More than one type of spore in the same spawn?
    #26352000 - 11/29/19 01:09 PM (4 years, 1 month ago)

Hi all,

I have been looing into what happens if you put more than one species' spores in the same substrate/spawn but am unable to find out the results of this..

Has anyone got experience mixing species within the same substrate and able to share the reults?

If you mean cube spores they will most likely fight it out for territory and nutrients. As cool as that sounds in war there are always costs and I think it would be at a loss of your fruits not being produced as much.

If you mean contamination then your fungi will try to fight it off, and if it is unable try to avoid that area. When the fungi is weakened by lack of nutrients it will succumb to the infection and that contaminate will likely move in.

How would you tell if the two spores made the connection and if so how would you know what one was which just spore (AA) or spore (BB) and or spore (AB)

He is asking about more than one species, not different varieties of cubes (which would be just one of the ways to cross strains varieties, if one wanted to do so).

The result of mixing species is going to be coexistence at best, the monokaryons of one species' spores will not fuse with that of the other. (That's pretty much what "species" means: mating compatibility.) Unless, that is, the species are very close and you have an impossible amount of luck and produce a hybrid species. This is something that probably happens very rarely world-wide, otherwise new shrooms would be popping up all the time. So I wouldn't bet on it happening in a lifetime (or a thousand) of making jars, unless advanced genetic techniques are used (if they even exist for shrooms).

Thanks for the responses!

I apreciate all the different bits of info. I was considering inoculating a substrate with 2 different types of spores and seeing if I could grow two kinds in the same substrate. I dont imagine there to be any real benefit such as increased yealds. More just a concept that I considered.

Does this mean that one could create their own variety of shroom by making a few generations of mixed substrates with different varieties of shroom. For example mixing a golden teacher with a mazatapec
