@@Michael-lm6gl most mushrooms cultivated indoors can be eaten raw just fine! These were pioppino mushrooms!

@@davehanks7861 you can! Some varieties don't need the extra air, some do, so for these brief instructions we didn't include that option however on our website we detail fruiting methods that include modifying the bag and fruiting outside of the bag as well!

@@BoomingAcres thank you so much. It means a lot that you answer back in the comments. I had a feeling that it was just a brief rundown in the video. Still really good video. I really enjoy your guys's content.

​@@davehanks7861 thank you for the positivity! Always happy to help people with growing!

Not recommended, since you're adding something that isn't sterile to something that is sterile. Just like there's some contaminants that can survive alcohol, there are some that can survive peroxide, so it's best to just uncap your needles and use them straight away. As with a lot of things in life, they're fine until they're not. That's when the problems come up.

Happy to hear all of that! We'll have shirts available on the website very soon!

Happy to hear that our bags do better than Uncle Bens! Better results for sure!

@@BoomingAcres there is a lot more that can go "wrong" with Uncle Bens or any other method. The bags take any guesswork out. I turned my first 5 liquid culture syringes into 5 jars of culture so my only cost per grow now is the all in one bag.

dark.

Some varieties need more air than others, a lot of the time the air filter provides enough general air exchange for mushrooms to grow well.

@@BoomingAcres for golden teacher species should I cut a small opening or let pins start to form first? Also, should I had direct 12/12 lighting before pinning or after. Thank you very much for your help!

Appreciate that, looking forward to sending your orders out!

Just totally normal mushroom production facility things!

Correct, this is the second step, you have to let the bag recolonize before introducing to fruiting conditions.

@@BoomingAcres thanks bro I think I get the jist of what the process is. I just recieved my spores and am waiting for the two 5 lb booming acres bags

Our 5lb All In Ones typically produce 3-4 ounces of dry material.

You would wait until 100% colonization before modifying the bag to fruit. We recommend not modifying your bag for at least 2 weeks after full colonization to see if fruits grow without modifications. Once you modify the bag you can't unmodify it, so that's why we recommend just letting things be for a bit to see if the variety you're growing is able to fruit in the internal conditions before moving onto another fruiting method.

@@BoomingAcres thank you so much for the reply! I have one more question if that's okay. After injecting the bag, can I sterilize the needle with a flame, keep it capped for a couple of days, and then inject it into another bag? I only used 5ml out of the 10 and bought another bag from you guys but it isn't coming for a few more days.

@@smurfdaddy420 We recommend using a new needle when doing inoculations on different days just to be sure there's no contamination possible. We sell extra syringe tips (needles) on our website :)

@@BoomingAcres thanks for the help, ill be purchasing some needles just to be safe. i really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. im gonna leave the needle capped on the syringe for now and replace it when the new ones arrive

With the bag being a sealed container itself, it's not necessary to keep it inside of another box if the conditions in your closet are fairly clean and the temperature is appropriate. A SAB is not going to have cleaner air than your closet if it's also sitting in your closet, it's not a sterile air box, it's a still air box and just helpful for reducing contamination when working with cultures or inoculations. Good luck with the project, if you ever want to come by for a visit let us know!

We don't include spores or liquid cultures :)

If you're working in a space with little to no air flow, once you flame sterilize the needle there won't be mold spores or bacteria flying around. It's best practice to not touch things that are sterile with something that might be, so even if using a new alcohol pad it's best not to touch the needle with anything. Some mold spores (namely trichoderma) are not effected by alcohol, so if there's some in the factory environment where the pads are being made, if they're in the packaging they can get onto the needle.

@@GiovanaSimmer at least you know these things now!

@@sethyoung3573 oh 100%! He was actually a customer who came in to pick up an order, then sent an email asking if we were hiring and we were about to be so he got the job before we even posted about it! He's become a major part of our team!

@@alexissixela6914 happy to be compared to them! Hopefully when we've been doing this for 5+ years we'll be in the same position they are. We've had the tent shown in this video for about 2 months now 🙃🙃

That's awesome, happy to hear that we've been helpful! After you get your first flush, set your project back how it was and wait for the next flush! We have a section on subsequent flushes on our website in the instructional section.

We aim for mid to high 60's, 90% RH, and around 800ppm CO2.

That's certainly an option!

Yes, we'll have videos soon covering all the different methods for fruiting AIO's to go along with our picture guide and harvesting videos!

Thank you!!

@@Gorto68 if you have a humidifier with a tube, aim it upwards to prevent dripping. If you're getting drips from your shelving or blocks, you can lower your humidity slightly, and add a tray to catch the drops. Plant 1020 trays work well for this.

@@BoomingAcres fantastic thank you for that tip.

Send us an email at Help@BoomingAcres.com and we can try to figure out what's going on :)

Haha, we help a lot of folks so we had a bit of help hearing from people regarding what they're doing wrong!

The only genetics we offer in house is our gourmet line, on our website we offer our gourmet all in one bags with the option to include genetic material alongside it.

A few percent is going to be something that's different from one batch to the next, as well as a factor involving conditions and the field grown in, and obviously the genetics being used. I know from using water from the cooks the agar made with popcorn vs feed corn the feed corn agar always grew notably faster than the popcorn water, also the feed corn is more sweet when checking if it's done vs popcorn. I'm sure when they're making high fructose corn syrup they're using popcorn though for those couple extra percentage points of carbs! A quick google 'field corn carbohydrates' brings up a result stating a half cup of field corn has 15g carbohydrates, 'sweet corn carbohydrate' brings up a full cup is 29g carbohydrates.

@@BoomingAcres Whatever. Not the results I found but as with most things, your mileage may vary. The carbs are very close.

We alternate depending on if we have a lapse between inventory for our custom made bags. No bag we send out is more than a week old, if you ordered from Amazon there's a card that tells you the date the bag was made on, but even from Amazon our inventory is never more than 3 weeks old because it sells so quickly. I assure you the bag you received is plenty fresh 😊

@@BoomingAcres well thank you for the reply Didn't get a reply in my Amazon account so at least I got one here thank you for that My grow is going good so far One month in. 🤞

Not folding the bag does not guarantee failure, it just lets moisture leave the bag faster than if you do fold it. Depending on how long your project takes, this can cause it to dry out a lot over time.

@@BoomingAcres thank you

Hey, just thought I'd let you guys know that my grain bags did BEAUTIFULLY AND I WILL BE COMING BACK FOR MORE AND TO TRY OUT YOUR ALL IN ONE BAGS THNX

That's great to hear! If you're growing on manure and compost, you're going to need to look up a guide on how to correctly process it for substrate or your project will fail. Using actual manure and compost has a lot of downsides especially for a new grower, the methodology for processing it for mushroom substrate can be confusing and has a lot of variables. That's one of the reasons we recommend just buying our premade materials, it takes out a lot of the variables, guess work, and risks. We know we do everything right and we do this stuff every day so using our products the whole way through your first few projects will help you get some success under your belt and get some understanding of how things work before making things all yourself. Hope that helps!

@@BoomingAcres so what product would you recommend to add my 3 lb bag of millet to? And do I have time?
