Re: cow poo question [Re: Boogieman47]

Cow manure works fantastic. It's best to pick them dry and hard. You will need a wood chipper to shred it. It's very hard, more so than horse manure. You can mix it with any kind of other substrate/verm/coir if you want or use it straight.

Black kow is trash in my experience. I've tried to use it several times when it's been raining for 2 months straight and I can;t collect field manure. It's full of sticks and mostly dirt. And sometimes a grey clay wet stinky shit bag. I think there may be some regional differences maybe with those that have good luck with it. I hear some people say they use it straight from the bag. No way from the bags I have used before. You can smell the bacteria rotting it.

I know that pasty did his side by side with plain coir being better for him, but that is not my experience at all. I get way better quality and quantity mushrooms with good proper mixed and pasteurized substrates like hpoo/cpoo/coir/verm than with straight coir. You wont be growing any baby arm sized mushrooms on straight coir. Nearly always little dinky 5-10 grammers.

so it seems that most are saying to pick the cpoo thats dry as a popcorn fart.  i dont think ive ever seen wild mushrooms growing from poo thats that dry, usually a little aged and definitely not fresh. so any reasoning behind using the poo thats so dry? 
not saying its wrong to use cpoo thats that dry just trying to figure this shit out. heh heh

Because the cows piss on their shit and you font want any ammonia left on it .. you will mix the poo up with other ingredients and then bring to field capacity (water content) on your own

Also because who wants to pick up a smelly wet cow shit....it's easiest to shred and store and mix into subs when it's dry.

You want field aged manure, thats all that really matters.
Stable manure often has woodchips in it and this is where you will find manure with amonia in it, they arent looking for bullzeye points in the field.
Cow manure is heavy and holds lots of water so try mix with another bulk sub

It doesn't matter what i think of you...all that matters is clean spawn
