hardwood soak in molasses?
    #28392674 - 07/11/23 04:40 PM (1 year, 6 months ago)

heyo,
was reading a stamets book and was talking about when soaking hardwood pellets add a little molasses to it.
is this useful/helpful/anything related to those two?

II do not find any use for it. If growing wood loving mushrooms, the wood is what they need. Molasses may add some carbs, but at the cost of having to sterilize the substrate. Unsterilized wood pellets can work pretty good. Unsterilized supplemented sawdust will be a mold farm. If you are going to the trouble of sterilizing your substrate, just supplement with soy hulls or wheat bran. It’s cheaper than molasses, likely a lot easier to work with, and is pretty much the industry standard for growing gourmets that like hardwood fuel pellets.

Stamets isn't such a good source to follow nowadays for cultivation, to be blunt. Much of what he said is either outdated, or inaccurate.
