I am suspose to have 4 EQ syringes delivered today and I will be picking up supplies to start about a dozen quarts of WBS spawn andc the rest is getting thrown in to LC's. This is all going to be for a bulk straw grow. The question I have is where can I get straw?? I dont have to worry about it until my WBS is ready but I still would like to know in advance so I dont have to scramble at the last minute. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Go to a feed store. Hay and straw are NOT the same thing. You want straw for growing mushrooms. RR

Oh sorry my bad. I always asumed they were the same thing. What is the difference by the way? Just curious.

Straw: The stems or stalks (esp. dry and separated by threshing) of certain cereals, chiefly wheat, barley, oats, and rye. Used for many purposes, e.g. as litter and as fodder for cattle, as filling for bedding, as thatch, also plaited or woven as material for hats, beehives, etc.
Hay: Grass cut or mown, and dried for use as fodder; formerly (as still sometimes) including grass fit for mowing, or preserved for mowing.
Thanks
