RE: Winecaps the Sequel!

in Fungi Lovers5 years ago (edited)

I hope so but what I learned when trying to grow them is that one mushroom's mycelium competes against any other species. When you inoculate sawdust or some other growing medium with spore, you have to have a completely sterile environment so no other competing spores can infect the same medium.

Well, the same place that the winecaps have fruited, a bunch of ink caps have been comeing up too. Also, worms apparently love eating the mycelium and of course a garden bed is bound to have a few worms.

So there's no sure bets in this business.😐

True, hopefully the ink caps won't mess them up. Maybe the worms will help spread it around a bit.
