I went through this exact scenario a few years ago. I’ve now got a home around my family, with land, where we live near sovereign lives.

Definitely worth it, work towards it

Another night of processing ahead of me. I’ve got to get a solar dehydrator going soon

For sure, you can have them cheap I have acres of them. DM me in the fall when the trees go dormant

Nice I wouldn’t mess with the shiitakes at this point.

As far as the oysters, let them colonize, then bury them in a ‘log raft’. Lie the logs down horizontally & bury halfway. They won’t fruit if they aren’t partially buried

‘Mushroom mountain’, use sawdust spawn & get the tools required. Much cheaper. ‘North Spore’ & ‘Field & Forest’ are also good

Thank you & I have a few wild patches on family land. They’re native to floodplains here in SC.

We probably have at least an acre of papaws. I went in & cleared most of the surrounding sweetgums for more light

I spent a lot of time clearing around our papaw patches this year to get more fruit.

Looks like it’s gonna pay off

One of the most important base level issues of our time & the most unrecognized by the general public nostr:note15su7kmjfmxsmc3zd73n0su8e2uqfstu3ej6806ck58rzlyrz742s70kx6p

I’d say it’s worth it. I told someone earlier on here but don’t forget about the colonization stage. Most people mess that up

For them to colonize they need to sit 3-5 inches or so from the ground surface for at least 6 months usually.

You want them off the ground to prevent wild mushrooms from outcompeting the inoculated variety.

They also need to be close to the ground because there is more moisture near the earth. If you stack them high the ones on the top will dry out

They seem to produce significantly more on white oak & black cherry. Also, don’t skip the colonization process, in case you did

Picked & ready to soak up some vitamin D!

(Put mushrooms gills up in the sun & they produce vitamin d, apparently) nostr:note1y2k432clnj0lygf2vhr8l7syh5yjnnn98genrzqf35azyq5yu4hql2c83z

Just cut the logs, wait a week or 2 for the natural fungicides to get out the logs. Then inoculate with sawdust spawn. Using sawdust spawn is much cheaper than the plugs.

There are specialized sawdust plungers you can buy & specialized drill bits. I have a huge party on inoculation day, it’s fun. Everyone comes to help & they can take a few logs home

Once you inoculate you wax the holes then let them colonize in the shade then stack into the cabins you see here

A friend of mine bought T Swift tickets for $600, then flipped them for $5000 about a month later.
