I confessed I just chased down my mailman for my spawn replacement. He's like the laziest mailman ever. stuff gets listed as delivered and doesn't appear till a day later. I couldn't catch up with him and I wasn't going to run in this heat so I walked around the neighborhood until I found a nice mail lady who I explained it was time sensitive and that's the only reason why I'm complaining this time. As I was arriving home that lazy bastard was pulling out of my complex and gave me a wave and a smile. See now I can't complain cause he's nice and it's hot and that's a hard job. I just didn't want my spawn possibly getting ruined in the heat. Guess who's stuffing oyster bags tonight. This girl.

I'm going to admit I was busy this week and I may be a little out of my element. I have a 13" x 16' 4 mil poly tubing. I had plans to cut it in half. I'm thinking I might break it up even further into these XL grow bags 9.5" x 5.5" x 24" instead. I have no idea if 5 lbs of spawn is enough for the the tube or how many holes to cut in it for GE or how much cocoa mulch I even need to make or if I should pasteurize or sterilizing the cocoa bean shells. Seems like I'm only Charlie Sheen winning at this point.
Also can I ear this fluffy white oyster poof that came with my grain spawn about the size of my palm. It looks so yummy and fresh.

I confess the mental image of you spawn hunting your way through your hood and playing protective mamma to your heat threatened oyster babies just makes me crack the biggest smile. Way to show commitment BC!

You get back here with my babies and my grow bags and myc supplies you son of a bitch or I'll beat you down.
So I was thinking 5 gallon bucket and a pot of boiling water for my cocoa shell mulch. Just going to pasteurize a shit load of it for my oysters and start layering the XL bags. Not going to fuck with tubing this time. Then I'll stick them in my dark closet for a month or so to colonize and then proceed with putting them on shelves and cut a few slits.That should hopefully work out.

I just had to explain to my roommate with limited English skills to not throw away the maitake dowels in the fridge because they are not moldy and to just leave them be. I still don't know what I'm going to do with the 1000 dowels I got for free to make up for the moldy spawn in my last order. It wouldn't have been my first choice. I think they gave them to me because they were part of older inventory because all the dowels are a large white mycelial block. I'm learning about maitake as we speak but it seems really hard to grow so I may just leave them in the fridge till I move. This should slow the growth down and keep the safe rright? I don't want to kill my dowels. Maybe I can sell some on ebay. Do they ship well?

I thought you were talking about Wanda Carters boobs for a second Hamload. I was thinking there's no way those things are going to stop shaking when she runs.

WARNING: Huge rant below. Proceed with caution.
The guy upstairs was all close to me and up in my face because the chocolate smell from the mulch offended him and his kids delicate noses last night. What a piece of shit. Don't get all close and up in my personal space and look at me dirty because you don't like something. It's not my fault you sleep in the living room. Back up about 4 feet and say hey could you please do that downstairs because the smell is a bit strong for me. Like literally this stuff smells just like if you opened a bar of dark chocolate. And literally all I did was bring the bucket up pour the water in and go downstairs. Like what I'm supposed to carry a giant stock pot of boiling water down a flight of stairs. He can go fuck himself. Piece of shit. Next time he cooks something I don't like the smell of which is most of the shit he cooks I'm going to be like hey can you not cook that shitty smelling food it's wafting downstairs and offended me. If murder were legal I'd suffocate him by shoving his face in the wet mulch. And I'm only this angry cause he's always a douche. I'm so glad I'm moving.
EDIT: He just tried to tell me I couldn't use the pot I was using which is my fucking pot I was nice enough to put upstairs so they could use. He's like that pots the same. I was like no it fucking ain't it has straight metal handle and my pot has soft rubbery handles. I told him to back the fuck off because I'll do whatever the fuck I want with my shit.BTW I almost never get angry and I'm generally pretty laid back about most things. Like almost never and I'm so insanely angry. Uggh I need a joint but all I have is this shitty Ativan right now.
I was already pissed that I had to pasteurize more mulch because apparently cocoa shells don't do well with cooking. The plant material turns into a gel like substance making it too slimy and moist. It absorbed all the water which ended up being too much and I had to dump the bucket in my backyard. Don't piss me off when I'm already pissed about my mush cult damn it.

Now that you say it like that that's fucking hilarious.
I feel 50 percent less likely to commit homicide now. Ativan kicked in. New mulch is pasteurizing in the bucket and is up to a suitable field capacity.
I confess I ate the thick wads of oyster mushroom tissue on the top of the bag. Cut off the sawdust bit and it was like fluffy cauliflower in appearance with some spots that almost looked like gills. It was the most juicy tender mushrooms I have ever had or probably will have. If anyone knows a surefire way to grow just fluffy oyster tissue let me know. I fried it in butter and it made crispy little tender oyster nuggets.
