What have been people's experiences growing cub's in them? I was surprised to see them, they seem like such a basic idea they should have been out years ago. It doesn't seem like fucking up with them is even possible! Of course I'll always prefer casing, and casing a myco bag seems like a waste of money. They're really good for someone who's never grown before to break into the hobby.
What do you all think a first flush yeild from 1 bag would be around? (kept at right temp, with an average yeilding strain)

Yeah, the self-healing device is a great innovation. I could make a shiitake culture syringe anytime but I was waiting until I found a very aggressive warm loving strain. Is there a preference in the type of shiitake? Because there are a lot of strains to choose from.

don't know much about shiitake, just that i love to eat it.
The strain i'm working iwth now is a pretty slow colonizer when compaired to oysters and cubes, but it like fruiting, just about every agar plate backup i made has weird looking caps popping out of it

Hmm maybe I should break into the world of legal mushroom cultivation. But why get those bags for oyster mushrooms when you can get the same thing except nearly the size of a garbage bag from vendors who deal solely with gormet supplies? Probably a ton less expensive when you compare volume.
Yeah I think those self healing injector sites are very cool, I'm tempted to buy a bag or two just so I can stab through them with a syringe.

"""But why get those bags for oyster mushrooms when you can get the same thing except nearly the size of a garbage bag from vendors who deal solely with gormet supplies?"""
you got a PC big enough to fit a garbage bag full of spawn?
Since the PInk oysters are so fast, and i'm soo hungry, i think i'm going to respawn my next batch, as in use the rye spawn to colonize wood, then use that to colonize wood and rye or something to that effect. Mushrooms everyday would not be a bad thing ;-)
