ammonia is toxic to mycelium?
    #7977549 - 02/04/08 12:37 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Why do we consider it necessary to leech fresh manure? I was watching dirty jobs and they went to a mushroom farming job and they said they ADD horse pee to their compost, why can they use it but we can't?

I saw that show, Mike rocks!

I think they age the compost though, so it's not like adding hpee to a sub, since it is broken down and shit, I think man.

Nice name Wolfy, I would name my son Wolfgang if I ever have one.

Hey thanks. :smile:

They didn't go into the composting/pasteurizing process too much but if they did age it wouldn't that eliminate the horse pee they added anyway?

They use urine as a nitrogen boost to heat up the compost pile. If you're not composting, use aged manure.
