Anyone interested in a trade? (French brown caps; gourmet)
    #5511312 - 04/13/06 07:25 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Okay, I know this should really be in the gourmet section, but I'm taking the print now so I could do with a quick response. + I'd be particularly interested in a print from a psilocybe strain.

The prints I'm taking are from French Brown cap shrooms, you can cook them and eat them like white button mushrooms; tasty! :ooo: Take a few weeks to grow. They're inoculated onto wood shavings, allowed to spread over the entirity, then capped with soil and kept damp. Some time later... brown cap mushrooms! They can grow quite a bit bigger than normal button mushrooms, inches across. If you leave them to get to that size they'll open their gills as well. They have an interesting cap that goes brown all over and then, as it grows and stretches, develops white streaks and 'gauge' marks in it's surface. Lots of actual flesh even when they're big and open so it's not just 99% gills (which turn to mush) when you slice them up.

Piccy included at end. I'll try to make a couple of prints if people are interested but, for obvious reasons, I'd rather not send them out unless you have more than a 100 posts say. Would like a print from a psilocybe strain if you can get one.

Let me know if you'd be interested!

What are the growth parameters? This is going to end up in G&MM forum, I know you can't view the marketplace yet. Beautiful mushrooms btw.

Thanks, they grow quite well without a lot of attention. The gills are a kind of pinky / white / brown colour.

After you have the wood shavings inoculated and covered in myc you cap with soil and incubate them at normal room temperature, maybe somewhere warm in the house (I put them next to the boiler, which must be ~25 -> 27C I suppose). Once the mycelium starts coming to the surface, first it's covered around the edges (where it'll appear first), allowed to grow a bit more, then they're cold shocked for 24h at 15C; I put them outside since it was early in the year. Then they go somewhere ~18C for the remainder. So somewhere cool in the house or warm outside.

Just normal mushroom growing stuff. Keep them damp etc...

They take about a week or two to come through the soil, within another week or two I saw them appearing (looked a lot like polystyrene on the soil at first :grin:).

I'm doing an experiment with this tray of mushrooms. It's slowing down so I'm adding glucose to the water to see if the mycelium will pick it up and give any more flushes. If it works... shroom hydroponics! :tongue2: Actually, I already know something like this works, e.g. the 'corn syrup tek' for turning spores into mycelium before inncoluation.
