Does this substrate look ok?
    #26752020 - 06/17/20 03:44 PM (3 years, 7 months ago)

Hello!

Does this substrate look normal and healthy? I used wild bird seed and I believe the mushroom spores used were from an Albino A+ syringe. I can't confirm because I also had B+ and forgot to label the bags. So one is Albino and the other is B+. I was just curious because I have never seen a brick so white, lol. My other brick isn't nearly as white... Thanks for reading!

Uh oh, thats straight grain? It looks healthy I suppose but you don't often see blocks of just bird seed like that. You're supposed to mix the colonized grains with bulk substrate of some kind, the grain provides the nutrition and the bulk sub provides the water and surface area for fruiting. That thing will probably put out some mushrooms but not like it would if spawned to bulk.

Some people would "case" grains back in the day which means putting a layer of non-nutritious/bulk substrate on top of them in a tray or something but that's less effective for cubes.
