Is Straw Soaking Necessary?
    #7873034 - 01/13/08 11:37 AM (16 years, 19 days ago)

There seemed to be diversified ideas on straw preperation. Do most people soak their straw for 24+ hours before pastuerization?

I simmer mine for 20 minutes and let drain for a couple of hours before adding it to the rest of the bulk substrate. I've said it before, it seems like that's the first thing the mycelium colonizes. It grabs on to it like they were meant for each other. NO LIE!

Here is a top view of a tub.... Notice that the only thing that is covered with Mycelium is the straw
Here is another pic of mycelium just devouring straw
