How To Grow Oyster Mushrooms From Used Coffee Grounds - Part 3: Final Steps And Harvest
This is the 3rd and final video showing how to grow mushrooms from store bought mushrooms. Once you try it you will be hooked! There's nothing like fresh mushrooms.
If you want to try a kit before doing all this on your own then I suggest this one on Amazon: amzn.to/2XJKYlj
I tried it and worked great and also lower cost than the others.

I love watching folks that have this much ambition for doing something themselves. That was not a quick or simple procedure but you stuck to it and I think that's awesome. Great videos.

They say mushrooms first grew when the Earth was a molten ball of rubbing alcohol, straw, coffee grounds & Menards buckets.
😜
That was a lot of work but very satisfying knowing you did that all on your own...no costly kits. I admire your tenacity! To those leaving comments about it being cheaper to purchase them at the store....NO it isnt, not over the long haul. In addition there is the feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment you can ONLY get by doing it yourself and persevering like this man did. Bravo to you sir!! Enjoy your bountiful crops. Something to be proud of. Others may not understand why you did all this hard work instead of purchasing them at the market.....but those people will probably never know the feelings that come when you have accomplished a task such as this. Enjoy!! I am grateful you posted this series of videos. Thank you. (Nov -2019)
Exactly. Thank you so much.
I will try this method...
Thank you very much for this video......happy seasons greetings...
He made these videos way too long & boring. I think that's what we disliked the most.
This was easily the coolest at home DIY thing I have ever seen on youtube. Thanks for sharing, and thank you so much for putting in the effort. It really really shows. GREAT job.
Thanks Luke. I'm liking your new Vixia vids. That camera rocks.
Just good to know how it's done...thanks so much!
I appreciated the videos, they are encouraging. Especially the part where you showed us the contamination and the adjustments you made to the process. An honest approach and a display of the learning curve.
Thank you for taking the trouble to shoot this video, I enjoyed it.
That four ninety nine a pound startin' to look pretty good right about now.
Asian Markets...cheaper...
Yea...so not worth it
OMG. Thank god there are farmers. I would have collapsed at the green mold stage. Thank you dear man for all your hard work.
You proved one thing, $5/lb at the grocery store is cheap!
Especially when you figure in the cost of buying grow lights and a climate controlled humidifier and the electricity to run it 24 hours a day for weeks on end...
Jennifer ... But in kooky places like Washington state, Oregon and California you can turn a great profit selling MAGIC mushrooms. That's what he's getting at. Liberals start giving their kids these drugs before they start pre-school. Big profit margin...
But growing it yourself is way more fun
Exactly what I was thinking...LOL
@@tomjones239 So if "liberals" are using Mushrooms...that would mean the others are using Meth...lol Maybe making some in your mobile home Tom?? LOL
Nice to know, if we didn't; have mushroom 's in the store, and wanted to grow some. I get you are enjoying this process. Good job. Very creative!
Thanks for such a great series Sir.. Hope to see some clips on the different types your playing with soon.. I'm thinking shitaki would be best for us to try here :)
Cheers sir :)
You probably don't have the sharpest knife, but indeed have a very informative step-by-step instructions, great job dude, love it !
I’ve an old friend who is a commercial grower. You’ve covered all the bases for sure.
A length of pvc pipe ventilated with a 1” hole saw works good as a replacement for the plastic bag. Good job and Thanks
Thank you so much for the comment. I just want it to work for everybody too.
Thank you for sharing your videos, I have been working a this for about 3 months my first two attempts "colonizing used coffee grounds" failed but my third is just about ready for straw. First try I did not get very far "1/3ed" till green mold appeared, 2nd try I was over half the jar and it appeared. Using quart size jars. This time "pint jar" its just about ready to come out, no mold!
This is a very well done series. I do wonder if after all our sanitizing, that you aren't just causing contamination with the sleeves on your sweatshirt. I wold suggest that you go with bare arms because you are putting your sleeved arms inside the plastic bags. Don't listen to the dopes who say it is too much work. You are learning, and they aren't.
Can I report this as a wholesome and helpful?
I truly loved this series! My daughter and I bought it-bag ready and weren't able to grow them half as well!! So I appreciate all your attention to detail including the alcohol.TY
All amazing things come from tremendous effort. That is lost on a lot of people. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
You definitely put some heart into this video , i appreciate it. definitely a cool project to play with ..
Very informative and fascinating to watch - but I think I will just go to the supermarket and buy mine! However, I shall not complain again about the price of the fancy mushrooms now i know what trouble it takes to grow them properly.
I think they are $6.99lb now.
I appreciate your dedication and education. I will shop at the store, but the younger crowd will learn a new skill that takes patience and love and can be applied in so many things. Craftsmen, artists, poets, master gardeners,musicians, etc are much needed and respected!
Wow, that was the most amazing thing i have ever seen and definitely trying this!
Thank you for taking your time and posting these videos up, very easy to follow and perfect instructions!
Thank you! This entire series was really informative.
This was a very well produced and interesting video, I loved it *****! Thank you for doing this series as well. I'm not ready to get started with mushroom farming....yet but I want to give it a go in the future. Thanks again.
Thanks Wayne. I hope to show more in about a week. I had lots more going when I picked these. Once you start producing lots of mycelium you can just keep spreading it for more.
Reminds of the time I got wired up on growing "compost tea" for my plants........thought it would revolutionize my lawn. It did not, but I had a great time exploring something I had never tried, so good for you.!
This is so cool! For only $6 of store bought mushrooms, $300 worth of materials and equipment, 3 hours of work, and a month of waiting, you get $6 dollars of mushrooms!
Awesome Dude! Watched all episodes and think you're quite the gourmand (and fungus gardener)! I think it's a great hobby and so satisfying to devote time to what I'm sure are shrooms far tastier than what's available at the store. Thanks for this! ;)
Thanks. It's really pretty easy and not as much work as it looks like.
Wow, that seemed like a tremendous amount of work for the amount of mushrooms produced! There must be a better way.
There is a better way. They keep going. But I agree that work never is fun unless you stare at a phone.
I am going to get my starter mushrooms today!
bud you really did make us stare at a screen for a while. but thanks for the effort its useful
So you do this once, and then you just have to harvest.
You don't do the bags again?
I was just showing how to start from nothing. Once its going there is not much effort like in the later videos.
Way to go! I gave a lecture like this one time. I'm glad you had more time because efforts build!
I too am thinking growing oyster mushrooms is more responsibility than I can handle, but I am IN AWE of the gentleman who not only put together very informative videos but mastered a VERY complex process. You ROCK! Thanks for cheering a sad boomer.
1. Why not sterilize straw inside oven (dry process)? Then add boiled water for moisture as much as needed.
2. Why not mix mycelium (from jars) with wet straw in big pot before stuffing plastic bag with this mix?
Mushroom walks into a bar. Bartender yells hey we dont allow mold in here.
Mushroom says hey come on bro im a fun guy!
Mushrooms are fungi not molds
😆
@@jeffpierce147 Whooosh
While this 3 part video on growing a cupful of mushroom was running, I went to the supermarket, bought 500 grams of mushroom for $4.99, came home and cooked mushroom risotto, ate dinner, washed up and then finished watching this video.
I grow most of my own fresh produce in my garden but somethings are just not viable when you consider the time and equipment and cost necessary to grow a handful of mushroom.
You're some kind of mushroom fanatic! Such a lot of dedication, time and energy!
I really like your videos!!! They have taught me a lot about oyster mushroom cultivation!! I have a few tips that might help you out in our adventure! From my personal experiences, it is easier to keep a sterile environment if you just add all of your substrate in the jars all at one time, this prevents having to open the jars multiple times to layer them. Every time the jar is opened, it leaves a chance for mold to get in. Another thing I have found to be helpful in my adventures is using a "wide mouth canning jars" this allows the clump of mycelium to slide out in a single chunk rather than having to scrape it out with a spoon. Last but not least, roll those sleeves up!!! Any form of cloth can trap mold spores, I personally do the inoculation/spawning process shirtless right after I take a shower, and this seems to give me the most sterile results. If you want to take it a step further, you can make yourself an "inoculation hood" by taking a clear plastic tote and flipping it upside down, cutting two hand holes in, and then gluing a pair of rubber gloves in the hand holes so you can access the inside of the box from the outside without any chance of mold coming in. I hope you enjoy these tips, I truly enjoyed the knowledge I have acquired from your videos, thank you!
Great tips.
Definitely interesting. I appreciate your sharing. Personally I cannot stand mushrooms of any sort but I do find the process and science intriguing. Might even do this one day just to say I did.
We are all mushrooms, haha. Thank you so much for watching and there is no failure with trying.
I was a couple of kids for just a little more trouble. You are dedicated to the idea for sure. More power to you.
What an amazing process! Congrats Slee! I look forward to more videos like this! I give this video a green thumbs up!
You can buy pre-chopped straw in a bag at the feed store, Standlee 40# bag would last a long time (I don't work for them) it would save you that step.
I haven't been to the feed store for years but I'll check it out. I'm testing growing on hemp that I got from Walmart in the pet bedding section.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong here. I thought mushrooms have no chlorophyll thus no photosynthesis takes place thus light source is not needed. They would grow just as well in a dark basement under otherwise similar conditions. Why waste energy supplying light for?
Light could be a source of heat? Though depends on what type of lights used in the video.
Several mushroom species also make vitamin D, and light is required for that. Oyster mushrooms that get natural light are an excellent source of Vit D.
@@chel-lalasveganmaniaThat I didn't know. Thank you for your response.
I am so inspired. This video was so interesting. Thank goodness for souls like you.....Keep up the good work! I am perplexed with people who state they are depressed or bored there is so much to learn in the world.
I was inspired too...inspired to go to the store, buy some mushrooms, eat them, and go to the store again the next time was in the mood for mushrooms.
This was an excellent series. What an interesting process. I just might try it someday. Thanks for the information. Very valuable.
We are fortunate enough to live in an area where these mushrooms abound. Not many folks around here will pick and eat them though, because we live in a morel-rich area as well, and they're "not sure" about the oysters. Obviously, growing these wouldn't be something I'd want to consider, but watching these videos certainly intrigued me, if for no other reason it helps me understand how marvelous Mother Nature can be to make all the conditions perfect for this mushroom's survival. For that very reason I was fascinated by the videos and thanks to SleestaksRule for posting them.
Thanks for the great video. BTW next time use a large cooler for the pasteurization as it is insulated it will stay hotter for longer.
Thank you. I did mention that I use a large old Coleman cooler these days but comments get buried and really appreciate yours!
I agree it seems like a lot of effort but important information thank you! As one does this more I think the process would get streamlined. It does look like fun!
I thouht this might be something we could do at home but after watching your method I ruled that out. I will keep on buying my mushrooms grown by commercial firms. We have a local company who use natural caves that I enjoy patronizing. You did give me a better appreciation of the work that goes into their indeavors so thanks for that at least.
Wouldn't it be possible to sterilize the straw the same way I preserve flour--spread some of it out on a baking tray and slip it into an oven set at 170 degrees? I put a pan of flour in for 20 minutes at that temperature and it destroys any weevil larva--seems it would be easier than toting heavy buckets of water.
I never did that but would probably work. I have an old BIG Colman cooler that I use now with the hot water. Thank you for your input - Ted
Smart
Mushroom logs are much easier! We make our own here at Dancing Rabbit Eco Village. You can make several logs in one afternoon and they give out heeps of mushrooms for up to 8 years....even without any maintenance. I have around 15 logs now, having added 8 new logs this years. The first few years each log is supposed to be able to produce about 3 x the amount you just showed, several times in a season. You should totally try it. I have mostly Shitacci mushrooms ( that I was given that are pretty old), but now also will have Lion's Main and Oyster mushrooms. This method actually may be great for creating your own mix to inoculated new logs with. It also give some options on how to grow mushrooms indoors in the Winter. That is really the only $ investment in making your own mushroom logs. There is plenty of videos on just how to do this, I bet. There are specific kinds of wood used and specific hole distances to drill for different types of mushrooms and places that sell the inoculation mixes online. It also give some options on how to grow mushrooms indoors in the Winter. How many flushes do you get out of one bag? Some people here have brought their logs indoors to allow the mushrooms to mature, when they have gotten a really late flush starting right before the first frost. But they like to flush right after a decent rain followed by some real warm days, so I' not sure how that could be reproduced indoors. Maybe another experiment for you to try? , *Also, no sanitizing of anything necessary!
I did a video on that as a trial from some plugs somebody sent me. It was a failure so far but I still have the log in the woods hoping and waiting. That little bit I did I kept going for over a year adding the spent bag to outdoor straw. So I started with a little from the store and ended up with many lbs. I'm not sure if I added photos of that to my site.
Thanks for that info. I am spending more time reading comments on these 3 vids than watching them.
Yes, just answering them now from the past 12 hours. Lots of repeat questions and mean comments, lol. It's all good.
WOW. What a fun, lovely project/hobby. This is how people start businesses. Thanks.
You did a great job! I'm sorta jealous because you get super fresh shrooms to cook with. So fun, thank you for sharing.
It's amazing that mushrooms manage to grow wild
I think wild oyster mushrooms must be extinct
Now I'm content no more desires to grow mushrooms anymore
After video 1 I thought "yeah, I'm going to give that a try" - by the middle of #3.....not so much
The few times a year I want to make a mushroom dish with this type of mushroom I will just buy them. I have neither the patience to tend and purchase all this equipment or time to devote to cleaning and prep and I do not drink coffee so I would be buying coffee at a price of much More then the pound of mushrooms. This mushroom adventure is not for me. Power to those who try this though. hope you have good success, and do not have to start over from scratch, due to a stray bad mold spore.
@@rickrenacci1717 Thanx for the link, but it is not functioning at the moment :( ... Would have been rather interesting though ... Would try to cultivate my mushrooms as well but this way seems to be a "bit" time-expensive for me ;) ...
@@Automedon2 Alot of vids are way overkill with tons of extra steps. Just sanitize well , steam ur substrate in a cooking pot and inject spore or myceliium n thts it
LoL!!!
Congratulations!!! You are one persistant guy......When I saw the greenhouse....I almost said "NO WAY" that is too much....AND then WOW!!! SUCCESS! Thanks for sharing!
i might just grow own mushrooms thjis month so thank you for a great how-to video man. respect!
Interesting video. My big question is do you have a head? Thanks for posting.
Probably experimenting with other mushroom varieties.
I think my beer brewing kettle on the stove or outside burner would be the way to go. Boiling pot after pot of water seems quite inefficient.
Valerie Cudnik yeah, I changed things up since this video. Thanks for watching.
I'd go with an old turkey fryer to sterilize the straw - big capacity and constant heat.
Yes, rather than constantly adding water to keep up the temp, it seems reasonable to add the straw to already boiling water. Smaller batches maybe but perhaps more accurate boiling temps?
I have been growing shrooms for 30 years you have a great method for beginners and oysters are a great starter shroom they make a strong colony and bag should give 3 or 4 flushes before drying out or loseing out to mold
Now I realized that picking wild mushrooms are easier. Thanks sir.
He wiped everything down, then stuck the sleeve of his jacket into the bag. ?
I agree, quite daring. He's lucky it worked.
I know I’m thinking wtf?
I like your sleeve in the bag...
Thanks!
That sleeve was exposed to all sorts of outside contamination.
Yes! That was an Irony!
This was so cool to see. Thank you for doing these videos!
Great video. Thanks and appreciated for uploading all 3 parts. I will try your technique. I like your bold attitude of moving forward. It is all based on culture. Like yogurt , kombucha and here mushroom. I do yogurt all the time and kombucha too. I will follow very closely your advise.Will update you after sometime. I will try with sawdust and coffee using ziplog bag. Let's see what happened. Lot of people are used to drive thru fast food can't handle challenge of cooking. So don't take it seriously and keep on posting your experiments. Your pitfalls in the experiments are lesson to be learned for us. Keep it up. SUBSCRIBED.
when i was in college we had a mushroom growing out of the floor in the bathroom. thought this would be way easier
Same here.
Roommate: "Wonder if we could trip off it?"
@@farginicehole513 You could probably slip on it.
The cost of electricity for the humidifier and lighting plus the labour cost would be a lot more than what you have to pay for the mushrooms in the market.
@CYN Chan - Shhhhhhh... LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No one is making You do it. Come up with a simpler way.
The learning experience was so terrible. OMG, who would ever want to grow something, ewww. and you have to do work too... like, no way. Im out of here.
I got so excited to watch it, thinking: Oh, man! I would love to grow my own mushrooms, because I love mushrooms!", but as I kept watching my excitement wilted... I live in 20 sq m studio with no garage or shed available... No mushrooms for me then. But it was interesting to watch anyway! :D Greetings from Brighton, UK!
you my friend are a godsend, i always wanted to grow these, but now.. BUT NOW HS thats ALOT of work. my hats off to u my friend!
Wow, thanks for the uploads. It amazes me though that the damn things grow on a cow patty out in the field and indoors you have to be so careful, lol.
That's my point as well
That’s because he is full Shit
Lot of mold. Yeck!
Hell you can grow them in a 5 gallon construction poop bucket!
@@Panda74gofaster hes on a magic mushroom trip.
I've heard so many wonderful things about magic mushrooms but I can't easily get some, Is there any realiable source I can purchase from??
I'm so interested in the experience but am terrified of having a bad trip
( dream.spores)
Got psych's*
This whole thing is pretty new to me, can I try 3grams?
@lioness Mindset Yeah, he's got magic mushrooms, LSD, dmt etc
@@Marksonfixedmatches alright, I'll reach out to him immediately to get some
That is amazing. Thanks for sharing this wonderful how to!
Congrats with a great success! Thumbs up.
Enjoyed this video series very much. :)
Best wishes for future projects.
Halvor.
I can see you never use the food processor before LOL take the lid off and fill it
or use a funnel
so why not just put the straw in a big pot on the stove
sure you can. pasteurized straw is good, you can do it any way you want. steel drum or can on a fire or pour boiling water onto a bin. whatever works.
If I put the straw in a pressure cooker I can get over 220 degrees that wont hurt anything will it?
I think he's making the point that you must bring it to the point of pasteurization. Getting water just that hot underscores that it's pasteurization he's after, not boiling or cooking.
Thank you now I feel so much better about buying mushrooms!
This has been the best growing video for my kids and there science experiment about how to take one mushroom and make many more for not to much money and items we already have. We're doing king oyster mushrooms and the first one got so big that there's enough to start more and eat with. Thanks from our family to yours.
R.
WONDERFUL! Yes we did the science fair "STEM" and it was a hit.
"Sterilize everything!"
*reaches coat into bag*.
lol he then cleaned the Xacto knife before cutting holes in the bag.
lol yeh I was thinking that too with both the coat & the holes. Pretty sure you're meant to wait for the mycelium to completely colonise before cutting the holes
oh the squeezing all the air out of the bag before cutting the holes entertained me too :)
@@lilaclizard4504 dont mind the stacks of old papers on the rack covered in dust, or the humidifier intside covered in who knows whats.
I suspect that after the mycelia get established and "overtake" the medium, most any contaminant in very minute amounts is unable to take hold. It's just early on that there's more successful competition.
Oh it was funny watching him. He's trying. Loved the using the hands for the grounds and such lol
Grow and harvest your own fresh mushrooms (with coffee grounds and straw! )
I enjoyed the video but it seems like an enormous amount of work, and exspensive. Good for you. You'll never starve to death.
I recon you would fall in love with the laundry basket method, it's ideal for straw!
I know. My buddy Sumi has taken it to level ten, lol. The video is a couple years old so I need to update the recipe to help people out.
Very interesting but what I do wonder about is, when these mushrooms are growing wild, where does Mother Nature get all the 91% alcohol she needed?
After watching this series, I have to wonder, who wipes down the trees all over Illinois with alcohol.
Well if I am ever stranded on s deserted island with some coffee grounds and a bag of oyster mushrooms I just need 30-35 days to eat again after I grow some. Life skills.
Thanks for the video , I'm going to start my small mushroom farm using your methods.
I never thought it was this hard to grow fungus. I've been trying to kill the one in my toenails for years and I've used some nasty stuff Lol.
I bite my toenailia. It only adds flavor if you are lucky enough to sprout the nailia.
I've tried every chemical you can buy in a pharmacy too. The only thing that worked was a deep tray filled with white vinegar and my feet submerged in it for 30 minute, every day before i go to bed. It took a while but it worked
vinigar worked for me too, a spray bottle stored in my shower so I didn't forget & used everytime I had a shower.
The irony is I do tissue culture work now & I've tested vinigar for killing fungus, mould & bacteria & it does bugger all, despite my toenail saying otherwise
TMI dude
If you trying to kill fungus use hydrogen peroxide it'll kill it
Wouldn't it be easier to sterilize the straw in a pressure cooker?
You wouldn't be able to do very much. My wife would kill me too, lol. I've been using the pressure cooker for the jars of grain for the mycelium. If I dumped straw into it I'd be a dead man.
*****
I would get a used cooker from Goodwill or something. You may not be able to put much in, but at least you'd know it was sterile.
***** To my understanding... germs are kill in around 140 degrees. When you put hot water in 160 degrees all germs are kill on contact. Why waste gas to keep the temp for hours? How many times can you kill the same germ? Would this be overkill? If you can use alcohol to kill germs on contact, why can't the hot water kill germs on contact?
simpleMind1689 The 160 degree water is called pasturization and it doesn't kill all the fungi and bacteria just hopefully the competition.Even pressure cooking at 15 psi for 45 minuites can fail to kill all the
contaminates in rye grain (about 3-5 % of spawn jars fail even if never
opened). If the spore load in the grain is high it could be almost
impossible to sterilize. Compost that is usually used for growing mushrooms is not sterile it is just pasturized and selectively depleted in the food that most competitors need. If you try this you'll get a quick education on the vast quantity of contaminates that exist and how difficult it is to try and exclude or kill them all.
If she eats mushrooms and you clean your dirty work afet, I don't see reason not to do so.
Thank you sir, the three videos were awesome. Going to follow the leads. Continue the awesome work.
Love this! I've become obsessed with mushrooms! This is literally perfect for me :)
Why cant you put straw in metal pot and simmer at 170f? What the hell?
It's messy. Maybe a hot plate in the garage but not in the house. Wife would shoot me :)
One wonder how these mushrooms grow in the wild without all this crazy amount of sterilization of everything. YIKES.. too much work for a NATURE TREAT, lol
It's really not much work. I started from a little itty bitty mushroom at the store for a couple dollars. Once it is going beyond my first harvest you will multiply the harvest so fast without cost. I made the video because everyone failed in the past but it is really easier and I went overboard to make sure it would work for first time people. Thanks for watching.
@@SleestaksRule Excellent, Thank You for your answer. I saw part one but never could find part 2. I might rethink this if it's really much more efficient once the party is started 😁. Thank you for this video! Blessings 🙏😇
@@SleestaksRule I don't think you went overboard at all. What you said/ showed us seems logical. Your efforts certainly produced rewards! Thanks to you, I'm eager to attempt to grow some myself. I found a website (fungi.com) that sells the bags already put together. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year!
If you don't sterilize, you get lots of other stuff growing in your medium. That happens in nature, too. Some might be hazardous, but hopefully you know what to pick and what to leave alone...
Actually mushroom from the wild is full of bugs hiding in them.
hi and thanks for this awsome and easy way to cultivate gourmet mushroom. really inspired me to get started too so tomorrow I start collecting my materials! Greets from Jeronimo from Belgium
OMGooodness...now I know why I bought myself a mushroom field guide and spend so much time in the woods...
show us how to obtain and grow peyote
step one- be in Canada where it is not illegal, find an illegal source or be in the desert. Step 2- buy/find seeds or small living plants Step three- grow like any other cactus step 4- wait 6 years for maturity
That’s a lot of work think I’ll just buy them lol
This so far is the only complete step-by-step video about growing mushrooms, thank you for this. although this also made me think of stopping in attempting to grow my own oyster mushrooms during quarantine, ill just stick to the store bought ones (fresh, dried, canned). Damn I love mushrooms.
1.) use nylon stockings for the last phase, since they are recyclable and when they stretch, they provide nice pores.
2.) put a small nylon bag with the straw onto the mycel in your mason jar and have them pop right through the screen on top..
I think I'll just buy my mushrooms fresh from the store. Too much time and work to grow these things.
You can grow a huge lot of oyster mushrooms with hardly any work, here is how: get a bale of straw, put it in deep shadow in your garden, water it for several days, insert the mycelium and wait.
Now, this sounds more like it, Thanx.@@_xO_Ox_
You don't really need the humidifyer you just need to put the bag in a dark place while you mist it constatntly
Growing pot is a whole lot more easier OMG..
Until the smell gives you away and you get a knock at the door. But if you're going to take the risk for a medical condition and are Bible religious. You need signs in your grow area "Not for Sale" and some verses Gen. 1,29 and Psalms 104;14,15.
Genesis 1;29
29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
Psalms 104;14,15
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart.
Meat doesn't mean only food. It also means service as in clothes, medicine and even mild use of that which can intoxicate to lift ones spirits, make the heart glad, but not drunk. The Bible also condemns drunkeness. Indica is strictly medicine not recreational, that is centuries old knowledge. Sativa is like wine. Abuse is excess with anything that intoxicates and there are some intoxicants that can kill one way or another.
It's those that abuse that gives a bad name to many things and causes others to suffer. Acting like a fool stoned out of their mind doesn't help the sick, it only hurts. Relaxing with a glass of wine is fine, Having a couple of beers is ok too. But when you don't stop until you run out or pass out, you may have a problem. Yeah you can only get so high, but people have been taken to the ER because of overdoses. Sativa and Indica crosses have brought in something new, so the "only so high" should not include the crosses or Indica. Remember not every person is the same. What might be safe for one, it may kill another. Honey is sweet and good, but can kill a baby.
I've only posted this to add my 2¢ and my thoughts on it. All risk is yours, not mine. Use wisdom and kindness in all you do. I stumble at times, but my faith in the Lord is my focus.
@@Alwis-Haph-Rytte I love the Psalm verses.
@@Alwis-Haph-Rytte I suppose you believe that Jesus and the apostles walked around drinking wine and smoking pot when they were not high on mushrooms or opium.Maybe it was the hallucinations people had that account for there miraculous stuff.Mushrooms,pot,

Anyone's digestion,as Jesus says it's good for the digestion.Your qoutes come from a Roman myth.Jesus and Hercules are about as believable as Achilles.They dragged in some Greek story elements and distorted Jewish stories too.Yeah, vegetation is meat for everyone.Sure it is.What does your Bible stuff have to do with anything in the video?(It's rhetorical so there's no need to answer).

I didn't agree with you and that makes me delusional.I guess not believing in your big book of lies and excuses for anything but not believing in the Father,son and holy Ghost,makes me delusional.I don't buy into the way too many people say,I have faith in Jesus Christ and I could murder a hundred people today and God would still let me into heaven because I have faith in Jesus Christ.Ya know,He died for our sins so if you accept him as your Lord and savior he will let You into heaven and that's forever even if you kill people,steal and bayonette babies.If you don't have faith in him,you could do no harm and save a 1,000 lives a day but you'll still burn in hell forever, because he can't deal with that.I must be delusional to dislike the fact that Christianity is by far number one for blood on it's hands.I must be delusional for disliking the use of Christians forcing conversations on hundreds of millions of people.I must be delusional if I think that the results of 2,000 years of Christianity have been widespread destruction of life and property and Greed such as the world has never seen.Everyone was doing better before it.But then,I'm delusional.Go drink your wine,eat your hallucination inducing mushrooms and have some pot,as you believe your God said is good.I don't subscribe to your : it's all made for people's benefit viewpoint so I must be delusional.Have a nice delusional new year.
Great set of videos. If I had an award to give, it would be to you as the first person on RUclips who played pleasant background music AND at a barely perceptible level so as not to obscure your vocals & dialogue. I'd keep scouring the thrift stores for a hot plate & a giant cooking pot. If no dice on the latter, try a restaurant supply store, their stuff is usually much more reasonable than regular retail stores. It's okay to sterilize your work area, but I'd also immediately cover your grounds/straw/other medium while you pull out a bit to work with. Happy shrooming!
Thank you, well presented. I have a kit growing now and I am collecting everyone's ideas and coming up with my own way. My kits started blooming after three days and is almost ready now... I will be growing plugs also and trying your method with the plugs that have been inoculated using your method. thanks looking forward to more videos..
When your kit is spent, just break it up and add it to some new straw and it'll keep producing mushrooms in about 20 days. If you can't get straw go to Walmart and get aspen wood chips in the pet isle. They work good but a little slower.
Thank you so much I really wanted to ask you that but didn't want to pester you. I used to use aspen chips for my chickens' nests. I may try coffee an chips in two separate containers.
Hmmm, the amount of electricity used, and the cost thereof, to produce a tiny clump - no bigger than you'd buy in a shop - seems a waste to me. There has to be a more natural way to do this.
But interesting anyway.
+Hazel Lewry LOL... At the end of the day .. with labor and electricity alone his cost is about 5x what I pay at the store..
Agreed
that was just one bag lol I can go much bigger! and not only that... its an awesome hobby.
Depending on the strain you can sell a small amount for a high price example: Truffles.
What's interesting is there is a company doing oyster mushroom kits that solely use coffee grounds from my understanding so it seems like you could skip a bunch of those steps if you did have enough coffee grounds.
Who does all this in mother nature?
Mushroom farmers cheat mother nature and make it so that they get one specific mushroom and not others that they don't want.
wow but you have a lot more time and patience than I do. Enjoyed the video...
Very interesting, thank you for sharing! Very cool science project. It's obviously labor intensive, but shows how it's done on a small scale. Sadly, I am the only one in my family who likes mushrooms!
