This is awesome man. Excellent work!
Your farm is amazing and a huge inspiration. That's what it is! Thank you for this video my brother, doing exactly what you've done there is a goal of mine as well. Excellent work!
Thanks for the kind words!
I can't stop watching your videos! Your farm is amazing as well as your honesty about everything! You made me re-think my business plan with what you said about knowing your market! It all made sense! Thank you!
Thanks so much for the tour and sharing Justin! I’m going to be reaching out to you next week. Brilliant work - I know a lot of thought and hard work has gone into this process
appreciate the tour! We are a small farm in Florida with two separate facilities, much like yours.
Great work! Shout out from a noreegian mushroom farmer. With love
Awesome set up man!
Well done!
Do you ever exchange the air in your incubation room?
Appreciate what you do... Please can you make a video on how you build you pasturizer. Power supply consumption etc
can you please explain the pasteurization troughs? i see the pressure cookers and the autoclave, but i did not understand what you are doing with the troughs.
do you no soak no boil grain bags before autoclaving them? wish you the best btw man
We do 12-24 soak and the autoclave for 3hrs at 15psi
what size are your tents? 8x8?
Merci pour l'idée
Une question : quels sont les risques santé de vivre dans une maison avec plusieurs appareils connectés sachant que chacun d'eux émet des ondes radios. Merci
What all strains you doing bro, I'm out here in So Cal too....riverside in the house 🏡 😆...lmk I wanna start up my own out here. Plus recently a neighbor of mine....his ma just found out she's got cancer.....so it's pushing me to grow
We’re growing over 11 strains on rotation! You definitely should start a farm. There should be at least one in every city.
@@longbeachmushrooms YES, yes there should be. I'm trying to start one up fam but it's not easy doing that and taking care of 3 kids and a wife who has lupus. I'm not giving up though bro....mush love on the responding back. Stay upo
Do you clean the humidifier duct tube? I have a single grow tent myself and have been scared that mold can build up on the inside of it. I am starting to soak my tube in bleach water just to be safe. What are your thoughts on this part of the tent?
We don’t clean our ducts. We just replace them every 3-6 months, sometimes longer, when the build up is noticeably bad.
Flexible ducting is cheap and cleaning will end up costing more in labor/time than it is worth.
@@longbeachmushrooms ahh okay. I'll add replacing to my options. Thank you for the tips and information.
what size tent do you use?
We use 8x8x7’6”
What is dimensions for the grow tent?
We do 8x8x7’6”
Great video! Love the little things like the mirror to keep an eye on your hoppers.
Im starting up a small mushroom farm in my apartment in Canada, so i always love seeing how small scale farms approach things.
Im working with Lions Mane and oysters and ive been thinking about going with larger grow bags to cut down on how many bags id need to work with, like maybe 25-30 lbs per bag using uline 2-3 mil bags and using cap filters. Kind of like a column grow but laying the bags on their side for fruiting. Can you think of any issues that might arise with using larger grow bags, other than throwing out your back.. xD
Thanks!
Depends what kind of substrate you’re thinking about using. If it’s sawdust, I can see those columns getting extremely heavy. Another thing to think about is the mass of the grow tube because that’ll affect the internal temp conditions.
But it would probably save tons on labor!
@@longbeachmushrooms I'm hoping to get up to 100 lbs a week. At that point it would be worth doing this full time. So yeah 16 30lb bags vs 100 5lb ones... But baby steps. Working on my first large scale deep pasteurizer with a 55 gal plastic drum and 3000 watt heater. Struggling to get it over 140F though... That was with an empty tank and about 8 inches of water, so maybe once the volume filled with mushroom bags it'll have an easier time reaching temp?
@@HavokBWR definitely running it full will help hold temp. A little insulation will go a long way too. We do 12lb blocks here. Maybe a good middle ground for ya.
@@longbeachmushrooms btw what mixer is that? Was it custom, are there plans available?
@@XxFuzzballsxX the bagger? I got it from man-o-war through mushroom media online
