Gifts from MorePies: 55gal Drum
    #24178842 - 03/20/17 08:38 PM (6 years, 10 months ago)

So I recently visited MorePies to check out his up-and-coming mushroom farm. I have him a plate of the Bioluminescent and he hooked me up with a fully colonized jar of Brahtslavian Oyster (sp?) which I G2G'd and a fully colonized10lbs bag of an oyster who's name escapes me which I fruited two days ago (no pins yet).

The grain spawn he used for the Braht was 50/50 milo and oats. I really like this consistency as it gave the numerous inoculation points as well as had larger reservoirs of nutes (which while not scientifically proven to be a thing I just have a hunch about vs going 100% milo or millet). Also his oats were much smaller than mine- which is quite interesting.

Anyways here's the jar



And the bag



My GH has been running fairly optimally - I'm going to play with a timer though as I still have yet to try MorePies floating fogger method my long shifts have had an impact in growth. Will keep this updated with their growth, and will be running side by sides with the Braht. Stay tuned

fully colonized 10lb bag!! lucky :awesome:    I am interested in that 'bratslavian' (sp) oyster. I think I had seen it for sale from ashenville fungi or aloha. Looked like an interesting one

Glad we could get together and have some good times in Austin!

I know what's in that bag and I'm not telling  :headbang:

The mix grain is nice, but unless you cook the milo separately, it's moisture contentis always a touch dry. That said, I do a 20hour soak starting with hot tap water. I strain for an hour, add gypsum then cook.

And make a darn float already!

MorePies I have a question since your using mixed grain, do you notice any difference?
I'm thinking about wild bird seed and reading about composition variation.

So is there any difference to speed, strength and life length?

When using the mix to spawn bags, the bags run faster. I spawn by weight, not volume, so a dense spawn has more inoculation points. Nutritionally, milo is tops.

How long grain spawn lasts in the fridge depends on the temp swings in the fridge, humidity,  and how good your filter is. I've used this mix after 5 months in the fridge and it's been OK. Not ideal to save it that long. 

The more variety of grains in your spawn mix used  the harder it is to get moisture content right. Lots of folks make great spawn with wbs. I've never tried it as I have a feed store near by.

A dense spawn sterilizes thoroughly as there are less air pockets. My contams in spawn jars are very very very low, and I think this helps.  Improving the rest of my technique helped more.

Good information, mate! I've been thinking about milo or millet for awhile now so I think I might try this out for my next run.

The bag finally consolidated enough to pop out some happy pins! And the oat spawn bags are coming along nicely!






You can tell the bag got a little dry on my 16 hour work day on Sunday- but I feel like it is recovering well. Still need to make that damn float :facepalm:

Broke as fuck + bleach cleaning= not optimum chairs. Thanks for noticing. I literally skip meals to afford all my Mycology stuff- I work 60-70 hours a week being underpaid competitively for 50. The only time I have to do just about anything is a night before a day off and I just don't take my meds and stay up and get a lot of mycology work done. My house is always a wreck, even when I take 2 whole days to scrub the fuck out of it. I've seen modest 1 room apartments with more square footage than my 2 bedroom shared house. But the rent is cheap and the neighborhood is good and the landlords are on top of service requests. If I worked at a competing restraint I'd at minimum make 10k more a year- but I'm invested in the people and the brand and I care enough about my fellow managers, my higher ups, and my "employees" (hate saying that- they are my coworkers) that I won't jump ship soley for more money. So I made the conscious decision to make less money because I know that if I had left when we filed for bankruptcy for a second time and every GM and Area Director left the company and we got bought out by a new company- if I had left then- my mentor and now GM would have lost her mind and the restaurant I so loved would have definitely shut down- and all my wonderful cooks and dish and servers and caterers would have been out of a job. And I just couldn't do that.

So yeah, thanks, thanks for pointing out how shitty my adornments are. The funny thing is with all my mushroom stuff there's not even hardly room for anyone to sit in that chair anyways. I know you probably mean no harm but shits been rough mate.

You sound like a good guy TA, best of luck! The restaurant business is though, maybe a marketeer could look into it.

Tried looking up this Brahtslavian Oyster but couldn't find anything, did find Aloha's BRAT oyster, is this the one? Very dark color, looks great.

I use bleach and boiling water to clean tubs, needles etc. You can flame needles dry.

True there is bleach fumes, but I put the lids on and leave to cool, or replace the lid for cleaning.
Definitely don't want to breathe that stuff in, use a mask, "The Dangers of Bleach".
