I just got my reishi culture today and have it on 3 plates of agar planning on making some li and then slants .. my few questions are i saw it was good to supplement with bran, wheat, or oats but i will be spawning to oats do i still need to mix other stuff in with the wood? I was going to do wood chips and saw dust i believe the wood i have is hardwood and pine... second i have new 66qt tubs unmodified what would be the best hole congifuration? Just drill two 1.5" on the short sides then use a sgfc lid? Also my sub how much should be used and could i just throw it in the pc naked and sterilize then dump into the tub? Thanks for any help

https://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/9958849#9958849 A good thread to read on reishi. You really don't need much air exchange for reishi. Remove the lid once a day or so is enough. Use a clear container to get light. Don't cook them in direct sunlight with the lid on.

Hey noob47, probably best to pasteurize if you're using a tub. Any supplementation that is pc'd and then exposed to air is going to contaminate immediately. I was thinking of doing both to see which did better...pasteurized in tubs and sterilized in bags. You might look at some of gr0wer's reishi stuff...he grows in bags with like 2 inches of sub...they only need air if you want them to conch, otherwise they'll grow antlers, which I'm guessing you already know.
