My husband, my 4 yr old and I will be homesteading soon and I was thinking about growing mushrooms cause I love them. Now I know I'll be able to do it.
@miliniumjava Thank you, that was a very kind thing to say. I am glad you enjoy them and I hope you find encouragement, idea's, and learn from my failures. I have many more lined up, and I can't wait to do a follow video on shrooming. Thanks, Jason
@Corehoofify Im the same way! some websites are full of problems.Im thinking you can make yourown from portabello caps but, i havent found anything on youtube. I have made spore art out of them ( i wonder if thats the same thing?) oh well i hope he answers you and me back.
Hi from Manitoba. How long do you wait for the mushrooms to grow? And how many mushrooms can you get from those logs. One more question Do they keep growing every year??? planning to retire soon and move out of the city and start homesteading myself.
@MobyDave1583 Well just one season and you will start seeing the rewards of your work. I have read reports that people have, under reasonable conditions have harvested pounds of mushrooms from one log twice a year for 8 ears.Dave the rewards of homesteading is unbelievable. I never thought I could do so much for my family and self living off the land. Be wise and read, I was taught some as a farm boy, but have captured more from reading.
@d3wdman Those seasoned logs were just inoculated last spring with the spores. Like any plant it tales time for the fungi to grow through the log. A few were harvested, but now they are news coming out more and more as the weather warms up and temps hold in the 50s-60s. I will post a report later this spring/summer to inform you of the amounts produced.
your videos are fantastic! Keep 'em coming, I'm enjoying learning new things and quiring new skills! KUDDOS

I have no clue where to go to get spores like you did, I find it hard to trust some websites, do you know where you got yours?

When women melt the wax, I have noticed we generally do it on the stove; men use a blow torch. :P
