Black Pearl - Who's growing these? [Re: Mycolorado]
    #29575853 -

I absolutely love them! Lost my culture about a year ago then acquired another at the end of last season.  Had a bag flush through the filter over the winter... First bags this year are due to pin any day!!

:excited:

Anyone else growing these?? Let's hear about your experience with them!

I grow a ton of them every year. They're very tasty, and about as easy to grow as they come. I'm not big on going to market with my harvests, but the few times I set up a table at the farmer's market, the black pearls are among the first ones to sell out next to the pearl oysters.

Great looking stuff!  Thanks for the fix!  I've had multiple customers tell me they can't tell the black pearls apart from blue oysters!!!!? 


I found these guys tonight!!  I wasn't expecting anything this far along - they snuck up on me.  36 Hours until the market on Saturday - you think they'll make it?!  It's been on the cold side here, things are moving slower that I planned for :grrr:

I asked my wife if she had plans for her garden this year. She said no I think it's good the way it is. I told her my plant to grow wine caps in there which she was happy about. I added a 5lb block of wine cap spawn to the flower garden. After a week, my wife decided to dig up a line of plants she had in there for 10 years. Of course it's right where I put the spawn, and of course, she left the colonized chips all over the place and they dried out. I moved all the spread out chips back to where I had them and tried to fix as much as I could. 2 weeks later, I was at work when she did this, she dug into it again adding more flowers. When I saw what she did I tried to flip as much of the chips over and hydrate them. I didn't say anything to her about it so she doesn't get upset, but I specifically asked so I could add the spawn and let it go undisturbed for the season, hopefully getting some tasty mushrooms.
:facepalm3: Any chance she didn't kill them? How resilient are wine caps to being dug up almost weekly?

Sra likes getting disturbed, broken apart and will happy knit itself back together. I bet your mushroom bed will be fine. Good on ya for not losing your cool.

Soon enough golden oysters will be growing on a tree near you.

Fermenting sawdust. [Re: vatman]
    #29582766 -

vatman said:
Further documentation of yeast increasing yield, fruit size and color. If you can ferment your own sawdust in a pile outside in the summer enough for winter you should be good. I added a packet of quick brewers yeast. I have kept adding sawdust and sugar. Bagged a sample of sawdust and it smelt like alcohol in 24 hours.



This is my first post on this forum.
I am new to this fermentation of sawdust concept and would like to read any further information on the subject, if you have any.
Thanks for your post.
