Nice man, I like the He'Brew. How is it, never tried it? (total lightweight with beer anyway -but it's always good to know what's good!)


So from your pictures above it looks like you inoculated directly into the substrate layer. Is that correct?

Also I have a question about the sclerotia you've got there. I've been on a mission for a while to learn about the sclerotia. Did you grow those out yourself or buy the spawn? I'm sure that is answered in the thread, but I'm at work, and kinda gotta run, I'll read the whole thing again later, so only answer that if it is not already in the thread.

Also kudos to you for your great work so far. And also good attitude...

Thanks bro!

To answer your Qs:

1) The He'Brew is OK but not great.
2) A perforated substrate tray was inoculated with morel sclerotia and placed on a rye grass tray nutrient source that was later removed after colonization.
3) The sclerotia was cultivated in rye grass/soil mixture mycobag from black morel LC purchased from SporeWorks for $18.

The above is buried in the thread, but no prob!

Cheers!

It is my understanding that morel mushrooms that are grown in this fashion are grown with Yellow Morels, not Black.

An upcoming optional step is:

"Step 22.

casing (optional): Layer casing soil evenly to a depth of 1/2". Allow 7-10 days for Mycelium to run through the casing."

Thinking of PCing some potting soil at 15 PSI for 1.5 hours to use as the casing layer.

Any comments or advice?

Thanks in advance!

Thats what I'm saying.

I believe that they fruit differently.

Well I will find out by 7/31-8/14 when the winter mode step is over and the fruiting step is to begin.

All good vibes appreciated!

Two thumbs for luck! :thumbup::thumbup:

How do the habitats of the black and yellow species differ? Your worst case scenario; nothing happens, you can put them out on the garden and get heaps later on. I'm gonna out on a limb and say I think it will work...

The pessimist sees the hole, the optimist sees the donut. :grin:

I find yellow morels mostly in riparian habitats and black morels in moist oak forests.

Best thing is to be realistic: see the hole and the donut.

Good luck Jackal

Thanks for the encouragement and dose of realism!

Here is something encouraging from another bro:

black morels fruit at 48f or above....greys and yellows start at 52-54 degrees ground temperature.
I think youre doing a fine job..no worries.


From Sporeworks: "Alternative methods recommend mixing wood ash with the sclerotia as black morels are often associated with burn sites. This was not attempted with this strain."

How about burning some of the apple wood chips to mix with the potting soil in the casing layer?

In preparation for fruiting, sterilized a quart of potting soil at 180-200F with microwave and to be used for the 1/2" of casing for the substrate.

"Remove[d] bagged tray from refrigeration.
Remove[d] substrate tray from bag and plac[ed] in fruiting chamber or room. Slowly saturat[ing] substrate with sterile (65-70°F) [distilled] water at a rate of 1.5-2.5 [not measured] fluid ounces/hr/square foot of substrate surface area for 12-[36] hours. [Will] [a]llow substrate to drain completely (for about 24 hours) [thereafter]."

Added lid rings to keep substrate tray from sitting in water.


Took substrate tray out of fridge and placed on rings.




Set rain v 2.0 to 1 minute on and 5 minutes off duty cycle.




Cheers!

"Allow[ing] substrate to drain completely (for about 24 hours)."

Tomorrow will add casing layer for casing spawn run of 7 to 10 days (8/6-8/16) followed by primordia formation 3 to 7 days thereafter (8/9-8/24). This presents a problem, as we are going on vacation 8/17 to 8/24.

Not sure what to do, except extend casing spawn run by another week (8/16-8/24).

All suggestion appreciated!
