Gonna have some fun spouting cheeky quips at the fitness folks so they come by and try my samples. Do you have a favorite?

"Got protein? I do... and it's delicious!"
"Don’t just lift weights, lift your snack game!"
"Pumped up after your workout? Fuel it with some serious flavor!"
"Build those muscles and satisfy those cravings with jerky!"
"Looking for a snack that’s as tough as your workout? Try this!"
"If your workout was a 'beast mode,' this jerky's 'flavor mode.'"
"This jerky: the snack that works harder than your gym membership!"
"Snack like a champion, no sweat required."
"Jerky’s the protein you want. No blender required."
"Work hard, snack harder! Come try my jerky."
"Don’t settle for a protein bar. Go big with jerky!"
"No guilt, just great taste and muscle fuel!"
"You’ve earned those gains... now earn some flavor!"
"Fuel your workout and your taste buds!"
"Protein doesn’t have to be boring... come try my jerky!"
"Big gains, big flavor. Grab a sample and see for yourself!"
"Protein so tasty, you’ll wonder why you didn’t try it sooner!"
"Skip the boring protein bars. jerky’s where it’s at!"
"You’ve been lifting weights. now lift your snack game with jerky!"
"Gains on the go. Grab some jerky and keep moving!"
"Protein so good, you’ll think it’s your cheat day!"
"Muscles need snacks too. give them some jerky!"
"Want a snack that works as hard as you do? Try my jerky!"
"Build your body and your brain with my Lion's Mane jerky!"
"Post-gym snack that’s high in protein, low in regret."
"Feel the burn, then feel the flavor of our Fire jerky!"
"Snack smarter, not harder. Protein-packed jerky is here!"

and my personal favorite "Gains on the inside, flavor on the outside!"

See ya tomorrow!

Just finished bagging what may be the last batch of BBQ jerky until spring. This jerky is made specifically with Golden Oysters, because of the taste this mushroom imparts pairs perfect with BBQ flavors.

The last Old Pearland Farmers Market was a blast. I look forward to November's market.

Just got this carbon filter and water softener installed to help with the calcium build-up in my steam sterilizer.

Having the float valve stick open while I'm out at a market can only happen once. I got lucky someone was here to see it and shut it off before there was damage. I doubt I get lucky twice.

I could use some help.

My tent struggles to stay cold enough for production during the summer months and I would like to resolve this by next summer. You affordable suggestions are welcomed.

Currently, I have a 15k BTU window air conditioner controlled by an Inkbird temperature controller. The cold air is ducred into my tent and hot air is evacuated through the roof. The main issue is the tent does not retain the cold air for very long and I think that's where my efforts would be best focused.

I've looked into a walk in freezer kit, but the $10k price tag has me looking for more affordable solutions. Additionally, those kits aren't designed for high humidity environments that also purge the internal air based on fast CO2 build up generated by the mushrooms as they grow.

I'd love for some affordable suggestions I can pursue.

Thanks in advance!

It's been a busy day. Now, to sterilize these mushroom blocks and grain spawn.

I've come to appreciate clean air more than ever thanks to mushroom farming. My latest bulwark against airborne particulate is this monster air scrubber designed by the after watching his research and designs on YouTube.

I've been researching how to build the best Corsi-Rosenthal filter box for years, and before I was about to build my own, I was lucky enough to find this. It's exactly how I planned to build mine, but better. After assembling this one, I can confidently say this is a well-made kit and expect to have it for at least 10 years.

No more buying proprietary filters that don't work as well as I was lead to believe. Now, I can go to the hardware store and pick up any 20"x30"x1" filter for a fraction of the cost and multiple times the effectiveness.

This thing pulls or pushes 2300 cubic feet per minute of air through Merv 13 filters. At full speed, it's about as loud as a box fan at full speed.

10/10 I would recommend. I may buy another in the future.

A new batch of Garden Gold mushroom compost is bagged up in preparation for this Saturday's from 5pm - 9pm.

Your plants will thank you. I'll have limited supply, and there are no pre-orders.

See ya soon!

It's tiny lab time again. I've been busy ramping up production, and it's got me curious what your single person sweat shop looks like. My space is 6'x10'. It's tight, but it keeps things clean.

NO MARKETS THIS WEEKEND! I really wanted to be at this Saturday and still encourage you to go. You'll have fun.

That empty box is not only one of my jerky boxes, but it's also indicative of my overall inventory. Which is to say, SOLD OUT! Thank you all! I have a few packs of Lion's Mane and Reishi powders/capsules, and that's all.

I thought the August heat was going to beat me this year. Instead, it was the overwhelming support. It gets me right in the feels. Thank you.

Now, to figure out how to, once again, expand my operation.

How would you record mushrooms growing in a very humid tent over the course of 10 days? Now, how would you do it with very little money?

Made my way to College Station today for more mushroom food.

Reishi grown invitro looks so weird. I'm going to turn this into a supplement powder. Hopefully, available at my next market.
