Are these Wine Cap? Looking at Wine Cap color.
Once the temperatures start warming up and the sun starts shining we see some variation in Wine Cap color as well as texture. While this can be alarming, all of the Wine Cap are certainly still good to eat! They difference is primarily when the caps start forming - there a big difference on whether the pins form on a nice cloudy humid day versus a warm sunny day.

Mushroom Minute: Why Your Mushroom Mix Matters

This mushroom minute is demonstrating why what you put into your substrate mix matters! Much like humans, mushrooms need certain nutrients to thrive. This video shows the difference between a supplemented and a non-supplemented sawdust block.
Tips for a Healthy Maitake Crop with Buried Blocks
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.Месяц назад
Over the past several years we've been working with ready-to-fruit blocks to create a fairly labor-free method to grow Hen of the Woods. These blocks are made with an outdoor-specific strain that takes advantage of the natural fruiting time for maitake. These buried blocks produce big clusters with the deeply flavorful woodsy signature you may be used to from foraged Hens. This video shares som...
Why are my oyster mushrooms shaped weird and/or discolored?
Просмотров 5532 месяца назад
Why are my oyster mushrooms shaped weird or malformed? Oyster mushrooms can have a different shape and color that expected when the growing conditions aren't quite right. Mushrooms release CO2, and when that Co2 is trapped, your oyster mushrooms might become wavy or cone shaped, as opposed to the shell shape we're used to seeing. Introducing more airflow will solve the problem! Oyster mushrooms...
Growing Mushrooms in a Greenhouse
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.3 месяца назад
What kind of mushrooms can you grow in a greenhouse? And how do you grow mushrooms in a greenhouse? While we've tried many different varieties of fungi, the only two that seem to regularly produce well are Almond Agaricus and Reishi mushrooms. You can try your hand at others, but most varieties of mushrooms need more drastic temperature and humidity swings to stimulate a crop. This method is a ...
Growing Reishi Indoors: Getting Your Caps to Conch
Просмотров 2,2 тыс.5 месяцев назад
While growing reishi in antler form from ready-to-fruit blocks is straight-forward, getting the caps to "conch", or fan out, requires some more attention. In order to get the caps to conch you'll want to create a space that has temperatures between 70° and 80°F, a humidity level greater than 75%, and at least ten hours of light a day. You can either create this environment in a small setting (t...
Mushroom Minute: Why do I need to inoculate all the way around the log and not just the top half?
Просмотров 7697 месяцев назад
From a gardener’s perspective it is easy to think that mushrooms will emerge from where you plant the mushroom spawn. While this can happen, typically mushrooms force their way out from weaknesses in the bark all the way around the log. But mushrooms won’t actually start growing until a log is fully colonized. Meaning the mycelium has worked its way through the entire log! Mycelium works it’s w...
A Quick Feature on Hericium americanum (aka Comb Tooth)

How much spawn do I need to plant a Wine Cap bed?
Просмотров 5 тыс.10 месяцев назад
We often get asked how much spawn you need to plant a wine cap bed. To answer this we planted 7 different Wine Cap plots each with different spawn rates to test the difference in time to initial fruiting. All 7 plots produced mushrooms within one year with the overarching conclusion being: if you want mushrooms faster, use more spawn. Find the Spawn: Wine Cap Sawdust Spawn: www.fieldforest.net/...

"Shocking" Shiitake Logs: What it Means to "Force-Fruit" Mushrooms

Oftentimes when you see a photo of shiitake logs LOADED with shiitake it's an indication that they were "shocked" or force-fruited. This is a great way to stimulate your mushrooms so you can receive a lot of mushrooms in a short period of time. However, you can't just do this with any mushroom log, so here are some guidelines as to when and how you would do it.

    Another thing is that you may see small worms inside your wine caps, despite the mushroom not being old. These are sciarid fly larvae, and they're a common agricultural pest for mushroom growers. You can still salvage the mushrooms by soaking them in a salt brine to kill the worms, then wash and cook them thoroughly. This is what mushroom foragers do with morels. It's not necessary to throw them out.

    I only add supplements in the winter when the colonization temps are cooler to avoid contamination, and I have a really nasty gluten allergy and I get realllly sick when exposed to gluten in the ppm range so I only use gluten free supplements, like the soy hulls. I think I got sick from handling grainspawn made from rye. I prefer the millet spawn best.

    The part about soaking the straw 24-72 hours before putting it in the bed should come up front if it's crucial to success. I soaked the straw for about an hour, then put everything together and covered the completed bed with a tarp for a couple of days to hopefully let the straw soak in water.

      They typically fruit for two seasons, but it's dependent on how large the first fruiting is. And the type of chips does not matter as the food for the fungi is all located within the sawdust block!

    Why would summer be a bad time? I would think that the tree has the most nutrient density in summer. It's it mostly for bark retention?

    • @FieldandForestProducts
      @FieldandForestProducts Месяц назад

      Bark retention is big part of it, but also because the wood is actually fairly nutrient depleted as all of the nutrients stored in the wood go into making new leaves and twigs in the spring so the tree needs the summer to restock nutrients from photosynthesis.

    • @entrepreneursfinest
      @entrepreneursfinest Месяц назад

      @@FieldandForestProducts I guess that makes sense. In the fall the trees draw everything back in to send to the roots so I can see that. The reason I was interested is because I travel for work and it seems I'm always gone during the spring and fall. I'm headed home in a couple weeks and will be there for about a month and I've got an entire fence row of trees up to 20" that I have to take down and didn't want them to go to waste.
