Testing the T-Tek on Golden oyster
    #23740198 - 10/15/16 03:16 PM (7 years, 3 months ago)

Doing a new test using my updated T-Tek and Golden oyster.

   

This is 40g of WBS spawn, 14 months old.

Here is testing on used tea. I've uploaded an image of an analysis of raw tea leaves.

Almost as rich as grains, missing just vitamins: C, D and Biotin.
Starch free and trace sugars, energy from other sources.



Also lightly antibacterial.

Got results in 12 hours, detached mycelium also growing very strong.
Colour change due to digestion, thick radial outgrowth.

   

Visible variation from the seeds.

Awesome someone is doing this. I myself go through heaps of tea and I love the fact that we can use a waste product to grow mushrooms.

Is this tea spawn or do you hope to fruit from it?

I intend to fruit this all going well. But it can be used as spawn.
I have done so several times, works like sawdust spawn.

Getting results fast, managed to take surface shots using a focused beam.
Growth is very strong, below is the same spawn on WL Tek, no tea.

   

   

T-Tek vs WL Tek, an obvious winner already.

Forgot to mention, I am using 28% raw unused cheap tea, comes as tea flour in bags.
If you are going to use used tea, follow the write up and use 40-60%.

Raw will still contain all soluble nutrients and energy.
Which works like adding fertilizer and flour.

Would you recommend tea as an additive to sawdust to replace wheat bran?

You know I was thinking that this morning. It certainly works in exactly the same way.
Visibly they grow as strong as each other, only side by side will tell.

Will take some images when I get home from work.

Here is 48 hours on T-Tek, I have a cold draft to sort out.

   

Much stronger growth than previous tests.

Who would like to do a side by side comparison, grain flour or bran vs T-Tek?
I've not started with grain products yet, limited experience.

I'll probably try supplemented wood chips bran vs used tea with Shiitake. Not really what your doing but I have a heap of Shiitake spawn. I've heard Shiitake don't like too much supplementation so it might be better to do it with oysters.

Ok cool, I'd be interested in seeing results, even used tea without enriching.
Out of interest which are you starting with 40% or 60% used tea?

Here is day 3, sorry for the image quality. Thick growth, very strong.

   

What I thought where inactive seeds, now growing.

Side notes so far:

25g tea and more additives was faster, however more tea less additives is stronger.
More tea also means more antibacterial action, which works in two ways.

1: There is no starch in tea, its energy is complex and rich.
2: Chemicals present in tea inhibit bacterial growth.

Oyster's will breakdown everything as energy.

I don't think I'll add that much. Then again if I keep the experiments small like your then why not. :smile: Maybe I'll do 0%, 10%, 20%, 40% in 250ml size containers.

I do 250ml for test sizes, it can yield too. Else I do 1220ml (1.22L).

Here is 6 days, 40g tea. Now I leave it to mature then fruit it.

   

Still not sure which recipe is better.
