I recently did some trials which you can see in my signature under Grain Quest. I did a cold soak, a hot soak, and no prep with WBS. As long as the inoculant is good, any of those work great. With WBS the important parts are happening in the PC.

TL;DR - cold and hot and flash prep will grow mushrooms.

No prep as in dry WBS in the jar?

the roots would get all jumbled.

if any seedling is sick or has any fungal rot it could spread to the other seedlings.

16oz solo cups for the win.


just poke a hole in the bottom for drainage. i used an old mono tub to transport them all tho :crazy2:


Mushboy +++ on solo cups. I added some slits along the side for extra aeration. And they clean up fine in the dishwasher. :wink:

RH more than a couple of inches from the surface of the substrate/cake doesn't mean much. That's why misting from above the substrate/cake, not the walls, or the lid or any of that, is recommended by experienced cultivators here.

Light isn't a major trigger for mycelium.  For example you don't have to colonize in the dark. That said, I do keep my agar jars in the dark mostly but don't worry if they are exposed to light sometimes.

You're not likely going to get a concrete answer here. I haven't seen or heard of any tests that have actually been done on checking if this is a thing. I'd also argue that the effect of keeping a plate in the dark or on a light cycle would be imperceptible to us.

Cool, thanks. I was actually wondering whether I should give them some light (or a light/dark cycle) since mine are also mostly sitting in the dark.

I, as well as many other people here hold a belief that light is beneficial to mycelium in all stages of growth. I wouldn't go out of my way to light my agar storage though.

Alright, that's fair, thanks!

Maybe there's research done for edible inoculate production but I wouldn't even know how to begin to search for that.

Anyway it's not really important it was just a thought that crossed my mind when I saw all my petris just sitting in the dark.

So you are saying I shouldn't buy a cute mushroom shaped night light for my petris? (they exist on Amazon, I checked)

As in load the birdseed dry, add a cup of water for every 2 cups of seed you have, and PC.

Is it okay to fruit pans and cubes together in the same fruiting chamber?

I want to colonize in shoeboxes and then move to a fruiting chamber once ready. Just worried about spore contamination (don't want cubes taking over pans). I know that once the mycelium fully colonizes the substrate it becomes more resistant to contamination, but just want to make sure I'm not wasting my time by doing this.

I doubt that spores will contaminate, or grow come to that on your other substrate. Even if they did start to colonize, by the time they're even half way, you'd probably have harvested your tub and it would be pretty much done I would think.

I'm currently simmering my WBS for 30 minutes, drying and then pc'ing. I like the sound of this way to prep the WBS, going to give it a try next time I run some grain jars.
