Advice please
    #22122055 - 08/21/15 11:37 AM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Hi thanks for looking
We went to amsterdam few weeks ago called into innerspace bought Thai spore print, I asked the girl there if I could grow them like normal mushrooms she said yes,got home went to local farm got some cow and horse manure well rotted down plenty of straw mixed in and a bit of jhon inne seedcompost, put in a pillow case simmered my mix for about an hour left it to drain overnight, using two window flower troughs/planters put about 3 inch deep mix in, made two syringes up and injected spores all over each tray covered with news paper and sprayed with distilled water to keep paper from drying out, it's been 9 days and think it's starting to colonise I think take some pics later, friend says they don't grow on poo and it's probably contaminate different from growing button mushrooms should of used rice flour, is there no way they will grow in th mix I used because it looks like it is to me.

Yeah that's contamination.

So here's where you went wrong: To grow mushrooms in a bulk substrate you need grains or PF tek. You will need a pressure cooker for grains. You tried to inoculate the bulk substrate directly when what you should have done was is inoculated the grains. The grains/PF tek is called Spawn when used in this manner. With no spawn you don't give the mycelium the advantage so they have to fight other contaminants to establish dominance.

Contrary to popular belief, this normally doesn't lead to one winning the entire substrate. You'll get patches of mycelium (Probably not using this method), patches of different kinds of mold, bacteria, etc. In the wild cubensis is constantly in contact with contaminants so they'll avoid the food the mold has grown over.

Someone verify for me if contams actually attack mycelium and can kill it and take over the substrate.

So basically you need to do some grain jars.

Hi thanks for reply :-) do you think there a chance I will get at least one shroom so I can take a print or will I have to buy another one.

Since you shot spores into steam hpoo no, nothing but contamination is going to grow.  There are many steps you missed.  I agree with the last comment, you're going to need to get more spores and attempt this again following the right teks.

All my pictures are drawn from imagination.  I don't even know what a mushroom is.

I did ask the girl in shop but to be fair she was totally off her head said they would grow, since looking on here a bit,there's alot more to these than Suttons button mushroom spores lol, where is best place to order syringes or spores from as it's a bit to far to travel to get another haha
