Outdoor summer reishi cultivation
    #5467897 - 04/01/06 03:22 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Any advice?  I have access to lots of wood shavings locally...I'd like to take advantage of the warm weather during the summer to grow some reishi outside.  Anyone done this outdoors?  This would be my first outdoor attempt.  :laugh:  Also, outdoor stropharia advice is much appreciated. 

    Thanks.

    You all keep rockin' on, regardless.  :rockon:

Hey Fatty_Bread,

:cool: Shavings are easier to handle than sawdust or chips.

I've grown both outdoors. The reishi on a sawdust block, grain to wetted wood pellets in a plastic gallon jar. Wine Cap on woodchips.

I buried a reishi sawdust block a couple of years ago that had a little mold on it. The fruiting chamber(plastic bag) was too humid.
The block was buried in the spring. When it warmed up it fruited, nice stem and nice shelf. It was pretty bug eaten when I got around to it though, it fruited when there were a lot of chanterelles growing. I was thinking about chanterelles and picking them when I could, pretty busy at the time so I hadn't checked the on the reishi. 

I put the block in hole so it had about 2 inches of clayey soil on top of it when it was covered. Where the block was buried was exposed to the sun in the March so the spot was warm then, by the time it fruited in July the spot was very shady and humid.

That year I also grew some Wine Caps, and they fruited when it was warm and
wet. About half of them were pretty chewed up by bugs. The buttons were really nice, no bugs.

-If it's wet when it's warm check your patches often.

-If you can get them to fruit when the weather is a little cooler much better.
I haven't had any fruit in cooler weather, but the wild ones of both species I find have very little bug damage when it's cooler, daytime temps in the low 70's.

The Wine Caps I grew were grown on chips with a little straw and a little horse manure
mixed in. The beds were in a shady place and semi-buried, there was about and inch of soil on top of the bed, you  could see chips and straw in the thin places.

-I think the Wine Caps like a little straw and horse manure mixed in the beds.


Have fun,

falcon
