Fungi are incredible decomposers that release enzymes which can break down many different kinds of materials and chemicals, some of which, toxic to our environment. Because of this, many have wondered, “Can fungi solve our pollution problem, and if so, how?”
Find out in this video as Breanna from North Spore dives into the world of mycoremediation by conducting her own experiments using waste materials to grow mushrooms. She also speaks with mycoremediation expert Dr. Lauren Czaplicki, who has used fungi to remediate contaminated soils, and Sue Van Hook, a mycologist who has invented the world's first mushroom buoy in efforts to reduce plastic waste in our oceans.
We hope you enjoy this video!

Amazing video. How lucky we are to be living in a time where mushrooms are properly researched and the abilities they can perform are documented.

This was such an amazing video to watch. Thanks a bunch!

What about toxic paint in jeans and other clothes?? All colours have heavy metals salt in their molecules! All mushrooms absorbing heavy metals!!!

@jl6242 9 месяцев назад

Can you tell us a bit more about your incubation and fruiting chambers and their conditions?

@NorthSpore 9 месяцев назад

we used a North Spore BoomRoom. Incubation should ideally be someplace dark and room temp, a closet works well. Fruiting requires a high humidity environment with good airflow. Check out our video on Martha Tents, it goes over all of the conditions needed for both in more detail!

@PlantGuild 9 месяцев назад

Very cool video! Thank you for producing and sharing this video.

@TheScientist777 9 месяцев назад

How did you choose which species to use in these studies? If the plan isn't to eat the mushrooms then this may open up the market for researching/hunting/cultivating/selling species outside of the gourmet & medicinal realm.

@NorthSpore 9 месяцев назад

totally. we used blue oysters for the speed of colonization and adaptability. I'm certain there are plenty of other unknown species that could be useful for waste reduction

Can I grow White oyster mushrooms in leaves and dried grass cuttings?

@PandoraChaser2 9 месяцев назад

That was fascinating. Pity they are not edible due to risks of what they are absorbing but that's no different to larger sea fish, shell fish risks or similar, from bioaccumulation of toxins. Really cool experiment though.

@decemberbaby9549 9 месяцев назад

I knew fungi could produce edible mushrooms from petroleum spills & cardboard leaving rejuvenated material behind, great way to recycle, compost & cultivate

@user-ni5oy8dd8m 4 месяца назад

I have a question, you said that fungi can accumulate heavy metals and other nonbiodegradable substances, it cannot degrade this waste completely, so where is all this ultimately going to land?

@NorthSpore 3 месяца назад

Good question. A lot of it will end up in fruiting bodies (mushrooms) that can be remove and put into a dump. Otherwise, the mushrooms can help dilute the contaminants, which is one of the most powerful ways of addressing pollution.

@cassiooliveira9429 7 месяцев назад

Are there studies on the non ediblelity of those?

@smas3256 7 месяцев назад

Sunlight purifies garden soil that has been contaminated with dangerous fertilizers created when grasses have been sprayed, farm animals eat and poop to make composts for our gardens. Just out law plastics. But everything in grocery stores are wrapped in plastic. Fresh meats, breads, trail mix, plastic bags for each type of fruit and veggies we put in the carriage. So think outside the box for solutions. Sorry for my rant.

@NorthSpore 7 месяцев назад

There is some stuff out there. We did attempt to get the mushrooms we grew analyzed, but that sort of stalled.

@hannavera6949 6 месяцев назад

@@NorthSporewould love any updates on the results of the analyses!

@metalvoiceover 9 месяцев назад

I wander if these unedable mushrooms can be turned into healthy soil by letting them beeing eaten by mealworms. Caus mealworms can atleast turn certain artificial material into healthy compost. Give it a try!

@darcybrooker 9 месяцев назад

Do you need to steralize plastic wrapped sugarcane multch?

@NorthSpore 9 месяцев назад

can you tell me a little bit more about what the application is?

@darcybrooker 9 месяцев назад

growing oyster mushrooms. The sell sugarcane mulch here in vacuum seals plastic budles, I have a feeling they have already been steralized before packaging@@NorthSpore

@HowWereLivingForagingChannel 9 месяцев назад

New subscriber here. Don’t know too much about growing mushrooms, I’ve only ever done it twice so far. I’m looking for budget friendly ways I could grow edible mushrooms at home without having to buy expensive mycelium blocks every time? Is there a way I can turn one mycelium block into 2 or more? I dont have access to a pressure cooker to sterilize things if that’s a necessary step.

@NorthSpore 9 месяцев назад

Check out our bucket tek method! northspore.com/blogs/the-black-trumpet/growing-mushrooms-in-buckets-containers You could even make small buckets and use them inside our grow tent.

@john-smith. 9 месяцев назад

The only real advantage i can see for doing this is to reduce the size of the landfill, as none is edible, or usable in the garden/fields.

@lucianapaes4183 9 месяцев назад

It could be edible, with polipropilene plastic that goes to landfill with the right cleaning, also you can use glass, and straw to make an edible and healthy outcome easily at home , the ups on mushrooms are huge. And some species you dont really need too much to start. Go shroooooommmmmm and be happy!!!!

@diablominero 9 месяцев назад

Just about everything's a possible or probable carcinogen these days. The only exceptions are things like alcohol and sunlight that are definite carcinogens. I'm not making any effort to avoid things that we aren't even sure are carcinogenic, since that'd be kinda a lost cause.

@NorthSpore 9 месяцев назад

fair enough! there are certainly a lot of 'probable carcinogens' in our environment

What do you mean? I feel like they did a pretty good job of explaining things from the very beginning. Maybe you just weren’t paying attention 🤷‍♂️

@jeannebye8153 7 месяцев назад

So you want humans to CONSUME mushrooms grown from worn clothes and all sorts of garbage that who knows contains what. There is a fine line between caring for the environment to being disgusting and selfish.

@NorthSpore 7 месяцев назад

We're sorry that you feel this way. As stated in the video, we do not recommend that people consume mushrooms from "worn clothes" or questionable, discarded materials. Especially they have been exposed to toxic chemicals or heavy metals. The purpose of this video is to encourage people to use fungi for minimizing waste streams via bioremediation strategies in order to promote a healthy environment. If you have any more questions or concerns please feel free to let us know.
