japanese green tea tek experiment

I'm on an interesting experiment now, i usually drink a lot of japanese green tea and i wanted to recycle it naturally... So i 'm trying it as a substrate with Tasmanian strain. After PC the tea ( a tea i have drinked before ) i inoculed with colonized agar ... it grows very fast ! Looked like big buds ... What i want to experiment is if it will be a good substrate for fruiting ...let's see. If yes, i will never buy any other substrate because i drink green tea every day ! I don't know if it could work with black tea but i'm sure the nutrients are more interesting in the green tea, chinese or japanese. Did someone here ever tried this substrate ? Would it works for Pans...after all it's like a kind of straw isn't it ? Please give some feedback for this experiment, it's interesting and i would like to see other people trying it to compare ... Thanks

I'm going to try it with gulf coast and a "wild" print of Florida just received from a nice friend ... The jars are progressing ... i've just putted one in fruit chamber ... The problem with the green tea is the green color ! Difficult to look for contamination ... but in an other hand the mycelium is very visible and looks so nice with the green background !!!

Start a new life ! Drink green tea every day and you'll not wait LONG time ... In fact there is cheap chinese green tea, it is called the " Gunpowder" type, because of the aspect of the leaves. I think you can find it in all asian grocery of the world ... but i did not tried it yet ...

Hm, i think it's not so easy to dry soaked tea ... why not PC it and case it for later ? I fear you will not help your mushrooms to become dry ...?
