I love your videos. It’s like a nice breath of fresh air from the constant “influencers”. Both of you guys are soft spoken and so knowledgeable. Thank you for sharing all your cool knowledge!!
Homemade Sriracha is easy to make with stuff from the garden. That would be a good episode since we know now that Sriracha can be sold out for months at a time. It requires minimal firmentation time for some recipes.
I want to do that for some time now, just need more info on it and when to do int and how to get spores of mushrooms I like it too like Honey mushrooms, and other veriety of mushrooms. I live near woods and lots of fallen trees ect, Oak's 🌳🌳too
You guys are amazing! such an inspiration! I can't to try this, I've grown mushrooms indoors only and want to try this method! I'm so exited thanks for sharing!
May I ask where you got the drill bit for the angle grinder and what it's called? I've asked at all the stores around me and they now think I'm nuts. Please help me find one haha
If you live somewhere with cold winters (like zone 6 or colder), I would wait till spring or keep your inoculated logs under a blanket until it gets warmer just because there’s a danger of killing the mycelium when they’re first inoculated. But after a few months of it spreading through the log they are fine to stay outside for good!
Hey I've been watching your videos for a time now and I'm very inspired by you, I want to know that if I've grown mushroom from spawns, can now once I have them do I need to buy spawns again or is there a way to grow them from grown mushroom like using them like seeds or something? Please help
Hey thanks for the great video! Mushrooms produce D2, not D3. Curious about the production of D2 from sun exposure. Will go research now 😊 thanks! Ergocalciferol might be the name of mushroom D2?
So my understanding is that Shiitake, while taking a long time to first produce, will produce for several years. After you harvest, do you put wax over the plug again?
Could you use non-beeswax candle wax to cover the holes? We've been thinking of doing this and don't have beeswax, but we have plenty of spare candles 😅
Just subscribed live your channel Just wondering after you do your initial planting of your shiitake mushrooms in your logs and they sprout do you have to refill the plugs again or don’t bother
I grow them on oak logs. Unfortunately they fruit only in spring and autumn, during summer and winter I have to buy them in supermarket (not that good as mine).
You can cut a piece off a mushroom and this is considered “clone” culture. You can also reuse mycelium chuck it into new growth medium and it will recolonize
Is there any concern about a different, inedible mushroom catching on and growing? Is it unlikely, or do you just know how to recognize edible/inedible mushrooms?
Hi, could you please suggest a supplier for spawn? I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to get shiitake mushroom spawn from a trusted supplier. Thank you so much.

Where do you get your sawdust and plugs from?
Right!
This is a very competently well done video. This lady could have her own nature show on TV.
TV isn’t for educating, it’s for distracting the public
You could put this straight on network TV(and it'd be even better than what's there already). They did an AMAZING job.
@@orandilu989 PBS does stuff like this- if it's already made, you can keep rights to your own work AND sell it on PBS.
Wow this is a fantastic video. Thank you so much for sharing. I feel like I am learning so much from y’all. God bless.
I love your videos. It’s like a nice breath of fresh air from the constant “influencers”. Both of you guys are soft spoken and so knowledgeable. Thank you for sharing all your cool knowledge!!
Nice job!❤, I love it, even though I'm a mycoligst!. Keep up the good 👍 work pimpin!❤
Great channel! I live in Ireland so I cannot use the sun - we simply do not have that luxury here ;) UV-B 280-315 nm is boosting vit D in mushrooms.
Best information video. Covers EVERYTHING. Appreciate all ur time and effort to make this and educate us.
Excellent top quality presentation and information. 👍 well done.
This was helpful. Thank you.
Super helpful video. Once you’ve inoculated logs do you have to worry about other strains of potentially harmful mushrooms growing in the log as well?
this is awesome! its so well done and informative, you come across as both passionate and knowledgeable. thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Amitabha Buddha!
I'm an omnivore and once I ordered a vegan cheesesteak by accident. It featured Shiitake mushrooms. It was really good!
Im new here. Cant wait to try this. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you! So much thanks!
I enjoyed the video. I definitely prefer the long form content with the videos vs shorts. Thanks for sharing
Thank-you, great video.
Just found you! What a well done, informative yet entertaining show. Discovery Channel should be your next gig!!!
Thank you!

I’m use to seeing your short vids, but this is my first time watching a full length. Very very well done! Covers everything
This was excellent. I learned a lot and cannot wait to try growing mushrooms myself.
Thank you
I am a huge forager! But have been definitely wanting to get my own going! Thank you ❤️✌️
Wonderful video girl !
Well done video. Been following you guys on TT/IG for awhile so glad I found you here too!
Glad I stumbled across this, very professional and soothing video.
One of the best videos I’ve seen in a while
Not only the video was informative, but the Raman recipe was quite good.
Very informative. Thanks heaps from Australia
Awesome video! You've got a new subscribers 😅
You guys are amazing! such an inspiration! I can't to try this, I've grown mushrooms indoors only and want to try this method! I'm so exited thanks for sharing!
Wow, this is so informative! Can't wait for the course!
This video deserves more views! Thanks for making it!
Great video!! Thanks for sharing
Thx so much. Not heard many talking about which trees to use.
New to channel. Very informative. Thanks for sharing your journey and knowledge ✌️🏼
I really like this video
Just found you, new sub here, enjoyed
Great stuff! We're growing Shiitakes for sure now! I just have to figure out how to do this in zone 6 where it will be 7 degrees F next week.
I'm going to try this. I usually find morels in indiana this time of year, but no luck so far. It would be nice to have mushrooms on hand!
Nice sweater! ❤, where you get it, mine lookes the same, but a different color?.
Abercrombie?
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Very good presentation.
wow, how did I find your channel only now is beyond me. Instant sub. Great content!
May I ask where you got the drill bit for the angle grinder and what it's called? I've asked at all the stores around me and they now think I'm nuts. Please help me find one haha
😮 Hell yes! I just bought a property and there are sweet gum growing all over it! ☺️ can you grow them on living sweet gum?
That was good 👍 information thanks for sharing 👍☺️👍
I absolutely loved this!
I’m going to start doing this now. Is winter an ok time to start?
If you live somewhere with cold winters (like zone 6 or colder), I would wait till spring or keep your inoculated logs under a blanket until it gets warmer just because there’s a danger of killing the mycelium when they’re first inoculated. But after a few months of it spreading through the log they are fine to stay outside for good!
This is fantastic and look forward to doing this soon. What about winter areas?
Shiitakes grow well in cold areas, they just typically go dormant in the Winter.
@@HomegrownHandgathered like Maine is a good location for lions Maine and shiitake?

Great video! Where do you guys get your mushroom spawn?
Mostly from Field and Forest Products
Very well done
How long does it take for a log to start fruiting?
Wow. Thank you
Good Video! any idea how the drill bit is called? or do you have a link to the shop?
This earned you a new subscriber. *LOL*
How well do they deal with winter? I live in Maine, and we have some harsh winter conditions at times.
nice vid
Alton brown proved that water logging in mushrooms is very minimal.
Great video,, subscribed.
What angle grinder adapter and bit are you using?? does not look like a standard twist bit?
can you guide me through sawdust mushrooming please
Wait how do you get the logs from arborist trucks? Do you just go up and ask them?
Yup! Just make sure it’s safe to approach if they’re up in the tree. They’re used to people doing that to get firewood.
WOW! How did you all learn all this?!!
I can't comment on the longer video for some reason. But how did you learn all of this??? You ever put together a book?
Could you use grain spawn and force into the log like you would dust spawn
What do you do when the log is done, how can you keep growing without buying over and over?
Do you recommend any other varieties to grow in logs besides shiitake mushrooms?
So my understanding is that Shiitake, while taking a long time to first produce, will produce for several years. After you harvest, do you put wax over the plug again?
hey there, what attachment did you put on the angle grinder to make the holes so fast? It looks way easier than using a drill
We live in Kansas with cold winters.Would it still be possible to grow mushrooms in our climate?And in this method?
Hi. How do you keep your growing area free from pests such as 🐀?
Can you please share the name of the bit you use on your angle grinder and where you buy it? A link maybe?
Nice info? How do in semi arid hot summer environment? Rain 12-15” year.
Once you buy the mycelium once do you have to buy it again?
Could you use non-beeswax candle wax to cover the holes? We've been thinking of doing this and don't have beeswax, but we have plenty of spare candles 😅
Just subscribed live your channel Just wondering after you do your initial planting of your shiitake mushrooms in your logs and they sprout do you have to refill the plugs again or don’t bother
Nope, once the logs are fruiting they just keep going on their own until the log is broken down. No need to reinoculate
How many varieties do you grow and harvest?
Do you think this is possible to grow in SW Florida
How do you dry your shitake mushrooms? Do you dehydrate or freeze dry?
I grow them on oak logs. Unfortunately they fruit only in spring and autumn, during summer and winter I have to buy them in supermarket (not that good as mine).
Nice
Do you need to buy new mycelium every time or can you use the growing mushrooms?
You can cut a piece off a mushroom and this is considered “clone” culture. You can also reuse mycelium chuck it into new growth medium and it will recolonize
This video is so insanely informative. Are you a biologist or anything or is this all self taught?
Thank you! We both have degrees in biology, but we learned how to grow mushrooms from reading and doing it for years
Question, does anybody know what attachment was used on the grinder to make those holes? It seems a lot faster than using a drill.
angle grinder
@@hello-ii5lhthat’s the tool. Not the attachment on the tool. They’re asking about the attachment. :)
@@hello-ii5lh yes I have a grinder and many other tools but that's a specific attachment that attaches to the grinder....that's my question
Is there any concern about a different, inedible mushroom catching on and growing? Is it unlikely, or do you just know how to recognize edible/inedible mushrooms?
Does this work for Canadians too ?
I am in zone 5b, quite harsh winter with temperature sometimes reaching -30C.
@MitchelleDavis-bh1yj ???
How did you make the miso?
Hi, could you please suggest a supplier for spawn? I am a complete beginner and have no idea where to get shiitake mushroom spawn from a trusted supplier. Thank you so much.
We usually go with Field and Forest Products. Great family-owned company
Thank you so much for your fast response. I will check out their website for purchase information.
How is the tool called for your angle grinder?
maam this type of mushroom grows by its own in kashmir
It will grow for years on its own or do you have to put mycelium in it again ?
You only have to do it once and then the mycelium takes over the log and produces mushrooms until the log breaks down into compost
@@HomegrownHandgathered thank you so much
A inn kote ngen in a comment to aki lou e
Can bradford pear be used for shitaki?
We haven’t tried that, but I bet oyster mushrooms would do well on it
How does one inoculate a log? I'm open for answers from anyone, I'm curious.
Drill.
Reported! This is too good
What zone are you in, please
This is Oak Mushroom.
60 minutes exactly is the ideal time to sun them (scientifically)
I wish you were single, lmao 😂, My mom always wanted me to have a country girl! (but), i messed up, and city girls aren't reliable ❤!.
