Could you do the same thing with jars of contaminated grains??  I was thinking that would be a good way of getting something from them at least...

Yes you can it depends on how contaminated the jars are and if the mycelium can outrun it.

What about getting a large flower pot? I live in apartments and don't have a yard.

You should ask about breaking up your substrate in to said pot, as this is what I was unsure about. :wink:

Oh haha yeah how about that? Will breaking it up affect anything negatively? Or is outside the way to go? I have a 66qt tub that contamed

This thread popped up for me a little while ago while researching ways to deal with spent substrate.

It influenced me to start a small substrate compost pile amongst the garden to deal with spent and extra materials.



Started the pile in early May. Comprised mainly of raked leaves & leftover garden soils (mostly peat, composted cow dung, black earth, vermiculite & perlite).

Been discarding cubes and oyster projects into the pile, including:
-Coir/CVG prep leftovers
-Spent CVG substrate
-Leftover colonized alder sawdust (oyster)
-Rye grain prep leftovers
-Suspected contaminated Rye grain (no visible mold)
-BRF cake prep leftovers
-Spent BRF cakes
-Leftover stalk trimmings from harvest
-Paper towels littered with spores from harvesting/drying stages
-aborts

Was happy to see the pile seems to be full of life... lots of earthworms, lots of mycelium and a small patch that must have sprung up a day or two ago!

I haven't given it any care whatsoever, but i may just have to start giving it some more attention :grin:

Nice work, locospacebean!

I took some cedar chips and soaked them.

Bottomed watered the dry/spent substrates(Little less than 1/4 of a cup).

Laid out bottom layer of soaked cedar chips on the ground.

Laid down spent substrate flat on top.

Laid top layer of soaked cedar chips lightly on top of the substrate.

The pile gets water daily.

Hoping for the best. :sunny:

Awesome Thread! :takingnotes:

Couple shots of my outdoor disposal area. All my contaminated subs get buried, bacterial & spent subs get covered in organic matter depending whats on hand, & all the excess CVG I have left over after spawning gets chucked there too. After so long I cover it all in soil then repeat, going to try and use it in the garden after awhile decomposing.  Bacterial APE shoe boxes, fruit with a pretty shade of blue, and a shot where the mycelium colonized a pine stick with some CVG next to the sub and fruited

:hi: Hi Hamloaf, I know your got to be busy with that new spawning room I saw you post in the cult pic of the day, hope all is well!

Fern gully was also one of my childhood favorite's.
I watched it tripping and it was amazing!!!



I think these guys have aborted or either badly bruised.



Success!!! :sunny:

It's been raining everyday for the past week so I'm sure they are loving that and the cloud cover.

I really didn't think I was going to get anything.
But that shows you how much I know! :dancer:

Do you think there's the slightest chance if I let the fruit mature and spore.
It will spread?

Or just eat it...:shroomin:

You could do something like harvest the fruit, take a spore print on some papertowl and then just add the papertowel into the garden.
Seems to biodegrade pretty well and i like to think it's making a difference by keeping the spores in the ecosystem, although i dont know if it's actually effective or not.
The mycelium in my garden seems to be spreading really well but i do just let the majority of the mushrooms live out their entire life cycle. It does seem to help though.

I'm going to try this!
Thanks man!

:goodluck: with your substrate pile!!!
Those ferns make it look like a very majestic spot!!!
Love it! :sunny:



Quite a few aborted but I'm proud of my one for sure!!!:awesomenod:

It's been raining for a week and is going to continue for another.
So hopefully they will continue to emerge.
And my plants don't drown...:frown:

Couple weeks ago i found a jar of inoculated rye grain that i'd totally forgotten about.  It had been hidden away for over 2 months and had started pinning like crazy, as you can see.


I was feeling lazy and decided to simply dump the jar into a gardening pot comprised of about 40% composted cow manure, 25% garden soil, 25% perlite & 10% chopped up wheat straw.
Spawn to substrate ratio was probably about 1:2.

Left it on my patio and about 2 weeks later:
