Second try using this tek. First try I did some things right, and a few mistakes, mainly with temperatures and using fine vermiculite . Made some adjustments , Temps were pretty good and I ended up six for six. All are producing on first flush, started about a month ago. I am an 68, never would have tried to grow mushrooms until I read this tek, what fun it has been learning about mushrooms and watching each stage. Not huge, but I am super happy, two strains, b+ and golden teacher, thanks Canndo.

Pretty.

Have much trouble with side growth? That is the toughest problem with this method.

Aluminum foil works.

Taped aluminum foil towards the top of the casing as soon as I saw mycelium moving through the casing, couple of weeks ago. 7 dry g on first flush.

Excellent

Now. Isn't that easier than the dunking and rolling and birthing and ports and tyveck and fruiting chambers and fanning and humidity pearls?

And you will get a far greater yield from those six jars than from twice the number of little brown rice pucks.

~70g wet AA+. MSS to UB (Unclebens), noc'd on 9/4, spawned 1:1 (coir), harvested back right cluster today 10/13. It's been just over 13 years since I last grew mushrooms so it feels good to have success.

Well
This tech does not involve substrates other than the corn in the jar.
