    Mushroom Farmer Attempts Green

    I cant say. I have heard it doesnt matter whether fresh or saltwater fish. As far as manure, I see many people say nay, but I dont see why you cant use it fresh, provided its at least been flushed. Mushrooms enjoy similar PH, and I have used fresh for those.

    Thanks! I learned it from an Aussie farmer here. He used a manure mix/alongside a fish in a deep hole. Grew the biggest bush I ever seen. The easiest fish to catch near the future growsite are hand sized bluegill. Soooo, figure 1 per plant, in a 3ftX3ft hole.

    Mushroom Farmer Attempts Green

    After spending years honing my mushroom farming knowledge, I have decided to trade my white thumb for a greener shade. I dont have the money for seeds, nor do I trust seedbanks/brokers yet, so Im using bagseed. My goal is 1lb from 4 plants. I have manure a-plenty, and am thinking a horse...

    How long til they show sex ?

    Do you have a seed stock? When I finally get my hands on something GOOD, Im gonna collect pollen so I can pollinate individual sites. Even if you primarily use cuttings, you cant deny the pros of a good bean stock.

    Greenhouse/Seedlings question

    I am new to this hobbie, and have a couple questions. Should I move my greenhouse to full sun, and also, is it time to plant these Jiffy Pellets? This is 1+day of germination
