Product Information

Cover the tinfoil shape with a layer of clay and also start shaping the walls, the door and the windows on the jar.

Create a beautiful display of plant cuttings or flowers with these stunning retro style mushroom vases, they come in different shapes and colors. To encourage your jar to fruit a second time, soak your jar in water to simulate a rainstorm and wait.I have syringes I’ve made myself from prints so I can control how much spores I use and control proper sterile techniques.

If you are looking to expand your materials, you can use this substrate to inoculate more grain and/or wood jars. It’s a fun weekend project and the creations can be used as candy jars for a candy bar, birthday party, thank you gifts for a baby shower, baby room decoration, piggy bank, jewlery box and so on. Once it sausages out of the backside, repeat the process so you’re creating a kind of overfilled sandwich effect, this will help prevent ripping the port through once you’ve skewered a needle through it. You can either make a ton more grain spawn, or add it to a bulk substrate to finally get some mushrooms! This is done by performing a grain to grain transfer, were first generation grain spawn is added to additional sterile grain in a ratio between 1:10 and 1:20.If the clay doesn’t stick to the previous layer I recomand you to water the areas you want to work on. This will allow the grains to absorb water, and will cause many contaminants to sprout, making them more susceptible to being killed through sterilization. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places. Especially important is to not open the jar unless in a completely sterile environment and leave it open for as little time as possible. Used substrate can be re-sterilized and used for a different type of mushroom, or can be placed in the garden to add nutrients.

first of all, the grain contains tons of nutrition that is important for fruiting- kind of acts like supplementation. If you use watercolors for this step I recommend you seal them in the end with varnish or regular hair spray. Hi, in this instructable I'm going to show you how I made mushroom fairy houses out of cute little jars. I think dispensing a drop or two right after flame then immediately into the injection port is my only option.You can also inoculate the grain jar without even opening the lid, by simply injecting the liquid culture right though the filter on the top of the jar. Using a small amount of spores is the easiest method for me to properly inoculate my grains, rye berries usually. This is because of Rye’s water absorbing qualities, nutrient makeup, and, well, mushrooms seem to like it. We have combined special organic brown rice flour with vermiculite, mineral water, Liquid worm castings and Bee pollen to create the Ultimate mushroom growing jars!

Glad you like the site 🙂 You can usually do 2-3 grain to grain expansions before running into issues- If I were you, I would start with LC to grain in mason jars, then expand that 10X into 5 lb bags. This post details how to make your own mushroom culture from fresh mushrooms (please note, King Trumpet mushrooms are part of the oyster genus).First 14 jars i inoculated with 5cc and the other 14 with 10cc because i’m not sure how much it takes. Once used as an actual filter, it’s gas exchange ability would be reduced severely as it would be gunked up with mycelium. Some people do just use one port, using polyfil, and just inject straight through that with a needle. I received some of these jars from a friend that knows I like mushroom imagery and am in the middle of rewatching Stranger Things and realized they’re the same jars which makes me love them even more!
