Hellllo! I find this question semi-noobish but i feel the need to ask it anyway... *sigh* If i were to make a honey\water LC, can i juice that shiz directly to my poo compost? If so, how much do i use, and how long does it take compared to mixing in 1:4 ratio grainspawn? Thanks for the info!!!!

that would be alot better than just shooting spores in some poo compost and waiting for that to grow, but it wouldn't be as good as throwing some spent (or better yet BRAND NEW) cakes or casings in the compost

Lame... thats wasnt what i was hoping for, but what i thought was probably true. I guess having a perpetual cycle of colonizing compost per each strain you want to continue is optimal... then just when you need to make more, do a poo2poo... thinking out loud... thx for the input.

You can do spawn/myco bags with poo and grains in them, and inject LC (large amounts). You can have some success with just poo but you will have alot of failure. Maybe 50% of the straight poo bags will finish colonizing (at best). Better to mix with grain and vermiculite...

My personal favorite mix is 20% verm, 50-60% poo, 20-30% straw. Can i put like a whole syrninge of LC into this for a comparable-to-grainspawn colonization? Or should i give this up now and work on a perpetual cycle... hehehehe ?

You should add grain to that recipe. And yes, you can put a whole 130cc syringe of LC in there...

Will this work w/o making a sealed spawn bag? If i shoot the LC into my ovenbag full of pasturized compost, then shake it, then line bread pans with it and cover with foil then incubate, would that work? Or does it need the sterile enclosed bag to work with a LC. Thanks!
