Sounds great man, good job. I'd really like to try the manure but I have room mates and they'd be mega pissed at the really stinks part! I wonder what other way I could accomplish that...I'm sure you will get big yields and large flushes, after all, cubies are a dung loving species.

I've tried basicly that process, with about 50/50 manure/vermiculite, baked for about 2 hours at 350. When I added spawn I only had about 5 cakes to use for an area of about 3 square feet at 3 inches deep. It grew for a little bit, but then it stopped, not sure why, could have been lack of moisture.I did not have good ventilation on the container, and ended up with a bit of fuzzy crap growing on the manure, it looked kind of like cobweb mold, but I can't be sure, since I've never really seen cobweb  I'm looking forward to hearing your results, be sure to post pictures. With that much substrate it ought to keep flushing for months.

Update regarding manure, QUICKLY COLONIZING. The air holes are making all the difference, I threw the extra that would fit in the bin into a trash bag and tied the top, very little growth in there. On the other hand, the manure in the bin is colonizing quickly...should be completely colonized in a week, then it will get a 2" casing layer, which should take another week or so, and then fruiting! I can't wait to see what B+ will look like on manure. Maybe we'll see some 1 lb(wet weight) specimens! Any thoughts from others who have grown on big blocks on manure?Thanx guyz!

Back to the DRAWING BOARD! OMG this is totally fucked up! I mean the freaking manure said composted on it, and what the fuck did it do, but composted my cakes, it heated up and digested the cakes on the inside, the outside was colonizing, but the inside was blank, not a trace of mycelium, and it was thoroughly innoculateD! Argh, back to the drawing board on this one. I'm gonna attempt to compost this existing manure I've prepared to a point where its usable.. who knows.

Ripper,
Sorry to hear. Suggest a sitting time to assure full composting. Will be watching for further posts, though. Ya got the right idea!
BiO,
On wood composted substrate mentioned. Any more info on wood based mediums would be appreciated, maybe new thread? Have been long time fan of Cultivator, but would like more current actual experience. Have been leaning towards dung methods being discussed, but still have some interest in wood substrates. Especially, for certain species. Also, thanks for other recent info as of late. You got some novell methods going on!
Peace
