Re: Gymnopilus cultivation [Re: Mr Piggy] * 5
    #29059989 -

I’m doing a little experiment with one of my 2 gym L. tubs that I made going straight grain to coir. Now, I have been told you can go grain to coir - specifically corn - but I used my WBS mix and I don’t have high hopes for it. What I have seen repeated instances of success with is coir+HWDP as a substrate.

I have 2 tubs: 1 that I am going to let run its course on just coir and grain, and 1 that I did at a lower ratio with no top layer in the same fashion. That second, smaller tub just got what I have been calling a “refeeding,” which is a bit of a misnomer because that already has a meaning in the hobby.

Here’s the tub before the refeeding. Fully colonized and hangin out.


Here’s the added top layer of half and half HWFP and coir. I didn’t pasteurize, just let it rip. I gave it some medium strength compression; I figure it can eat through logs so this should be easy.



I think if it goes south it will probably be due to the fact that I didn’t really prep the sawdust, but it’s ok. Lots more gym jars in the works that I’ll spawn in a more reliable way.

3 days in and the gym myc is working its way through and has broken the surface in one spot. The morphology is noticeably different, being pretty rhizo

:grannycheer:  Hell yeah.  By "gym l", do you mean you're running lutofolius or luteus?  The myc looks like luteofolius at a glance,  but couldn't be sure...

Good observation! Lutofolius, correct. Looks very unique on a plate, like icing sugar.

MrPiggy suggested a different type of wood, but seeing as though I had oak pellets and these tubs are preliminary experiments I went ahead and used them.

Have you run luteus before? Does it take well to LC? I’m going to make some gym LC soon too, so I’m curious.

Nice.  No, not luteus yet - but gym purpuratus and luteofolius both did super in grain water lc 50:50 and coconut sugar.  Assuming this was the latter.  (Luteofolius):
  Grows weird ob LC too.  Looked similar on brf 5g:250ml, but grew slow and didn't fill out as much.
The luteofolius subs look cool as they age, and form little (maybe pseudosclerotia? - Basically little yellowish bits like pins initiating,  but not....) shortly before pinning.  So fun to watch.  Yours looks great.

I see those psudosclerotias in my other tub, though I doubt that one will fruit. Just grain/coir. But the sub is full of them. Good to know, I’ll keep my eyes on them.

Yeah I hope you're hanging on to this coir only sub as long as it doesn't take up space. Ive had subaeruginosa on coir only for over half a year 😂 probably will never do anything but as long as it's not taking up space or contaminating, it can stay, rent free 😂

Also, was talking about purpuratus on agar the other day... It was already on grain and I forgot about it 😂 I'm just using hwfp/ coir on this next run. For the first time ever I took hydrating hwfp actually serious and seen you can get really fluffy and nice looking like coir. I'm hoping for faster nutrient breakdown and fruiting than what chips would provide for indoors

I think that’s the move for indoor grows. I think the chips benefit outdoor durability, but I THINK sawdust is gonna be enough.

Exactly, with chips, were looking at long term here (how long can we make this bed survive and keep feeding it etc.) indoor "man I'll be happy if I can get just a few grams..😕" 😂

I'm on board! Just called a friend for a G. aeruginosa print. He was like 'You weren't gonna start new projects for some time...?'

Print is in the mai

Super excited

Has anyone noticed gym luteofolius myc being really fragile to shaking on grain? I did 7 jars of wedges and they’re jumping off slowly. Looks like they may have been over jostled during that first shake. The move might be to leave them on top for a week or so

Yeah - slow to take off and to recover (referring to luteofolius, specifically.  Purpuratus seems hardier).  That said, I have seen some cultures far more vigorous than others with these.  Big gradient.

Gotcha. I don’t remember what the first few jars were like but these have been reluctant to take off. That tracks.

To yalls knowledge, are all gyms wall climbers or is it a luteofolius thing?

Purpuratus did.  Anxious to see how Supa's dilepsis behaves.  I assume they all are.

About 48 hours left and I think we can call the “refeeding” successful. The morphology compared to straight coir both mixed with spawn and as a top layer is hugely different.

Of course I’m not discovering anything here. Just catching up lol.



Here’s a side by side comparison of what it looks like when you feed gyms coir substrate vs 50/50 coir/wood

Straight coir:


50/50:
