    This is amazing content thank you very much. I've been learning about mushrooms the last couple of years I've been really enjoying it I love to get some growing out in my garden

    I appreciate you digging through your woodchips where your wine caps were spreading. I have been wondering if the mycelia needed to grow up to the top of the chips before fruiting, but I have been unable to find that until now. Thanks!!

    Could leaf mould / fall leaves that are damp or dry be used rather than finished compost as a top layer over the wood chips? What are your thoughts regarding using a mix of hard wood & softer woods? I've heard other growers mention that they often use a mix of woods, at least 50% hardwoods, although 100% hardwoods are optimal. I've even heard some say to include green twigs & sticks which have been chipped / shredded as a source of food for the mycelium as they contain natural sugars & carbohydrates, I believe was said. Thanks very much in advance for your response. This is the first year I've become interested in growing mushrooms longterm & live in a very damp, coastal area, in the middle of temperate rainforest. I'm on your waiting list for your next course 🙂

    I have access to a recently ground up large oak tree. Are you saying that this material isn't ideal with the statement on not using a huge ground up tree? If so, I gather then that we are looking for the heartwood and no the more energetic parts of the tree, the xylem and phloem?

    The "seeds (spore covered carrot seed size pieces)" are black morel, golden chanterelle, lion's mane, porcini, and black truffles.
    Can any of these work?

    Great video, thank you so much. Question : How many times will aprox will the main container will give fruits before I tranfer the mycelium under a tree or a Raised bed?
