yea boys! one ray of sunshine and everybody going out making beds!  Made an Allenii bed yesterday. doing subaeruginosa, azurescens and semilanceata this weekend. Also experimenting with a store bought mulch and baeocystis, I tossed those sawdust bags as they were not doing anything. More pics coming soon!

Can you move your azzie myc to an outside patch, if there is still some frost to be expected? Or is it better to wait till after the last night freezes are over. (locally in the NL, that will be around May 15th).
Not that I have enough spawn atm to mive outside yet tho. I planned for move outside in May. Hope to have three spawn bags per patch to use by that time.
Any tips on spawn to new chips ratio if I'm aiming at some fruits this fall?

don't think it will be an issue. the sooner you start the better, fruits are definitely possible.

Damn LT thats tight envious that you have an all out farm ranch! Those blocks look thickkkkk
I know we mainly talk about active woodlovers on here but I have some Reshi on grain. Does anyone have a recipe or a link to a good bulk recipe for them?

Have you seen pastywhyte's write-up on doing reishi in a mono tub. He absolutely smashed it.

I'm a relative noob in these parts, but since everyone's talking Azzie/Pan beds at the moment, I've got 7 quarts of Azzie spawn I'm planning to put to bulk next weekend in a combination of sawdust blocks and various containers with alder shavings. Hoping to make 3 beds by the end of March. I think my timing is pretty much spot on. I'm in Zone 7b, which says last frost April 15th, but I think I could go to the earth earlier than that, especially now that this crazy winter event is over. We've seen more snow in the past week than I've seen at one time in the Mid-South in my lifetime (42 years).
If you want to follow my bed planting, I have a couple threads going - Azurescens Advice? in Mushroom Cultivation and My Outdoor Azurescens Experiment in my journal.
Cheers!

And on another note, my first successful Lion's Mane grow on a sawdust block is working on its second flush. Once that substrate is spent, can I take that and inoculate a downed tree or log with it?

Love that tree Alan made.
Adrenochrome you’re asking where ovoid’s fit in terms of potency right? I think a lot more tests need to be done I’ve heard that chart is wrong. I am curious how much variation there would be between different varieties of the same species over large swaths of tests.
As it stands now I would guess ovoid’s would fit in either after cyanescens or tamps.

Hard to say with wild specimens because the potency varies so greatly I've had ovoids that were on par with azzies and ovoids that produced absolutely no effects. Unless widespread sampling is done I dont think you can definitively say how strong a species is. Cubes for example, if you had ape compared to ordinary pf cubes the potency is roughly double.

I’ll let you all know how this goes, I hate throwing 25¢ away after one use, so I’m trying to keep a good bit of crumbs and such myc over in the bags, and just refilling them with sawdust. I’d reuse these bags anyway, and figure I might as well store them full and maybe they will colonize?
 Question, do any of y’all case your outdoor beds with peat? Seems like I saw that somewhere

I have mixed peat in before but usually leaves are a better choice for casing. Peat is good cheap additive for water retention. Once its wet it tends to stay that way. Wouldn't hurt putting a few of those big blocks of it in if you can get it cheap locally

My Weraroa var. subsecotioides jars are coming along well. Still waiting for a clean sample from the (filthy) wild weraroa var. weraroa swab I got. Might have to resort to antibacterial agar at this rate. Anyway, I'm gonna try be trying to grow em indoors, hopefully it goes well.

Good luck!
Since my debacle with the Ps. semilanceata substrate, I've been trying something else. I bought a big bag of mulch and sterilized some in boxes which I then inoculated with semilanceata and subaeruginosa. so far, it seems to working very well. both species took off on the substrate although the suba is colonizing faster.

I also made a mix of potting soil and mulch (no treatment) and inoculated that with leftover spawn from the first test. the mix is in a shoebox. one week in, I'm noticing trichoderma and penicillium in the boxes so this isn't going exactly as planned. I'll move those boxes outside now into the garage but I'll probably just dump them if there is no improvement.
Finally, I dumped some mulch in a big tote (no treatment) and inoculated that with baeocystis yesterday. too early to tell if it's going to work but I'll keep my fingers crossed.

One of my azurescens beds gave this second flush a little while back. It's a wild clone from the OR coast. It tends to throw out some pretty dense clusters. This is off of a small buried block which was planted late summer.
