Do you ferment them in water for a few days to release the seeds from the pulp?
I used a standard 1000L IBC tote which is about 36" tall. I pulled all the pipes except the center one.

Day 23 of the modified J/S compost. It has cooled into the low 100's, there has been several flushes of surface mushrooms. Seems to be at a low point in mushroom growth at this time, however. It has settled about 8-10 inches overall.

I can smell that from here

Spent some time yesterday down at the river hunting some agates, petrified wood, jasper, jade, and such.

Watering my first finished Johnson-Su bioreactor compost. I could've gone another 6" but I ran out of material. That won't be an issue next time, and I've got the second one set up and ready to go. Now I gotta find me some worms to add once the heating cycle is done.
I wish to thank nostr:npub15879mltlln6k8jy32k6xvagmtqx3zhsndchcey8gjyectwldk88sq5kv0n for teaching me how to do it (and why) and also my two sons who made the process far easier and more fun.
I am SO happy with this! Makes me smile so much.

I just joined the same club!
Are these crows warning us of something? ๐ฎ https://video.nostr.build/68942c61c2bbb02f6f8467f65629be8c7cb308aac91035953654b82deaf4d132.mp4

I've watched the first 2....I agree, very good so far.

First bin of a modified J/S compost made and ready for its year long transformation. Made it on 7/28

Night sky over Bannack.
Founded by gold prospectors on Grasshopper Creek in the territory of Montana in 1862, Bannack briefly became the territorial capital of Montana in 1864 until Virginia City took its place. Being very remote, only served by the Montana Trail (running north-south from Utah to SW Montana), it still grew to over 10000 residents. Sheriff Plummer was accused of leading a secret gang of road agents that was rumored to have murdered at least 100 in the area. Plummer was hanged, along with two of his deputies in January of 1864 without trial. A number of Plummer's associates were lynched and others banished on pain of death if they ever returned. Twenty-two individuals were accused, informally tried, and hanged by the Vigilance Committee (the Montana Vigilantes) of Bannack and Virginia City. Nathaniel Pitt Langford, the first superintendent of Yellowstone National Park, was a member of that vigilance committee. The last residents of Bannack moved in the 1970s.
More than 132,000 ounces of gold were mined in Bannack in the 1860's, all of it placer gold.

The northern lights put on a show last night in MT. From what I have heard, they were seen as far south as FL in the US. Pretty awesome show. Just cell phone pics, so nothing too stunning as far as quality.

Just finished listening to this one. Great interview; went down several unexpected (but awesome) paths.
