First Timer with unexpected large amount of resources to work with.

So about 2 weeks ago my brother took a shot at cultivating these little fuckers with no luck, he surprised me with two syringes (Golden teachers and Azures) in the mail and since then I've been reading on my free time about mushrooms so much that old lady raged on me last night.

I ordered a midwest bulk tub and a couple of the 5 grain bags alder wood chips and loaded up on sterilizing products and other mushroom basics.
Well I am a home brewer of 20 years and a MMJ patient and home grower of 10 (20 counting before prop 215). So i have quite a selection of ingredients grains/malts and what have you for brewing containers, cooling/heating spare fridges mini fridges and as for growing lights R/O water foggers drippers and assortment of soil amendments hydro.



recipe 420 soil bu's blend bio dynamic compost worm castings roots 707 happy frog soil rainforest soil bone meal blood meal coco coir perlite Vermiculite bat guano insect frass volcanic rock charcoal purpose fertilizer * Ingredients: Fish Bone Meal, Blood Meal, Feather Meal, Rock Phosphate, Langbeinite, Greensand, Humates and Kelp Meal humid acid hops coffee grounds kelp meal alfalfa meal fish meal neem meal fish bone crab shell oyster shell gypsum glacial rock dust azomite Mykos mycorrhizae Azospirillum brasilense Fox Farm nutrients line and humboldt's secret line



So I am still waiting on my bulk kits, I have a super soil recipe for the azures composting now cut with large amount of alder cocoa coir, vermiculite pine cones wheat grass and rye seeds to recreate a sandy lignite rich soil, I plan on growing in a mini fridge or a full fridge with foggers keeping humidity up stacking trays with said compost layered with soaked cardboard and perlite and alder chips and possibly growing a wheat grass with the azures, I have a assortment of metal halide and high pressure sodiums cree cobs and full spectrum leds (not entirely sure if mushrooms, work with full spectrum cob chips any know?) basically recreating that environment. throwing this setup together would take a afternoon.



I am a new grower and this is all just ideas and planning as the keep it simple stupid method to all things seems to work best.
late last night i made a couple different cultures karo BRF LME un-sulfured molasses with a small amount of H202, in little plastic contains with seran wrap sandwiched between the lid alcohol soaked cotton balls on the lid held down with band aids. half are a showing good signs


I have 3/4th of the needles left in the fridge, trying to get both environments setup for azures and teachers. If anyone has any tips, ideas or would like me to test anything I am game.
as for using super soil compost for the bulk container that is going in the fridge should i pasteurize, im reading conflicting articles on azures.
Well thanks for the help ill keep updating.

Get your agar right the fuck out of that sprouter homie. During colonization you do not need humidity.
Just put in a cool dry place. Keep it away from your ganja. AWAY from it lol.
After your agar is all good and colonized, I would make a liquid culture using Light Malt Extract and bottled water. PC for 45min@15psi. Get a sterile syringe with sterile water(can pressure cook some bottled water if need) Put a drop onto the agar and disturb the myc and suck up the myc water and squirt into your lc.
I would use Wild Bird Seed or Rye grain and get your agar onto grains.l liquid culture isn't the best means for expanding spawn . Grain to grain transfers are the best for that. Use the search function to help you get into everything else.
The alder chips and Azure's are going to be a fat mission for a new timer but good luck.
