Hello! Just sharing a spawn-fruiting substrate a la Pollock.
Bird seed, 6 chips of the worst dog food, straw, some coffee beans, coffee powder, 1/4 cup yerba mate, a spoon of green tea leaves.
Let's see what happen...

Tea waste: an effective and economic substrate for oyster mushroom cultivation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Tea waste is the residue that remains after tea leaves have been extracted by hot water to obtain water-soluble components. The waste contains a re-usable energy substrate and nutrients which may pollute the environment if they are not dealt with appropriately. Other agricultural wastes have been widely studied as substrates for cultivating mushrooms. In the present study, we cultivated oyster mushroom using tea waste as substrate. To study the feasibility of re-using it, tea waste was added to the substrate at different ratios in different experimental groups. Three mushroom strains (39, 71 and YOU) were compared and evaluated. Mycelia growth rate, yield, biological efficiency and growth duration were measured.
RESULTS: Substrates with different tea waste ratios showed different growth and yield performance. The substrate containing 40-60% of tea waste resulted in the highest yield.
CONCLUSION: Tea waste could be used as an effective and economic substrate for oyster mushroom cultivation. This study also provided a useful way of dealing with massive amounts of tea waste.

This section isn't for oysters
Mushroom Cultivation (123 viewing) This forum is dedicated to all aspects of cultivating psychoactive mushrooms.
Growing oysters or seeing if the same holds true for cubensis? Oysters eat almost anything

Tea is going to be high in cellulose as plant material cubes will leave a lot behind so you're going to have to be ultra good with clean spawn and proper pasteurization
