I've learned so much from the videos. I've started my own liquid cultures. I've played with agar. I have started Lions Mane, Blue and Pink Oysters. You are an infinite well of knowledge. Thank you.

How do you make liquid culture? I can buy Petrie dish cultures, do you use them to make more liquid?

Mushroom Mike! 🍄 Thank you for sharing your expertise with the world. You are inspiring farmers across the world to take the plunge into urban mushrooms! You've inspired me to try and learn this trade. This is literally the best content I've ever seen.
I have picked up so many good detail watching this video. I was looking for an example of inoculating master's mix with Lion's Mane grain spawn, and here you are doing an amazing job. Also, I work in software and do some work our process improvement. You had many excellent examples of time saving, e.g., your 10 second sealer, the line. You have a lot to offer both in terms of mycology, as well as so-called (in the US) Lean production. Rock on!

Love the new merch! Inexplicably appreciative of your recent upload frequency, but no pressure. Thanks for continuing to pull the industry forward!!
I'm about to get my first flush off my first shiitake block, and it all started watching your channel.
Would you be so kind to disclose what impulse sealers you are using? We are struggling to find ones that produce a proper seal. That would be super helpful. Thanks for all the superb videos!
I love how your small talk is actually just loads of useful information that most people wouldnt even think about.....
thankyou for another awesome video. really dig learning from you!
Thank you. I appreciate you sharing the knowledge
Thanks for the upload, this is very informative!
Always a pleasure to watch the master ;)

your mushroom lab makes me more jealous than anything i have seen in any youtube video on any topic ever.
What brand of magnetic impulse sealer is that? I can't afford to buy another bad one.
Very interesting and great tips, thank you good sir

I have plenty of spawn but have only ever used a monotub for fruiting. I recently wanted to get into using the bags, they just seemed tidier but I had so many questions, especially given that I already have spawn so I am not starting with a bag grow. its been a challenge finding detailed information about this particular stage- This is EXACTLY what I needed to know. leaving air in the bags etc, everything

Those bags can really take a beating, literally
About how many 10lb substrate bags do you innoculate with each bag of captured grain spawn? About how much does your bag of spawn weigh? I am attempting to do a cost analysis based of costs in my area. Thanks for your videos, and just in general your outlook and willingness to share your knowledge.
Please do a video on grain prep!

Great information as always. I just started growing some Italian Oysters with wheat pellets. But want to switch to sawdust and sawdust loving mushrooms. Was wondering if you can store the sterilized substrate for when you plan to inoculate multiple blocks at once?
Can you make a video about the humidity and temperature in the mushroom room?
That's alot of seconds 😂

Hey I just had a bag of chestnut spawn and a grow kit of reishi come from southwest Msuhrooms! Firstly Thank you it all looks wonderful! I do have a question though, am I able to store the spawn in the fridge until my sterilizer comes in? Should be a few weeks out....
I sent you an email last week, Mike. Would be great to hear from you. Great video!

Hey Mike, what kinda air filtration, and sterilizers do you guys use most often?
Thank you for all your great videos! Do you have any thoughts or concerns about heating the substrate in plastic? Do you see it as a practical/business necessity, and compared to the good the mushrooms bring, the risk is worth it and besides, the bags are approved by the food authorities for the purpose? Is that a real concern, or must be seen more in perspective about all life risks? I appreciate your general take on things, this topic included. Thanks again! I'd hate to let my own reservations stop me, which I guess they do for all of us to some extent. I mean the purist in me says log-grown, or glass, or maybe pottery......but then it is really hard to work it as a business.
Can I use fully colonized substrate instead of grain spawn to Inoculate mire substrate ? I have no grain spawn anymore
Why can't one not directly inoculate supplemented sawdust with syringes? Thanks for your videos
Good afternoon, at what temperature do you recommend storing the bags with lion's mane?
09:40 - "Thats like... two. alot of seconds"
How many bags of bulk can you inoculate with one bag of grain spawn?
So how much grain spawn would you put in to 10lbs substrate bags?
how about you shake up the bags in a concrete mixer?
Used your set up and advice for a home grow and now harvesting a sea of Cubes and Semilanceata tomorrow 🤙🏻🍄

Besides grain prep he doesn't go over much of anything that has to do with how you grow those kinds.
Are these filters 5 7/8" deep? How long do these filter last? I'm trying to build a flow cabinet, but I don't want to use the 11.5" deep model. Does the depth really affect the life of the filter much?
Hello from Spain, first of all, congratulate you for all your great work, I wanted to ask you the model of the machine you have to seal the bags, I have already bought 3 machines and they do not seal the bags well, please help
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to inoculate without a flow hood?

I do mine in the bathroom. Not many porous surfaces there.
Hi. Can I do this one my own as 1 person? Will it work if I use my 3rd flush shiitake brick and I break it up into oak pellet bags? Can I do that without having to do sterilization etc like just pour boiling water onto the oak pellets, don't add any nutrition into a bag and add parts of the spent brick and close the bag and let it sit, will that be successful for me if I don't have a sterilizer and flow hood and I'm just 1 lady not a company? Thank you so much! I just want to keep my shiitake brick going because I love shiitake mushrooms they're so good and I want to have a lifetime supply every day. I like to make mushroom soup and eggs and cheese with shiitake, tomato and spinach.
Why add air to the bag? Is it alway necessary

My guess is he mix the substrate before putting it in the bags. I see many other growers adding sawdust, grains and water directly to the bags before mixing it.

Hello, it is very interesting video. I would like to ask you. Do the particle size distribution of the substrate influence the mycelium growth? Could you please let me know?
@orionishi6737

Yes it will, that's typically why people use those smaller grains for spawn. The more grains in your substrate the more contact points there are for mycelium to grab hold and start taking over.

Don't you get contamination issues with the limited hight of your laminar flow? Seems quite edgy when you innoculate the XLS bulk bags with your grains.

What would be the issue with contamination? Is it that the mycelium wouldn't grow, or that it could create a poisonous result?

No reason why you couldn't other than it's wasteful of your liquid culture, and colonization would take longer than it does on the more nutritious grain. By using grain spawn to inoculate the substrate, you are doing two things: *1.* You're supplementing the substrate with extra nutrients provided by the grain and, *2.* you're inoculating with 1000x more mycelium than what a squirt of LC would provide. The intermediate step of making grain spawn is going to give you a much faster turnover, and by ensuring rapid colonization of the substrate, you'll reduce contamination risk.
The real question is: Do you mist your hair in 70% alcohol? 🤔😏😬
