Mushroom Totems

Chris Parker from Asheville Fungi demonstrates how to make mushroom totems with Chicken-of-the-woods and wild cherry wood. Mushroom totems are one of the easiest and quickest ways to inoculate logs and grow mushrooms for many years.

Great video Chris! I really enjoyed the Mushroom Master Class last weekend. Looking forward to more!

great video, I do this also but I use 6" wide grafting tape on the inoculated joints because the bugs will get in real fast.
if anyone is wondering why the cardboard & first sawdust spawn layer is put down on the ground, its because fungi will produce an enzyme to repel other fungi when they come into contact with each other creating a natural chemical barrier between the two or more types of fungi & giving a chance for your fungi to outgrow its competitors.

Curious how this turned out. Should be fruiting here in the next month or 2? Maybe an update video.

[@forestfarmacy9045]

Yes! Thank you for checking in. They’re not fruiting yet but we will post an update when they do

@@forestfarmacy9045 has this worked for you before with COW? I have been treating my logs by boiling or PCing and I'm getting really good colonization. but this would be the first success that I've seen without those steps
