This is exactly what I was looking for when I started searching ways of growing mushrooms, rather than the very scientific sterile and controlled environment. Thanks!
I love the production quality of this! And the simple straightforward presentation. No waffling, no messing around, just info and practical demonstrations with eyecatching editing. Superbe work
You people just made a new convert. I found all the growing mushroom indoors intimidating (I did not quite "get" why I had to disinfect everything when Mushrooms have been growing in messy nature for many millions of years.) So growing in the garden is right up my alley. And y'all did a great job of explaining it all.Thank you.
I can explain. Mushrooms let off billions of spores. The mushrooms play the odds that the spore will find a place where they can out compete bacteria and other fungi. In your house you want mushrooms to colonize the substrate everytime. When you already have a lot nice healthy mycelium contamination is less likely and your mushrooms can take over.
Such an underrated video. So simple and to the point, plus it shows you how to just throw some spawn around and let nature do the rest! Absolutely love it. Thank you x
You're all cool. Like you're the hippies of your generation. How cool is that! Good choice of music too. Really insightful and friggin fun video. Thank you.
@@NorthSpore I do have a question : I live in zone 7b (about) so when would be the best time to start a new Mushroom patch? my last frost date is April 15th, can I build my bed before that date?
@North Spore I haven't grasped the sun requirements and heat tolerance of growing fungi. I'm in southern California, zone 10b I believe. The summers can be brutal. But I do have growing space which sees only indirect sunlight year round. I'd love to become one of your customers.
I have been harvesting wild mushrooms for quite a few years, medicinal & edible. Love them so much. This year, I 've just started growing mushrooms, plus taking an online mushroom growing course, doing a lot of reading & watching of videos. I was already excited, but after watching this video, I'm super stoked. This is most definitely going to turn into a community business in the small area I live in, as well as provide me with food while doing something I absolutely love. Thanks so much for the video. I am starting with wood chips but will be buying straw bales next week. Can't wait to get all the different growing mediums going at once! Love the laundry basket idea as well. Super cheap & available at the dollar store!
Thank you! This is the video that led me to giving mushrooms in the garden a try. Right now every one of my tomato plants has a bunch of Almond Agaricus growing under them. They really popped up after our recent rain. Fingers are still crossed for the Wine Caps and the Shiitake. Never thought this would work in El Paso Texas.
That is so great to hear! Growing mushrooms in the garden is the best! You have the climate for those heat loving almonds, when weather cools a bit, you should expect to see some growth from your wine caps and shiitakes!
I appreciate you telling us the full story. Well you know, newbies like me need to see a start-to-finish video or elses I get confused about the details.
@@taxigirl5637 taxi girl! Good one man, never would have crossed my mind, 😔 it's so sad what this world is doing to its self, America is the best country in the world, we need to fix our food and health practices big time
I used newspaper and cardboard underneath wood chips and compost for years, but within a couple years of gardening as a business, I found that the layers of paper either were quickly eaten by worms, or in the absence of worms they did not decompose easily and stopped water and roots from penetrating the soil. 2 inches or more of mulch will stop all but large seeds. 6 inches or more of compost or a foot of leaves will grow monster vegetables. Wood chips on paths are slow to decompose and stop smaller-seeded weeds until they do.
Also, an interesting side note is that if you put the cut mushrooms in the sun with the gill side up for a day that they will load up full of Vitamin D. It is a different version than D3 and the body doesn't use it quite as well they say, but none the less...hopefully you found it an interesting fact.
Sí, cert jo tampoc ho hauria associat, però es una idea meravellosa, i els botets fets al sol com vosté diu, son molt rics en vitamina D, una reravellosa idea per portar a l'hort la propera primavera.
I've ordered from yourselves and several other local spawn providers in the US, all great; but your informationals are top of the food chain. Thanks for the infotainment!
I never thought of mixing mushrooms with vegs, always wanted to try growing mushrooms but don't have space for it... Now I do! TYVM guys for this awesome vid 🖖
@@NorthSpore thanks for asking. My family and I life in Nelspruit Mpumalanga South Africa 🇿🇦 I started with a no dig no till urban farm in June of this year, this was the beginning of our winter. I managed to set up 47 compost bed with woodchip walkways. Next is mushrooms and layer hens.
@@NorthSpore yes there is spore suppliers in our country and I am wanting to get some wine caps from them. Just one question, we are going into our second month of spring, would it be okay to put out spores now?
Today I decided to go and grow mushrooms in our gardenplot. I knew some information already but after seeing this amazing video, I'm even more exited about doing so! Love the video!
My dad raised a 10 acre garden in the deep rural country of Arkansas in the early 70's ..i was a teenager then.. I'm 60 now and tired of the city time to retire . I've waited and waited for years to garden again . 1st thing I noticed on your video was how good a dirt you got. Felt for sure y'all knew your stuff.. Great tips and little things I noticed ..how hard you packed the straw... Crumbling the spawn.. Made me think as a kid broadcasting purplehulls ... Thanks I'm gonna enjoy your channel
Great video! I purchased wine caps from you 2 years ago. They are so tasty. We had a flush of them about 2 wks ago when it rained last here in NH. Hoping for rain this week. *rain dances*
sometimes first fruiting takes some years i guess i wonder about the ROI, and harvest amount in kg per kg straw if just spreading on the garden bed or like on the clip
OMG... You have sparked my interest for my little home garden project. I am in the process of planting trees and other things. Now you have me wanting to make mulch beds with much rooms under my 3 weeping willows.
well I have to work my ass off in a non fulfilling, low paying job just to pay my bills and for a couple years I think of nothing else but one day quiting that soul sucking job and having a warehouse for growing mushrooms indoor and supplying the hotels and restaurants in my area. hopefully one day.
Fantastic content - thank you. I'm just about to start growing King Stopheria on a patch of waste land at the side of my house. I've had help from a mushroom growing group on FB - a great community to be part of.
Hi. I paint. While I do it there's is so much the I can learn just by listening to you guys. Love to see young people so intelligent and hard working. Keep it up and thanks for sharing
This is excellent. Very easy to follow, I know how to identify oyster, wine caps here in natural NZ, the oyster pop up on dead cabbage trees, but now I can have these in my garden! Much aroha from NZ XXX
Excellent explanation on how to get started for growing mushrooms! Very well explained and hands on visuals to show the process. Simple yet very effective. I subscribed to your channel and I can’t wait to start growing mushrooms in my garden! 😊
Olive oil + garlic sautéed mushrooms - can't ever grow tired of that. I will now learn about foraging the spawning stuff in the bag. Thanks very much for the video. I have full on mojo going, baby, yeah!
Great video! A lot of details for rookies like me. I always thought mushrooms need to be in super controlled environment. Never thought it could be grown like that outside. Definitely going to try it next spring!
Ideal conditions still need to be achieved but nature is very forgiving when it comes to that unless you are in a particularly specific climate. Even then, a little extra effort usually yields most easy to grow species no problem.
Thank you so much for this information!! Growing indoors in a sterile environment is really not something that I can do easily for a number of reasons, I am so happy to know about these other options. Love your channel, I am subscribed!!! 😊
I am very impressed with innovative methods to produce foods. Young people often show their talents in many field, very innovative and I am very graceful for the contributions. Thank you.
I love these ideas. Im trying to establish a food forest and that means a lot of mulching. Ive always wondered if you could grow mushrooms in that mulch. So cool! Until then i think its too hot and dry in my region.
They'll grow UNDER your veggies especially with drip line watering. I have woodchips in my walkways and have wild mushrooms come in and grow on the edges under my brussel sprouts. No idea what kind of mushroom but they're there. And it's been high 70s to mid 90s all summer.
Psychedelics saved me from years of uncontrollable depression, anxiety and illicit pill addiction. Imagine carrying heavy chains for over a decade and then all of a sudden that burden is gone. Believe it or not in a couple years they'll be all over for treatment of mental health related issues.
This video made my day! I know what im doing with my footpaths in my garden now! My beds are homemade compost/cardboard/straw and im about to plant them. Im definitely gonna use your method for the footpaths in between. Do you sell spawn for this? Also I'd greatly appreciate it if you made a video on how to innoculate compost piles. It is something I've been wanting to learn for a while now and cant find content on the matter. A tip for gardeners: you can pre soak the cardboard before you lay it down with plain water or compost tea works great! North spore you definitely have me as a subscriber now and I'm glad I found you! ✌&❤ from Aromas California...😊🍄
TH-cam just suggested me this now out of nowhere. Ive only ever ate white button mushroom but really love it. The video made me want to grow these things now its so easy. Im already a vegetable gardener & love plants. Today, TH-cam did good ;)
This video made me feel better about your wine cap spores that my husband & I laid out late spring which haven’t really done anything yet 😅 So far we’ve harvested maybe 5 mushrooms & I was starting to worry if that was it 😓 ~ from Pennsylvania
Super cool, I love what you guys are doing, love the idea, I hope I can do some of what you are doing with local stuff, or maybe import some of your spores than can handle the tropical weather to the Dominican Republic.
Many people in Russia directly inoculate rare mushrooms with fermenting spores in the soil of their gardens. But this video also taught us another way, which is great! Thank you, textbooks on agricultural biochemistry ang molecular biology,
Really excellent information here. I do have mushrooms pop up next to my organic compost, recently some big edible ones that must of came with my mushroom compost that was mixed with coffee grounds. May give this a go soon. Thanks Marty
this is amazing. I'm building a new veggie bed and was looking into adding mushrooms to the garden. We had button mushrooms in my childhood home. So I'm excite dto try some of these.
No, though there is certainly the possibility. It's why we emphasize the importance of knowing how to identify the species you're trying to cultivate. We did have some inky cap Coprinus mushrooms growing in our garden over the summer. They can be poisonous if consumed alongside alcohol, but they look nothing like any of the species we were cultivating! The same holds true with cultivating plants- there is always the potential something poisonous will become a weed and grow in your garden, but you probably won't confuse it with your cucumbers!
also! the Inky Caps aren't deadly poisonous when consumed with alcohol, but they will make you vomit! They produce the same compound used in drugs to treat alcoholism
Excellent overview. Best I have seen so far, coming from aspiring mushroom gardener in the Pacific NW, but professional microbiologist who studied Mycology, Botany and more as an Undergrad, Industrial Microbiology in Masters, PhD in Mol Bio and lifetime career of cancer biology.
Incredible video! I love how all this information is available freely online 💕 do you have any videos of tours of your gardens with established mushrooms? 🤩
Thank you so much. Awesome video!! I love to eat mushroom..I love your presentation.I will try that. May our good Lord bless everyone of you..God bless.😀💖🙏
I used a couple of rotten logs scraped some of it, add micelius and then add again the scraped rotten wood and some leaves from my trees you thing that will work. On some I add a little bit of soil also.
This was a great video. I believe I will be attempting some new companion planting. My first thoughts about the pathways were concern about trampling most of the fruiting spawn. How well did the paths fruit? Any future videos about cooking and preparing your harvest? You guys put together a nice video. Thanks for sharing.
The Wine Caps in the paths are still bumping. We've gotten a ton of Wine Caps from them. It seems like they choose to grow along the paths edges where they get a little more shade from the plants. The foot traffic on the paths doesn't disturb the mycelium much, but you definitely have to watch where you step when they are growing!
Thank you so much for this video. Amazing ideas and I loved seeing the results. I would like to proffer an idea. I have found that when mulching young trees, especially transplants, it is best to form the mulch into a ring. Don't short the interior on depth mind you. But the ring, especially at the drip line of little trees, helps to channel and retain moisture directly over the roots. It also makes it very easy to add a weeper hose or drip line ring for easy watering in drier climates. I am so going to try your ideas out.
Try to find your shadiest place, keep your mushroom substrate hydrated by watering frequently, and choose species that do well in warmer climates (pink oysters or Italian oysters are great options)
I’m also in Zone 9 and thought it would not be possible to grow mushrooms here, but this summer I noticed several varieties pop up in different shade areas. The base of a peach tree played host to a giant yellow plate-like mushroom of some kind that was as big as a dinner plate. So now I want to try to grow something I will recognize and be able to eat! Thanks, great video!
Fantastic Video. Very good for beginners and veterans like me. I definitely gonna try to enoculate some of the garden beds now. Thanks for the inspiration. 👍
This is exactly what I was looking for when I started searching ways of growing mushrooms, rather than the very scientific sterile and controlled environment. Thanks!

Is the sterile medium more for growing indoors or is sterility even necessary?

Really excellent information here. I do have mushrooms pop up next to my organic compost, recently some big edible ones that must of came with my mushroom compost that was mixed with coffee grounds. May give this a go soon.
Thanks
Marty
Sounds great! Let us know how it goes!
this is amazing. I'm building a new veggie bed and was looking into adding mushrooms to the garden. We had button mushrooms in my childhood home. So I'm excite dto try some of these.
This is a great idea! Have you all ever notice any poisonous, look-alike shrooms growing amongst what you’ve inoculated?
No, though there is certainly the possibility. It's why we emphasize the importance of knowing how to identify the species you're trying to cultivate. We did have some inky cap Coprinus mushrooms growing in our garden over the summer. They can be poisonous if consumed alongside alcohol, but they look nothing like any of the species we were cultivating! The same holds true with cultivating plants- there is always the potential something poisonous will become a weed and grow in your garden, but you probably won't confuse it with your cucumbers!
also! the Inky Caps aren't deadly poisonous when consumed with alcohol, but they will make you vomit! They produce the same compound used in drugs to treat alcoholism
Excellent overview.
Best I have seen so far, coming from aspiring mushroom gardener in the Pacific NW, but professional microbiologist who studied Mycology, Botany and more as an Undergrad, Industrial Microbiology in Masters, PhD in Mol Bio and lifetime career of cancer biology.
Incredible video! I love how all this information is available freely online 💕 do you have any videos of tours of your gardens with established mushrooms? 🤩
Thank you! Check out our other videos here:northspore.com/pages/videos

Thank you so much. Awesome video!!
I love to eat mushroom..I love your presentation.I will try that.
May our good Lord bless everyone of you..God bless.😀💖🙏
You are so welcome!
I used a couple of rotten logs scraped some of it, add micelius and then add again the scraped rotten wood and some leaves from my trees you thing that will work. On some I add a little bit of soil also.
By micelium, I'm guessing you mean spawn. If that was added to a woody substrate, even if it isn't ideal, it could totally work!
I think I’m going to cry. So beautiful...
are you going to try your own mushroom garden?
Excellent content & super informative. Can't wait for more of these.
More to come! Thank you for watching!
This was great! And I’m so happy to see you’re in Maine too 😊 Thank you for sharing!
Dude! i can't wait to do this!!! This is amazing!!! thank you for the information!
Any time! We're here to help if you have any further questions!
Amazing video! Clear, straightforward. Also loved seeing how the mushrooms grown at the end.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@NorthSpore since you guys don't ship to Europe, I was wondering maybe you could recommend a good company to buy from?
Awesome video, awesome team!
Thanks for sharing so valuable information ❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love how a couple generations of skate videographers have resulted in dope radical mycology/horticultural tutorials.
Our content is always evolving!
This was a great video. I believe I will be attempting some new companion planting. My first thoughts about the pathways were concern about trampling most of the fruiting spawn. How well did the paths fruit? Any future videos about cooking and preparing your harvest? You guys put together a nice video. Thanks for sharing.
The Wine Caps in the paths are still bumping. We've gotten a ton of Wine Caps from them. It seems like they choose to grow along the paths edges where they get a little more shade from the plants. The foot traffic on the paths doesn't disturb the mycelium much, but you definitely have to watch where you step when they are growing!
I have wanted to start a mushroom garden for years. This is the best "how to" video. Thanks North Spore!!
Glad it was helpful!
Lovely video! Live in the Southwest part of Norway. This got me all excitet :D Much love
Thank you so mush!
Thanks for introducing this easy, stress-free and inexpensive way of growing mushrooms.
No problem, reach out with questions anytime!
Awesome, just starting my mycelium adventure!
Reach out with questions anytime!
You guys are the BEST In Video (BIV).
It's My birthday today! Excited for the video
Happy birthday! Let us know what you think!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
@@NorthSpore I loved it! It was helpful for my plans for my mushroom garden. I am so excited to start it!
Thank you so much for this video. Amazing ideas and I loved seeing the results. I would like to proffer an idea. I have found that when mulching young trees, especially transplants, it is best to form the mulch into a ring. Don't short the interior on depth mind you. But the ring, especially at the drip line of little trees, helps to channel and retain moisture directly over the roots. It also makes it very easy to add a weeper hose or drip line ring for easy watering in drier climates. I am so going to try your ideas out.
wow! that's what I was looking for
I wonder what I have to do so it will grow in zone 9 (other than guaranteeing proper hydration)
Try to find your shadiest place, keep your mushroom substrate hydrated by watering frequently, and choose species that do well in warmer climates (pink oysters or Italian oysters are great options)
I’m also in Zone 9 and thought it would not be possible to grow mushrooms here, but this summer I noticed several varieties pop up in different shade areas. The base of a peach tree played host to a giant yellow plate-like mushroom of some kind that was as big as a dinner plate. So now I want to try to grow something I will recognize and be able to eat! Thanks, great video!
Fantastic Video. Very good for beginners and veterans like me. I definitely gonna try to enoculate some of the garden beds now. Thanks for the inspiration. 👍
Glad it was helpful! We're here to answer your questions along the way as well!
