spawn bag recipes

Does anyone have any good recipes for spawn bags, I've been experementing with grains and brf, but been having some troubles, a good recipe would be greatly appreiciated

65% Coco Coir. 30%Cow Manure Compost. 5% Egg Laying Chicken Feed.

What is chicken feed, millet? Corn?

Best is plain old grain, popcorn or rye. It is a bag, it is meant to be shaken and kneeded in order to spread the growth around as quickly as possible and this can't happen with exotic formulas.


the big boys all use grain or wood chips or dowels, sometimes rye grass seed.

So straight up popcorn would work well? Cus I've been doing brf and it keeps ending up to wet.

Cmon I know u guys got some more recipes up that sleeve' let's here them

Still, exotic concoctions will net you very little. Best to use a substrate that naturaly winds up having the right moisture content. The only problem with pop corn is that it will never absorb enough moisture to enable you to get the full nutrient value from the stuff. If you manage to get the inside of the kernel wet enough, the slime it produces on the outside promotes contamination. If you don't, your corn will dry before you manage to get a great final yield. Still, overall rates are quite good. Rye is your second best but it takes some experimenting to get to the point where the kernels don't burst. Best bet to cheat here is to use gypsum, it will absorb the excess moisture and tweak your PH a bit. The reason no one is offering more suggestions is most likely because there aren't any really.
