Can I get a ten hour mix of this guy just talking about mushrooms? This is the chillest vibe ever.
ive been watching him all day, for about 10 hours lol
@@seancostello26 HUH, you horny bro, go get chill friends like him, lol
Just having it running while I sit on my phone and scroll social media 🤣
I’ll work on that.
Trimming my bud harvest while watching an listening to this. I HAD to stop trimming and get the sticky off my hands to say..I'm so happy I found this dude hes got it goin on hes just leaking out all the good info I'm absorbin for sure!
Regardless of the topic, when someone is so knowledgeable and interested in something, it’s infectious. Incredible operation man.
@Fred Jimmerson Is yours ?,are you an incel?
@Fred Jimmerson Yes. You think you can just turn off our interest by being a snide clown? Adorable. Tell me more about how intellectually equipped you are to not be impressed by knowledgeable people. You are truly impressive Fred.
I was thinking the same exact thing.
What a lovely, young, educated man. I could listen to you for hours.
ROMÂNIA /🤩 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🙌
Me too
This dude is a wealth of knowledge of stuff I will never remember, but its enjoyable learning because he's so chill
Yeah but honestly who pronounces the s in debris. :)
exactly
No shit, I just started watching him and wanted to learn more, he knows his product he's a Jedi!
Yes, I concur. If i am not mistaken the shiitake powders is quite the flavor enhancer to many dishes. It delivers the taste sensation of Unami otherwise know as the fifth taste sensation, ie bitter, sweet, sour, salty and now Unami. Just another good reason to grow it.
@@compscilaw a ton of people use both pronunciations, at least where I am
Whenever I’m feeling down I come here and watch him talk about shiitake
Shiitake tastes like shit imo
I am glad you are here with all of us.
@@angrypastabrewing ake?
I feel like I'm listening to bubba talking about shrimps but only its mushrooms. love it
😂
Psilocybin DMT, mushrooms and psychedelics, as a whole, have shown substantial promise as beneficial agents that can truly aid individuals grappling with mental health difficulties
I totally agree! DMT, Psilocybin mushrooms and psychedelics in general have shown great potential in helping people with mental health issues. It's truly remarkable how effective they can be in treating depression and anxiety
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Germany. Really need!
I can say dr.raymycology is the man for you
dr.raymycology has pure psychedelics products
On instgram?
anyone else just sitting here listening to this guy talk like it's ASMR? I could listen to him talk about mushrooms all day, such a calm voice.
Bob Ross of mushroom world.
Lmao 😂 true dat
Word!!!
That's exactly what I was thinking. Today let's harvest some happy little mushrooms

Thats paul staments
watching this guy makes you want to start growing mushrooms.
Dude when you opened that tent I was like jeeeezzz
Mush room mike was a high school friend always been so passionate about his craft always really in all good man mad love broo
This guy is awesome he is so generous with his knowledge
I like how he properly states "youll shit it out the same way you ate it"
This is so peaceful I don’t know how I ended up here but I’m happy
All of the knowledge you share is beautiful. Not the knowledge, but the fact that you share so fearlessly. Most people have tainted greedy hearts, and feel that success is a limited resource. It’s always so heartwarming to find someone who genuinely and selflessly wants others to succeed. You are sharing with anonymous sources, expecting nothing in return. That is so rare. You’re such a cool guy. Your giving nature shows that The universe will continue to bless you. Love you brother. 🥰
Bro I could listen to you talk about mushrooms all day lol..so much knowledge man. much respect to you and your love for the shrooms.
Im on my second video. I see this goin all day. These peope are my celebrity. My box set to binge
I didn't know uncooked mushrooms don't digest properly, good to know!!
I can't find any evidence to coroborate this claim. Could anyone back this up please. Not saying he's wrong but I was curious to know more so I googled it and found nothing.
@@erranw Most mushrooms have cell walls that are just sort of hard for your body to break down raw, cooking them helps break the cells down so that your body can get at the goodies inside much easier. That's what he means by "they provide no nutritional value when raw" - your body just has to work too hard to get at the nutritional bits when they're uncooked to provide much net benefit. Also, depending on the strain, mushrooms can have some chemicals in them that aren't super great for your body. Of course, some strains are straight up lethal if unprepared, but most edible mushrooms, when raw, fall more into the category of "hard on your liver/ kidneys/ other organs to process" and/ or slightly carcinogenic. Cooking them pretty well destroys the chemicals that cause this issue. Paul Stamets talks about it on his interview on the Joe Rogan show, and he's written about it in his books, too.
hostdefense.com/blogs/host-defense-blog/raw-mushrooms
It's a blog post, I know, but the actual articles I found all had links that were a billion miles long. It's a good start though.
I never knew that too
@Timmy RedruM Chill they arent toxic or indigestive
@@erranw ya i found that odd and do not believe it blindly just because he said so. i admit he knows a lot about shrooms but the concept of shrooms not giving you nutrition raw is just weird. why does eating raw magic shrooms make you trip if you get nothing out of raw mushrooms? flawed
I’ve been buying your mushrooms from the farmers market! So awesome to find out you have a UA-cam channel 🍄
Farmers market ?
@@marvinbennett8384 he has the markets on the website and instagram of the mushroom bussines!
you can find it on insta with his name!
@@diegofrancofioravante97 idk bruh im ol school, i dont accept nothing like that in the mail lol.
How much are the shiitake mushrooms at the Farmers market. Walmart never carries them
Are they any good? I'm really curious about their taste, usually it's like a metal flavor or something like that.
I could watch this dude talk all day
He is really the Professor with curly hair telling us about the mushroom heist.
I know right
I recently got into cultivation I'm 23. I see myself having a long career In this feild.
I also want to start in this business, sadly here in Brazil things are hard to start
@@end.olives hey man, you should start at home, it's not all that expensive if you know what to work with. There are some other channels I reccomend so you can learn more. Home Mycology, Arvin FortySeven, there's a portuguse guy called Vasco Antônio M.P. which is really good too, and I've got some videos going on mushroom cultivation if you are interested. E um salve do Brasil também irmão, cultivar cogumelos é muito bom, recomendo demais esse hobbie. Mais algumas indicações pra vc começar a estudar se tiver interesse é o site Fungicultura, e os livros do Paul Stamets sobre cultivo, Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms que vc pode encontrar completo no site archive . org, The Mushroom Cultivation, entre outros.
@@PsicodeliaAlternativa Ja tive uma colheita de psilobe a uns tempos, peguei paixão pelo negócio. Queria começar uma fazendinha de shimeji ou shitake ja que aqui na cidade não tem, mas acredito que vai ser difícil convencer as pessoas de que não vao morrer comendo cogumelos comestiveis. Vou procurar os livros que você me recomendou, obrigado!
@@end.olives hahahaha, é difícil superar o preconceito mesmo, eu to mais ou menos na mesma posição que vc mas to avançando devagar pq não tenho grana pra investir. Penso em começar nas feirinhas com shimeji, shiitake e juba de leão pra pegar bem o jeito do cultivo e se der certo, expandir o cultivo. Boa sorte pra você aí na sua empreitada irmão.
@@PsicodeliaAlternativa depends on how much you want to spend. I mean a couple of aa's aren't cheap. I guess it comes down to how dedicated one is to this hobby.
It is amazing that this guy is so open to sharing so much information, particularly when working in such a niche industry. Most entrepreneurs closely guard their processes. Thank you for introducing me to this fascinating world of mycology!
he's promoting himself by letting customers know what's up. double edged sword
@@Chalado-Schamane how is that bad?
@@Chalado-Schamane good
this is all stuff you can find out, shiitakes have been cultivated for like 300 years at this point.
He is confident in his abilities. He must also have a loyal clientele.
Great job! Learned a ton watching this. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.
I learned so much, thank you for producing these videos
This has to be one of the best mushroom channels on youtube. keep up the great videos!!
PLEASE upload more. You and Paul Stamets are legend. Mushrooms and bee keepers are saving the world, people dont even realize
Very concise and full of great pointers. So far my favorite tutorial. Thanks man!
So excited to see a local grower, I’ve been wanting to add more mushrooms to my diet.
I really appreciate you putting out these videos man i love mushrooms and wish more people knew the benefits of eating mushrooms. You should definitely think about putting out a book.
You make me feel like I'm just hanging out with you. I can watch you all day, and you're amazingly informative.
Watching you clip those Shiitakes and listening to your educational narrative is so totally ASMR!
Beautiful grow rooms, great episode looking forward to binge watching other videos as I dive into the world of mycology
i love how you just start with the videos instead of coming up with a long introduction because all the infos are in the title anyways 👌🏼👌🏼
Love the whole vibe of this video. So chill and therapeutic.
Well of knowledge that we all can learn from. Cheers!
You're so thorough and chill. I really enjoy your videos.
Lots of knowledge about the whole process, I've learned so much! Cheers. Happy harvesting.
I first saw your operations on another channel from "USA Today Life," before this channel existed. Now you have a UA-cam channel showing how you grow different varieties of mushrooms in a cool and educational way. Would love to see more details in your methods of growing. And, it would be interesting to see more tips and tricks on improving and tackle certain problems that can appear when having that kind of facility with all of those precious mushroom varieties. Keep up the good growing!
Youre godsend my friend, soo much useful information for newbies like me.
Never been so interested in mushroom before!!! Thanks for peaking my interest. Love the dedication
Thank you for all that you do. I'm learning so much watching your videos.
Man, thank you so much for your videos! I’ve learned a ton, and I love how you explain things. I look forward to new videos!
That actually looks oddly fun just sitting there cutting off shiitake mushrooms. I hope one day i can get a decent mushroom farm
Absolutely incredible. You really picked your field and ran with it. You're an inspiration to all!
So cool, I’m truly fascinated. Thx for sharing man 💜🍄💜
He’s so excited to talk about what he loves his knowledge is never ending love it
Enjoyed your video.
Blessings To All Worthy Of Being Blessed
I'm so glad I found this channel. Amazing.
So fascinating. I find his absolute authority on the subject oddly soothing, so I keep falling asleep and have to start over!
My guy is for sure high on life. The type of dude you know you'd be friends with without ever meeting in person.
"has been used for food and medicine for... quite a while" I love that high guy lmao. Pretty knowledgeable tbh. Thanks for sharing
Your videos are awesome! Thank you for sharing your experience
I'm loving these videos. Thanks
I appreciate everything you have to share. Your delivery is never boring! You have an awesome job, I hope I can see this facility one day soon! You have been an inspiration for me since I began this mycological journey! I will join the ranks and become a grower one day here in Southern California. Thanks again!
i love that he just goes into how you can do it yourself, this seems like a real cool thing
Its a hobby that brings peace to ur mind and has healthy rewards for the body
Cant get enough of this information! So chill, makes me wanna try and grow some of these. Sounds daunting but at the same time possible, when you hear him explain. So mesmerizing! Appreciate you sharing it with us!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience! 🙏🏻
I thinks it’s amazing that you’re so interested in mushrooms and want to share your information with people
Watching this guy do his thing... Just relaxes me for some reason... I've been obsessed with growing mushroom over the last year.. Hope to start a farm like this on a smaller scale some day
I really enjoy your stress-busting videos, thanks.
I am obsessed with your videos man, they are so knowledgeable and just a true pleasure to watch.
Thank You for sharing these vids! Love watching your investment and passion for the fungi. You've taught me so much with your videos. New to the fungi world, and mainly forage, but aspire to someday grow.
I dont know why but im very proud of you and your Loving of your Job
This guy is my hero. Been following him for years. Amazing work and lifestyle. Your awesome
Thank you for sharing your knowledge generously.
Amazing❤️ I would love to apprentice here
Mate I have been loving you vids, thank you for sharing your wisdom :) curious you mention chitin! Do you know how t extract it from the mushroom! I’ve seen a few people doing it with the lobster shells but don’t know if that process would work with mushrooms! Any advice?
Wow, excellent content and i learned so much.
I could watch your videos and listen to your valuable information for hours!!
This guy is incredible 👏 🙌 absolutely love his knowledge and so so inspirational ❤️ thank you for what you do.
I'm also mad about mushrooms 🍄 😍 and love your videos, I've subscribed 👍 I love to go foraging for edible mushrooms, I love finding oysters, turkey tail, amethyst deceivers, parasols, penny buns, chanterelles, chicken of the woods and the beefsteak fungus 😋😋😋😋 you are an amazing man
I came here because im interested in becoming a mushie and i love that he shares soooo much
You are awesome bro! I was inspired to start growing medicinal mushrooms from a video of yours someone showed me. Thanks heaps!!!
Fascinating information and I now want to have a go at growing my own mushrooms. Thank you 🌹
I just discovered your channel while researching how to grow termite mushroom (a very rare medicinal mushroom) for my mom and I'm sooooo grateful for all the knowledge you're sharing with us. Thank you and have a fantastic harvest!
I literally watched this whole video in awe of how interested I am in mushrooms, about to go buy some shitake's right now.
Excellent program, very informative . I love mushrooms and look forward to autumn and the spontaneous appearance of mushrooms.
So interesting...I could listen to you all day long!!
dude, you're fascinating. also, beautiful hair. and mushrooms.
I love what you do, the philosophy you talk of and how freely you spread the info.
I've been thinking a lot about growing mushrooms in UK and this is a big inspiration.
This is one of the best mushroom videos I’ve ever seen. Absolutely fabulous. I wish I could just follow you around all day and get in your head.
I love this guy’s energy
I do eat one strain raw w lemon juice
I love the taste
The lemon juice lysonates the fungi spores
Laeteporus,sulphereus conifernicola,cincinatus
Free for the picking right now in MD state
(Vegan Chicken💯
I also batter and deep fry them
Delicious
Chckn noodle soup
And stir fry
if you put lemon its not raw anymore. acids are working the shroom so its kind of cooked xD like ceviche
I have to get up for work in 6 hours, I can't go down this rabbit hole right now, no matter how much I want to.
This is amazing. I didn't know anything about mushrooms. Thanks for sharing.
As a Horticulturalist.. and a mycologist... I want to say thank you sir for doing these videos. Amazing info. You're one top notch grower. Reading all the comments below am disappointed once again by dumb ass humans. Horticulture is more than growing weed. Mycology is more than just trippy mushrooms. We've all moved on from 6th grade. Catch up guys.
I grew up in Sao Paulo/Brazil, and Shiitake was a must in restaurants and grocery stores. It was weird not seeing them as much when I moved to NA.
Thank you for your awesome videos, it is really great to watch you sharing your knowledge.
Yeah in The States people look at Mushrooms with caution because there's this reputation of it being "poisonous" but noticing now people are eating more of it
Love watching his vids, seems like he is a nice guy and super knowledgeable! That yield is insane!
Best video I watched in years. Thank you.
I don't think he realizes how helpful this can be to some people, thank you for doing what you do, keep up the great work. It's inspiring to see a young individual so educated and interested in such a field, I can happily say that you were the sole reason I got into mushroom farming, it's been an amazing journey with you by my side. Just finished harvesting my second ever shiitake block today, thanks to your tips I've managed to increase the yield drastically!
i could listen to that snipping without commentary for ho u rs. but hearing tips is also noice (-w -)
Thank you for this insightful video.
Great Video, learned so much!
Does someone know where to get those giant tents for indoor growing?
8:00 that pause ;)
I absolutely love your videos. So much information and just an amazing operation. This many is the king of mushrooms, y'all. Congrats on your success, well deserved!
I'm so happy this guy does this here in my home town!! that's so baller!! I'm so proud.
There’s a lot of potential in psychedelics, I can’t wait to try any of them mushrooms specifically but it’s just so hard to find a reliable source over here, I’ll be glad if anyone can be of help
One of the most peaceful experience I've ever had..I really need to get my hands on some DMT
@@JuicyLife3
DMT is Earth shattering, literally.even after over a dozen mushroom trips ,it does me up. It is EXTREMELY powerful. everything I experienced was good, but when returning to this life and the way we live,I have become very disheartened with everything
@big stepper
The moment you started feeling this way you already having a bad trip..
Try not to think about it that way
@Jeffrey Hart
pls how do I find him?
Is it on IG?
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
why do i get the feeling he's dabbled with a golden teacher or two :p
So much good information. i learned alot and am getting inspired!
Thank you for the nutrition information on shrooms!
Very interesting to see how culture has changed, 25-30 years ago I was growing them on oak logs in northern Pennsylvania, I did it as part of a forestry management process to use cull logs to produce a product, a lot of work with logs, drills, and inoculation pumps. I had a line of restaurants that took everything I could grow. Back in the day ..
We're still growing on logs in the woods!
