reishi usually goes through all kinds of morphology changes that make it look like it's contaminated. Usually looks
like mycogone but don't worry it's just blob formation. It almost always produces crazy colored metabolites that look
scary at first but it's jut what reishi does.

What kind of contam did it have?

Some asperilligus looking stuff and something I couldn't identify that was grayish and fuzzy wet mat with black specks which I could only assume to be spore pods , possibly wet pin mold that looked like what was in my oysters.

Also I see the blobs you are talking about forming and it's not like the bottom where it looks like it won't colonize right.

I smelled them and they smell nice so it must not be bacteria. I think it's actually starting to colonize the brown gross spots and looks nicer now. Maybe giving them some FAE helped strengthen it so it could fight back. Glad I got rid of the other sketchy looking green stuff.


Also what should I do with them now that they are all open like that. Just mist the tops? I was going to grow antlers but I don't want to close the bags up and allow any spores left to germinate.

Maybe I should have just stuck to cubes. :smile:

FINALLY! I just put something into fruiting that doesn't look or smell suspicious. It's a very rhyzomorphic strain of Purple Mystic. I have to make some substrate tonight too. Ahh the joys of learning how to pasteurize.

Heck yea!  I totally agree.  Nice work everyone.  Got the agar all mixed up, in its media vessel and into the sterilizer.  Decided to throw 5 grain water liquid mediums in the sterilizers for some blue & yellow oyster, as well as pan stip & ghost fungus cultures, plus probably a lions mane or Beech.  My purple mystic hasn't germiated yet, and I put it on agar 5 days ago.

I know it sounds crazy but I'm putting the baby birch polypore I found that I found yesterday on to agar. I'm not in a position right now to experiment with trying to make them actually fruit. I did read it is extremely difficult but possible. I just want to create a nice culture and someday when I learn how to do everything I will have it ready.

NICE! Hamload. I am getting a trametes versicolor, lions mane and blue oyster this weekend.

What substrate and method works best for you for growing lions mane?

Been growing them off of over incubated grains spawn just to get fruits for tincture making, but now I am going to have to step it up since there is a sustainable outlet for edible mushrooms.  I'll either bottle culture them in a few shotgun terrariums until a proper grow room can be erected, then I'll culture them in bags, and use a mix of hard & soft woodchips & sawdust lightly supplemented with bran, and gypsum (3%).  Lions mane are pretty easy to cultivate.

If I'm using worm castings in my mixture should I sterilize those? I am going to use dehydrated cow manure mixed with coir and some vermiculite and a little worm castings and gypsum. I think that sounds about right.

I was probably gonna do bottle culture for Beech and LM for now. Until I get more space. Got wood pellets and bran for them. Need to get more gypsum.

Worm castings can be pasteurized, but they are a little finicky like coffee spent grounds.  However, if you sterilize substrate materials, then you can go a little bit richer on the supplemtation & additives.  Be advised as to the mushroom specie's specific growth parameters, because some mushrooms such as Shiitake, and Ghost fungus, do not like to be supplemented that high, and will blob as a result of over supplementation.

For lions mane?  Don't do that.  They are a wood loving specie.  Use hard wood chips & sawdust.  You can supplement a little bit of worm castings for nitrogen if you'd like still, but I'd keep the dung based substrates away from my lions mane culture.

Oh I'm making cube substrate. Thought it wouldn't hurt to drop a few cups of castings in for a 64 quart.

Shitake blob sounds fun. You mean like one giant blob with shitakes all over it or just button shaped shitake blobs? I saw a blob of supplemnted shitakes on here that looked like a white mountain covered in little shitakes in a small bucket. I forget where.

Why do I insist on taking on big projects when I'm this high. Probably because it's the only time I'm not in pain.

Ugggh. I'm starting to think I might not be cut out for this. Went to dump my humus and manure in and there's tiny flea looking bugs and mycelium in it. It's already on top of my nice coir, verm and worm castings mix. I don't want to throw it out. Does that mean I have to sterilize it? Like I really don't want to fuck up and pasturize it at the wrong temp and have a competing temperature and some kind of flea looking dirt bugs.

Yeah. They don't look like fungal gnats. They are like way smaller. I poured hot water on them. But really I think I'm just gonna sterilize the shit. Either that or I'm out a whole container of substrate.

The fungal gods do not approve of my cultivation.
