using spent substrate in passive compost pile?
    #27123250 - 01/03/21 06:01 AM (3 years, 25 days ago)

Every week or so i’ve been tossing my spent substrate and some extra chopped up straw into one big pile and i’d like to start mixing it in with other stuff over time to make a big compost pile for the following spring. it’s on a property where it’s under some pine/fir trees and gets rain/snowed on but i would like to eventually build a covered composting area. I know i could grow veggies and herb with the compost but would a secondary species like agaricus blazei or even stropharia work well with the spent substrate in the compost? and any suggestion for more things to add to the pile and in what proportion?

What is the end goal? Compost or mushrooms?

i guess mushrooms is the final goal, could a compost pile made up with spent cube substrate be used to grow any gourmet species?

sure can.
The garden giant like you mentioned above is a great candidate. agaricus would do ok if you add some manure to your compost.
Oysters will eat just about anything.
Spent cube subs will continue to fruit in the compost too.

here is a good page for you to read
