One final question about straw

#3260755 - 10/21/04 11:52 PM (18 years, 1 month ago)

One final question about straw:

All the straw shown on this site looks very clean and consistent, golden yellow stems, nothing else. Dude picked up a bale from a local farmer he finally found and chopped up a bunch to pasteruize. He noticed there are all kinds of things in the straw like wheat berries, stuff that looks like grass etc. Is this OK? It would be impossible to pick it all out.

Tried posting this in another thread but it's not getting enough views.

Thanks for all your help dudes! :mushroom2:

Yea there is more straw than other shit, but there is definitely a share of those wheat berry things and greener grass lookin stuff.

Yeah it sounds like you got a bale of hay. I think you will be ok. I have grown shrooms on my grass clippings and yard waste.

Well maybe he can post a pic, it is definitely wheat straw but there are some foriegn objects mixed in. Maybe he can pick them out, he really doesn't need a ton.

Don't sweat it, I can't remember what the stuff is called but less then 10-20% of it and you'll be fine. Stuff I get is like that too. I pick some out but not much at all..just the really big peices staring me in the face.
