Looking good so far i think. No signs of infection of any kind, nothing that looks wrong. I think its been around 13 days since inoculation.

Peace out x

Well, just an update.

Its colonizing well, but not as fast as some other mushroom journals mention, I'm not to worried though.

I had a fair amount of spores left so i decided to inoculate two further jars. I looked at my local garden center but i couldn't find any vermiculite, so i decided to use brown rice and brown rice flour. I boiled the rice for about 40 minuets, i then mixed it with some brown rice flour. I did this on the 28th and i can see the first sign of colonization.

Peace out x

Yes, i am using it as a substitute to vermiculite. I was unsure if it would work, but after seeing a few grow journals on shroomery.com i decided t give it a go. One thing that seems to happen is that when growing purely in rice, less potent mushrooms grow, so we will have to see how it goes.

Peace out x

not sure i would give up on the potency like that. keep to the aborts and harvest early to keep it high
can u order it online?

i had to. could not find it locally either. had it shipped from oregon or something like that. got way more than i need for now but i am sure to use it with the other three strains i got.

Well, with all the journals i have read, a lot report lower potency with brown rice cakes, I'm not really worried about this.

I looked on ebay, and googled it but i couldn't find any in England. I will run into some eventually.

Peace out x

Default try them
I USED THESE GUYS


Gardening Warehouse Direct

they do ship internationally and vermiculite isnt a fertilizer or anything like that so it should be good.

they tell you shipping before your order
