I can't stress how great your videos are. Straight forward, no filler, no unnecessary ads, easy explanation for the beginners, absolutely all the thumbs up!
This video is an absolute masterpiece, full on demonstrations with alternate growth methods to understand the process, time stamps, and everything in the description to order, even the microscope. Seriously, great job!
Couldn't agree more.. exactly what I would comment. Great and thorough guide. I just tried out my first kit, with good success. But this shows so much better, how the overall process works. A+ guidance
ma'am you have completely set the bar on instructional videos. This is the number 1 video on this subject there is. Directly to the point never once said "ah", coved many different subjects in a orderly detailed fashion, and did it all with a smile. I do sincerely tip my hat to you.
Duuuuuude you nailed this tutorial down. This might be the most useful tutorial I've seen. It's like you broke the steps down simply without any nonsensical opinion based filler. One huge win for this tutorial is when you show the outstanding results you get. You really grow some serious canopies and your second flush in the inflateable tub was insane! 10/10 stars.
THANK YOU. I have referred back to this video 20+ times in the past 2 months of my first grow and it has been the perfect QUICK, TO-THE-POINT, WELL EDITED guide. 90% of shroomers out there seem to make the most convoluted, disordered, rambling nonsense.
The first words outta my mouth after finishing this video were “This woman’s a Genius” lol this was an absolutely great video. Very informative, not boring, and just all around beautiful. Much gratitude.
Psilocybin has changed my life. June 8, 1999 I was in a horrible accident. I was thrown from the bed of a truck going about 40. I suffered traumatic brain injury and nerve damage that left my legs in pain constantly. Nothing would help except for OxyContin that they don’t prescribe that shit anymore so …. Anyway, back to my story. I woke up about a month ago after a white Gandolf trip and the first thing that was on my mind when I open my eyes in the morning was holy shit my legs don’t hurt. I was blown away. I have experienced mushrooms many times before, but it seems the albino strains make me achieve this effect. In the accident I also suffered traumatic brain injury. It’s like my head has been in a fog for 24 fucking years and now it is gone. I think more clear, I say, or type what I want to say, and the point gets across rather than stumbling over my words . This is a miracle drug and I plan on micro-dosing until the day I die if I keep getting effects like I am getting
Severe spinal cord injuries-- Traumatic Brachial Plexus Avulsions-- pain is unbearable and only methadone helps at all. Trying to find psilocybin in South GA badly. Haven't been able to get any since I moved from Florida in 2012-- Savannah GA SUCKS

Your Story Sounds Like a different Versions of so many Stories I have heard..BUT Not negative. You are absolutely right and I Just wanted to underline IT. Best wishes Bro.😊
I followed this video religiously and today I harvested my first flush! I live in Colorado and it was a much longer process than anticipated in our dry and cold winter. Eventually I bought a warming pad used for propagation and that seemed to really do the trick in getting things moving along. But thank you so much for this very detailed, informative, and concise video. It has been such a fun process that I probably will be doing again soon enough. I also purchased many of the items linked in the description as well as the inflatable monotub. All things that really helped with the process! Great work!
Your channel is all I need , I watched all the UA-camrs, from professional ones to amateur videos, yours is amazing to say the least. Nothing is missed all I needed is to watch twice or three times to get the little details .

@@adonaimorales3560 because shroomer breaks it down to simple steps and actually makes it understandable. A lot of them just keep going on and on with too much unneeded info or don’t say enough leaving you with questions about the whole process. You’re left with the “ I can do this feeling” after listening to her.
I've seen hundreds of videos online and have grown a few times, this is hands down the best, most clear, and informative step by step process I've ever seen. Thanks
Best video ive found. My bag is about 20% colonized. I saw a video that said not to mix it up till about 40-50% . Im so happy you said 10-30%. The hard part is waiting. Im so excited to do stuff ASAP!😅
OMG!!! Thank you so much! This is the first video I have found (I've watched dozens) that makes sense. Great job! Just ordered your monotub and I am so excited to follow everything you do, step by step :)!
Best grow video I’ve seen by far. Great job! I just ordered your inflatable monotub and getting ready to transfer my colonized grow bag to the tub this week. Thank you so much!!!
Absolutely freaking phenomenal!!!!! I woke up this morning not knowing a dam thing about mycology. I mistyped a word that thrust me head first into this rabbit hole !!! I found out it's legal to purchase certain spores for "research" in the US ! Its a little after 3pm now and I have 4 strains coming, Stargazer, APE, Hillbilly and Blue Meanie! I went to Walmart at lunch and got all the supplies for the monotub and as much as the bulk substrate I could find as I couldn't find the vermiculite and I just got finished fabricating a grow closet where I can monitor and maintain the temperature and humidity!!!! Needless to say I'm freaking excited as hell 2025 is definitely going to kick major ass !!!!! Thank you so much for this comprehensive video ! I was able to learn several things I didn't learn throughout the several videos I've watched so far !!!!
You said it at the end of the video, "there are a lot of additional resources on UA-cam, other social media," but this video is a fantastic resource. Good cinematography, great time-lapses, and the information is presented in such a nice and concise way! Fantastic video will be checking on your other info too!
Hi Ashley, Jaye from Aus here and I just want to thank you for your no nonsense approach to the actual title of the video. You have taught me so very much and I am so grateful because a year on it’s still soo much going on and to learn but it’s just so much fun to learn and achieve new and broad types of mushrooms. Between a mate and I changing it up often we have collected about 30-40 spore prints and have successfully cultivated the agar agar dishes. Lions mane was illegal here in Aus for a long time, but now I have a few growths, but I have a magnificent Lions Mane on a tree in my yard where I smeared the agar on to the tree and out of six slices three of them took and formed and is just glorious 🙏🏽 Thank you so kindly, you have changed my life and living with daily debilitating pain from a severe spinal injury I have had no purpose for a long while, but this is just so much fun 💚💚💚 Thanks you again Ashley, much love from Aus 🙏🏽💚☺️
How did Lions Mane help you with daily life and debilitating pain? Do you feel any significant increase in nueorlogical function? Interested in growing lions mane for powder capsules.
This video has it all. When I first saw this video, I did not understand the value. But when you experience it for yourself, you will understand how wonderful it is.
I have watched MANY videos on mushrooms in general and on growing mushrooms. I think this informational video on growing mushrooms is excellent!!! Love the links and your delivery of the information. I plan on pre-ordering at least one of your grow tubs. Just getting into mushrooms and am finding them fascinating. I wish you much luck in your endeavors.
6:39 Do I understand correctly that I first have to mix mushroom spawn 50/50 with the bulk substrate? And at the end a 1 cm top layer with pure bulk substrate, i.e. the 50/50 coconut fiber, vermiculite Mix. How did this work for u?
I love your videos! I mean this next part as a compliment I promise. Seeing you do things like: not crumbling up the spawn as small as possible and not tediously wiping the sides of your monotub, of all excess substrate, is anxiety relieving. I get super caught up trying to make everything perfect. It's nice to know that I can relax on some things moving forward.
Insanely descriptive video, amazing job 👏 thankyou so much for making this! You simplified the entire Agar process which always seemed too confusing to me
Holy crap I've been trying to read and learn the process through forums and other videos and felt so swamped and confused, but you made everything sound so simple and doable! Thank you so much!
Homestead mushroom kits use to be great for new bees 1growbag of substrate and one bag of rye and a spore print loosen the spore into rye shake then it's basically the same as in the video they don't sell the spore and rye in same bag anymore.... its not as hard as people make it out to be after a few times I didn't even worry about contamination just sanitizer on hands before harvest no gloves and I never had one problem. .... good luck
Thanks for these videos! I just finished harvesting my first flush from the inflatable monotub and got just over 2oz dried. Your videos helped me a lot!
getting my first mushrooms from using your grow technique! great video and great framework. I'd remind the beginners out there like me to wait 5 days after your jars are fully colonized before transferring to substrate, and wait another 5 days before switching to fruiting conditions after most of the surface of your bullk substrate is colonized. after going through this process for the first time I can say Patients and sterility are the two most important things to remind yourself of throughout this process.
Just ordered a set of two of your inflatable monotubs for my first try at growing, I’ve been researching so many videos over the past couple of months but after watching this clearly instructed video I decided to pull the trigger. Happy New Years and thanks for spreading the knowledge!!
@@BoomerShroomer i would love to try those inflatable style boxes. Seen in holland or the netherlands but wasnt about to buy it over there. Also, grain to grain has been my most full proof way. I live in a no shipping spores state so i cant say if my source had all contaminated syringes LC and Spires but most had green trych. When i used grain, even if the grain was contaminated, it didnt take. Anytime i used more than 1cc of spores, i get fermented goop. Even grain to grain i usually have to transfer the mycelieum to my shoebox which colonizes seemingly instantly compared to when it stalks out from excess moisture. ANY ADVIVE ON JARS OR BAGS GETTING TOO MOIST EVEN IF DRY GRAIN TO GRAIN. THOSE ARE 10 X WORSE WHEN USING OVER 1CC LIQUID LC OR SPORES.
Just watched this and omg I am staring at the 2 pack of tubs in my cart on your website. This video is so informative and helpful. So much better than any other ones. I love research and really want to start looking at spores under a microscope. Please keep doing what you do. Love your personality!
Great video! Honestly I would love to duplicate and have at my home, but I jumped ship and relocated to the Philippines several years ago. Pan cyan's are almost as common as grass here. But honestly mushrooms basically saved my life. I was struggling with PTSD, severe depression and a few other issues. The mushrooms healed my broken mind.
I really enjoyed this video. It is informative, capturing, and a well rounded video. I loved that you started off with a kit, showed the whole process of growing, then after harvest you showed how to germinate the spores, and live culture on agar starting the process all over again. I will defiantly be watch this video many more time. GREAT JOB.
Excellent video, easy to understand and your shrooms are cute ;) I instantly ordered the inflatable as I'm just a novice and it's exactly what I needed to begin my journey. Cheers
This video is by far the best I have seen on the subject of growing mushrooms. The step by step, no nonsense and detailed approach that you use, is fabulous. Now I actually feel confidemt enough to go ahead and fruit. Thank you so much . Also the camera and editing work is superb. I live in rural southern England, and although there are plenty of liberty caps and some wavys to harvest, it is seasonal. Also you can wind up getting an assful of buckshot! "Him were on moi laaand!" From an angry farmer. This isnt without reason though because they get fed up with guys from the city trampling crops a d leaving gates open etc, so the ability to grow at home all year round is most appealing . Thanks.
This mushroom video is the best I've seen so far. I don't have lab equipment or grow tents. I'm new to mushroom cultivation. I can handle these instructions. Thanks Boomer Shroomer. Jeannine
@@masterpopeyoda3290 I wasn’t clear at all I was referring to the process not the video my bad. I grow a lot of things but none of them are this in-depth
Superbly made, clearly spoken and probably the best video for beginners and cultivators. And she didn't even ask for 'fundings' which was very humble of her. When you get this much professional info without 'push', it tickles your gratitude to give back. What a great & wonderful mentor. I don't know if she invented the inflatable bin but it's a great idea... Much obliged. Now all I need is to buy the spores I need to beggin my farm. I wonder if she has GT or other types.
Hi Ashley! Your presentation is thorough and fantastic! I agree wholeheartedly with Nathan's comments below...and I have the extra credibility of having been a TV and film producer for 33 years. Long before anyone with a phone and a mic could call themselves a producer or director...a handfull a talented people were paid by Hollywood, New York, Dallas, and Miami to produce expensive products on film and 1 or 2" video tape. I was one of those folks. You are vivacious; engaging; linear; easy to follow and instructive. I rate you an A+. Bravo!
Tip: when drilling holes in plastic with a hole saw, run the drill in reverse. It will still make the hole and it reduces the risk of cracking as the tool breaks through. It makes a huge difference in some plastics.
how does that make sense? The drill just goes from clockwise to anti-clockwise, how does going the different direction change anything? Its still spinning
@@superlambmilkshake4904 try it, you'll see. I learned that trick from UA-cam videos about aquaponics. Several people said it so I tried it. And it is definitely better to cut holes in plastic with a hole saw in reverse, especially when you break through the back.
@@superlambmilkshake4904 Because the teeth on the drill bit all face one direction. By running it in reverse, you spin the bit in the same direction the teeth are facing, preventing the teeth from "catching" on the plastic and shattering it.
@@uglyalaric845 after inoculation you want it to incubate at around a steady temperature of 77°F or so And then once you introduce fruiting you want to drop the temperature to around 72-74°F Mushrooms will grow at even as low as 60° sometimes lower, but at lower temperature the mycelium works slower, and at higher temperature the mycelium eats faster and replicates itself, but contamination also thrives at higher temperatures that are 80°F+ so the higher the temperature the more risk
This is FANTASTIC! So many confusing videos out there on this topic but this video makes me feel like I'm ready to give this a shot with some very helpful insight. Thanks so much!
@@nikkifigueroa4441 Midwest grow kit. Kit was awesome, I got the deluxe spawn and casing kit. So far everything is going great with the kit, I did buy extra 1 lb bags of rye Berry grain off of Etsy.. highly recommend them! Those spawn bags off of Etsy have given me way better mycelium growth than the midwestern spawn bags. But I highly recommend the kit! After you inoculate the spawn bags you stick them in the plastic tub it comes in that will sit on top of a warm water 1/2 filled second tub with the fish tank water heater.
Guys this is actually a master tier video like how many people came here trying to learn how to grow these and now know exactly what to do? You don’t get that all the time right?
Hello! Amazing guide! I just have one question...What's in the spawn bag? I have never really understood how all this is done until this video! You're so straight and to the point it makes everything really easy to understand. You're awesome!
Wow! You explained everything extremely well. I would love to see you discussing different types of contamination and how to deal with that. Thanks for the video! Very, very well done.
Nice no-nonsense guide to mushrooming, without loads of expensive equipment or gimmics. The inclusion of the time frames was also useful. It was nice to see the fruiting process time lapse too, though the childish side of me did chuckle a bit since they look so much like...well, you know what! :-D
Best video BY FAR. Thanks for taking so much time and care. I’m a first time grower and every other vid seems incomplete. Yours helps give me confidence!
This video is great but it's missing some key information: do you store this in the dark during the growing process? Is there a need for a grow light at any point?
Good ?’s did you get an answer? Or was it in the video? I haven’t watched it all at this point collecting the answers to ?!s then I’ll watch together lol
Thank you so much, I come back to your videos frequently. You helped me start my growing experience. Absolutely great advice. 😊 I recommend her for new viewers.
This was such a great video , very thorough. And I loved that you left the links for these items. Thanks! Will be starting my very own for the first time.
That video was seriously impressive! I was eyes glued to the screen the whole time. I've seen so many videos on mushies and this was hands down the best i've seen. Thanks so much :)
Wonderful presentation! The best I have seen. I am a raw beginner but a science fan and your presentation tied together a lot of loose ends , greatly enriching my understanding. You did a lot of hard work pulling all this together so nicely. Thank you very much! Becky
This was by far the best mushroom growing video I’ve watched. I’m super excited to try my hand at growing. I know you don’t really post much anymore but I’d love to see some of your more recent mushroom flushes. Also where do you get you mushroom cultures?
Anyone on ssri considering trying mushshrooms, just know that ssri’s act as a blocker on mushrooms. You’d have to get off your ssri for at least 4 days, maybe a week if you’ve been taking it long term. So that may not be worth it to you if you had depression or anxiety and you’ve been doing good on your ssri.
I haven’t taken shrooms on ssri’s but I was on Zoloft when I took lsd and it’s probably the same reaction for both. Really really good time and only skipped a day of medication for the trip. It wasn’t a big amount of lsd but I don’t know what people mean when they say medication kills the trip. I took shrooms while I was 6 months off my antidepressants and I had a very uncomfortable time. The only thing I figured out was that my depression would give me bad trips every time, and ssri’s would give me the most optimum mindset to trip, so you should go for it and just enjoy however much you feel :)
I can't stress how great your videos are. Straight forward, no filler, no unnecessary ads, easy explanation for the beginners, absolutely all the thumbs up!

A lot of them just keep going on and on with too much unneeded info or don’t say enough leaving you with questions about the whole process. You’re left with the “ I can do this feeling” after listening to her.
Same here!!! Thank the shroom gods for boomer shroomer 🤠🤠
@@haighyvshaighy agreed. Everyone else talks too fast without any explanation of what they’re doing. That or they add pointless steps for no reason.
You are awesome. I’ve watched a bunch of videos on mushrooms. You are the first one that tells everything from start to finish. Thanks a millions
YOU ARE DOING THE LORD'S WORK! Thank you so much for this!
I've seen hundreds of videos online and have grown a few times, this is hands down the best, most clear, and informative step by step process I've ever seen.
Thanks
Thank you!
It is truly the best. Subscribed ❤️
Are these the mushrooms that make you trip
Best video ive found. My bag is about 20% colonized. I saw a video that said not to mix it up till about 40-50% . Im so happy you said 10-30%. The hard part is waiting. Im so excited to do stuff ASAP!😅
I am NEW to growing and after watching this video, I have finally understood the process! Thanks so much!
OMG!!! Thank you so much! This is the first video I have found (I've watched dozens) that makes sense. Great job! Just ordered your monotub and I am so excited to follow everything you do, step by step :)!
Thank you!
Best grow video I’ve seen by far. Great job! I just ordered your inflatable monotub and getting ready to transfer my colonized grow bag to the tub this week. Thank you so much!!!
Absolutely freaking phenomenal!!!!! I woke up this morning not knowing a dam thing about mycology. I mistyped a word that thrust me head first into this rabbit hole !!! I found out it's legal to purchase certain spores for "research" in the US ! Its a little after 3pm now and I have 4 strains coming, Stargazer, APE, Hillbilly and Blue Meanie! I went to Walmart at lunch and got all the supplies for the monotub and as much as the bulk substrate I could find as I couldn't find the vermiculite and I just got finished fabricating a grow closet where I can monitor and maintain the temperature and humidity!!!! Needless to say I'm freaking excited as hell 2025 is definitely going to kick major ass !!!!! Thank you so much for this comprehensive video ! I was able to learn several things I didn't learn throughout the several videos I've watched so far !!!!
i've been fixating on growing mushrooms for a while, and this is the most complete and direct video i've found for the whole process. well done
My sentients exactly
If you're on the edge just do it already, I have been on the verge for months and said F it. I'm a day or two away from starting fruiting conditionsm
@@ButtSauce666 nice bro, picking your harvest is so rewarding. Enjoy
@@ButtSauce666 Thats what I said. Will be inoculating a spawn bag this weekend.
@@jem3185 i think you mean sentiments
You said it at the end of the video, "there are a lot of additional resources on UA-cam, other social media," but this video is a fantastic resource. Good cinematography, great time-lapses, and the information is presented in such a nice and concise way! Fantastic video will be checking on your other info too!
Double Blind is another great channel they also provide a lot of knowledge and additional resources
Hi Ashley, Jaye from Aus here and I just want to thank you for your no nonsense approach to the actual title of the video.
You have taught me so very much and I am so grateful because a year on it’s still soo much going on and to learn but it’s just so much fun to learn and achieve new and broad types of mushrooms.
Between a mate and I changing it up often we have collected about 30-40 spore prints and have successfully cultivated the agar agar dishes.
Lions mane was illegal here in Aus for a long time, but now I have a few growths, but I have a magnificent Lions Mane on a tree in my yard where I smeared the agar on to the tree and out of six slices three of them took and formed and is just glorious 🙏🏽
Thank you so kindly, you have changed my life and living with daily debilitating pain from a severe spinal injury I have had no purpose for a long while, but this is just so much fun 💚💚💚
Thanks you again Ashley, much love from Aus 🙏🏽💚☺️
How did Lions Mane help you with daily life and debilitating pain? Do you feel any significant increase in nueorlogical function? Interested in growing lions mane for powder capsules.
This video has it all. When I first saw this video, I did not understand the value. But when you experience it for yourself, you will understand how wonderful it is.
I have watched MANY videos on mushrooms in general and on growing mushrooms. I think this informational video on growing mushrooms is excellent!!! Love the links and your delivery of the information. I plan on pre-ordering at least one of your grow tubs. Just getting into mushrooms and am finding them fascinating. I wish you much luck in your endeavors.
"Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms", by Paul Stamets , is the best book I have ever read on any subject. Highly recommend.
1571 pages too!
It’s starring Paul stamets
Great book
My learning curve went from 0,5 to 100% during this video, thanks so much, incredibly informative, subbed and liked
PROVE IT !!
6:39 Do I understand correctly that I first have to mix mushroom spawn 50/50 with the bulk substrate? And at the end a 1 cm top layer with pure bulk substrate, i.e. the 50/50 coconut fiber, vermiculite Mix. How did this work for u?
u ok hun? Is the internet a bit much for you? @@willprice8696
I love your videos! I mean this next part as a compliment I promise. Seeing you do things like: not crumbling up the spawn as small as possible and not tediously wiping the sides of your monotub, of all excess substrate, is anxiety relieving. I get super caught up trying to make everything perfect. It's nice to know that I can relax on some things moving forward.
Insanely descriptive video, amazing job 👏 thankyou so much for making this! You simplified the entire Agar process which always seemed too confusing to me
Okay, I totally geeked out when I got notification that you made a new video. Excellent content, as always!!!
Thank you! 😊
Holy crap I've been trying to read and learn the process through forums and other videos and felt so swamped and confused, but you made everything sound so simple and doable! Thank you so much!
Homestead mushroom kits use to be great for new bees 1growbag of substrate and one bag of rye and a spore print loosen the spore into rye shake then it's basically the same as in the video they don't sell the spore and rye in same bag anymore.... its not as hard as people make it out to be after a few times I didn't even worry about contamination just sanitizer on hands before harvest no gloves and I never had one problem. .... good luck
This is the only video on the net that shows your the correct way ! Using this step for step I was finally able to grow mines. Thankyou moma !!!
Thanks for these videos! I just finished harvesting my first flush from the inflatable monotub and got just over 2oz dried. Your videos helped me a lot!
Hello! Just curious about how much your first harvest was fresh vs dried? Did you yield less during the flush?
I’ve used her monotub and substrate and I have to say… it’s top quality and easy to use! Highly recommend!
Where do i get the solution she injected into the bag at fist?
@@tohkaakafatal6453
I got mine at Sporeworks, got mine in less than 4 days through the mail.
getting my first mushrooms from using your grow technique! great video and great framework. I'd remind the beginners out there like me to wait 5 days after your jars are fully colonized before transferring to substrate, and wait another 5 days before switching to fruiting conditions after most of the surface of your bullk substrate is colonized. after going through this process for the first time I can say Patients and sterility are the two most important things to remind yourself of throughout this process.
Don’t wait too long to start fruiting because overlay becomes an issue. Thank you!! ❤️❤️
5 days ? once it's fully colonized it doesn't colonize any more wait any longer and your rye will fruit without substrate.
Where do you get your spore syringes from
@@devinsmith38 you make them
The best I've seen. No unnecessary yaking. Thank you
Just ordered a set of two of your inflatable monotubs for my first try at growing, I’ve been researching so many videos over the past couple of months but after watching this clearly instructed video I decided to pull the trigger. Happy New Years and thanks for spreading the knowledge!!
Thank you!
@@BoomerShroomer i would love to try those inflatable style boxes. Seen in holland or the netherlands but wasnt about to buy it over there.
Also, grain to grain has been my most full proof way. I live in a no shipping spores state so i cant say if my source had all contaminated syringes LC and Spires but most had green trych.
When i used grain, even if the grain was contaminated, it didnt take.
Anytime i used more than 1cc of spores, i get fermented goop.
Even grain to grain i usually have to transfer the mycelieum to my shoebox which colonizes seemingly instantly compared to when it stalks out from excess moisture.
ANY ADVIVE ON JARS OR BAGS GETTING TOO MOIST EVEN IF DRY GRAIN TO GRAIN. THOSE ARE 10 X WORSE WHEN USING OVER 1CC LIQUID LC OR SPORES.
@@BoomerShroomer can you show what you mean i.e. how to dry using a fan I'm a broke shroomer
I also just bought an inflatable tub….looking forward to getting it going!
@@ashsherman thank you. I couldn't find any tubs on her website
Just watched this and omg I am staring at the 2 pack of tubs in my cart on your website. This video is so informative and helpful. So much better than any other ones. I love research and really want to start looking at spores under a microscope. Please keep doing what you do. Love your personality!
Thank you! ❤️🍄
Hi
Ya, Just love lookin' at them spores under a microscope! lol
Great video!
Honestly I would love to duplicate and have at my home, but I jumped ship and relocated to the Philippines several years ago. Pan cyan's are almost as common as grass here.
But honestly mushrooms basically saved my life. I was struggling with PTSD, severe depression and a few other issues. The mushrooms healed my broken mind.
probably why they are illegal.
i don’t ever comment on videos but i’ve been looking to grow my own and this has been the most helpful video ever thank you
Definitely the best monotub video I've seen to date. Very thorough and detailed!
Wow, thanks!
I really enjoyed this video. It is informative, capturing, and a well rounded video.
I loved that you started off with a kit, showed the whole process of growing, then after harvest you showed how to germinate the spores, and live culture on agar starting the process all over again. I will defiantly be watch this video many more time. GREAT JOB.
Thanks so much! 🍄❤️🍄
The single best video on the topic. It’s taken me a while, but glad to have come across this wonderful knowledge.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video, easy to understand and your shrooms are cute ;)
I instantly ordered the inflatable as I'm just a novice and it's exactly what I needed to begin my journey. Cheers
This video is by far the best I have seen on the subject of growing mushrooms. The step by step, no nonsense and detailed approach that you use, is fabulous.
Now I actually feel confidemt enough to go ahead and fruit.
Thank you so much .
Also the camera and editing work is superb.
I live in rural southern England, and although there are plenty of liberty caps and some wavys to harvest, it is seasonal. Also you can wind up getting an assful of buckshot! "Him were on moi laaand!" From an angry farmer. This isnt without reason though because they get fed up with guys from the city trampling crops a d leaving gates open etc, so the ability to grow at home all year round is most appealing .
Thanks.
Thank you!! ❤️❤️
Daaaamn!! That's the best how to grow video I've seen on youtube and I've seen them all!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!
Thank you!
Totally agree!
This mushroom video is the best I've seen so far. I don't have lab equipment or grow tents. I'm new to mushroom cultivation. I can handle these instructions. Thanks Boomer Shroomer. Jeannine
The most complete guide on Growing Mushrooms for beginners I have found on UA-cam. Thank you!
Can't wait to start my own.
Still seems extremely long winded 😂
@@samdub my guy if you cant stand 15 minutes you may not be patient enough to grow living things.
@@masterpopeyoda3290 I wasn’t clear at all I was referring to the process not the video my bad. I grow a lot of things but none of them are this in-depth
@@samdub oh ok thats my bad lol. I didn't pick up on the laughing tone in your voice.
Where do you get spores from she didn’t explain that idk how to get just spores bruh😭😭 im missing the very very first step
Superbly made, clearly spoken and probably the best video for beginners and cultivators. And she didn't even ask for 'fundings' which was very humble of her. When you get this much professional info without 'push', it tickles your gratitude to give back. What a great & wonderful mentor. I don't know if she invented the inflatable bin but it's a great idea... Much obliged. Now all I need is to buy the spores I need to beggin my farm. I wonder if she has GT or other types.
Thank you! ❤️❤️ If you purchase from me add a note to your order and I’ll throw some freebies in for you.
Hi Ashley!
Your presentation is thorough and fantastic! I agree wholeheartedly with Nathan's comments below...and I have the extra credibility of having been a TV and film producer for 33 years. Long before anyone with a phone and a mic could call themselves a producer or director...a handfull a talented people were paid by Hollywood, New York, Dallas, and Miami to produce expensive products on film and 1 or 2" video tape. I was one of those folks.
You are vivacious; engaging; linear; easy to follow and instructive. I rate you an A+. Bravo!
Been watching your videos for a while, and just ordered your monotub from Amazon. Waiting for it to get here in the next day or two. Excited to grow.
Tip: when drilling holes in plastic with a hole saw, run the drill in reverse. It will still make the hole and it reduces the risk of cracking as the tool breaks through. It makes a huge difference in some plastics.
how does that make sense? The drill just goes from clockwise to anti-clockwise, how does going the different direction change anything? Its still spinning
@@superlambmilkshake4904 try it, you'll see. I learned that trick from UA-cam videos about aquaponics. Several people said it so I tried it. And it is definitely better to cut holes in plastic with a hole saw in reverse, especially when you break through the back.
@@superlambmilkshake4904 Because the teeth on the drill bit all face one direction. By running it in reverse, you spin the bit in the same direction the teeth are facing, preventing the teeth from "catching" on the plastic and shattering it.
@@codysaraceno6900 interesting...
Thanks! This information should help when I make chicken feeders
This 1 video has turned into thousands of hours of research and reading. I'm now intermediate level I'd say. I truly appreciate you.
Should these be at a consistent temps or different temps between inoculating and fruiting? I want to start soon there’s just some last questions I had
@@uglyalaric845 after inoculation you want it to incubate at around a steady temperature of 77°F or so
And then once you introduce fruiting you want to drop the temperature to around 72-74°F
Mushrooms will grow at even as low as 60° sometimes lower, but at lower temperature the mycelium works slower, and at higher temperature the mycelium eats faster and replicates itself, but contamination also thrives at higher temperatures that are 80°F+ so the higher the temperature the more risk
@@DamnBrother I live in a cold state that’s why I was wondering thank you getting my first kid going soon!
I'm very impressed by this content. I agree with the rest of the commenters that this was an easy video to follow and an easier decision to subscribe.
This is FANTASTIC! So many confusing videos out there on this topic but this video makes me feel like I'm ready to give this a shot with some very helpful insight. Thanks so much!
I ordered my spores and kit and they came in the mail today! This video couldn't have better timing! You are amazing at what you do!
I'm about to order a kit also! Where did you order from? Is there a reputable spore source?
@@nikkifigueroa4441 Midwest grow kit. Kit was awesome, I got the deluxe spawn and casing kit. So far everything is going great with the kit, I did buy extra 1 lb bags of rye Berry grain off of Etsy.. highly recommend them! Those spawn bags off of Etsy have given me way better mycelium growth than the midwestern spawn bags. But I highly recommend the kit! After you inoculate the spawn bags you stick them in the plastic tub it comes in that will sit on top of a warm water 1/2 filled second tub with the fish tank water heater.
I can’t believe how much valuable content is packed into one 15-minute video. Thank you, Boomer Shroomer. I have shared your video with friends too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Guys this is actually a master tier video like how many people came here trying to learn how to grow these and now know exactly what to do? You don’t get that all the time right?
This was outstanding, the detail you gave was immaculate like no else! I'm definitely buying that inflatable kit!
Incredibly helpful to see the entire process put together in this way. It must have taken a lot of time and effort to put this together. Thank you.

What a beautiful video! Growing mushrooms is super intimidating, but this video made me feel very at ease.
Growing mushrooms is like the easiest thing ever done
This is one of the better videos I've seen on this tek. Great editing, thorough explanations, perfect pace..👍
Hello! Amazing guide! I just have one question...What's in the spawn bag? I have never really understood how all this is done until this video! You're so straight and to the point it makes everything really easy to understand. You're awesome!
theres a lot of different things you can use in spawn bags, some people use rice or other types of grain.
Millet grain is best. You can also use brown rice
Hands down best video I’ve seen yet, thank you for your hard work and dedication to the craft!! And thanks for not rambling on.
Wow! You explained everything extremely well. I would love to see you discussing different types of contamination and how to deal with that. Thanks for the video! Very, very well done.
I am working o this video right now.
@@BoomerShroomer can’t wait!
The tip for dealing with contamination is to throw it out and start over.
Nice no-nonsense guide to mushrooming, without loads of expensive equipment or gimmics. The inclusion of the time frames was also useful.
It was nice to see the fruiting process time lapse too, though the childish side of me did chuckle a bit since they look so much like...well, you know what! :-D
lol thank you!
Hands down the best video I’ve seen on this. So easy to follow. You’ve created a monster!! 😂 best of luck to you. Can’t wait to get my orders!!
Put your Hands up Buddy cause Kansas is going to bye bye
Good golly miss molly, that was the best start to finish I’ve seen so far , you are a great teacher. 🙏
Best video BY FAR. Thanks for taking so much time and care. I’m a first time grower and every other vid seems incomplete. Yours helps give me confidence!
It is Not Far, it is near my friend
What substrate do you use in the bag for the injection process? Thank you this video is very helpful!
This video is great but it's missing some key information: do you store this in the dark during the growing process? Is there a need for a grow light at any point?
Good ?’s did you get an answer? Or was it in the video? I haven’t watched it all at this point collecting the answers to ?!s then I’ll watch together lol
Ok this is the first video after maaaaany that is clear and shows ALL the steps. Ill be saving this one. Thanks!
Thank you so much, I come back to your videos frequently. You helped me start my growing experience. Absolutely great advice. 😊 I recommend her for new viewers.
This was such a great video , very thorough. And I loved that you left the links for these items. Thanks! Will be starting my very own for the first time.
May your journey be blessed
That video was seriously impressive! I was eyes glued to the screen the whole time. I've seen so many videos on mushies and this was hands down the best i've seen. Thanks so much :)
Thank you so much! ❤️🍄❤️
Such a great video thank you! Any tips on how to colonize agar from dehydrated fruits?
Wonderful presentation! The best I have seen. I am a raw beginner but a science fan and your presentation tied together a lot of loose ends , greatly enriching my understanding. You did a lot of hard work pulling all this together so nicely. Thank you very much! Becky
Agreed! Excellent!
This was by far the best mushroom growing video I’ve watched. I’m super excited to try my hand at growing. I know you don’t really post much anymore but I’d love to see some of your more recent mushroom flushes. Also where do you get you mushroom cultures?
Everyone remotely interested in growing mushrooms should START WITH THIS VIDEO! It answers questions you don't know you have yet.
She did miss some important parts but as a beginner doing research has helped a lot! 15 mins felt like 2 seconds of knowledge
Anyone on ssri considering trying mushshrooms, just know that ssri’s act as a blocker on mushrooms. You’d have to get off your ssri for at least 4 days, maybe a week if you’ve been taking it long term. So that may not be worth it to you if you had depression or anxiety and you’ve been doing good on your ssri.
I haven’t taken shrooms on ssri’s but I was on Zoloft when I took lsd and it’s probably the same reaction for both. Really really good time and only skipped a day of medication for the trip. It wasn’t a big amount of lsd but I don’t know what people mean when they say medication kills the trip. I took shrooms while I was 6 months off my antidepressants and I had a very uncomfortable time. The only thing I figured out was that my depression would give me bad trips every time, and ssri’s would give me the most optimum mindset to trip, so you should go for it and just enjoy however much you feel :)
I think this is hands down the best “how to grow” videos I’ve come across. And i’m not a newbie. Thank you for this! .
