Anybody from the Philippines here? Need help
    #28645158 - 02/03/24 11:51 AM (3 months, 12 days ago)

I live in the Philippines and I am trying to get into growing mushrooms, but it seems a lot harder out here than in places like the US and Canada. For example, a lot of the items we need to grow shrooms are not available here in the Philippines. And I noticed the growers here, at least the ones I see on social media do different techniques than what I see on here and on youtube. If anyone here is from the Philippines, can you please help me out and give me some advice? And hopefully teach me hehe. I'm seeing a lot of Philippine growers on social media but they give no help at all smh.

Having trouble finding liquid culture syringes, the right grain spawn, the right tubs, coco coir (they only have coco peat here), injection ports and other lab type things you can only get in US, Canada, Europe, etc.
Right now I'm having trouble finding the best grain spawn. I can get brown rice, popcorn, or millet. I don't know which is best to use. No rye or anything like that out here in the Philippines. If there are any suggestions on which grain to use, or if there is another type of grain I didn't mention I can look up to see if I can get a hold of it? Please let me know.

And of course I would love to get good liquid culture syringes. I have KSSS right now and I'm able to get my hands on other strains but idk if these LC's are actually good. Does anyone know where to get LC's that ship to the Philippines? I'm hoping the ones I have are good, but tbh I doubt it. I just got it off of Shopee, which is like a bootleg version of Amazon here in Asia.

Of the three grains you got to choose from I would choose millet.

Coco peat is the same as coir.


So this covers quite a bit of the stuff that makes growing easy. Now how about a pressure cooker? You will need one if you want to use grain and you should also work with agar if you are going to make your own spawn. See if you can get spores instead of LC syringes. Cubes do grow where you are so getting spores should be easy. Starting with agar is only a little bit of a learning curve but in return you will be completely self sufficient. If you choose to do agar then doing no-pour dishes will be the easiest. A lot of containers can work for this as long as they are made from glas or  polypropylene (PP or recycling code 5) which are the most common suitable materials to work with.

Here are three very informative links about no pour agar and how to make yourself some.

Pastywhyte's Easy Agar Tek

Josex' Guide to No-pour Agar

Alien's Holy Grail No pour Agar unmodified containers


You can build a Still Air Box or SAB easy using a big plastic tub but it can be made from other materials as well. Only one side needs to be transparent. Shouldn't be too difficult to put something together that works.


When it comes to fruiting chambers then you don't need tubs to fruit your spawn. You can use any containers really...glass jars, buckets, trash cans.
I use glass or plastic jars to do smaller grows. 



Plastic bags do also work well.

You could also sterilize your substrate directly in the jar/container you are growing your mushrooms from, this is called bottle grows. It is a common method in the Asian edible industry.

Have you got space for outdoor grows?

There is a lot one can use without compromising the quality of work, I am sure you can find resources good enough to start growing mushrooms.
