One great thing that's happened from stopping any extra work (side work or mushrooms) past couple months I've studied a bit on extraction in general.  Read Pihkal and Tihkal which was awesome.  My self Christmas presents going to be 1000ml extraction gear. Very excited about that then I'll never waste anything and start a bit of soxhlet stuff

Well it worked well. The grow room can handle a lot more than I thought originally but I found my main issue to be Refrigeration as I'm rocking like 2 regular fridges. The CO2 meter and a handful of timers made the growroom basically turn key

I didn't have clients so that was the 2nd issue.  I was able to grow and sell pretty directly to an actual mushroom business but the Chesnuts for me is an investment like a month ahead and while waiting for payment on one harvest (87lbs Nuts & $80ish of chicken of the woods) I was ready to harvest the next, realized that I might not be paid and didn't feel comfortable being "owed" another harvest ($500+ times 2 for 2months of blocks for me)   decided best to focus back on the regular grind- Go lay some bricks and turn into to food and shelter.  I am pretty certain that I will succeed but not through this winter. For starters I'll probably make a farm stand for the Farm, NH has decent homestead laws. As well as try to get into the markets my self. 

Right on man. 

Tyler I don't even know how I got those numbers/destinations but I figured it out. Dumb question with the answer like part of the question. % and math is not my jam

So I remember 7. I think you mean 7% to the pellets so like if I was to try to make the 9lb block 40% water which already has 7% id be looking for 33% H2O or pretty much like 2.9lb to 6lb of combo pellets? I'm probably not doing the correct math. I'm used to pretty much doing about 3lb distilled H2O to 2lb pellets and I blend the bran in the 3lbs of water first 

They're doing well dude. Pinning like crazy. Can't wait to see this room full of Chestnuts. All your blocks aside from a few little 5lb'rs I made. Did a few LI to bulk tho recently/pretty excited.

Gregorright on. It's pretty funny because I was doing a lot of commercial masonry a couple years ago and was given pallets and pallets of Coroplast to temporarily cover windows. If only I saw the potential for keeping it but I have so much gathered free stones, boards friggin pretty much whatever I got it in a pile somewhere.
