P. Stipticus Jars and Plug Spawn
    #9244044 - 11/14/08 12:50 PM (15 years, 3 months ago)

I've really been wanting to start working with P Stipticus soon - I got the idea of using empty liquor bottles filled with rye grain, with a layer of tyvek and a gas exchange hole on the cap. I would give these out as Christmas gifts this year - who wouldn't want a bio luminescent night light? (I read that the mycelium actually glows brighter than the fruits)

I also wanted to make P. Stipticus plug spawn and inoculate a few fallen logs for fun.

I know that lime juice can be added to the substrate for a brighter glow - the mycelium likes a lower pH. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone had any experiences or advice to give with this species and if these ideas are viable.

Thanks.

PS is a really neat mushy especially if you grow it at halloween or xmas.

make 1 part rye and 2 parts woochips.that would give you a better mix and food source for mushy :tongue2:

it´s not confirmed that the mycelium grows brigther than the fruits.
i even sometimes discovered fruits which glowed brighter than the mycelium.

dissolved lemon juice will make them glowing brighter.

keep on growin´ and glowin´
:mushroom2:

Yes I just received some prints of these actually.

Make the PH about 3.5 and you should be able to read a book by its light.

I don't know about reading by the light, but if you make the pH low, they're definitely brighter.  In addition, the fruits are brighter than the mycelium, not the other way around.

If I inoculate spawn with 1 part rye and 2 part woodchips, would they fruit directly in the bottle once FAE is introduced?

Also, what sort of wood does P. Stipticus prefer?
