We haven’t yet but it would be radical to add that data to the ever growing PCR data that folks like Alan Rockefeller are building! If you want to go in on any costs for sequencing let us know! Consultations@capnstem.com

Fuck Yea! So so glad ya'll are diggin them! We have plenty more coming on a monthly basis!!!

So glad you dig the cultures! Ok so the one we sent out was from Funga Farm over in Denmark, If you check out their instagram he has a whole thing on cultivating this particular strain, pretty radical stuff, Like David Medlock, we have had a lot of luck just fruiting it outside whereas the dudes from Funga have fruiting them indoors for quite a while now!

Oh Hell Ya man! I bet he would Approve! Let us know how it Fruits!

Thank so much! So glad you dug the episodes...I think what is greatly lacking in the mushroom cultivation world is transparency when it comes to strains, that's why aside from our house strains we call em as we found em! I think you should be able to ask anyone selling strains what the hell the origin is and they should disclose such. It is the only way to get proper data from an array of suppliers. We will definitely jam into the winter strains coming up! We had mixed results with masters mix with shiitake strains, the only one that seems to be able to handle 50% soy is 3782...3790 and KOM cant quite make sense of the soy, but there are ways to cut it and say get your masters mix down to 20-30% soy which is similar to a traditional shiitake mix which would be 20-30% wheat midd/bran. An alternative is rice bran, which is the main supplement for all of far west fungi's shiitake blocks.

Not currently...should we make one?

Chris Wilkes In terms of controllers the Hart Solenoid Valve hooks into the POLA system and its controlled via that! So its all you need!

Chris Wilkes Thank you so much for the support and love amigo! The bigger the compressor the better, HART will advise you as to which one they advise you use but you can really go with something smaller and less expensive than a scroll compressor, the minimum size one we suggest is this one:

The cost can vary based on the compressor you get and any of the plumbing and electrical you don't decide to do yourself but let me pull up the price list for the POLA and the HART and post it in the episode description/notes or post it up here
