So what really is the coolest thing about having your best mate working at a mushroom farm?
I think that it has to be the fact he brings home large amounts of PRE-PASTUERISED commercial quality mushroom compost -
which is perfect for spawning our 'all time favourite' P. cubensis to -

I think its made from straw and some form of chicken manure, and they put some sort of yellow 'pellets' for nutrients - but I really couldnt tell you.

Its a commercial farm, and he just works there. They only grow mushrooms for the supermarket - but my bet is that they'd see a *small* jump in their profit margins if they started to grow psylocibin mushrooms.
I wonder how well that would go down at the vegetable section of the supermarket.... I can picture an isle full of dreadlocked hippies - "far out man, just LOOK at that cucumber - picture how it is formed, and what really is its purpose for being here?"

That could very well be it, I know for sure that they add it at the same time they add the spawn - therefore it isnt in the compost which I get.
My friend gets it straight after the pasturising process - they do this in a massive store room, and bring the entire room up to pasturising temp - then let the compost sit in this room in large pallets for THREE days before it is removed. The compost comes covered in firefang.

I live near a few 'mush farms', I was thinking about making contact with one of the places, but have no idea how to go about it.....just looking for compost to buy....
What do you think, would it be worth a try if I 'played the part' of a student/hobbies Mycologist or something.....

I just tell them that i grow medicinal mushroom and I only need a couple pounds and they just give it to me for free...but i always offer to pay for it..and bring a container to put it in and a shovel..lol....The actual place were i go doesn't grow mushroom they just make the compost for the mushroom farm across the street.....the compost that I get has to be pasteurized and it contains wheat straw, horse manure, hay, poultry manure, cottonseed meal, cocoa shells and gypsum....its great stuff....When I first went there They asked me were my lab is at...LOL..Its my bathroom and Glove box
