I planning my escape from 10x10 Tentville and want to build a freestanding, insulated fruiting room. Thinking roughly 12x24 on a concrete slab with a couple of trench drains but I don't know what material I should use to construct the walls and roof. Wood frame?

Rosecomb is from water correct?
I'm getting it a bit on a couple oyster strains. The grow has a cement floor and I'm using pure water so I'm thinking possibly the water outside the basement foundation is possibly a cause? Next step I guess is A-get good H2O filtered into humidifier and keep cleaner B- install a floor of sorts. Maybe epoxy. Any suggestions welcomed

If you’re into Cordyceps I just made this video because I couldn’t affordably source brown rice so trialed different Organic grains but it’s just part 1 because editing and doing video work while running farm with a toddler is impossible. I also setup a DIY cool bot for temperature control and year round production!

tyvek suits
Hey do y’all reuse and wash your tyvek suits for lab work? If so any special sanitizer or bleach? They say single use but I’m thinking I can wash them?

Scoop out 10 jars of Oats into the pot wanting like at least 10lbs of grains cooked. A jar is almost 1lb dry every time. 12 hr Soak&simmer in good water w/gypsum. Ended with (16lb soaked & simmered+ dried all day and bagged Grains).
-3 four pound bags and 2 two lb bags. Incredible Math that I'd never know how to consider but that's pretty damn perfect 62% grain hydration right there.
10 = 16 - 62% = 6.08 = the H2O

Who's using the black bags? Do you like them? Wondering if the magically increased yields are happening with Chesnuts also. They are pricey for sure. Found 100 for $60 but just wondering other's thoughts/experiences

Tuesday Frigging Night 🤘☮️🤘. Got some agar, got some Liquid mediums and I'm cooking French fries at 420°. This is a good day and I can't wait to take pictures of the cool shit this is all for. Hope everyone is doing well, fully stocked with Green bud and happy for this summer. I am.

Hello everyone! 🍄
I’ve just finalized design for a new mushroom cultivation space and would love to hear your thoughts. The main idea is to use the attic as a plenum to distribute air via ducts to other parts of the space (incubation, fruiting, etc.).
📌 I’m curious about:
Is this system efficient for even air distribution?
Is using the attic as a plenum the optimal solution, or is there a better alternative?
Do you have advice for improving ventilation/structure?
PS. Im not good at drawing 🤣
