What's the deal with HPOO?
    #8005559 - 02/10/08 05:24 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

A little ways up from my house are two horse-raising families. They are neighbors and have a painted stone gate. I think they are psychonauts!


No, I really don't, but I see some horse shit over the fence. Lots.

I assume I could ask permission and get a few plastic baggies and collect? (I have a buddy or two that will assist.)
Also, are there any other steps to prepare it?

What are you going to prepare? I have been looking around Horse Ranches down here near the border in California and think I may have found some Panaeolus subbalteatus mushrooms on it, but they were dry, so I couldn't get a spore print. They did have some bluing on the mycelium though. I should have gone a couple days earlier. You should just wait a couple days after it rains and go ask your neighbors if you can look for mushrooms as a science experiment or something. You will definitely find something.

hpoo is light, it is very fibrous and runs fairly quick.

The only difference I see with hpoo and straw opposed to coir and coffee is that you can compress straw/hpoo to a full six inches and have a perfect canopy every time. Since coir retains alot of water and is heavier it has to be left loose for a proper spawn run, also, at six inches it compresses the bottom and the mycelium has trouble finishing the colonization.

Hpoo is also free, so are coffee grounds depending if you strike lucky with a coffee shop worker or you can go buy a cheap bag for $5-7 dollars but depending on the size of grow it can get to be expensive if you don't have a source to obtain the days coffee grounds.

That is the only difference, coir/coffee grounds produce some kick ass results but there is no substitute for straw/hpoo. You'd have to try them both before you could see for yourself.
