I usually don’t grow in the summer due to the heat and I’m struggling to get my ass in gear for this winter. I usually have about 4 varieties I grow, blue oysters, pinks, lion’s mane and pioppinos.

    You can get solid results with a 5-gal bucket, a trash bag, and an outdoor spot in the shade.

    A tent is a great upgrade at scale but overkill when growing casually; don’t let it stop you.

      100% - I gave my parents in law a 5 gal bucket to grow their own at home, and it flushed 5 or 6 times before they emptied it into the compost. Masters mix with boiled water poured over top, I thought it would contaminate because it wasn’t properly sterilized, but had no issues colonizing.

      I was taking inventory of some stuff I purchased for other projects… this is something I’ve always wanted to try, and has given me a use case to give it a shot
