Most likely you just came to my channel and did not understand the situation. I do not speak English and I am trying to find an acceptable option: ua-cam.com/video/tF6fnog0quI/v-deo.html

I'll try using this voice: ua-cam.com/video/VlsLx397tjw/v-deo.html

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech i like that version you sent. It sounds less robotic.

Thanks for the response. It is important for me to know the opinion of subscribers.

Thank you for the feedback! I’m planning to share much more useful knowledge and will be releasing videos every Thursday. There's also a lot of useful information on my website veshenka-expert.info/en/oyster-mushroom-cultivation-technology/

This voice is not only much better, but also much more expensive, so it was important for me to know if the audience likes it. Thank you for your feedback.

thanks for support

Thank you for your comment, my daughter asked how the audience perceives her voice. I will pass on your words to her, she will be pleased to know

hi. i plan to make a video on this topic, but i can't say when it will happen. i have an article about pasteurization. veshenka-expert.info/en/mushroom-pasteurization-tunnel/

Thanks for the response!

Thank you, in the next video that I have already recorded, this voice will be even more natural (well, I think so)

Thanks for the comment, it's important for me to know that my videos are helping so that I have inspiration to continue. I still have many ideas and topics for new videos. I publish them every Thursday.

This is the substrate density in the state in which it is packed into bags. The substrate is generally not completely dry during production, as it is moistened before use. Only the raw materials used to make the substrate are dry before they are hydrated.

you are so welcome, it's very nice when growers write such comments, it inspires me to make new videos

I plan to make new videos every Thursday. I have several videos about crop yield, look for them on the channel. And there is also an article on my website, there is a section about increasing crop yield. I will send a link in the next comment.

Thank you for your comment, it is very important for me to know that my videos help people.

Thank you for your feedback. This video is voiced by my daughter. Since English is not her native language, I want to ask - is everything clear?

Yes it's very clear to me. ​@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech

watch this video, I explained everything here ua-cam.com/video/tF6fnog0quI/v-deo.html

listen to my own voice - ua-cam.com/video/tF6fnog0quI/v-deo.htmlsi=F7bj2jkeyfhteccd

Thank you for your comment, it is very important for me to know that my knowledge is in demand.

@OysterMushroom_expert-tech it is highly in demand. I am working on starting a mushroom farm in Morocco. So far, there is only one farm working on a small scale, and with primitive equipment. I am planning on getting financing for large autoclaves and laminar flowhoods to work on Oysters, Lion's Mane, Shiitake, and Reishi. Africa, in general, is lacking in mushroom production. Hopefully, with the knowledge you share, I will be able to lead the sector, at least in Morocco. If my farm even succeeds, I will invite you to visit and consult.

I wish you great success in your endeavors!

"Thank you for your understanding! I'm glad you enjoy my content, and I plan to cover many more topics on oyster mushroom cultivation. If you have any specific questions or topics you're interested in, feel free to let me know!"

Thank you for your feedback. I will try to say more phrases in each video, but I really hope that Olga will be able to voice most of my videos.

Thank you for your feedback. I really appreciate it. I plan to release a video every Thursday and sometimes on Mondays - a video with some information about me or about discounts on my ventilation guide.

You can't get one kilogram of mushrooms from 1 kg of substrate. But you can get even more from the dry component of the substrate. That is, you take a kilogram of agricultural waste, then you wet it, you get 3.5 or 3.8 kilograms of substrate and from them 1 kilogram of mushrooms, or even 1.2-1.3 kg

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech , okay understood this , 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

@@amitbarikeri3 I know that oyster mushrooms grow best on cotton waste, which is similar to cotton wool, and the yield sometimes even reaches 100% of the weight of the substrate itself.

The fact is that the oxygen level remains virtually unchanged in any room and at any CO2 level. It would be more correct to talk about a low level of carbon dioxide in the growing chamber. I have not personally observed or found anywhere in the literature that the mushroom yield decreases if the carbon dioxide level is low. A level of about 1200 ppm is important only at the stage of transition of hyphal knots to primordia, and should be reduced after the beginning of their formation. Some strains are very sensitive to CO2 and grow at a level of no more than 650 ppm.

I'm not using any temperature control systems just we are using semi closed rooms and foggers to maintain humidity So we can't able to adjust co2 we are going according to nature If you permit I will share our setup video Our production capacity is 450-500 kgs per week

@@indreshshivu3338 That's why I say in the video - if there is no way to regulate CO2 in the incubator, you need to remove the blocks from it when the signal pins appear. You can send the video to me on WhatsApp +380503960696 or upload it to your UA-cam channel with the note "not for everyone" and give me the link (send to WhatsApp)

Thank you very much for the photo. I have another photo of yours, where there are these buckets in the center, but the video turned out so long that I decided not to use this photo.

Thank you for your feedback! I agree with you about sterile substrates. Spawn grain is a good food for mycelium and there is no need to select other additives. I believe that the future belongs to sterile substrates. There is only one point in the production of grain spawn - you need to periodically update the culture.

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech I do long term water storage of the earliest mycelium, also use slants, and just got a small cryo freezer box to store originals. The cryo box is no bigger than a wine fridge but the vials I use are only 3 ml so hundreds will fit. Managing cultures and breeding are very time consuming but save so much money long term. Making grain spawn is my next biggest saver. I hope to start selling spawn of some of my own creations at some point. I do agree that sterile substrate is gaining ground, but I will say the ease of pasteurized straw and the cost are second to none. Both have their benefits I suppose and drawbacks. I am a small farm of 6 years, well 3 years growing to sell but only locally and at markets. I am growing though and getting into the legal part of operating legitimately. There is so much to navigate in those terms that I feel the easy part is the lab work and production. No more filing self employed I suppose as I will have a federal tax number soon for my LLC.

I had an LLC, I made bags for sale, in a pasteurization tunnel (10 tons of substrate), and then built growing chambers and sold 4 tons of oyster mushrooms per month. This is very hard work. I was a director, an accountant, and a technologist (for the sake of saving money). In Ukraine, accounting is very complicated and there are many tax reports. And we bought mycelium. But I agree that making mycelium yourself is a big savings.

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech I love the fact that you grow fungus! We each have our own little niches and community is where we share it. I have learned so much from other people as I started just doing the culture work as I'm a failed organic chemistry student. This all started because of my love of foraging and plant tissue culture knowledge. Lol when I realized the techniques are mostly the same but different media I had to try to clone my local species and 6 years later I just built a building with no loans and have collected so many genetics I doubt I could ever fully understand them all on a biological and chemical level. Plus I love to see them grow. I'm sure you can relate to that. Primordia to mature fruit is the most fascinating process I've ever seen and the breeding projects are amazing how diverse a species can be. Often not commercially viable but very enjoyable

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech I agree, that is fantastic. Volume can be nice to employ many people or to make money in large amounts for short periods of time but I've found that with no investors and no loans I can honestly clear 80,000 a year in my pocket after taxes, overhead, operating, fuel, supplies by simply doing all the work myself with one helper. That is enough for me. When I figured my space to run at its best buying in spawn or colonized block, in my area it's just not profitable unless you are growing 1,000 pounds a week. I've been growing 100 moving into the new space soon I can grow 350 to 500 a week and generate a more than fair income. No Interest in more until the economy is better. I've seen many grow to much to fast and close the doors within 3 years and I want to be here for 30. I am sure I am misguided in some areas but steady. I totally respect your ethic and your experience

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I should have clarified this point. The thing is that in Ukraine it is not customary to measure spawn by volume, so I did not think that I needed to explain. When I say 5% I mean from the total weight of the finished substrate, which is mixed with spawn

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech thanks, greetings from Hungary btw

I personally have not worked with sawdust. If you process the substrate in small portions, then you can sterilize it together with wheat bran in a pressure cooker for 90 minutes. The amount of bran should be determined empirically. I would start with 10% bran and make several bags with 15%. Because if you sterilize the bran, you still need a pressure cooker. If you pasteurize the bran, even separately from the sawdust, they most often become overgrown with mold before the oyster mushroom mycelium captures the substrate.

If we are talking about a fairly large amount of substrate to grow oyster mushrooms for sale, the sterilizer can be made from a 200 liter barrel with a lid. I highly recommend buying the book, I personally know the author, and I read this book, there are great tips on creating a family farm, everything is clear and to the point. www.amazon.com/dp/B0D1YSK1CV

Thank you for your comment and your opinion. I have many more ideas and topics for new videos.

Thanks for the comment.

At first I thought you were talking about logs, since the word "woods" was translated as "firewood". However, now I think you are asking about something else. Do you mean wood shavings? Do you make a substrate from these "chips"? And then mix the grain spawn and substrate and put it in bags? If so, how do you process the hardwood chips? Do you sterilize them, pour hot water over them, soak them in a lime solution?

@OysterMushroom_expert-tech Yes, we pasteurize to wood shavings in boiling water for 1h30min (direct contact with soaked wood shavings, usually in nest shape). Then we let it cool down and dry a lilttle bit on a clean surface. After that we proceed to inoculation and bags filling. Do you have an experience with wood shavings or just straw based substart. By the way, we use only wood shavings, no additifs. Thanks for you interaction, you are a very kind person.🙏🍄

I have never worked with wood chips. I don't even have theoretical knowledge about it. So, unfortunately, I can't make a video. As far as I know, chips don't have much nitrogen. Maybe some nitrogen-containing supplements should be added to them? For example, alfalfa hay or soy hulls. Or are you satisfied with the yield?

@OysterMushroom_expert-tech the yield is good enough, but it's a good quality fruits (Mushrooms that are grown on wood generallytend to have good quality). We're using local oak wood. Thanks a lot for every video you made. Please keep the good work 🍄

1. Thank you for your comment. I am truly sorry that you had to face such difficulties while watching my video. You can hear my real voice in this video ua-cam.com/video/KpuSBYPd7ho/v-deo.htmlsi=tvXTJz5xARXuHqlG 2. Unfortunately, I cannot hire anyone, since this channel is my hobby and I am just sharing my knowledge. UA-cam does not pay me a cent for advertising, since I have less than 1000 viewers. 3. My budget is very limited now, since I remain in Ukraine. We had to leave my native Kherson due to constant bombing by the russians. My house has no roof and no glass in the windows because of this. 4. To decide how real I am, you can read about me. veshenka-expert.info/en/oyster-mushroom-cultivation-technology/ 5. You can support my channel if you tell other mushroom growers about me, telling them my background. Perhaps my knowledge is more valuable than the lack of a real voice.

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech thank you for your reply. there were no "difficulties" for me. my objection is over the use of AI. i wanted you and all viewers to stand with me for less artificial and more real people.

@@pigeonmanof180 In the previous comment I explained that I do not use AI. I gave links to my video with my voice and to an article about me. Why are you using this argument again? I repeat to you once again: I WRITE THESE TEXTS MYSELF. Based on my experience. I have been growing oyster mushrooms since 2006. If you do not like learning something new by listening to MY texts read by an artificial voice - I will not hold you back.

@@OysterMushroom_expert-tech no criticism about the content; just the means of communicating it. using an artificial voice falls withing the general category of AI in my view. i'm not disputing your work or experience.

@@pigeonmanof180 Ok. Have you heard my natural voice? Do you think I can read my own texts in English so that it is clear what I am saying? As I explained in the video - I do not speak very clearly even in my native language.

No, you can't spray water on the pins and small mushrooms. Only on the cellophane around the bunches. The block itself can be placed in a plastic box, look on the Internet for how to make "SGFC" - Shotgun Fruiting Chamber.
