POOP POOP POOP

so it has come to my attention that many shroomerites do not use store bought cow/steer manure because the cattle are sometimes fed anti-fungal treated grains. how do i know i'm buying the right stuff? i can't find poop sitting around so the store is my only hope. what do i do? where do you all get your poop? i can't imagine everybody gets fresh from the field cow turds.

Yea, this seems like a pretty significant issue and hasn't been given much attention from what I've read regarding bulk grows.
I have 80 lbs of "Composted Manure and Humus" and says that it's ".05-.05-.05 Composted." It has no other indications of additives or treatments, but then again it probably wouldn't consider the anti fungal treated feed for the cows whose poo it is.
Please give insight or at least list what you have used other than pure from the butt poo!

me give insight about poo or others? i got fucked by using store bought composted steer manure (or so people have been saying). it didn't colonize. i need to know what people use to get good results. i don't want to rely on just straw.

I was just asking the general shroomery public along with you
I got the OK on my stuff, but it makes a lot of sense, especially when there aren't many stories of people hunting mushrooms around here.

any decent sized town house a cattle farm somwhere. or a horse stable, or you can go to the state fair with a couple 10 gal buckets and ask the guy that waches after teh pony ride if you can get some pewp. or go to the zoo and try and get elephant shit. you can use horse, cow, donky, pony, and mule poop. if you cant find one of those animals within 20 miles then your state sucks.

do you have some money, lana sells de-hydrated poop, and www.highmountaincompost.com has pre-pasteurized expensive but rock on compost. or go to wal mart or a garden supply and get worm castings, they dont anti-fungus teh worms.

Feed from places like Intermountin Farmers comes in percentages, with or without antibiotics, depending on what you are going to feed it to. In general, animals raised for meat get higher protein, therefor get antibiotic as they are growing very fast and it keeps the smell down. Dairy cows usually get non-antibiotic food as we drink the milk, but no guarantees. Best to find a herd in a pasture that rely on grass, and collect there. Cow feed usually is reprocessed meat chicken shit anyway, as it is usually 14% protein, and is cooked and pelleted with a little grass and is loaded with antibiotic from the chickens. Anything fed from a bag is suspect. Bagged Poop from Kmart usually comes from feed lots, where it is easy to use a front end loader to collect, not caring about the mushroom growing people.

I guess I could try a G2G transfer to a small bit of it to see if it colonizes. That would let ya know.

organic composted manure with hummus. Would one believe that the chemicals were all leached out during the composting period?

What do you order from them, their mushroom compost? How much do you normally get and how far does that go?

Seems like a very trivial issue, I wish I could get a better answer to this.

Well the difference is whether the farmers who raised the cow put anti fungal treatments into the food they fed their cows.

Very true for This is done to protect the product while its in the bag. However horses get better grain. Horse poo is great.Just completed my 1st experiments with it. Try horse poo. Just my $0.02
