I wonder which strain is better for monotub environment, formosanum or neo-japonicum

Well these are gonna be done in a monotub cause that's how I roll. When I get around to greenhouse build I might do a side by side but for now these bad boys look like they will be ready to spawn tomorrow. Still debating a sub choice but will probably just rock some sterilized coir verm and fuel pellets like I did with my other reishi grows.

Just spawned these to a mini mono. 3 quarts of sterilized coir, oak fuel pellets, and a little verm. Pretty much my usual mix. Spawn ratio is a little lower than I usually do when sterilizing wood but they seem pretty aggressive so I figure it will be fine. Spawn smells exactly like g lucidum does. Should have some worthy pics in a couple days.

Its snarling through the sub pretty good. I spawned this tub thicker on one side so that it has better balance when I put it on its side. At this rate I'm expecting to fruit in 3 or 4 days.

I suggest you case it if you have material and will to do it. It help with excess water, it helps with keeping sub moist (it takes long time for reishi to be grown) and if you don't plan to water it every day than this is good choice, and for the last, it pins nicer IMO/IME

I'm not sure about casing ganoderma. Won't it all fall down when I flip the tub on its side? I know Muda cased his bottles of reishi but that's a different scenario. I would suspect any organic material would simply get massively over colonized and even if it didn't, not sure if I like the idea of peat sitting for the month its gonna take to fruit. Maybe a straight verm casing. Maybe.
Got any links of someone doing this?

I did that. Only one time though. I got so much reishi from it that I still have it in freezer and some as tincture in fridge. I don't know how I could use any more reishi, even now I have too much of it.
Why would you flip the tube? Don't flip it and the problem = solved. Even if you flip it, most of casing would remain unless you shook it on purpose (some wouldn't ofc). My casing (mostly peat, 80+%, some verm and CaCO3) didn't get colonized at all. I mean, only the parts where fruits grew did get colonized. And that made it really easy to pick mature mushrooms beacuse they weren't so bonded with substrate, twist&pull was enough. Without casing you need a knife. My casing didn't get contaminated or anything and I had it well over a month. PH is essential. If you don't get it high enough, it will mold. If you do, than it really shouldn't.

I flip the sub cause it prevents pooling and encourages pinning. Worked pretty good for me in the past. When I tried not flipping it was when the metabolites pooled and caused problems.

Lol, interesting idea to get rid of excess liquid. If you flip it than don't use casing. So I guess it boils down to flipping or casing.

Yeah flipping the tub on its side was Forresters trick and it works pretty good, not sure why more people don't do it
