 cubensis on straw

How would cubensis mycelium do for colonizing and fruiting on strictly straw? Well...maybe throw some Brown rice flour in there for food.
Just wondering if anyone has had experience with this.

might not be a good idea to throw brf in there, but i could be wrong.
good thing can be to add some hpoo or cowpoo compost(with verm if it's cowpoo) at about 50% straw, 50% poo (15% of that verm if cowpoo).

Below on the left is plain straw that was stuffed into a 5 gallon bucket, and then dumped out at full colonization. Fruiting conditions were less than optimal, and performance suffered as a result. On the right is a straw log. As shown, you can lay plastic over the top as a 'humidity tent' and straw logs can then be fruited in an open room, provided you lift the plastic and mist daily as required. There's a short video clip showing how to pasteurize straw and make straw logs and laundry baskets on my website.

Looking for some more opinions on this.
I read that it would work fine.
here is a pic from where I read it.
They said you could just do the straw and brf in a bag, pressure cook it and knock it up, let it colonize then it will fruit like thses here. Of course there are a few more steps in there, but that the basics of it.
Let me know please, before I waste a hard earned syringe.
thanks a bunch

what more information are you looking for you just had two of the best people on the forums give you links and share some input.
on top of that - those pics you just put up gave me an idea for a fun grow. I'm going to fill up tube socks with straw and a pint of colonized grain each.they should fruit right out of the sock, correct ?
edit- i was responding to another post... shiit

a tube sock may be a little too thick and heavy. Have you considered perhaps some of those mesh fruit bags or simply making mini-strawlogs like in that posters pics.
And I'd hardly call myself one of the best cultivators on here.

Nice pics RR  I'm guessing they aren't on the videos 
Speaking of the videos, when is Netflix going to start carrying them? I've been checking every now and then and they still don't have them in their inventory.

You want to spawn an already colinised substrate to straw. there are various teks on how to do it.
the basic idea is to take fully colinised substrate (grain or pf tek) and mix it with pasturised bulk, which is left in incubation conditions to colinise then put into fruiting conditions.
As RR said, check out his videos on www.mushroomvideos.com

You could mix your spawn with pasteurized straw and press it together into the bottom of a suitable fruting chamber and case it, and fruit. Straw works great alone, but adding hpoo in a 50/50 mix probably increases nutrients.
