ahh, good idea. I hate running out of space when I'm trying to get a bunch of mushroom ID's.

Growing Gourmet Mushrooms on Enriched Sawdust
When sawdust is supplemented with a nitrogen-rich additive, the yields of most wood-decomposers are enhanced substantially. Most brans derived from cereal grains work equally well. Rye, wheat, corn, oat, and soybean brans are commonly used.
Flours lack the outer seed coat and, by weight, have proportionately more nutrition than brans.

The additives replace the contamination prone grains, corn etc. Review the nutrients listed in the first post.

what about adding high nitrate aquarium wastewater? like 200ppm concentration. you could evaporate for higher concentrations if necessary

Wouldn't that have a ton of microorganisms in it? Not saying it wont work. The chemical fertilizers are contamination free and stay clean.
The fertilizers provide a rich array of nutrients.

Here is another reason to use chemical fertilizers. Grains, and bran just became old skool.

if you boil it the microbes will die, no? i was just wondering because i was thinking of the feasibility of incorporating an aquaponic farm and a mushroom farm. what about running fish waste solids through a 2 stage digester and adding the resulting effluent to your substrate? the digestion process should kill any pathogens right?

That's true, they should die when cooked. Why not try it, side-by-side.

interesting...isn't this just for bulk sub though? I don't see how you're replacing grains, unless you were to inoculate sawdust spawn with agar. (been wondering if there's a reason we go to grains and then sawdust, why not just sawdust.)

Only replacing them in a fruiting substrate. Not yet worked on replacing them totally. Some species, strains require a varied starter grow to amplify genetics.
That is the next thing to conquer, I have the myco bible.

Darn, bought a bottle of miracle grow with the exact same name except missing the word concentrated. Which is weird because mine is more concentrated nutrient wise. It'll be reasonably close to the same balance if I use half as much though.

Go for it, thats why I posted the nutrients and images for labels. Some people may not be able to get exact like for like.
Some minor experimenting may be needed.
