Hot damn! I thought you guys went out of business or something happened, seeing how uploads came to a grinding halt. Glad to see you're going strong! 👍
Driving across the country and sitting in my hotel room scrolling through instagram then I see a post. After waiting the duration of a human pregnancy, life is good, a new Southwest Mushroom video has blessed us with its presence
You’re an inspiration and well deserving of the noble peace prize for being the most peaceful person I’ve ever seen. I’ve dropped my plate stack in lab before and my reaction was much louder. Thanks for not editing that out, and thank you for these videos, they’ve been priceless.
You really do care about mushrooms. I love your ever evolving lab setup and your continued standard to maintain a strict clean lab space. Love your enthusiasm and I hope Southwest Mushrooms continues to prosper.
I could watch this non stop. Years ago I trained as a medical lab tech and my favourite rotation was microbiology - this makes me happy - I need to do this again ❤️
@chicofromph33nix64 start small. Still air box. Get a liquid culture from the internet. Get Paul Stamets book on how to grow. Research Research Research! What just keep learning
@@joshdobesh I got a flow hood on the way and getting a still air box in the near future.... I have a few syringes of spores and LC already... I've inoculated 4 bags but 2 just stalled out on me.. the others look like they're coming along.. i got some books I'm reading from Terrance McKenna and learning from videos.... I'm definitely going to look into that book you recommend, thank you very much... I've been interested in growing mushrooms for about 6 months now,but I freaking love it already... plus the community is so loving and everyone enjoys helping others out... ever since I've watched southwest mushrooms videos I felt this is the road I wanna take... their warehouse is just a mile up the road from me.. I want to get on that level someday.. I need to take a trip over there to see their set up... i guess start with friends and family and grow from there... you're right,just gotta start small and take baby steps... I'm looking way ahead of myself... I'll make something of this, I know it... sorry for the novel,but REALLY APPRECIATE THE ENCOURAGEMENT...💯💪🏽🍄❤
I get my from an online store his got shroom, psychedelic and microdosing products well refined also ships to anywhere discreetly, can also guide you on anything....?
Love what you do man. I have watched every last one of your videos. And you personally inspired me to start growing flushes. I have done well. And will be hitting the farmers markets in less than 2 months now
That was great seeing your petris fall. Thank you for leaving in the errors. When watching you it's easy to think "wow mike has it all figured out" and then be discouraged by the mistakes we make. When we see you make mistakes it's a good reminder.
Hot damn I’m obsessed. I’ve been working in the lab with agarose for gel electrophoresis but all I think about is doing this kind of stuff. Thanks for sharing!
genial que dejaste tu error con las placas, hasta los mejores se equivocan, gracias por tus aportes bro increíble tu laboratorio abrazo grande desde Argentina!
I've been making soma, which is just wild mushrooms, fermented with yeast, sugar, leaves, and distilled water. Looks like it's beer, but seems to be a semi active liquid culture in terms of growing them. The spores settle to the bottom, just like yeast. I don't have a sterile lab, I'd be curious if you could prove this would work as a viable spore syringe, without being steam sterilized, or isolated. I'd also be curious if that would work as is for sterile spawn, or pasteurized bulk sub. It would further explain how ancient people worked with mushrooms without sterile techniques. From Soma medicine, I think they would inoculate piles of logs, and once they would be colonized, they'd be moved into caves. I think they used to put the spawn in clay casks inside the cave, if I'm not mistaken. This would have been around and before the dark ages. I've also been studying Ectomycchorizae, and I think Soma can do similar things to mushrooms, as in integrate foreign DNA into their genetic code... seems like a labs job to prove tho lol
wow you could see how pissed he was dropping that. it is crazy how much work it is to get mushrooms. I just buy the grain spawn but someday maybe get into this level.
I need to try agar. Im wondering the best way to collect lions mane spores. The bottom of my tent is covered in white from them dropping. Im pressing my tincture and making the decoction today from them. Thanks man!
@@theodorekr9701 its all sitting in a jar of alcohol hahaha just got the spores on a dog cage mat or whatever you'd call it. People get the martha tent then put it on top of it. Maybe a razor. Its just not flat. He's got some great videos though your right
Sou do Brasil. Gostei das dicas. A minha pergunta é: Quando uso grãos de geração 1 para ágar ou cultura líquida, tanto o ágar quanto a cultura líquida são considerados que geração? Obrigado.
Is that parafilm stuff all that much better than scotch tape? I don't like how loose the tops of petri dishes are. Makes me nervous about contam. Been using ketchup cups/lids.
Hey @Southwest Mushrooms! Amazing videos, inspired me to spread the spores too! How long do you soak the wheat before sterilization? Do you preboil it?
I really enjoy your videos, thank you...I'm just starting out, would you suggest mixing different agar cultures of same species from different suppliers, or keeping each separate? Was just wanting to take best growth from each dish and mixing into my grainbags. What are your thoughts? Will be oysters and lions mane to start.
Mushroom Mike, I'm amazed you can be so rough with those bags, being that the seal width is only 1.6mm (1/16"). Lots of growers recommend a 5mm seal width.
Anyone have experience with tryptone v peptone for making agar and LC? Can anyone recommend one over the other or is a mixture ideal? Thank you so much for any guidance.
New Southwest video? Never clicked anything faster! 🙌🏻
Thanks for not editing out the fumble. You gave us useful information plus it's comforting to see that even professionals have those moments.
Hot damn! I thought you guys went out of business or something happened, seeing how uploads came to a grinding halt. Glad to see you're going strong! 👍
So glad you're back! Because of your earlier videos I learned how to successfully grown mushrooms in my basement!!! Thank you!!

Even though I know this and have done this about 100 times I still feel like I'm learning something watching your videos
I'm so glad you are making videos again!!!
Happy to see you putting out new videos brother!
Yeahhhhhh brah, educate the myco curious! Thanks for all your efforts, everyone gain by this knowledge being out there!

The intro was pretty darn good. You e stepped up your filming game.
glad to have you back!
Best content on youtube! Love it. Relaxing and informative.
You really do care about mushrooms. I love your ever evolving lab setup and your continued standard to maintain a strict clean lab space. Love your enthusiasm and I hope Southwest Mushrooms continues to prosper.
Yay! Nice to have a new video from you! Thank you!
I can't wait to move and start growing my own mushrooms! Welcome back!
Glad you're back. Was worried there for a while.
Respect for including the dropping of the petri dishes. I have really enjoyed your easy way that you show us how you work.
Absolutely loved that funky intro 🤌🏼
Welcome back! Love your guys content!
Love your videos, glad you're back! Woo hoo! Just grew our first Lion's Mane and Chestnuts are fruiting now. Thanks for your excellent videos/info.!
Good to see you back bro!
heyyy you are back! glad you are okay.

Thank you for being an inspiration.
Finally a new video!!! Long long waited!
Really good video! I really like how professional you do this job 👏
OH MY GOSH THEY ARE BACK!!!! I just checked back on this channel to see if anything was posted and there are new vids!!!! Love you guys!
👆👆👆👆I recently started microdosing and using psilocybin coupled with therapy. It has helped opened my emotions up
Look him up 👆
So happy to see a video from you really brightened my day. Keep up the great work.
Glad to see another video. Mike you inspired me to start my own mushroom cultivating business
I would love to do the same... just don't know where to start... wishing you all the success with your business... MUSH LOVE AND RESPECT

That's interesting, I love reading about different processes and especially older ones.
I'm a total history nerd so if you have any good reading material on what you're discussing I would very much appreciate it.
Your a beast bro! I really learn a lot from your videos. Thank you.
Beautiful work as always
New video, thanks Mike! More vids please!
Do you have any videos preparing your grain and making the bags?
This guy like dedicated his life to this process and its awsome. Ive tried its not ez to perfect fungus growing
Sound music for the intro and outro are great do this
Love the intro
Mike would make a great Chewbacca for halloween. 😁

Amazing content as always. So helpful to us newbies. What is that cylindrical thing I'm assuming your sterilizing your lab instruments in?
I’m glad you are back, new lab?

Appreciate you keeping it real with fumbling the plates ha! What do you use to incubate plates?
i wish you lived in my area dude
Very cool place you have there. What is the reasoning behind liquid vs agar for inoculation? Thanks for the video. 👍🏼👍🏼
Liquid tends to be better and colonize quicker.
I love the spicy new intro
Do you ship fresh mushrooms from online?

I need to try agar. Im wondering the best way to collect lions mane spores. The bottom of my tent is covered in white from them dropping. Im pressing my tincture and making the decoction today from them. Thanks man!
You can just use a piece of fruiting body and drop it on the agar to clone. Philly Golden Teacher has a video on cloning with agar.

what was that name of the music you had at the end ? got intense suddenly :) and i dig it
Is that the 27.3 Quart benchtop autoclave from All American?
I purchased a used milk stock tank for $250. It is insulated and hold as much as 400 gallons
Is that parafilm stuff all that much better than scotch tape? I don't like how loose the tops of petri dishes are. Makes me nervous about contam. Been using ketchup cups/lids.
Parafilm is industry standard. solid for squeezing petri dishes together and allowing proper gas exchange.

Why use the wedges rather than inoculation with a syringe? I wasn't clear on the benefits of doing it that way
Mushroom Mike, I'm amazed you can be so rough with those bags, being that the seal width is only 1.6mm (1/16"). Lots of growers recommend a 5mm seal width.

I have a Lc of reishi that just passed qc on agar, but as I was agitating it, I can see a hair of mine? Is that going to be a problem?

Mike what kind of pen did you use on Petrie dishes. If I use permanent marker the alcohol washes it away instantly. Let me know my friend
