Yep. The real pros don't even produce mushrooms, just mold and bacteria to feed compost piles and gardens

Please refrain from asking questions like these. It's nobody's business what others
choose to do with their cult. Mind your own and do what you want with yours.

If it helps, use your imagination

You all need to prepare for a coco coir shortage - boats coming from India are prohibitively expensive so it’s either a price hike or supply chain disruption coming soon. Take this from someone who imports it by the container for his day job...

I stopped in my hydro store the other day and he’s got the 5kg blocks for $11, I forget the brand but I do believe I’m gonna get a block to try out




That's what I'm using. Not sure it's same brand obviously but yeah a 5kg block of coir was $11 and less than half way through it.
Man, your right Josex, we are spoiled apparently. I paid full retail price for my presto 23 and it was below $80 I think. Given I haven't found any of these insanely cheap AA everyone else keeps finding but for the most part yeah it seems like everything you need for mush cult can be found with ease and not too expensive. And like (forgot their name and don't want to go back a page) said, with the amount of info available on here there is really no reason to not get fruits here.

I’m pretty excited to be giving a couple friends my first ever fruits.

They’re going to make some tea out of 42g wet.

Wish I could join them but my area is on COVID lockdown and my wife isn’t cool with me skipping curfew to get high as fuck.

Feels like I’ve joined the cult for real now.

Already a head of it. I use bestcob corncob horse bedding pellets. Corn is abundant in the US and produces alot of biproduct. Corncob is made of the same stuff coir is made of; a combination of lignin and cellulose. I can get 40 lb. bags for less than $10. 1 dry qt equals 5 qts of substrate when hydrated. 1 qt weighs around the same as a small brick of coir. It doesn't hold as much water as a brick of coir but the prep is just as easy. I just add the pellets to a pot of boiling water, put the lid on and let it cool.

I will admit that I haven't tried it on its own. I usually add a brick of coir and 2 qts of corncob pellets to 6.5 qts of boiling water.

My presto 23 cost me $141 including all taxes etc. to get to the UK earlier this year, ebay.

Just saw someone is selling UK stock for £330 on eBay right now. Wow




I'm in the states and I paid 160 for my presto 23. It was right in the middle of pandemic and It may have very well been the last one in existent. I searched everywhere online to no avail. All major retailers were out of stock. I found it at the mom and pop hardware store 3 blocks from my house. The box was a dingy yellow color and covered in dust. Looked like something you'd find at an antique store. The store owner said, 160... but it was worth more to me than gold at that moment. Now they're back in stock at wal-mart for like 80 bucks lol.

Shit Iambrownbear, I'm going to check into that. Definitely lots of corn around here, so I'm sure I can find it somewhere. Any chance you would know if TSC carries it?

Holy fuck!! Just did a quick google search.
$0.30/kg on alibaba! minimum order is 1 kilo. TSC would definitely be easier so I'll likely go there but holy fuck that's cheap

You can get them for around $160-$250/ton if you order 5 tons. LOL

Yeah, I'm definitely gonna try some of that. Read through some of their product info and looks promising.

On a somewhat related note, I may have an opportunity to get literal tons of free grain but only after it has been used from brewing. I assume the alcohol the would remain in it would be detrimental or prohibitive to myco growth. If there perhaps a way to soak/rinse the grains enough to dilute any alcohol left in them to make the usable?
I have a feeling it would turn to mush in the PC and isn't worth the trouble but figured it's worth a shot to ask. I know I can't be the first to have this thought/opportunity and the fact I don't see people doing it suggests there is a good reason for that.

Edit: Iambrownbear, have you tried the animal bedding or any of the others or just the horse bedding? I assume the difference is likely the mill size, and the cobsorbent and diamond dry are likely more abrasive. Just curious if there is a difference in preformance.

There won’t be alcohol in brewing grain. It’s the sugar source for fermentation, but only the liquid wort is fermented, the grain is removed long before that. It is spent, ie most sugars removed. I read someone here using it, but did have some pretreatment/supplement needed.

Neat.
I'll start digging then and see what I can find. Not that grains are expensive for the amount I would be using but fuck, free stuff rocks! Plus I'll likely be selling hydro produce to this brewery in the near future so it would just be so damn perfect if I can make them work.

I’ll introduce you to an issue I’m having. So materials were one print fairly fresh. Two sterile swabs. Two agar plates from the batch same mix same environment. Kept the same swabbed the same. So I swabed on 1/1/21. I could see spores on both plates. One plate germed within 5 days. The other not at all. Swabs were taken at the same time from the same print. Plates were kept together. Now I may chalk this up to non viability but this isn’t the first time and I have other germ plates from spore I know are good not germ at all. Then swab them again and they germ fine. It has been 16 days since swabs were taken.  So any thoughts

GypsyBastard, I have only used the horse bedding. I would be willing to try the other products if I stumbled upon them locally. I just haven't looked for the other products yet. I've been pretty satisfied with the horse bedding.

Back in 2015-16 I was able to source shredded straw pellets that were sold as horse bedding at my local southern states. I bought the last pallet as they were discontinuing the product. I was a little disappointed but I'm excited again now that I stumbled upon the corncob pellets.

Call me strange but I would rather go cheap on my bulk sub than I would my grain.
