That's very cool of you.
You're making a hell of a start here at the Shroomery.



Thanks Servator! Speeker, thanks for the fruiting tips. I'll see what happens when I try to fruit them. Cordyceps might be too complicated for me though, and I might just use them to trade for other species. However, I will try to fruit it!:grin:

:thumbup:
everything else is quite easy to carry out but that 10C/50F difference
in night and day temperatures (if it is needed) can be harder to achieve
in indoors. last year i had some cultures outside from spring until winter
but that didn't help either.

I'm back! Cultures will start being sent out very soon! I wanted to ask all of you for what you think is the best mushroom species overall. So far I've got reishi, hen of the woods, hericium, and the elm oyster. Those of you that asked me earlier for a culture, PM me your address, and I'll send the agar out soon. If you want one, but haven't PMed me, I'll put you on my waiting list. :grin: Happy shrooming.
P.S. I'd appreciate trade rating:grin:

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
I think that hericium is the best overall.. it tastes good, is easy to cultivate
and has even some interesting medicinal properties..

Jonat, i thought that you may want to remove your message but now you've
corrected that 25F to 20F.. ?? ( F = 9/5 * C + 32 )

Yeah, I was thinking of the delta factor for centimeters to inches instead of C to F, then realized my goof.

I'm sending out the cultures tomorrow or the day after, so PM me with addresses! Just to let you know what I used for agar, I used a 3% agar by weight and 6% powdered non-fat milk (for protein). The mycelium loves it. When watered down, the mycelium didn't like it half as much.

P.S. Remember to clean the mycelium via agar transfers!

Thanks! :grin:

So, have you tasted cordyceps tea yet?
If not, here is a simple recipe for Cordyceps militaris tea (from www.chemlife.com.tw ):
1 - 3 grams dried cordyceps militaris
500 - 1000 cc/ml hot water
steep for 2 - 5 minutes


drink, and remember to eat the fruitbodies too.

Hi all! I harvested the cordyceps today, and here's a look at the substrate that we've all been looking forward to. It is really hard, and reminds me of chopped nuts.

you may have crumble a bit more to find out the main substrate.
maybe it's beans or something.. Nuts may need that warning
on the label: Contains Nuts! And bugs are probably out of the
question in the US..

here is picture of crumbled cordyceps cake (again from www.chemlife.com.tw)

the main ingredient seem to be rice here.

Ya, that's pretty much what mine looks like. How do they fruit it off rice though? On that note, has anyone had success fruiting off RR's cricket agar? Or can the cordyceps fruit off any high protein substrate. Just checking. Thanks speeker

Check this out Four Mushrooms.

Troopin cordyceps (Cordyceps militaris )is also called north Chinese caterpillar fungus, north awe to in China. It belongs to Corcyceps, Clavicipitales, Pyrenomycetes, Ascomycotina, Troopin cordyceps and awe to that is widely known in China are both Corcyceps, because it's a typical breed in Cordyceps, its widely received by the scholars all over the world. The artificial cultivation of Troopin cordyceps has achieved success and a series of produces has been opened up. This will open a new route for nourishing food and functional food. In pace with development of science and technology, the cultivation and processing of Troopin cordyceps would have brilliant prospects.

As cultivating Troopin cordyceps, firstly inoculating spawn in medium to form a large number of conidiums. Secondly, choosing conidiums to make suspended spore liquid by aseptic water, then inoculate it at host, which means pupa. Protect the pupa until it become stiff. Then put the stiff pupa in simulated natural environment like wild Troopin cordyceps in it and culture it. The seed stand that grows from pupa will be exactly alike as from wild pupa.

The detailed method of operation follows:

  1. Screening strain Rejuvenate Troopin cordyceps through live pupas to screen a spawn which sensitizer is strong and easy to form spores.
  2. Making suspended spore liquid Inoculate the strain in medium and culture it at 20°C. When conidiums produce, choose a part of it to make suspended spore liquid by aseptic water. It will be used later.
  3. Preparing hosts Disinfect with smoke after the silkworms go up a small bundle of straw to spin cocoons on. Cut open the cocoon and take the pupa a week later. Clean out the bad and sick pupas. Choose healthy pupas in growth phase. Or choose the five-years-old silkworms to be hosts which have not gone up a small bundle of straw to spin cocoons on.
  4. Inoculation Sting into the pupa by an inoculation needle, which has dipped in spores suspended liquid. The rate of infection may be upon 95%.
  5. Protecting the pupas which have been infected Spread out the pupas which have been infected in a big round shallow basket, protect the pupas to stiff at indoor temperature.
  6. Breeding the fruit body Imitate natural environment of Troopin cordyceps. Culture the stiff pupas to form fruit body. The method is covering the stiff pupas with a coat of porous material such as bits of sponge, small piece of coal, etc. Breed the fruit body under circumstances of indoor temperature and 95% air humidity.
  7. Directive breeding of fruit body The purpose of directive breeding of fruit body is to make the fruit body long and stiff. The method is stick the upward head of pupa into porous material such as sponge, breed it under the aforementioned conditions.
  8. Collecting and preserving the strain of Troopin cordyceps Dig up the fruit body as it has been matured, clean it and disinfect its body with edible alcohol. Then dry it at 60°C. Seal up and store it at a cool, dark, and arid place.

Troopin cordyceps cultured in fore mentioned way, it needs 35-45 days from inoculation to mature period of the fruit body. It will harvest 50g-350g per square meter. According to examination, Cordyceps militaris artificial cultured has a great deal of awe to acid, awe to element, amino acid, trace element and alkaloid, etc. It can enrich the marrow, resist cancer, calm and diminish inflammation, stop blooding and reduce phlegm. It has a good curative effect to nephritis, hepatitis, asthma and neurasthenia.

hmm.. I really suggest that you (all) read some of the materials that
i've already mentioned. Or see the videos if you understand Chinese.

After five days I can tell that your strain too, as I expected, grows well
on standard MYA (with some whole wheat flour).
No contams present that I can see.
