- In this video we clone a puffball mushroom (Calvatia gigantea) onto MEA and BCYA agar - to purchase our living mycelium cultures and other products visit our ETSY shop Freshfungi etsy.com/shop/f... for more information visit our website freshfromthefar... MUSHLOVE
my 2' X 4' X 11.5" flow cabinet (FFU) came in today.
so happy that Gary inspired me to go as far as I have with fungi farming !!
Thanks Gary (and friends), you've all help change my life for the better !
🍄❤️
What unit did you get?
You should dip your hands in some chicken of the woods hehe, puffball is nice too :)
Fresh from the farm!! Yes!!
good timing, I just found my first puffball yesterday
why do you use such a large piece of the mushroom ? mine always turn green unless I use a very small piece (2mm/3 or less)
It’s all about sterility - size doesn’t matter
@@FreshfromtheFarmFungi You say all about being sterile....as you don't flame sterilize between culture grabs.
Hi. What medium do you used on the video? & do you have the results?, I’m interested on see the color of the mycelium on petri's dishes. Thanks
Hi. I wanted to know whether spawns can be stored in paper bags or freezer paper? Will affect the mycelium run?
So what sort of substrate do u plan on growing this out on?indoors or out?
outdoors
Is there a way to commercially cultivate puffballs indoors? has it been done?
Not sure but it would be a splendid offering at the market year round!
what do they taste like?
@@MaxS535 Giant puffballs (calvatia gigantea) are actually saprobic.
unsure of the species in the video, Gary needs to have a PCR test run & I am sure he knows someone for that
Heyy brother! So I noticed you have a vertical laminar flow hood. I've mostly just seen horizontal flow hoods being used in mycology so Im curious if youve had any issues like more contam or anything vertical one? I heard the main con is you cant stack stuff.. but any other drawbacks? Thanks
ruclips.net/video/v5l5yNCxsBs/видео.html check out this video - I use both in my lab now. The vertical hood I like for doing tissue culture work and pouring plates and the horizontal hood I use for substrate inoculations
we ate puffball for breakfast, just raw, soft, and yummy flesh that I swear is just one step away from fresh mozzarella cheese!!!
but what willlll they grow on? that's the question to be answered :-)
PSA: Don't eat raw wild mushrooms, ever. Glad you didn't experience any I'll side effects, but this is how you give yourself food poisoning or serious GI upset.
