LC to dung straw mix?

Can you inoculate a dung and straw mix using liquid culture? Will the mycelium grow or do you need grain. I saw a post by Blue Helix but he uses grain in his fruiting substrate, im talking about no grain, just LC and Dung and straw.

I suppose you could but I personally think the nutritional profile of the substrate needs to be as optimal as possible. Adding grains to the substrate not only increases the nutritional profile, it also increases the amount of moisture the substrate can hold. There is only one real way to find out if it will work and that's to try it.

The straw will hold some moisture but without the addition of some vermiculite and grains, the substrate may be lacking in moisture.

Blue_bruiser006, if you are talking about in a STERILE SEALED spawn bag, then it will probably work. Otherwise, it is about 100% likely to mold. I was working in a sterile spawn bag via injection.
