porncorn substrate?
    #5518481 - 04/15/06 10:15 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

hello, i was just muching my way through a big bag of popcorn, which got me thinking about it as a substate, i looked in the archives and found two similar teks, using the seeds basically done as u would WBS prep. I was wondering has anyone tryed popping the corn 1st (like u have it at the movies) and then loading your jars with this?

would it work?

seems to me like thered be a lot of nice airgaps for the myc to work its way through?

anyone have any suggestions on this?

I don?t know if that would work, but by popping, how will you saturate? Wet popcorn? gross. + the added volume of popping the kernels would mean smaller yields, vs not popping...
However, I would be very interested to see this method attempted and the results.

popcorn does work as s substrait.. but not really as well as WBS.. and it cost more anyway.. and you dont pop it

I inoculated a quart jar of white popcorn mixed with brown rice and a little cracked corn and red millet that I had laying around and the Acadian coast strain seems to like it the most in 4 days a whole side was covered with mycelium. :-)

I had the same idea. I've heard it's a good compost additive as well. Prolly as an anti-compaction agent in that sense though.

Give it a shot! Maybe humidify it in the jar with some damp perlite in the bottom?
