i wish i had the patience to "jar it". i'm working with the old school method cows, poo, then shrooms. i live on several acres of farmland. so i figured if i could feed the cows..... we have a few shrooms that pop up. i had mentioned in an earlier post the chemical by products in cheap feed kills/chokes out anything making an attempt to grow. i would love to be able to step outside and pick my own 'shroomies

Well throw a good cow pie or two into a pile dump some spores on it and cover it with hay or something. It'll probably work

im kinda getting sick of "jarring it" as well, maybe i should just go empty the cakes in a pile of rabbit compost and hey... i just don't like looking at the stuppid micylium every damn day to see it has hardly done crap. the teks make it seem like it takes a month from innoculation to harvest, turns out it takes almost as long as my bud, i figured this would be a lot less time intensive, thats why i did it, as my new 250 watt cab wont be up and running for a week or so and i am getting bored. watching fuzz grow is worse almost than not growing.

this thread is hilarious. godkas, keep up with the pics i want to see if u pull this off. i still havent gotten my spores in the mail yet. i was late ordering them, im expecting them anyday now. we'll find out if sporestore.com is trustworthy or not.

I tossed the 2-liter today. All the mycelium flattened out and disappeared. Inside was uncolonized. I am still holding out hope for the square cake but not much. I should be seeing severe primordia if not pinning by now and so far nothing. I rehydrated the cake and am waiting to see results.

Growing Shrooms can be tricky. I decided to try buying a kit to make thing a little easier. The one I am trying is called the MYG Kit from MYGTech.com so far so good.
