Just a heads up, 2 pints of water for that cooker may be enough but for the 23qt presto a lot of folks use you need a minimum of 3qt for 90min. Everyone should follow their own cookers guide, I think it’s just something important to note is all! Thank you for the video. Great info!
Loving your videos Mate. Been looking for cheap flow box ideas for weeks, they're all way too expensive though. Then your demo of your flow box and Eureka........... Plus you're from the North East UK and it all seems trustworthy and possible... Thankyou EZMushroom !!
Pour boiling water over lions mane in jar. Add whole cloves. Cover and store 3-5 days. Strain and refrigerate water. Place lm back in jar with 80 proof organic vodka for 4+ weeks until needed.
just soak it in grain alcohol in a jar for 6 weeks, then strain it. use the left over mushrooms from the alcohol extract and let them barely boil and simmer for about 6 hours. strain that then mix the alcohol and hot water extract together.
When you tip the jar lid upside down, is that rust that I see? If it is, that can be pretty dangerous if it gets into the mushroom, and this is something that you're going to eat! I just noticed that when you tip the lids upside down.
3:20 haha a spoon and syringe 🤣 Btw good vid another title could be 'growing lions mane pf tek way Brings back memories of growing cubies 😜 I dont got a pr cooker so i think im gonna order a pre-made sterile growbag filled with grain and with an injection port + a syringe of liquid culture , and innoculate that and wait. Probably more pricy but itl save me alot of time and effort and bigger yields. And i think il fruit it in a good old shotgun terrarium , what do you think?
Second one yes. Just fill the jar up with water,leave overnight then tip the water out. If the mycelium fluffs back up after a couple of days it should fruit again.
Yes, i can do a full video on this sometime. I would grow out a grain jar until 100% colonized then place a verm casing layer (sterilized) along the top of the grain (to avoid conatms). Then just spray the verm once a day. You can also pack straight wood substrate in the Jar and inject directly into the wood. I have done this and LM loves it .
Yes, i have a video I'm making at the moment on how to do this but with oysters. Just waiting for the jars to fully colonize now. Get yourself the largest jars possible (I use 1 Litre). Leave a gap in the top, sterilize then add grain into the gap.
I usually fill the Jar up with water and let the substrate soak for 12 hours. If the substrate becomes fluffy again within 48-72 hours i fruit them again, otherwise i throw them out.
Im going to make a video on creating one soon. Tincture has been sat around in alcohol for 6months! Moving house very soon so will make the video then.
I got some LM LC and it only seemed to work on one of the 5 or so jars I used it on, I used that jar for G2G which seems to be working though It's a bit annoying.
Thanks for sharing this! Do you tighten the jars before putting in the pressure cooker or find they are hard to open? I’ve got my jars ready and they’re not mason jars either and wondering if there’s a chance they’re going to be hard to reopen. Thanks
Should be fine but dont open them after theyve been sterilized as this will contaminate them again. Unless your using a Still Air Box. If there is a hole in the top of the jar lid they wont be hard. If there is not the jars will be like unopened super market jars which are vaccumed. .
EzMushroom thanks so much for your reply. Definitely makes sense now with the hole in the lid and I’ve got that done also. Thanks I really appreciate it
@@ezmushroom Ah, ok, that makes sense. I've seen multiple videos with the foil, but haven't heard anyone saying what the purpose of the foil was. Thanks for the super fast response! This is RipperJack from season 2 of Tiger King FYI. New sub here
You can get a smaller tower pressure cooker which should work around 7L. Alternatively get a presto imported from america on ebay, thats what i have done.

the fruiting bodies (the actual mushrooms) are not the same as the mycelium. You are harvesting mycelium, mostly. Not saying you're doing it wrong, but it's unusual
Two things, firstly the mycelium contains the majority of the best compounds. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5855563/ www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5987239/ Secondly, that big mass of white stuff is actually a fruiting body which has fruited invitro. When you've worked with Lions mane enough you learn the mycelium is so thin and whispy its barely even visible infact 100% colonization with Lions Mane is barely visible. Once it turns white its pinning / fruiting. three years ago, when i made this video I also thought that was pure Myc but now I don't think it is.
For that I just popped a hole about the size a hole punch makes in the lid before hand. This seemed to yield more mycelium (with the active ingredients) than the small pom poms. Although the pom poms are more aesthetic.
@@snottlebocket Yes, in this video the mycelium also bridges the two inch gap, same will happen if your fruiting out the holes. Just put 2 layers of micropore tape over the hole. Eventually the mycelium will erupt out the hole, then just remove the tape and wait.
I used recycled 400ml Olive jars. If your looking to buy something comparable, these will do the jobs. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08P42YJYB/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B08P42YJYB&linkCode=as2&tag=ezmushus-20&linkId=e40ee0284f7b80bf29f12a6c4ef0caac
What kind of vermiculite is it nobody ever says that that's like the big mystery is it fine ground is a medium or is it coarse vermiculite why are the bags always playing nobody shows what kind of vermiculite is from or where they got it from never make you late that I buy contaminates everything..what exact website did you buy it at.. another thing you using one size jars to measure and another size dryer to grow in what you don't specify what size the jars are then you show the jar that you're growing it with some kind of canal dug down the side of it but you don't say how you did that this video for beginner is useless you don't detail anything which is what a beginner needs
Horticultural grade vermiculite from Wilko is what i used. My website is in the description with literally everything measured out and explained. I mentioned this at the end of the video if you missed it.

Wild. I had no clue you could use the old pftek on lions mane

4 cups vermiculite, 2 cups water, mix to consistency of wet sand, 2 cups brown rice flour powder, mix, pack into jars
Leave a 2 inch gap of substrate from the top of the jar for space the mushrooms to fruit
Whats the atmosphere temperature in your Location ?? ..I think Lion's mane cant grow above 30°C@@torontotom3168
Nice and simple explanation.
Thanks and God Bless🙏 you🌹
What tinctures are you making with the mushrooms? Can you make a video about it?
So when you completely remove the mushrooms on top of the jar will it still continue to grow up?
Could you get a second flush from the jars?
Could you guide us on how to make tinctures out of these please? Thanks again for the fantastic video!
Pour boiling water over lions mane in jar. Add whole cloves. Cover and store 3-5 days. Strain and refrigerate water. Place lm back in jar with 80 proof organic vodka for 4+ weeks until needed.

If I don't have a pressure cooker - is there an alternative for me?
Epic camera work!
Can you pop out the cakes and mix them in substrate? Just wondering if that would get you more fruits.
definitely, this was just meant to outline the simplest method.
Nice. Thanks for the info. You mentioned you’ll make tinctures with the first lion’s mane. How do you do that?
Yes, I am creating a video on this now.
@@ezmushroom can't wait
Bonjour
Après fermeture des bocaux qu'injectez vous dsan les bocaux avant la stérilisation.merci
Do you think it would be possible to grow lion's mane in a big clear plastic bin
Can i use an instapot pressure cooker?
Yes just make sure you leave it for the appropriate time or maybe a little longer
When you tip the jar lid upside down, is that rust that I see? If it is, that can be pretty dangerous if it gets into the mushroom, and this is something that you're going to eat! I just noticed that when you tip the lids upside down.
Just what I was looking for, Thanks. I'll go check out the website now
thanks for the informative, as well as entertaining video..... "train spotting" you're a funny guy
3:20 haha a spoon and syringe 🤣
Btw good vid another title could be 'growing lions mane pf tek way
Brings back memories of growing cubies 😜
I dont got a pr cooker so i think im gonna order a pre-made sterile growbag filled with grain and with an injection port + a syringe of liquid culture , and innoculate that and wait. Probably more pricy but itl save me alot of time and effort and bigger yields. And i think il fruit it in a good old shotgun terrarium , what do you think?
I Love trainspotting!
Now I understand why it sells for ~$20 /lb
How large of a pressure cooker should I get.. I’ve been wanting one for a while anyway
Did you get a second and third flush after the first harvest
Second one yes. Just fill the jar up with water,leave overnight then tip the water out. If the mycelium fluffs back up after a couple of days it should fruit again.
Thanks for the video. Is there a way to grow lion man with grains?
Yes, i can do a full video on this sometime. I would grow out a grain jar until 100% colonized then place a verm casing layer (sterilized) along the top of the grain (to avoid conatms). Then just spray the verm once a day.
You can also pack straight wood substrate in the Jar and inject directly into the wood. I have done this and LM loves it .
Would this work if using hardwood pellets and lions mane grain spawn?
Yes, i have a video I'm making at the moment on how to do this but with oysters. Just waiting for the jars to fully colonize now.
Get yourself the largest jars possible (I use 1 Litre). Leave a gap in the top, sterilize then add grain into the gap.
I wanted to ask is this all you can get out of these mushrooms or will it continue to grow? And where did the spores go ?
I usually fill the Jar up with water and let the substrate soak for 12 hours. If the substrate becomes fluffy again within 48-72 hours i fruit them again, otherwise i throw them out.
Nice! Have you done the tincture yet?

I got some LM LC and it only seemed to work on one of the 5 or so jars I used it on, I used that jar for G2G which seems to be working though It's a bit annoying.
so you dint need hardwood substrate for this ? I would really like to try this method
Hi sir have you tried this lions mane pf tek with sawdust in jars? ..
replace BRF with hardwood fuel pellets
Thanks for sharing this! Do you tighten the jars before putting in the pressure cooker or find they are hard to open? I’ve got my jars ready and they’re not mason jars either and wondering if there’s a chance they’re going to be hard to reopen. Thanks

EzMushroom thanks so much for your reply. Definitely makes sense now with the hole in the lid and I’ve got that done also. Thanks I really appreciate it
Bang on that mate so simpler but geneuas
Where did you purchase your mushroom injection
Whaou your jars looks more than 400ml! I have T82 720ml jars and i think your's are bigger!
at 4:49 you inject something before pressure cooking. What is that?
Im checking the needle reaches the substrate nothing is injected.
Why the foil to cover the lids?
Because it stops excess moisture seeping through the micropore tape which can cause bacteria issues.
@@ezmushroom Ah, ok, that makes sense. I've seen multiple videos with the foil, but haven't heard anyone saying what the purpose of the foil was. Thanks for the super fast response!
This is RipperJack from season 2 of Tiger King FYI. New sub here
Can you use perlite instead of vermiculite? Unavailable in all stores near me
No, they're different, skip the verm if you can't find
Lion mane liquid extract in what manner
The hot needle is not ideal for the mycelium
You’re the 🐐
CAn anyone in the UK recommend which pressure cooker to get?
Chers
You can get a smaller tower pressure cooker which should work around 7L.
Alternatively get a presto imported from america on ebay, thats what i have done.
thanks

I think Tyvek envelopes should work in place of micropore tape

three years ago, when i made this video I also thought that was pure Myc but now I don't think it is.
These seem to grow inside the jar. What's the difference with the article picture that has big balls ballooning out of the lid?
For that I just popped a hole about the size a hole punch makes in the lid before hand. This seemed to yield more mycelium (with the active ingredients) than the small pom poms.
Although the pom poms are more aesthetic.
@@ezmushroom so just creating a hole in the lid made the fruit cross the 2 inch gap to fruit out the top? Did you tape up the hole?
@@snottlebocket Yes, in this video the mycelium also bridges the two inch gap, same will happen if your fruiting out the holes.
Just put 2 layers of micropore tape over the hole. Eventually the mycelium will erupt out the hole, then just remove the tape and wait.
This is the simplest way. How do these things grow in nature
Will they grow on popcorn
I have a jar of popcorn full of mycelium at the moment, planning to g2g and grain to sawdust a few jars. It seems to like the popcorn fine so far.
What size jars did you use?
I used recycled 400ml Olive jars.
