable growth characteristics. 

The reishi I did happen to look up it's ideal climate already and I was super happy to see it likes my climate.  Good call man. 

I think once I have more information about mushrooms that I can grow locally, I will make myself a nice spreadsheet with a cost comparison, grow logs, and plans for future projects. 

Thank you for the info.

Calocybe indica - Milky Mushroom
Pleurotus djamor - Pink Oyster
Agaricus subrufescens (ABM) - Almond Mushroom, Himematsutake
Pleurotus cystidiosus - Abalone Mushroom
