shredded straw
    #7784300 - 12/21/07 01:56 AM (16 years, 1 month ago)

Could I feesably grind up a bunch of straw and just to like a grain to straw transfer in a jar?

I think I am gonna try this very soon.

Or could i just put a bunch of inch long straw in a jar and do a grain transfer to that?

You've seen the straw logs before, right? A jar is like a solid, unflexible jar shaped plastic bag:crazy: Yes, you could do this.

You can do it. Mycelium LOVES straw. I notice that that is the first thing that colonizes in my bulk grows. I don't know how it would effect the total yield of your grow though. I don't hear too often of people using straight straw as a substrate. HMMM kind of interesting.

Straw definitely is supposed to colonize fastest, but the downfall might be that lots of things colonize on Straw fast. The liklihood of getting a contam is that much greater when the Mycelium is at it's weakest and most vulnerable beggining stages. If you're clean, it may speed things up, but I think the idea is to get the Mycelium nice and healthy before putting it on straw to ensure it's best chance of survival.
