I came in to the production business already in full swing. I still need to learn how to do small scale on my own.

I do know, however, shiitake are a very particular cultivation and do not like hanging out with other species. Their spores will wreck all other fruiting crop in the same fruiting room.

Lions mane and blues are very easy to grow once you have your system down.

Flow hood isn't required, but look into a box fan and a MERV filter. Clean inoculation = healthy grow

He didn't have good results, but maybe he was just an idiot and screwed it up or something.

I'll try to put something together myself and see how it goes I guess.

Still need to figure out how to sterilize substrate if I use sawdust. I guess I could also go the pre-sterilized rice method too...
