Good luck!

FL wild cube in a deep pot, a nice thick clump of mushrooms with more coming in. Not particularly exciting except this was cased grain from a jar so funky that Bootsy Collins would do a double take!





Some cacti soil in the bottom of the pot, a layer of crumbled spawn then more cacti soil on top. After a couple days, a good soak.

I love the color of the caps. They look robust in their growth.

Yoshi!

I found some big black plastic pots for plants at an estate sale.

the 20gal kind were $5 each.  They're not the extra-deep kind.



There are bigger ones, like probably 40gal, I could make an offer.

There are also very thin-plastic trash cans, but these seem much stronger and useful to have around for plants, if not for mushrooms.

I'd like to know if it would be best to drill more holes, and if you prefer trash cans because of the amount of airspace above the substrate. 

I'm specifically interested in woodlovers, and expanding mycelium in these; not so much in fruiting in these containers.

These nest within eachother, so I could fill with woodchips and spawn and stack more on top to keep their tops from drying out while colonizing.

Should I get the bigger ones?

I think alot of it depends on your climate. Mine is very hot/dry, in the bottom you can feel the humidity and it seems to stay consistent. For me, the bigger/deeper trashcans work best. SirPsycho did some pots that I believe he covered with plastic bags?

Thanks yoshi,

What climate zone are you in? 

How many inches of annual rainfall?

(or, what general region)



I'm still not sure why you choose clear plastic on top, instead of something that doesn't create a greenhouse effect, like a trashcan lid, or black plastic.  do you think they benefit from the light?

Plenty of humidity in the summers here so I get away with pots with most exotics. No need for an enclosure. I just have to protect from slugs and critters and keep things in the shade.




Probably going do a trashcan with semp this summer though. Seems like they stay super short and small here fully exposed. Canopies, but small fruits. The fruits in your cans are always so tall and majestic.

Im in the US, SW, zone 9b, about 7-8 inches of rain annually. Summertemps, typically over 100F up to 115F+ for months.
