Lions Mane Agar >> Monotub
    #26938849 - 09/16/20 11:29 AM (3 years, 4 months ago)

I inoculated MEA Agar with Lion's Mane LC and its growing healthy mycelium.
What I'm wondering is, will Lion's Mane grow on Rye Berries spawned to coir in a monotub similar to cubes?
I remember RR saying pasteurized straw is good for Oysters.

What I'm wondering is if the same tek for cubes would work for Lion's Mane.

Not really.  They need much, much more air.  They also need wood.  Like fuel pellets or something similar.

Have some medicinal mushrooms and want to get the most out of them?  Try this double extraction method.

Fuel pellets for the spawn?

I'll increase FAE then. Would 50/50 Sawdust and Rye berries work? Or would I replace coir with sawdust/wood?

Now I'm imagining either ditching the rye berries completely and using wood as spawn, then spawning to coir? Or
50/50 Wood and berries as spawn, then spawning to coir.

I'm not sure.

No, use grain as spawn as you always would - ditch the coir and replace it with wood though. 

I'm not sure how you mean you're going to increase the FAE, but you won't get enough inside a monotub no matter what you do.  The mushroom will grow, but badly misformed and not great for eating.

Can you recommend a tek for growing  lion's mane? I have only grown cubes until now.

Lipa's bucket tek on hardwood fuel pellets is the easiest way I can think of.  Filter patch bags work great for this.
