Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
Bought a medium size bag to see how it goes. The guy selling them says it’s still a bit cold to grow them outside down south - frost is the main issue and they grow very slowly in the cold.
So we’ll try this bag inside and see how it goes. I’m going to have a go at growing spores after we’ve done a third harvest off this bag. If I can get some going I’ll inoculate some wood shavings. Otherwise I can buy some spores off this guy and try that.
It sounds very much like a trial and error thing until you get just the right conditions and ensure you are fastidious with cleanliness when growing spores.
I really want to try this again, but, I know it’s probably just cheaper to buy mushrooms.
Most small scale growing of food is cheaper to just buy, but that’s not as fun 🙂
