My friends indoor farm should produce about 400Kg next week, and is on the way to doing about a tonne per week, with 4 FT staff and a few PT, is full on and tough going, but rewarding. And that's nowhere near enough to fulfill the orders coming in.
On the Bubba‘s Barrels website they say, the barrels are not intended for use with grainspawn, could you comment on that? And: don’t you use the barrel also for your grain? Thanks so much for all the content you give away! 🙏🏻❤️🍄
this is correct - it works for bulk because it has a lower contaminant load and the block can be colonized quickly from grain spawn. Grains need to be sterilized though so they require an autoclave or pressure cookers
Hey, Gary. I'm curious how consistent one can be with the process from cloning to market. The timelines I find online are a little vague; especially for lion's mane. Fortunately it has a decent shelf life but I don't want consumers to get the shaft on that end if I can help it. Is it best to wait the longest suggested times in every case or can that drastically reduce yield if the substrate colonizes at the early end of the cycle for instance? Aside from cloning, are there ways to help the processes effectively take the maximum times to ensure consistency? P. S. Congrats on the new place!
I'd love more videos like this. How long do you think sterilized substrate can sit in a bag before it dries out or starts growing something unintentional before inoculation?
thanks! if done correctly, you should be able to keep a back stock indefinitely as long as it is sealed and sterile. I have not tested this but in theory it would work - our bottleneck is space though so this doesn't make sense logistically
Where do you get your boxes for the farmers market? They look like a good size and I need to find some as I have a market I'll be selling to soon and have little Idea on how to package my goods.
I saw a video where they used a chest freezer with a temp monitor so the monitor would turn it on and off to keep it at fridge temps. They used it to store lots of colonized bulk bags so they could pull them out as needed and put them in the grow room. I've never done it but seems smart to me
I really hope your channel blows up and enables you to grow your business to bigger things.
Thank you for the Weekend Warrior Schedule! This is perfect for me and my family. This is starting tomorrow.

Very good 😎

And this is all in that grow guide on Etsy or is it a workshop I can take?
Both - I have a small section in the EBook on order but the class goes through each process step by step
Ayyyy first to view the videooooo
Not quite
What brand stainless steel tables are you using Gary?
amzn.to/3TNv8mQ I like these - if you can find one that is a little deeper for the flow hood it helps give more space for inoculations
@@FreshfromtheFarmFungi much appreciated brother I highly appreciate it.
😎nice🔥
Do you have a paper book version of your ebook to purchase?
no just the Ebook for now until I raise enough to do a second edition in print
I can’t seem to get my stuff to follow MY schedule. I’ll space them out a week but they always overlap.
adjust the spawn levels

Thanks! I’ll try that. I don’t have enough that it really makes a difference, but it sure would be more convenient! Lol Thanks again!
does your wife work with you full time now or does she have a different job?
she works full time at the farm, she had a job until this year but it made more sense for her to join now that we have grown
You should change your name to Fresh from the farm Boofing
Have you tried seeing a doctor about your mental illness?
Thank u for all your teachings, Growing to Market Master next week ✨🍄📈 @fl_mushrooms
Thank YOU!!!
