How much is the inoculated mycelium bags he sells vs the 3/5lbs yield? How does he sterilise his grain? 👋 thanks John
@Freedom Family Meh... I'm asking here.
No answer to your question from 9 months ago is a pure sign a click bait video
If you want to increase your yield, wear plaid :)
Pure science
Or wear your birthday suit
(Goes to store and buys a full wardrobe of plaid)
@@Enochulate88i went shower direct to clothes closet epoxy marine on plywood glove box. Potato dextrose agar to wheat.
So true
I loved this video. Best wishes to you in Puerto Rico and to Justin and his wife at Longview Mushrooms. I appreciated when Justin said, “you eat a piece of the earth and it becomes you”. That is spiritual as he also said. Thank you for sharing this wonderful video. ❤❤❤
Without meaning to be confrontational, but take a moment to look into the mushroom growers. This guy, who seems great btw, is very much a prime example. Almost every supplier/grower is very open and willing, even eager, to help others grow also. Mushroom growing is the least competitive and contentious of all interests I have, of which gardening is one. There is much more anger and discontent in gardening groups than you find in mushroom growers.
I'm so glad somebody else pointed this out. The video includes misinformation with regard to the culture of mushroom growers. The video tries to promote an idea of getting in at the bottom floor of some industry upsetting process, but that's not true at all. All the information shared in his video is shared in many other videos--which is great!
agreed, the community is excellent and information is freely given lol, idk why he is saying thats its all this big hush hush
They're just really fun guys

This is great buddy! We met at my booth at the farmer's market (Mohave Mushrooms). I am still doing my thing out here, but moved to growing to make supplements !
I am so impressed. The hygiene, the science behind it. The equipment. The layout. The process. These people are going places!
No gloves handling mushrooms 😮
Lol well the science of selling or making something is beautiful people don’t value any more effort or hard work because of big industry give us a lot of a lot but it was not made with love 👌✌️🥲👻
@@dribblingdrooler3616 ❤😶
😮.
I also dont think the humidity fog is that sterile. Just doesnt sit right with me.
You are The Best! I have been a subscriber for years. Best video yet! I will be contacting this man and growing my own shrooms! Thanks!!!
been a GYG viewer for almost a decade, culinary mushrooms are great and nutritious for sure. What I really want to hear is your experience is psilocybin mushrooms John! I recently got into microdosing using tmt pure mushroom capsules, 250mg of pure magic mushrooms each every other day. My anxiety and my depression literally vanished after a few months of usage
Same process buddy
Justin IS the new mushroom Industry! I'm very adamant on wanting to taste 'outside' when I eat mushrooms so I was never a fan of indoor farms; this interview definitely inspires me to reconsider though. Much love to you both :-)
Outstanding video and interview. It really shows how anyone with dedication and effort can make a successful business. Very impressive!
Love this guys channel he is always finding great information
First time ever watching this guy and i dont know why, but i like him. I like how excited he is.. thats how i am everyday growing my magic mushrooms.
Thanks so much John and Justin! - Terrific interview. Justin, your hearts in the right place. Many blessings and God keep you safe when the big quakes come to the West Coast.
It's super easy to buy the bags like this here in Thailand everywhere. Makes it easy for anyone to grow and sell mushrooms
Absolutely inspiring video thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for sharing we always learn from you. We trying to go from hobby to a micro mushroom farm
As far as growing green goes, this has to be up there with one of the most energy efficient, food production systems I’ve ever seen!
Very nice facility. Fascinating tour. Congratulations on the booming industry and during the "pandemic" years. Most impressive.
Great video! Very informative and inspiring! Can’t wait to grow some!
FYI, you could also just use the kits as starters for different strains and then create a library of spore prints. Some strains will even keep going for a really long time without contamination if you carefully use techniques like grain to grain and spawning to substrate. Syringes with distilled water are very easy to make and agar isn't too difficult. Some strains can thrive outdoors too. Choir is your best friend, it fends off potential contamination from most common causes and it sets a solid foundation for mycelium to colonize. I've used it for a whole chamber once and it worked great. If you don't want to go that far you can simply put a layer of it on top of your substrate.
Do you mean coco coir? How does it reduce contamination? Thanks
@@YarrHarr11 Yes, I'm not sure of exactly how it does it but you can think of it like a very effective natural filter to contamination. It's a natural property of the coconut fibers that makes it very difficult for fungus and bacteria to take root. Not all brands are equal though. You'll want to source one that is comprised of 100% coconut fiber. If you get a cheap brand with filler then you'll end up with cotton and sawdust and other junk mixed in which can catalyze mold growth. You can pasteurize it for an extra level of security, I usually just put coir in a 5 gallon bucket and then introduce boiling water and let it sit overnight. It's hard to nail the correct amount of water on a first try but if you overdo it you can always ring out the fibers before using them. At any rate I've been growing mushrooms for 7 years now and I have not seen contamination since I started using coco coir 2 years ago. It's one of those rare things that feels like it's too good to be true but it actually is both that good and true.
I just wanna say thank you, you have been so dedicated to this channel for so long
This is the best educational video on growing mushrooms/starting a mushroom farming business, that I've watched on RUclips.
Hope to get a grow bag soon!
your still around! this guy taught me how to make kombucha back when that video was a day old. wow. right on!
great video, lots of information, greetings from Melbourne Australia
Wow. I live in Kentucky and we have a ton of varieties that grow naturally. NOT sure what is edible. Trying to educated on those. Love this video!
There is an app that will tell you what a plant if. simply by the pictures you take.
This should help get you started but please learn as much as you can BEFORE trying anything: ruclips.net/video/6PNq6paMBXU/видео.html
Loved the video & mushroom farm idea! Beat of luck to Justin!!
This video is truly life changing. Anyone in SC
Thanks for the video
I was able to quit illicit drugs for years all thanks to Psychedelics, really happy to see this kind of awareness to the public
Please where can i get it, really difficult t figure out here?

I've been on mushrooms trip over 3 years, and I must say it was really amazing, no more depression and anxiety.

Always great to see your face and hear your voice, John. :-)
Really good content
God bless you guys
Protect this man at all costs
Great video!
Great video. I'd like to grow in Florida. Do you offer virtual classes?
As a cultivator myself it's great 2 see a home started company beat the odds and grow. No pun intended
Ps nice to see the good old All American PCs beautiful experiment
This guy is the Steve Irwin of plants and fungi... Love his enthusiasm.
I'd appreciate your comment

Look on RUclips... There are many farmers showing the entire process including taking wild specimens and cultivation indoors. Just FYI I've been growing mushrooms at home for over a year. Fun but not for me to be a full time growers. My neighbors and family get my extras... Also, you can grow mushrooms like Wine cap that do well outside. Have a great day.
Love growing mushrooms, both magic and gourmet :))
Wow wasn't expecting this
Thanks for this!
What is the website to purchase the sterilized grain bags, coco/manure-media bags ?
Great video
Hopefully they restock their kits sometime. They've been out for a while.
"supposedly" if you dry mushroms in the sun it increases the vitamin D content 50X, and it's a great way to store the mushrooms that can later be hydrated, or ground into a powder with a coffee grinder.
Great Tour 😀🇦🇺
John your the inspiration starter, you are a fisher of man.
Quo Vadis fan?
Do they use Glyphosate Free Soy and Oats ? I would buy them if they test for it since soy and oats are typically sprayed to dry out the grain in the field.
When he said the spiritual value of food 🙌 that was beautiful 😍
Very good guys. Thanks…
great vid!
I would really like to get one of these tents and grow my own vegetables and shrooms.
Awesome guys!!🥳👏
I've never been more motivated to grow shrooms than after this !
I really want to do this! Where do I start?
I love mushrooms SOOO MUCH!! It's my favorite non cruelty and healthy "meat"
Don't murder the plants & herbs & animals are AWESOME but not people. But then you knew this.
Great thing with shrooms is you don't have to clear fields as for plants & kill all the lil creatures for vegan food.
When will your grow kits be on sale on your website? I’m interested in buying
@Michael_556.STOP.

I missed the details of sterilizing the bags. Will the container be filled up with boiling water? The bags would probably melt away. Could you give more details, please?
Super cool! But can’t say this strategy of selling blocks for fruiting is new. Also would argue that mushroom growers are quite open about their businesses
Yes! I love this! 100!!
Best to put in the extra variables, create your own spawn/bags, and then 10-20x+ while being able to do what they are doing as well. I'm not saying that this is not a great way to get started. But always strive to cut out a service like this ASAP and do it all yourself.
100%. Them selling bags to people for them to start kinda defeats the thing necessary to do their own business....getting the mushrooms to cultivate the bag. You need the knowledge to create the spawn, get a recipe for substrate, get a process to sterilize, cleaning, inoculating, etc. Them selling someone a block is basically doing 95% of the work and trying to skip to the finish.
Awsome...I Love Mushrooms...☆☆*
John, would you be interested in interviewing Sunset City Mushrooms? My buddy grows medicinal mushrooms (the magic kind), theyve been in operation for over a year now and given the promising scientific positives of this medicine, I predict it will be fully legalized for therapy soon enough.
i love you john youre the best dude

First time I have seen blue mushrooms
I am a peasant when it comes to food. I like the simple button mushrooms. Some of it is because my teeth, (that I have left) cannot chew as well as when I was younger. But I also like the taste of brown button mushrooms.

John i love what you do im a big fan but brotha you gotta go reorganize your playlists!
How do you not have a million plus viewers.
It is absolutely beautiful how people talk so many things about psychedelic and magic mushrooms too..
Everyone focused on how magic mushrooms can change and also save lives.. I haven't try it but I deep down I really what to try it.. just looking for a reliable source..

I would like a grow kit.

yes
Basically, a good tour of a mushroom facility, basically. I could basically start a drinking game, basically, requiring a sip for every time John says 'basically'.
Just a quick question what happens to all the Spent growing material after the mushrooms have all grown out?
Do they sell it at Market as Mushroom Compost?😊
He offers them on Saturday mornings for people to pick up for growing out more flushes, add to compost or anything else they can think of.
he donates or gives it away and has people lined up waiting for it
@@GreenZebraGardening thank you, was just wondering 😀🇦🇺
@@growingyourgreens thank you John😀🇦🇺

The hardest part about growing to sell mushrooms besides the sterilization process, is finding buyers. Once you harvest, you have limited time before they're less perfect appearance-wise to sell fresh.
Wow! You basically, can grow, basically, edible mushrooms basically in a home environment, basically.
🤣 i basically heard that too
Why don't you grow shiitake?
how big are those tents?
They're on telegram🔑 and also on twitter✅.
Those special blue mushrooms are blue oyster. Not really special, but very pretty.
30 days using wood and soybean pellets is very impressive. The pellets get so hot from the extrusion process they are practically already sterile. I'm less impressed with pressure cooker sterilization. I ran numerous batches that went to 25 psi for a 1/2 hour and afterward little tiny bugs would break out of the straw I was using as media. When I boiled the straw for an hour there were no bugs. Obviously the pressure cooker was somehow inadequate.
Half an hour is not long enough. Any research will show you lower psi at a longer time limit will produce a much better outcome. Higher temps at a shorter time frame will not work. 15-17psi for 90 minutes is the go-to.
@@SherriShelleyMarshal hey, thanks! Could you suggest some research papers about this?
They should also have a redundant genetic bank at another location unknown to anyone but those who need to know
This is super great! Um, John, do you want me to iron your shirt? Oh, well, everybody loves you anyway ;)

That's a very gentle way to put it...
