What mushrooms are you growing currently? What mushrooms do you plan to grow? What techniques are you using? Why are you growing them?

I haven’t gotten that far with any of them yet. Cremini actually want manure, so the fact it started growing at all on the cardboard was just dumb luck I think, but since I have it in a grain jar now it’s growing at a much faster pace. I’m still trying to find some chicken manure to use so I have a bed for it when it’s ready to go to fruiting.
Yeah I was wondering that too since they grow it on manure. Just shows that fungi will grow anywhere haha.
Well it looks like the cremini experiment is over. I just checked my jars, now both of the cremini jars are completely full of blue mold. The stuff sure does pop up quickly, the mycelium was looking really good in that last jar yesterday.
Aw oh well. Growing mushrooms is half art half science. Super hard to get it growing without contamination.
Funny thing was I didn’t have any contam until I transferred it to the sterilized grain jars. Oh well, the next batch can be done directly in grain jars without multiple transfers, but for now I’ll focus on my oysters.
