Can u pm me ur spore source? everything else seems readily available. Maybe I'll try some shittake to start lol looks like a fun little project tho, do they need any sort of light? I know it depends on the variety of shroom.

Ok last question... or two lol sorry
Where did you get the tent, is it custom or purchased?
Is this the controller? http://www.petco.com/product/109981/Zoo-Med-HygroTherm-Humidity-And-Temperature-Controller.aspx
Can I do the bags all the way through or is spawning to Coco coir, verm, spaghum, and turkey litter a requirement.
Sorry for the noob questions, but this is a whole new world to me. And you've clearly got this dialed in nicely.

Bags are fine start to finish but you will need to open them a couple of times daily to give them FAE (fresh air exchange) and mist them. I have gotten lazy and just start them all in bags and them remove them from the bags for fruiting. My mini-greenhouse came from Big Lot's for $20, they are all over ebay too. My substrate mix is coco, seed starter (peat and turkey litter), vermiculite and a sprinkle of lime. Many guys now just use straight coco or even just straight seed starter, either works but I like a mix of them. And yes that is the one from petco I use. I am always happy to answer any questions if I have the answers

You want a "cool" mist humidifier, one without a filter element. Mine is an old school 1gal Kaz and it sits on the bottom shelf of the greenhouse
Humidifier is in the back left corner on the bottom shelf and blows upwards to circulate the cool mist, T5 is just sitting on the top for lighting

Yes the best I have found and used on eBay is "out-grow", just search for "Magic Mountain Mushroom" and he should pop up. He has the pre-made rye berry spawn bags as well as the substrate/compost bags. He has all kinds of myco stuff including bags and what-not. He is the one I used in the beginning until I found out how easy it was to make and do all the spawn, substrate and bags myself.
