Default Mushroom Compost
Anyone use mushroom compost in their soil/soilless mixes ??

I've heard its great, lots of good microbes.

Thinking of doing an organic nute grow.

Working out a soilless organic mix(media)

Never done an organic grow, I can't grow in soil, so it will be a soilless mix.

Growers bible says they use it for soil and soilless, but your right soilless is inert so if you start amending it,I guess technecly its soil, but I'll never tell.
I was thinking coco, perlite, Mushroom compost, bat guano, ??

.
Mushroom Compost - it is the left over soil (compost) from a commerical mushroom grow. By law, the stuff has to lay fallow (unused) for two years, before it can be sold. It tends to be pretty decent stuff. Because so much fungi action has occurred in it.
.
I have mixed it with equal parts of worm castings, pertilite and some of my own compost & gotten good results. The stuff I bought was at a grocery store - greenhouse. I only paid $ 5 for a 40 pound bag. So, it was cheaper than most stuff you get at Wally World. It was very dark, & earthy smelling - always good signs. Plus since it has to sit so long, no weeds popped up, and there were no bugs (pests - gnats, flies or grub worms).

Found this.
