I've been using fuel pellets which have been working great! There's a construction site where they're clearing out a bunch trees to make a parking lot. I might just drive down there and pick up the biggest log that can fit in my car when I run out though. Haha.

Gonna need to be patient with reishi, they do like to take their time. These tubs were introduced to fruiting conditions a month ago.

Definitely got my antlers

God damn that's awesome pasty. Fortunately they colonize quickly though. What's the texture of reishi like? I always pictured them really woody and hard, am I wrong?

Haha. Nice, I read that rr is using reishi mycelium in molds to make a plastic alternative that the military may use to make backpacks that are biodegradable needless to say, reishi myc is the toughest mycelium I have ever seen. Haha.

I would love results like that pasty. Do they benefit from a casing layer?

No you do not case them. I have the tubs on their sides and no polyfil in the holes. These tubs have a pattern of 1/4" holes on top of the short sides, and the lids are cracked to help with FAE.

I have a few plates ready for another transfer my Cedar Creek (Wild Aussie) is very aggressive! It also looks like one of the Creeper plates will be ready soon!

Yeah I used tetra plates thought they had mold at first but it was just very wispy growth and very aggressive.

Definitely! I can't believe I only transfered 2 or 3 days ago and it's almost taken the plate! There are no off colors and it's showing the beginning of rhizomes towards the edges so I'm really excited! My oak hills also germinated in like 2 days and looks like it may end up giving the Cedar Creek a run if I were to do a side by side! Lots of stuff going kinda exciting to be working with all these varieties. Hoping to get a few more spores soon! Stocking up for the apocalypse!

Good shit.
I see you're using my hybrid mono design, are the holes on the bottom standard mono holes?

They do have regular mono holes 1.5" on the long sides, but they are taped up for these. The reishi will grow right through the poly and I removed it. The tape is loose however, and the lid is cracked to allow for more FAE.
My next go with these I plan to do the tubs in a different configuration to better accommodate the reishi's needs. This grow was just to test surface fruiting in a sideways mono.
