Idea for a punching bag tek

i was looking at posts like the straw logs and straw balls and so on. Also saw poeple growing mushrooms in a luandry basket and go t to thinking about a way i can do many of these in my new martha setup.
well the idea what i came up with is to use this plastic super thin netting you can get at harware store and spawn the myc to staw in it in layer pulling up the sides of the plastic netting sheet and pinning it all at the top.
so what you end up with is a ball of spawned straw that looks much like those punching bas boxers use. Then after its colonized. Undo it. Roll in verm/coir casing and redo it up. Then when its ready to fruit you can tie it up and hand it in a martha.
*shrug* somthin im gonna try seeing itll cost about 2 bux for the thin netting like material that can be used over and over.
What i think would work out well for this is that when picking the shrooms off it it wouldnt pull off any casing. And itd be easy to dunk. Also dont take up much room as you could hang them at differant hieghts. Shrug... any thoughts?

dont forget that anything > 12" thick log hurts more then it helps.
-------------------- "A human being is part of a whole, called by us the Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." -Al Einstein

Sounds like a good idea for outdoor growing to me. GL

Search mycotopia for the septic tank liner tek. Someone there used it with straw with great results. It comes in 10" diameter, it's cheap, and pins grow right through it.
AFOAF's never tried it, but it sounds like what you're looking for.

Sounds a little unnecessary to me. A martha with each shelf supporting one large single bulk tray sounds more attractive.

I agree, but that's a completely different tek than the one asked about.
OTOH, the straw logs pin on it's entire surface, and done the way I described, the straw is never exposed after spawning so contam risk is much lower. (Since the pins grow through the septic tank material, which is non-nutritative.) If AFOAF was going to just work with staw, he'd definitely try this... he likes his compost though.
