How are yields on aspen chips?
    #23893993 - 12/04/16 01:40 PM (7 years, 2 months ago)

I've been looking to start an oyster mushroom farm.

Lately I've been considering my options for substrate:
Hardwood sawdust and pellets have to be shipped in, nowhere local sells it.
I'm violently allergic to straw. Absolutely hate prepping it too.
Pine sawdust could work, but I've read yields are lower.
This property has probably at least 100 quaking aspens (Populus tremuloides), so I was curious if I could just rent a chipper and chip a few trees once or twice a year...

Does anyone know how the various species of oyster perform on aspen chips, would I need to supplement?
How about other generas like Shiitake, Maitake, Reishi?
I searched Google and Shroomery but all the info seems pretty dated.

Aspen (poplar) is fine according to Aloha Medicinals, see here. Good luck  :thumbup:
