Mushrooms - DIY, spores, etc 🍄 (Part 2)

[AppalachianBiscuits]

I’m a big fan of 1000 little messes, too. So far I have 3 jars I’ve injected with spores over the weekend. I used my instant pot to steam sterilize the jars. I have a pressure canner but it’s huge and I was only trying to do a couple of jars. I have like, 9 of 12 jars of grain left from the last Lions mane batch I did.

I’m not opposed to grain to bulk, but I’m scared of mushrooms because I have a very light grasp on reality as it is, I don’t need help coming untethered. I’m not sure we would want that many?

It does ramp up fairly quickly, lol. Next thing you know you’re making Christmas wreaths with mushrooms.

I think that’s what my dad really wants for Christmas.

Spore prints! Spore prints on all the things!

I once saw a video clip of a woman wearing a hat that had 5-10 cubensis spore prints on the brim. She said it was so she could spread the spores around the parks when she went hiking Years later I’m wondering ift that actually works… might have to start walking the trails more regularly!

Spore prints do make cool art. Not a bad idea!!
