    #23790761 - 11/01/16 09:29 AM (7 years, 2 months ago)

I'm knocking up some reishi jars today or tommrrow.

I still need to do some reading. I'm unsure what type of wood I wanna use and sub.

Could a guy do a mono tub or coir mixed with a percentage of wood pellets or sawdust?

I friend of mine being a rookie, inoculated a peat mixture and he got reishi cons to form. I'm gonna hit him up right now and ask him exactly what he used as I sit here remembering this lol... I'll post here what he says... it was interesting if I recall correctly

I'm shooting for several monos of reishi. So I'm thinking is coco and wood combo doable for monos?

Do people use pure woodpellets for their monos?

Thank u for the advice

I have used straight pellets, coir and verm, and a mix of them all. Seems like they work pretty well all around. Coir has a fair amount of lignin in it so I suspect it is going to perform well in this setting.

Rock on. I wasn't sure to say the least.

I plan to use rye berries as my spawn.

Maybe I will do one mono w pure coco and verm. Another with a mix a verm coco and wood pellets. And one more mono with mainly pellets.

Ur pretty confident just a coco/verm mono would perform tho? Inoculated with colonized rye spawn?

I was gonna try it regardless but I feel u was lead to believe pure coco would possibly only work in a setting where Ll was used Along with ur pasty invitro tek.

But me personally imagining it all  I can't come up with why pure coco would work w ur invitro tek and not a mono w pure coco

Well you need grain spawn as well or else suppliment the coir. If I'm doing a Ganoderma mono I'm definitely going to use a decent spawn ratio. LC to plain coir isn't going to do well.

Of course, that was my plan :smile: I think I confused ya... trying to explain my thoughts/confusion lol..

Straw seems to have a higher lignin content is that correct? So maybe a straw and coir combo or pure straw?

I like coco for simplicity I'm lazy lol

Cardboard has produced some very good results as well.

Coir has more than enough lignin if you want simple.

I was actually planning on making a few bags with coir or a coir mix, but then my master spawn started fruiting, so next round.
Interesting in GGMM one of the few mentions of coir is in reference to reishi, I should go back and look at that.

Coir would be a good addition for sure. I would recommend doing different % mixes in each bag and see what works best. I bet the coir can hold a lot more moisture than most other substrates.

In cube world we see many coir grows outperforming manure because it holds water so much better.

Agreed, max BE requires 90% water content with no outside input throughout the substrate.
If a fruit body has 90% water content, to get 100% from dry you need 90% water.

Simple maths, 65% wont = 100% BE, 75% and 80% are closest.
90-95% substrate water content attracts mold.

Well, all the bags had some form of contam or another so I pitched them as opposed to seeing if they would overtake it.  The boil tek may have worked had I spawn them a little heavier...only did 1/2 qt. per bag.  However, I still have the modified WL tek batch and will update soon.  I've also got a few jars of wheat spawn that are colonized and starting to "pin" on top if that's the correct term...more like "globe" or "bubble".  Anyway, I'm gonna shake the shit out of them and see how they do as spawn.  Are you starting to see pinning in the bags?

To be honest, I expected them to do exactly what they did, so I'm not too broke up about it.  That reishi strain is so vigorous I'll just noc some properly sterilized bags up this weekend and be right back in it...how did your tub turn out?

Sorry to hear that, my bags with a heavier spawn are like night and day with how fast they colonized and started fruiting. Those had a full quart, the rest of my bags were about 1/2 a quart and they are still doing good, just WAY slower than ones with more spawn.
I'm about to upload some pictures right now, I can finally see a little better through the condensation and they are definitely starting to pin on the tops.

Update,
Everything is going good, the bags with heavier spawn (1 full quart) are pretty far ahead of the rest which got 1/2 quart. Any extra or pooling water has been sucked back into the blocks and they have got rock hard and consolidated.
The mass growing on the sides looks awesome, I'm wondering how those are going to grow out, it's hard to tell but looks cool none the less like one big reishi growing around each bag.


And I can finally get some pictures of the tops, seems to be coming in good.

:cool:
