Before you start...Do you have a Pressure Cooker and a Dehydrator? I highly recommend getting both!

If you're worried about the quality of your tap water you can always use a PUR or Brita faucet filter




Right.... But then you do have the up front cost of the filter mechanism.  Although it would pay for itself within a year I am sure.

My tap water bruises my subs..... It is treated with chlorine at the water plant as most taps are.  Why would you want that on your sub?  I use distilled or drinking water because it is a dollar a gallon and I can afford it as poor as I am. 

        It is just an easy step in the process that makes ME feel a little better.  Also I have gotten subs in the past to flush seven and eight times with NO MOLDS before they were spent.  Using distilled water to mist with could be partly to thank as it helps potentially minimize the amount of overall contaminates that the colonized substrate is exposed to.  Just my thoughts on it.. :thumbup:

        I myself also played outside, drank out of garden hoses, swam in rivers, drank crick water, cooked my own crawdads, all that good stuff... But I am not a colonized mushroom substrate fending off unwanted competition like bacteria and molds. 

        I like to give my subs all the help they can get....:mushroom2:



But you are fending off shit you dont want...and you cant live off distilled water




For arguments' sake I don't drink distilled water all the time (I drink tap and sometimes bottled spring) and a mushroom sub gets it's 'nutes primarily from the substrate itself and not the water so that seems irrelevant.  So as a TC cronicr- san what kind of water do you use and what would you recommend then as a misting water??  Distilled, tap, filtered tap, or bottled spring or drinking water??  Lol...:shrug:

Buy the big jugs of spring water. it would be better than distilled water. Or one of those Brita filters that you can attach to your faucet. If your water is simply high in sulfur mixing with the chlorine in your water can cause it to become be yellowish. I think your tap water might be fine to use regardless.

That's Massachusetts, USA. Worst state I've ever lived in and not because the water. I've looked into the water filters but you have to buy the device plus keep buying replacement filters and those tend to cost as much as the device itself.

Try a set next round with just tap water, and see if it works. Cause hey fuck it if it works, you don't have to buy distilled water anymore.

Ziran, that's not a bad idea and now that I think about it when I was doing cakes I'd dunk them in that. Though sometimes it's not always that yellow.

"Distilled" water is acceptable for infants.... Distilled is recommended because it is steam distilled and clean.

Nope. Just mist whenever it needs it, and be careful not to over saturate your sub and you'll be good to go :super:

If the yellow is the mycellium turning a yellowish cream color, thats from drying. But it usually happens from an uneven substrate. The raised parts dry faster than the low parts

If its a yellow liquid, its metabolites, its fighting some bacteria. You'll still get fruits.
