Glad you're covering the basics and considering new growers. Need more of a presence like this across the community

Excellent video. Used an old pickle jar and some brown rice. Drilled hole in top of pickle jar for poly batting (from old jacket) and smaller hole for syringe of spores. Don't have a pressure cooker so swished boiling water around jar and dipped lid in boiling water. Prepared brown rice as shown. Put cool rice in just sterilized (I hoped) jar and pushed a little batting through lid and put on. Injected spores and put scotch tape over syringe hole. Didn't have much hope but already had pickle jar and brown rice is pretty cheap. A week later saw a little mistiness on inside of jar, thought it might be mold but let it be. By a week and a half jar is filled with mycelium and a day later mycelium is starting to climb inside of jar. Added it to substrate the next day and it was already starting to fruit a little. Here's hoping for a good mushroom crop. Thx so much for the video!

If it wasn't for this video and your other videos, I probably wouldn't be entering the world of mushroom cultivation. Thank you for such clarity in helping make this field simpler and easier

if you don't want to soak overnight, use this tek.

put grains in bucket. boil tap water. pour still boiling water into bucket. put lid on. let it sit for 60-80 mins. drain water. lay grains on flat surface until dry or close to dry on exterior. jar the grains up.

Keep the videos coming. Every time I watch a new one I learn ways to improve my operation.

[rjmorstad]

Thank you Tony for your videos! You are thorough in your postings and this is good for our learning. Well done, and keep up the good work!

[mikezetts]

After watching other videos, I really appreciate this no nonsense approach for simple mushroom substrate creation.

[yahseek]

Thanks Tony for keeping it simple and affordable. I appreciate your sharing.

This is by far the most helpful, well made video I've seen on this yet. THANK YOU.

As a new mushroom grower have to say thank you.. As an old canner Do be aware your elevation affects how much pressure is used to sterilize ie in NC foothills once it hits ten then you start the timer for the 90 mins. Chart comes with the canner and of course you can google it. Hope that helps someone.

Just got my grain and have my liquid culture ready to start my Wine Cap's spawn for my garden grow.
I'm learning a lot from your very concise and informative videos... Thanks from the Southern Oregon Coast.

Totally awesome video! Your idea on making the self sealing jar lids is exceptional....thanks!

I suffered the borderline disorder for over 23 years. With so much anxiety Not until I came across psilocybin mushrooms treatmentPsilocybin treatment actually saved my life honestly. 6 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms

[spinafire]

Holy cow, I was on track to come up with something like this but your find for the high temp silicon is brilliant. Thanks for sharing!

[Harveywallbanger]

Appreciate the video! Really helps for people like me just growing gourmet mushrooms for myself on a small scale. Love the pink oysters!

[boomanchu]

Permatex blue RTV silicone is rated for up to 500°F. Red RTV is rated for up to 650°F. Both are rated for temps that are higher than temps reached in your pressure cooker (15 psi should be about 257°F.)

Use whatever color RTV silicone your fashion sense desires.

[utahiggs]

Thank you for this excellent how-to, just made my first jars and it was a breeze!

[caseyallred]

It’s unreal how amazingly helpful this video is. Such an awareness for the exact random and obscure questions/anxieties that beginners would have and having an answer or some advice

[sjaguiar]

excellent tutorial. One of the best I've seen. Simple, precise and informative. Keep it up!

With oyster mushrooms you can skip a LOT of steps, because they are so virulent they will outcompete everything else in the grain/substrate. You can just boil the grain, then cool and drain it and add the culture straight to it, no sterilising needed. You can even use the 'stem butts' of very fresh oyster mushrooms in place of culture, which allows true self sufficiency at a home scale. You can EVEN skip the gain altogether and spawn them directly on shredded carboard.
Oyster mushrooms are AWESOME.
