      What a great comparison! The Bob Ross of mushrooms. :-) The calming conversation with the audience… the peaceful, Zen energy… the casual style… the knowledge of his craft… how he teaches and makes it seem doable for the average person… and, yes, the big hair. True, it is such a pleasure to watch and listen to him.

    Love watching your videos! Some of the healthiest cultivated mushrooms I have ever seen. Definitely inspires me to grow more, and better. Oyster is all I've really grown but I would LOVE to learn Shitake, but other growers have made them sound so fussy and difficult to grow. You give me hope. Keep up the good work and keep making the videos. Definitely binge worthy!

    Hi from Great Britain. Have you tried placing diamond glass in front of lights to spread a rainbow spectrum on to the grow area . Maybe a one off experiment on a one bag away from main growing shade the light so it shines only through the glass type diamond also collect rain in a oak used wine barrel and only use that on that grow experiment . Utilising natures source by this method . Remember when it rains it's charges have not earthed so as it touches the natural mushroom all the charges of static in the rain are tingling through

    • @Awyzard
      @Awyzard 3 роки тому

      Pretty sure you could, but you wouldn't want to. The subsequent flushes reduce in yield partially because the nutrients are consumed by the mycelium and used in making mushrooms. The block itself would not have very much nutrition left, so if you did this and got it to fully colonize, you wouldn't get very many mushrooms from it.

    Hey I live in ny in the bronx in a shelter right now...I'd like to get into mushroom farming I love eating mushrooms and I want to not only grow for myself but I'd like to start a side hustle that eventually turns into a full blown business....any suggestions on how to start on a super low budget?
