Something to look into is the methods used to produce mycoprotein foods. Quorn meatless chicken nuggets are made from mycelium of Fusarium venenatum that has been grown in a sterile system. The mycelium is rapidly grown in large sterile chambers in essentially liquid culture, Then the solid mushroom material is then filtered out and utilized. There is a fair amount of info on their techniques available online, and perhaps you could contact them for more detailed info. I believe this would be the natural progression of your aerated mycelium culturing. Thank you for sharing!

I think others could benefit even if they don’t do bulk blocks. If you’re inoculating logs with sawdust rather then doing small holes and stretching your sawdust you could make a crap ton of sawdust to use on logs. They use small holes but if you had tons of sawdust you could just drill a one inch hole the length of the log and jam it full and that’d probably speed up inoculating logs. I’m going to try that and see. I saw in Japan they’d cut up oak logs and put them into bags and steam them in a room and inoculate them. They’d probably benefit. It’s kind of cool they actually use hardwood and then let them sit for five years the video said and then they put the blocks into the ground and remove the bag to let the Reishi grow in a hoop house. It’s cool to watch.
Seems we all are going in the same direction, progressing according to our experience. I needed to see this! LC is becoming my thing, and guess you know why:) Many thanks!
Great video! How about a blender type stir bar that you use for a few minutes before you want to inject... that or simply a very big needles because there really is no reason for small once since you are just squirting it in and not injecting anything most of the time.
Yeah I was wondering the same thing about the syringe specifically: why not just use a syringe barrel *without* the actual injection tip locked onto it? Then the tip of the syringe barrel should be wide enough to accommodate the thick mycelium, especially if it's a larger syringe like a 20cc (or even 50cc+) or something -- if it's not a luer lock, the tip can probably be cut near the barrel to increase the hole size further. ☺️
@3:28 You could be a perfect candidate to find the "mushroom farmer's CO2 consuming symbiont". So, say, rather than pump the CO2 and moisture out and waste it, what if that CO2 could be used to grow 200 gallon tanks of xenic cultured algae, and them pump that back into the grow room as oxygen enriched air. I've been trying to think of an ideal CO2 symbiont, and xenic liquid culture definitely comes to mind. As to how much CO2 each tank could consume, that is another question altogether... (to determine feasibility of gallons per cubic foot of mycelium)
I haven't thought about it until reading your comment, but I wonder why mushroom farmers don't utilize plants (including algae) to take the CO2 that the mushrooms produce, and turn it back into oxygen that the mushrooms can then breathe. I guess because it would have to be a closed system to keep the mushrooms contaminant-free? I think you're on to something! Mushroom + algae farm sounds like a fantastic idea. 🤩
Thanks for another great video. I haven't been watching in a while, but when I was first getting started in mushroom cultivation, etc. I watched all of your videos because they are the best. Even now I learn something awesome every time view one of your youtubes. Thanks again for all the great advice it really has helped me tremendously. - the only addison
Nice work. So back to the old question that often pops up with mushroom growing; 'Cool, Now that I've got it working well, how can I make it pay at least enough to cover its own cost to have done it, but can I flip what I've done into a buck and get something going?' and will the body allow it.' ;)😉🤔🍄 Really though, is it just able to be geared for large scale, and what volume 'shot' is required to ensure as rapid colonization as GTG or agar inoculation? Could this benefit, with tweaks, a longer storage time for small growers not interested in volume, but in maintaining a > 32oz smaller? quart? pint? sized LC for longer with less maintenance and better success? There might be a market for such a system with the current rise of home growers for such "make it easier" things.
If you had the jar with a pipe to an on/off valve then the filter you could switch off the air to the filter, pressurise the jar with the air pump then use the air pressure from the pump to pump out the lc via another pipe with an on/off valve near the end. You'd have an extra pipe in each mason jar but you could do away with the needle. You might even be able to have a bung instead of an on/off valve the extra pipe and just remove the bung then pinch the pipe in-between each inoculation then put the bung back in when you're finished and switch the air back on to the filter.
I get what you are saying! I think its a genius ideal. I would still use the hose not pipe its easier to clamp off with ive clamps. The ideals running through my head right now with possibilities endless
Your air pump must be a beast! I attempted this with a couple cheap aquarium air pumps I had laying around and neither of them were able to pump through the 0.22u syringe filters =\
Seems like using condiment squeezy things or frosting bags could be an inexpensive and safe method - a step between pouring and using some sort of needle. More controlled.
It’s kinda strange at first glance, to me that is, due to Co2 is “normally “ high for vegetative growth... spawn run.... outside growth underground... etc.. Then Add O2 and lower Co2 for fruiting... Definitely Interesting.... EVERYONE shld experiment for themselves also ... for the experience as well as finding New Techs Very cool none the less
I just started growing and went straight to LC to bulk. Found that Pink and Florida take to masters mix well, blue and gold are second fastest, and the kings ehh.. I'm about 4 weeks into making bags and found my first set of bags weren't getting enough fea so the myc was stalling (started taking back off once I unwrapped the bags lol). I decided to do it that way because I don't have a laminar flow box yet and thought grain would be too risky, and still air box too tight of a space to inoculate that many bags. Now I'm wondering how much oxygen gets forced out during the pressure cook, and since I'm not mixing the bags with spawn they aren't getting aerated at that step so myc can only grow so far before choking. It would be interesting to see if pumping purified air into the bags would help. It would be crazy seeing a whole mess of IV lines running to puffed up bags. Would probably have to run the air through a water chamber to avoid pushing dry air into the bags. Would probably have to put a timer on it too idk. Lots to think about and try in the future. Thanks for sparking thoughts and sharing info!
I found with LC that as long as your bags have filters and it is not blocked that helps as well as shaking and mixing the substrate in the bag at least once a week during colonization helps it grow faster and keeps air available for the mycelium.
@@tonystewart7624 Thanks, I mixed a couple bags the other day as tests to see if that would help speed up colonization in bulk so it's nice to hear you found it does. I know people do it with spawn so I figured it should but wasn't sure. I had a bag bust at the bottom seam though, bad factory weld I guess and/or I was just too rough with it
@@Ivan.Wright you're welcome brother I've only been growing for about a year and this was an exciting but sometimes overwhelming hobby at first and I always appreciated when someone with more experience offered me helpful advice. Good luck and happy growing 👍
One last thing before I log of I stop mixing it after it's reached about 75% colonization, after that I let it finish colonizing until it's ready to fruit, on average with oysters it between three weeks and 30 days from spawning until I begin fruiting
@@tonystewart7624 Thanks for clarifying. When you said that originally I made a guess that you'd want to stop at a certain point to allow for the "solidification" of the block. And thanks for the timeframe, my oldest blocks are at about 4 weeks but with them stalling and unmixed that seems to line up. They seem to start growing again quite quick once the fae was fixed. Thanks again man!
Peter McCoy in Radical Mycology book talks about just growing LC and then filtering out mycelium and eating it for medicinal purposes. I guess that would be a good technic to grow quick and a lot for that purpose. Kinda like growing spirulina . Thanks
Nice video! I have also read it in Stamets book. The question is, can you sterilize the pump intake to the filter by cycling isopropyl through it and then dry in front of the flow hood?
Hi, very interesting video. I wonder if this system can also work with smaller sized pipes or if the greater pressure drop could compromise its operation. Thank you
What is that impulse sealer you are using? That thing is awesome! My current issue is bags not sealing properly. If anyone knows what that auto impulse sealer is, please let me know. Thanks ahead!
What would happen if used a syringe port rather than micropore so you could add air pressure to the top of the liquid pushing the liquid culture through the bottom 1/4" tube? you do a great job. thank you
Rather than using that cattle injection needle, and rather than free pouring, how about using pressurized air into the LC jar and then a 1/2" outflow hose controlled by IV clamp. Less clogging and less equipment.
cool ass shit no really nice job! just wondering once you got a decent amount growing can you unplug and refrigerate to slow down the growth? again nice work! :)
You think if you put a stir bar in the jar as well as the tube, you could stir it up really good right before you shoot it into bags? To help with the chunks?
I'm thinking of using my 250 gallon IBC to make oyster mushroom liquid culture. I have a commercial landscaping company that delivers finally ground wood chips to my vegetable farm for free. I want to see if I can scale up mushroom production in an unconventional way.
Can you not just add a second filtered airline that only goes to just below the lid. When you want to use just switch pump to that then remove the filter on the first. The air going in should push the culture out the first tube and into whatever you point it at with no moving parts to clog?
Have you done any experiments on duration? Does it really need to be aerated 24/7 or could the pump be put on a timer and come on say every 4hrs for and hour? If so that would greatly reduce potential for contam
I was fooling around with how to make sterile bulk spawn, but I couldn’t make the connection with the sterile air filters.. thanks for the information, check out a beer fermentation system plus your filtered air tek
Why not use an Eberbach stirrer and grind up the mycelium the night before and let it rest. No stirring or oxygen then inject the smaller ground up particles?
So there's no way to retrofit an already existing LC culture to do this right? You have to start from scratch with this in mind from the beginning right?
Hey mate just watched your agar clip and was wondering why or why not you don't add a gram of wood pellets to you liquid culture recipe. I'm a newbie so forgive the question. Cheers
EXPERIMENT: do you think pure O2 would work even better? Could this be obtained by simple electrolysis? Or do you think the electrical current, would negatively effect the mycelium?
So theres a few types of active mushrooms that have active mycelium. This method combined with those genetics plus a way to wash it and dry it out afterwards so the mycelium can be made into powder and capsules. Very interesting. Anyone try adding DMT to their Liquid Culture to ramp up potency? We need a certified HPLC to assist.
I think I might be able to help. I'm talking about the answer ya been searchin for. Hey it'll be sunshine lollipops riding a purple unicorn jumping rainbows and shit man.
You had me until you started talking about your jar lid. You used a Forstner bit to make the holes!? Wtf!? That literally doesn't make sense. Like why, and where did you find one that small? Did you just use the starter tip? It also seems more complicated than the previous one.

Happy to help. It looks like you've had other replies but I can't see them for some reason.
So far you are the only person I can find who does this. You should sell a kit.
I think others could benefit even if they don’t do bulk blocks. If you’re inoculating logs with sawdust rather then doing small holes and stretching your sawdust you could make a crap ton of sawdust to use on logs. They use small holes but if you had tons of sawdust you could just drill a one inch hole the length of the log and jam it full and that’d probably speed up inoculating logs. I’m going to try that and see.
I saw in Japan they’d cut up oak logs and put them into bags and steam them in a room and inoculate them. They’d probably benefit. It’s kind of cool they actually use hardwood and then let them sit for five years the video said and then they put the blocks into the ground and remove the bag to let the Reishi grow in a hoop house.

Wow....I just did my first LC 2 days ago and I thought about blowing air into it. Great to know it 💪
I use a Turkey blasting syringe. It sucks up all the chunky stuff. And if you suck it in and inject it out a few times it breaks it up nicely.
Tanx fot this my brother - love you guys!! Your rack is just to your left!! LOL Happy your good!!

It's the accessibility that's new, not the technology.

If you place the hose in the middle of the lid (center of the jar) you may achieve a more balanced mix of the mycelium.

Why don't you run the LC through a blender before use. You could actually set up a blender of your choice as your vessel to grow your LC directly in!
An O2 concentrator would work better than making a hepa box. Literally has a hepa filter inside
Where can I get those long needles?
