      @@leomadero562 Same. My mother's two cats were 'smart' and could follow basic commands, 'sit, come here, wait, no,' etc; they didn't knock things over, scratch furniture etc, because we spent a bit of time and effort when they were young; you don't have to punish them either, they soon know its not good to hear, '[name] no!', because whatever they did or nearly did will not be acceptable, then you let them figure it out. But if you don't get to them early enough its just dumb luck whether they switch on. It's slightly different from 'dog' training, but it does work. Incidentally, even though they were friendly and approachable, if anyone was being a bit 'aggressive' near my mother both cats would respond against the aggressor, it was really obvious what they meant, people soon back off when a hissing/singing cat(s) gives them a warning. I have no doubt they would have made a mess of anyone stupid enough to have been physical against her. They were fine with me, but treated my sister as if she didn't exist (see, smart, good judge of character) ;-)

    Hey Cody! I'm a Chef, and I have a couple of tips for you when sauteeing your oyster mushrooms. First, you don't need scissors, you can pull them apart with your fingers, just follow the grain of the mushroom, they come apart very easily. Secondly, heat your oil first before putting the mushrooms in, the outside cooks instantly creating a barrier and preventing them from becoming greasy. Lastly, always season mushrooms at the end of cooking not the beginning. Salting them early can make them shrivel a lot more. I hope this helps! Great video!

    The part(s) on the Lion's mane bag that didn't colonize was probably a bacterial contamination. I've had that happen before where the more established mushroom colony kind of isolates a contamination colony. If it's around 80 percent colonized with the mushroom you want you can more than likely save it. Just flake off the bad part until you start getting into the mushroom mycelium and pour hydrogen peroxide on it to kill off any lingering bacteria. Then reincubate for a couple more days. Mushrooms seem to like H2O2. I've soaked samples I took of wild mushrooms to clone in up to 6% peroxide before with no real negative effects. Mushrooms are pretty hearty once they're well established.
    The Lions mane jar that got contaminated was a total loss haha. I've had colonies that far gone which I've tried to salvage and it's just not worth it.
    The oysters look great.
    If you're looking to make a more permanent fruiting chamber, I use a mini greenhouse with an ultrasonic humidifier hooked up to a timer. I like to do 30 minutes every 4 hours with my humidifier set to medium output. Obviously your mileage will vary.
    I'm very excited you're starting to do stuff with mushrooms. I've been following your channel for years and this is my favorite thing you've done so far.

      @a52productions 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Sorry for the reply to an old post, but I'm curious -- why are mushroom colonies so susceptible to bacterial infection? Both would be present in high amounts in nutrient-rich areas in the real world, so it seems strange that they fight each other so much instead of getting along. And if bacteria is such an issue for early mushroom colonies, how do mushrooms survive/reproduce in nature?

    • @randomergy683
      @randomergy683 3 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      @@a52productions In the wild, mushrooms are growing along with countless good and bad bacteria, yeasts, molds, fungi, insects, etc. And while it certainly affects the growth. With so many organisms competing for resources, it actually makes it easier for mushrooms to grow if they start to become a more established colony. The good microorganisms keep the bad in check. There's a reason mushrooms put off millions of spores to reproduce. Because only a handful become established enough to mature into a colony capable of producing fruiting bodies.
      But when growing mushrooms or anything in a lab setting, before you inoculate your growth medium you sterilize it so there are absolutely no microorganisms to compete for resources and to eliminate variables. But sometimes no matter how careful you are, a few bacteria or mold spores, or yeasts can survive the sterilization process, or they can hitch a ride during the inoculation step. With every other microorganism gone which would normally keep their numbers in check, and with the fast rate that these all reproduce, they'll quickly become the dominant colony in your medium, and overtake it. Mushrooms grow slowly compared to molds, yeasts, and bacteria, so unless the mushroom colony is well established, its pretty difficult to overcome a contamination.

    ~5:15 "What do you think; is this one usable?"
    No. It's probably contaminated with something. It's hard to tell on the earlier one in the video (the one on top that might have grey mold), but if you even so much as suspect contamination it is better to assume the suspicion is correct.
    I do believe you are correct about the areas of yellow-brown staining you've identified as metabolytes.
    When dealing with contamination, the best thing to do is just get rid of the whole jar. Don't even open it. Losing a jar/bag of spawn only sets you back like a month or so and the jars/bags/substrate themselves are fairly cheap, especially when compared to the possibility of medical bills (or worse). Some of the contaminants you can accidentally cultivate are really, really nasty (as in "lethal neurotoxins") and it's not worth any risk of exposure.
    Most of the really dangerous ones have obvious visual indicators, but it's better safe than sorry when engaging any sort of microbiological work.

      @AtlasReburdened 4 ปีที่แล้ว +56

      @MrStevonsky Yeah, super easy. A single viable mold spore floating in and landing on something you think is sterile can do it. I live in an older house in Houston and just the baseline mold spore levels mean I have to do all mycological work in a glove box, in a dedicated room that gets blasted with UVC and Ozone periodically and with concessionless asepic procedure. But I also go from wild fruiting body, through agar culture isolation of a sterile sample, to jar grain spawn, to either final grain or onto wood dowels, so I have a lot of additional possible contamination points along the way.

    When you cook mushrooms start with a few tablespoons of water, cook for ~5 minutes (until the water is gone), then add the oil (like a quarter of what you are using here). When you cook them before adding oil it makes them absorb less oil and therefore brown far better with less oil, and have a much better texture.

Same tribe that sold out US nuclear secrets to russia via spying, bankers that financed communist china, killing millions and creating a 2nd world slave-state, and same tribe committing false flags such as the _lavon affair_ for political gain. They play the victim card when found out, but you must know our freedom of speech exists to point them out because since 66AD they have been expelled from host countries 109 times..

    I love this. Mushrooms are fascinating and delicious. I've wanted to grow mycelium myself for ages.
    One suggestion; I found the best way is to cook mushrooms is to add a bit of water initially. That collapses the internal structure of the mushroom which reduces it's porosity so it can be properly sautéed without being mega oily. Then you can add a little oil and sautée normally.

    Hey cody it just occurred to me that since you have experience cultivating mushrooms you could try making penicillin? That would most likely be useful on another planet! ^_^

    You could try sewing or gluing the magnets to a strip of fabric. That way you would be able to remove and reattach them more quickly. It also might be easier to keep track of them.

    I seldom use oil while cooking Oysters. They do very well dry-seared! Edit: try yourself a dry-sear and finish it off with a bit of melted butter (salt or no salt is up to you!) :D

    That’s really interesting. I now realize just how little we learn about the 4th eukaryotic kingdom of fungi. I know plenty about plants, animals, and even a bit about Protista. But watching the colonization patterns and how your mushrooms metabolize is really interesting

    Dont slice mushrooms you tear them. Cook out the water and if you have bacon grease it will make them taste amazing. Also wood ash and lime and used coffee grounds work wonders for growing. Your yields will be higher. With lime tests show. Lions mane is a tough mushroom to grow its the only one that i have problems with. So dont kick yourself. If you cant eat them all dry them out and grind them into dishes you make it will enhance them. Dont oven dry just air dry for a few days.

    I bought a red oyster mushroom grow kit from home depot since I was bored. It was actually super easy and I couldn't believe how fast they grow. I just soaked this bag overnight that it came with drained it and cut an x in it. 7 days later I had full sized mushrooms with minimal effort. I just sprayed them with water for the first 7 days. Really an amazing process and they were pretty good stir fried with other veggies and garlic.
