Some additional thoughts/information if you’re interested:
Grow kits are overrated… This isn’t my TEK, but it is my favorite one. It’s a roughly replicated of “BOD's Easy AF UnBODified Monotub” tek. Thank you Bods! Mushroom growing is likely far easier than you might think, if you haven’t tried it yourself.
From start to finish, mushrooms can be grown faster than fruits & vegetables (with the exception of Microgreens, of course, mushrooms have protein though). They require less energy, maintenance, and water to grow too (they like the same temperatures humans do), making them have lower climate impact than most farming/gardening. Also easier to grow indoors, as climate change accelerates and makes outdoors less favorable for growing plants. Coco Coir actually absorbs Carbon Dioxide too, making it a pretty environmentally conscious source of substrate, not to mention you can inoculate with colonized grain/rice in open air, no vent hood required.
A look at how I cultivate and harvest mushrooms using coco coir and unmodified mono tub tek - More videos to follow about coir prep, grain prep, etc. Some real Hamilton's Pharmacopeia stuff, the all natural stuff...

Shoeboxes and pure coco substrate is the easiest for me.
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
Shoeboxes must be ideal for most people’s needs, including my own. Everything would be so much easier, more economical, less waste, still get multiple flushes. Not too mention less of a loss if contamination hits. I’ll definitely be more focused on small grows in future videos. Jar growing, Ben’s tek, reusing “single use plastic” containers, definitely more practical for the average homegrower. Not to mention lower risk on all levels. Appreciate the comment, and the wisdom. I’m sure I failed to mention this can be scaled down to any size, and that is a critical point to realize for any independent subsistence homegrower. Thank you!
@g-man9684
@g-man9684 Год назад
@@floki-man I feel like if you do the shoebox and fill it up like at least 2/3 full having the lid closer helps. Kinda like how side pins grow. Having the lid closer to the substrate and that smaller gap to lid creates good conditions. At least in my case. Mush love P.s. For those new to the shoebox method after cracking the lid to induce pinning I will leave that lid on and let the mushrooms grow up to the lid and sometimes leave the lid and let them push it up but if they are gonna big, once they hit the top I will do the dub tub technique and mist the top tub.

I completely submerge my subs in COLD water for at least an hour after each flush. It seems to shock them into fruiting again quicker and also rehydrates them. Side pins can be minimized by lining your tote with black plastic...not to block light but as the sub shrinks, it will stick to plastic instead of leaving a gap, discouraging pins.
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
@7munkee Nice, I imagine cold water would be fine for this too, possibly better. Do you use unmodified tubs as well? I think the original tek suggested warm. Viscosity of water may not change that much warm vs cold. The stumps do pull in a lot of water, and it does start to sink without submerging. Absolutely agree the key to side pin prevention is preventing a gap from forming around substrate, it’s very easy to fill & pack gaps with coir/casing material as substrate shrinks. I think there’s no real need for plastic liners if you can check tubs regularly. Appreciate the ideas, I like the energy savings of using cold water vs. hot too. Money saver. Thanks!

Hey, 3:18 just a tip, you want to use as cold as possible water because it tells the mycelium that it is winter, time to freeze, but then it quickly warms up and they think it is a spring thaw happening. They come back in much stronger force if you use cold or ice water while rehydrating them, then just drain it all off and let em warm up.

@floki-man 7 месяцев назад
@lazyjain That’s what I hoped others would recognize too! Hope to test growing a tub of lions mane sometime… imagine how many meals you’d grow in just a couple months or less 😂 This TEK (original found titled “Bods TEK”)Made growing so much easier in my experience. Super low contamination risk (until after a couple flushes…if you don’t dry it enough after harvesting risk increases hard, people suggesting drain holes may also realize that would help drain excess water for days reducing contamination risks further). Also super low maintenance fruiting (zero maintenance when colonizing, unless you notice dry spots (unlikely)). Can potentially check, mist, fan as infrequently as every 24 hours (definitely check every 12 hours when possible, don’t stress if you can’t). Especially in dry climates, like lower than 30-40% humidity, this is so easy. When I tried to use shotgun fruiting chamber with PF TEK in Albuquerque New Mexico (high desert climate), misting even 7-8 times a day seemed in adequate. Only fruited at interface between cake and foil (highest humidity area). Damn I can ramble. Working background on a tv show tonight. Not much going on. Thanks for watching and commenting! Hope to share more soon, probably prioritize smaller grows unless for food mushrooms in future.

I thought so too, until I tried it on a floating substrate forest. I think blade thickness is a major factor when cutting grippy things. The tapered steel of a chefs knife binds up when you’re cutting greater depth than blade. Since full edge thicker than cutting edge.

Use a black liner, or liner of some sort. Color really don’t matter. But also a liner will help with the micro climate and focus energy to the top of the cake for your pin set.

Maybe misting more frequently, or reducing fresh air exchange would help reduce shrinkage too. I think liners are a waste of time and plastic, and interesting you bring up CO2: coco coir actually sequesters/stores/absorbs CO2, which may also be why coco coir works so well in unmodified tubs. Misting and fanning every 12 hours when fruiting. Doesn’t get much easier than that.

Something to do with a low layer of CO2 maybe? Similar to a casing?
@floki-man
@floki-man 10 месяцев назад
Thanks for watching! Yeah, some stuff left behind, I could’ve cut lower. But you also risk having dirty stumps to clean sub off of if you cut too low. Microclimate is as simple as: with stumps there, air is a bit more stagnant, so may have higher humidity than above the stumps. Which can encourage new pinning. Kind of like a casing layer.

@g-man9684
@g-man9684 Год назад
it says cvg. Coco, vermiculite and gypsum. I've had plenty great flushes with pure coco coir.
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
I primarily only use coco coir, mixed with about 4x coir weight. Water volume varies slightly with different coir suppliers, check field capacity as you can. Put coir in cooler box, dump measured amount of boiling water into coir (cooler box tek) add boiling water, wait overnight. Impossible to get wrong, unless your scale is off… video demonstrating this process will be on the way. I may have added some vermiculite in tubs in this video to get rid of my last bit from PF TEK days. Today, 100% coir.

@electrobeats759 absolutely, check and fan a little 1-2 times a day. Mist bed fan if anything looks dry, or if substrate looks dry pour a little water down sides to kind of “bottom water” if you don’t want to get caps too wet. If once a day is all you can do, it’s pretty forgiving at fruiting.

Can you please advise how you do the air exchange during fruiting stage ?
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
Pinning, fruiting are basically the same with this tek. Check tub every 12 hours if you can, mist a little, fan a little. If it looks dry every 12 hours, mist a little more, fan the same. It’s very very forgiving too. The crack from having the lid on upside down seems to maintain a perfect humidity level for me, I think I’ve gone over 24 hours without checking once fruited, didn’t really look like they missed me at all. My ambient humidity can be as low as 10-20%, so low FAE helps a lot. Higher ambient humidity, maybe you only need to check every 24 hours. Or maybe you need to fan twice as much. A small hygrometer/humidity monitor will help remove the guess factor for you.

Great question, primarily so I could reuse the water. It’s a lot of volume when you live in the desert. Our trees love harvest time.

@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
I don’t think anyone will be able to help from pictures alone. If the mycelium is all white and healthy, and you don’t have gnats/fruit flies around, then hopefully it’s not contaminated. Try changing your conditions if you can. Put it somewhere cooler if can. If it’s already cool, try somewhere warmer. Easier than temperature, try adjusting humidity. You can buy relatively cheap hygrometer/humidity meters almost anywhere. 70% average should typically be what you’re looking for. May help to ensure adequate lighting too, but that’s not critical for pinning. Hope this helps.

Will there be new growth from the stems??
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
Absolutely. Just need to make sure you let it get back to lower moisture/humidity, maybe skip misting a few days or more and keep fanning. May not get another full canopy, but you can keep going till you feel you’ve grown enough and yield isn’t justifying continued maintenance, or until you see green/other contamination. The creator of the TEK claimed to get 4 or more full canopy’s, but he used more substrate and packed it tighter than I did. If you start having gaps form around substrate, between coir and tub, pack gap with coir/vermiculite/other naturally sterile substrate to reduce space for side-pins micro climate to form. Will have much more to share about the whole process as I can, demonstrating & explaining from start to finish how I did this, and what I could do better. Appreciate the question, thanks for checking this out!

You said the stumps left behind from harvesting creates the perfect microclimate? I've always heard that it's bad to leave the stumps because it will cause contamination. That's about the one thing I hate about this community. There's so much contradicting information it's hard for me to really like go off of somebody's text because you're here like you say this and then turn around and hear other people say it will cost contamination and for me if I just had to get the supplies, learned the most basic concepts of cultivating mushrooms, and just took off. By the way I'm not doubting what you say I'm actually doubting everyone else because it never really made sense that a mushroom would contaminate itself. Idk great job on the b+ though that was a helluva flush. 🍄❤️

That’s why I recommended a great book that’s a reliable reference in the description by Paul Stamets. He gives you all the research and references you could want, and helps cut through the BS. I 100% understand your frustration. I will never claim to be an expert, and I’m simply sharing my experiences. Try for yourself, contamination is easy to spot. Growing is easy and cheap, you can do it again using your old leftovers (rice, pasta, bread, etc) for grain spawn too. Keep it simple and you’ll find satisfaction quickly. Thank you for sharing. I am trying to be a kinder mycologist than those I’ve experienced online myself. Facebook groups are pointless hell. Avoid posting there anyway. More hate than help. I’ll double check I added that book in description. I may have forgotten. Thanks again!

You’d be smart. More variety too. Main advantage of big tub is I can attach grow light to lid, they’re not too short. Can still just place small boxes in a big box like a grow chamber when you get to fruiting. No need for multiple small lids, faster misting and fanning all together. Easier to maintain at and between harvests. Easier to dry after soaking in smaller volumes. Do it.

@LT.Goodman really just out of curiosity to be honest. Making it crack on purpose once you've gotten a few flushes might not be a bad idea even. If it's already pinning on the sides, why not give it more surface area? Can't hurt if you have a few tubs going to try it on one and test it side by side.

What’s your spawn to substrate ratio
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
@ItsCheechFool I used about 4 x 0.66 quart jars spawn for 1 x 650g brick coir. Could’ve probably used 2 bricks coir and same grain spawn and had similar results. Once it starts colonizing coir it can progress pretty quickly. I didn’t pack these tubs as tightly as I should have. If I had, it would’ve been pretty thin. Hence 2 brick recommendation. Can always use more or less spawn. More = faster. But prepping more jars may not be worth the time saved colonizing. Of course, If you’re in a real hurry, just fruit straight from spawn jars. It’s all very flexible, and coir is very easy to work with. Hope this helps.

@@floki-man in botany I learned that if you don’t pack it just lightly level the soil leave it lightly and the root system will suck up the extra space. So once it actually have a root ball it becomes compact. Packing it beforehand could lead to slowed growth premature growth etc. does the same apply for mycology ?
@floki-man
@floki-man Год назад
@ItsCheechFool just saw your replies: flushes, may only get 2-3 flushes before they’re kid of sporadic, but you can keep harvesting as long as you feel it’s worth maintaining the Tub. Each flush smaller than the last of course. Mycology is quite different from plants as far as soil/substrate. Once the mycelium colonizes the substrate, it will be very possible for it to start shrinking. Packing tightly is best with coir, and you’ll get double the substrate in if you pack it, which may double yield. The substrate cake will also be stronger if packed tighter. So easier to handle/flip when harvesting if you want to look for side/bottom fruits.

If you’re trying to increase concentration of active compounds in mushrooms, grow as cool temperatures as you can. Cold colonization and grows makes any substrate produce better fruits, in my experience and from what I read. Appreciate the opportunity to discuss this, hope you clean yer backyard.
