Hey what's goin on, just wanted to start a thread for some conversation about mushrooms.heres a couple recent pics. I'm using wild birdseed and spawning to bulk in monotubs with cvg.

Nice monos. I usually run some, I’m not at the moment. Beautiful canopies!

Truffles require a stone producing strain. I've grow Tampanensis. They're extremely easy to grow. Just prep grains noc it up and wait for about 4 months. Next harvest the stones, toss the rest into a tub with coir and wait for the fruits to pop up and harvest them. After that harvest the stones from the coir. They're generally bigger than the ones from jar.

To dry them I use a dehydrator

Exactly. It has to be a stone producing strain which there are a few of. The stones that I have grown have been Tampanesis and Atl7. Here's some of mine that I've grown I let them go for a while maybe A month or two and they came out real strong.

I want to move on from monotubs to bags But I need a flow hood, wondering if I can just use a FFU. Also wondering if it's better to just build one. Looking for something 24"×48". Anybody have any advice on this? I'm being very Indecisive on this because they're pretty expensive and don't want to spend the money until I know I'm getting the right thing.

I haven't tried bags yet but I'd like to. These are the only truffles I've grown and did them in tubs.

They r huge! How do they taste?
What substrate, temp, humidity did u have? How often did sprinkle water on it?

I don't use bags. I'm not a fan of 1x use containers so I use jars and tubs.
