Tooly Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 anyone have any experience spawning shrooms? do i need some of these special mail order grain-to-grain bags? or can i just use some reynolds oven bags? anyone got a favourite medium? i was thinking some birdseed and vermiculite or perlite on the bottom and top? i know this is an off-colour topic and all, but im only talking about growing portobellos, im a freak, i love em.

Northern Wish Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 I love portabellos too , and have a little experience. I used a rice medium (you have to steam the shit out of it to rid bacteria). As for the bags, I don't know what type of instructions you have- but I used two old aquariums. I got the kit at a head shop for $20- and scored around 50 large mushrooms for the $50 total investment. This made a tonne of killer evenings. Nothing like a great spaghetti dinner, followed by the strangest dessert ever Sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooly Posted March 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 the bags are good for bulk. instead of little cakes you mix a big bag of it, when thats colonized you spawn it into a bigger bag, so on and so forth till youve got the right amount of the stuff,,, i did rice cakes once last year,, worked out okay but im seting my sights higher this time. alot of ppl i know like to cook with the portobellos too so the more the merrier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
