At least the first attempts grew something outside. Pretty sure these are little Nebrodini oysters growing off the unsuccessful indoor blocks. Kind of cool all the same. Might throw a block in a mono tub outside soon before it gets warm.

Idk if they added it to my feed/algorithm due to the episode or just as some good news for the mushroom world but I was presented this article today:

Hello mush community! I just saw the episode Steam Generation and I was wondering can someone put the link of that Chinese steam generator that Erik was showing because everything that I found is not as cheap as he mentioned in this episode?

Okay so what is the soak time for an individual whole oat kernel at 15 psi 250F, not in a bag just full rolling boil loose in the unit under pressure?

No thermal lag or plastic bag to obstruct steam...
Instant ? 1 min? 10m? 

Seems in that particular scenario it should be pretty much sterile by the time it comes up to pressure and temp then comes back down with little to no hold time.

Lions Mane Problem Pulling From Block…

Hey guys! I’m having problems with my lions mane pushing away from the blocks… I’ve been growing lions for 4 years now and I’ve never seen this happen until 6 months ago.. I’ve asked a few farms but can’t seem to find an answer.

I just moved into our new fruiting room, last week I had a perfect harvest of 12 blocks, this week half of my blocks are pulling off the blocks again. I don’t think I have any pictures here, but even the blocks that are fruiting from the top of the blocks rather than side are pushing off and upwards also. I’m fruiting two different strains from capnstem together right now.

I also notice a few blocks that have excess metabolite build up in the bottom of the bags, so far it doesn’t look like those fruits are pushing away from the block, but if I remember correctly in the deep dive video you guys mentioned that can happen due to using to much spawn?

has anyone experienced this or know what’s going on?

We got 1lb 7oz of Enoki. I feel like I didn't grow them correctly yet here's something so I'm stoked. Any criticism on the Enoki'd be appreciated. 

Also for me the Last of the just for fun Cordyceps Militaris harvest as I actually have a really cool/wicked legit company who wants to buy the cordys. I've got almost 100 cordyceps grows ATM. All wicked good LC and the whole round is Albino or an awesome Variegated strain.

I got one of these water flow controller for my pneumatic bagger and I've always wanted it to work better.  last week it broke, so I got a nicer flow meter valve for it, that turned out way worse and I ended up replacing the whole thing to get back to where I was but I'd love to know if there is a step up in quality.  I saw some shit that was like 1K but I'd prefer a couple hundred.

YOOOOO Mycowizard Mad dogssss. Any chance of being able to add a download to app feature. Our farm is off-grid so have to subside on downloading content when we get access to the precious tinterweb. Living the mycological dream here in Snowdonia, North Wales. Thanks for such awesome mycowizardry, you are all excellent!

How bad did I mess up? I just bought 250 lb of these soy pellets. I never even thought to look at the tag. 🤦

Hello all, any recommendation for light in the fruiting room? I bought T8 6500K, but my insurance doesn't want me to put it in my fruiting room because its not seal perfectly. I try to seal it with silicone but they said no.
