Shroom Plan
    #22238887 - 09/14/15 10:02 PM (8 years, 4 months ago)

Hi,

I'm new to this hobby and the forum. My interest is to grow White Button Mushrooms and Crimini / Portabello mushrooms indoors.

I have gone through a lots of text and videos and realized that there are many ways to grow.

Constraints:
1. I live in a limited space condo
2. My only grow area is a small space and therefore can only use 6 Qt plastic shoe boxes.

What I already learnt:
1. White mushrooms fruit in compost substrate.
2. Need Peat Moss as casing on top of compost to retain moisture.


My Plan:
1. Take spore-prints (done).
2. Develop Rye substrate by soaking, sterilizing soaked rye berries into jars
3. Inoculating Rye jars with spore prints. Cut spore print into small pieces and inoculate the rye jars.
4. Wait for full colonization in jars.
5. Plan to buy Miracle Grow compost from Home Depot for fruiting (only two varieties available at local HD). Understand that there is no horse manure in the compost mix. No plan on pasteurizing the compost. Help needed.

Please correct the plan if there is something wrong. I would like to get my jars colonize first before I develop a fruiting plan.

Thanks.

Everyone is going to tell you to ditch the miracle grow. Just a heads up. Welcome to shroomery.

Thanks for the heads up on miracle grow, but what readily available substrates that I can use?

You can spawn to coconut coir and vermiculite. If there is a feed store nearby you you should be able to find an organic brand.

My local HD has vermiculite. I believe coco coir comes in a form of compressed brick. This is what I can ship to store.

Thanks.
