Q: Can I use LC rather then Cakes to Spawn?
    #8013038 - 02/12/08 12:08 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Was wondering if I could just fill a tray with a Substrate and then inocualte it with LC so as to skip the whole Cake making/crumbling process..

I eman, it sounds probable but how would one go about doing it?

If I mix a tray of coir/coffee grounds could I just shoot a bunch of LC in all over and then case over?

Primarily could I just innoc a mono with some LC?

Advice, Comments, Links? I couldnt find nuttin via search but I recall seeing this asked before..

You would need a lot of semi-pure LC- a shitlload - I mean 1:4 myc/spawn ratio (pure myc weight verus amount of medium.) would require a lot....

And there are a LOT of ways mushrooms can figure out how to deal, so almost anything is possible- you just gotta think outside the box (or sometimes get back inside because you still need to learn the box :smile:)

take a mushroom & h202 and put it in a blender- slurry it up, pour that all over a substrate/jars and mix it up- Dr. Otts first book on cultivating psilocybes is based around that.  It works all the time if you do it right. 

Me and my gf talk about making a LC blaster- straight up like a paint sprayer with a backpack- but you should shoot out LC or spore solution.

Walk up to bales of straw and fire away!

Civ, that's actually been done with growing woodloving species outdoors, using a slurry in a sprayer to start a patch.  From what I've read, it's a great method. :courtjester:

I take all my old lc's and run them through a coffee filter nad maybe rinse the mycelium with tap water and then put the almost pure mycelium into a blender and shread it up. Then it goes into a spray bottle and tap water is added and then I spray away on wood chips. It works but it isnt 100% but it it much better than trashing the old overgrown lc.

I actually have a lc that will be ready for a spray bottle in a few days and I will do a wood lover experient/tech for it.

Lc's straight out of the jar are too too rich to use in a non sterile enviroment. This is why the mycelium must be seperated from the unused sugar

Stop experimenting half way through your first grow. Grow it to maturity, watch it, learn from it. Do this a few times then experiment with different ideas and figure out what works best for you.

yea dude. when the temps are right and its rainy or you water it often it should work. there was a tek floating around about grinding up a bunch of mushies and making a slurry and spraying it on woodchips. i think it was called woodlovers slurry by wican seeker

I'm gonna give it a go on a pile of woodchips or a old rotten log in my ravine, worth a go in the summertime just for kicks.
