Simple Invitro Poo Bags

Simple, Lazy, Invitro Mushroom Bags

Okay, I'm lazy, I'll admit it.
I've been growing mushrooms for about 2 years now, I've done pf cakes in PoorMans Pod Terrariums, then I moved to rye casings in the same terrariums, then I did large cased tubs of rye. I've done Martha closets with casings, and even with spawn bags that I just cut the tops off of.
I'm too lazy for all that shit, have to make sure the humidifiers have water, making sure the air stones for the PMPs are working, fan the tubs, I didn't even like making up casings.
I prefer to set it and forget it.
So, after much testing, I came up with this idea to use pasteurized poo (Pre-Pasteurized from tennstudd, so I don't have to do any work to it, just open the box and spawn the shit), put that in filterpatch bags, which provide air exchange and keep in humidity.
Leave the bags in the dark for a week or so to colonize, then put them in light for another week and come back and pick mushrooms.
No misting, No fanning, and the lights in the closet are on a timer, so I don't even have to mess with that.

Materials needed:
1) Colonized jars of spawn - I use Pint jars of colonized WBS for my spawn jars. You could use colonized rye jars, or even shredded pf jars I think would work just fine.

2) Large empty filterpatch spawn bags - I purchase these from either mycofactory.com or sporeworks.com.

3) Pre-Pasteurized 50/50 (poo/straw) mix from tennstud.com

4) Reynolds Turkey Size Oven bags - These are used to evenly mix the spawn and the poo before putting it into single bags.

DIRECTIONS

Prepare and colonize your spawn jars as you normally would for any growing.
Take your colonized jars of spawn.
Open your bag of tennstudd poo. (The poo usually comes in 5lb bags)
I use 1pint of spawn per lb of poo. (so 5pints of spawn per 5lb bag from tennstud)
Pour the poo into your Reynolds oven bag.
Put in your spawn jars.

Break up all the spawn.

Mix it all around really well.

I pour 2lbs of this mix into each filterpatch bag, then impulse seal it. (I don't think that impulse sealing these bags is necessary since we are not working with sterile substrate, I think you could get away with folding over the top really well then putting clothespins on the top.)

Each 5lb bag of tennstudd poo + spawn mixed will make 4 bags or so.
These bags are then placed in a dark closet at room temperature to colonize (70-75 degrees)

They usually take 7-10 days to colonize, they then are thrown in a closet with light to fruit.

A week or so later, you get pins and mushrooms.

Once the shrooms mature, I take the bags outta the closet, cut off the tops, harvest, spray the inside with water/h2o2 mix, then put a clothespin on and wait for the next flush. Subsequent flushes on these bags are not too great, but the first flush usually gives 300-600g of wet fresh mushrooms. I use PF Classic, Texas, Hawaiian strains in the bags. I have tried others that did not perform as well as these 3 have, your results may vary.

There, simple mushrooms, lets see what comments this gets.
