The Nash-Mane 🔥 Full Circle beer battered lions mane steak, corn relish, Nashville hot sauce, pickled onions, served on sourdough! This new menu item is Vegan & out of this world good! Come give it a try this week at the bus. 🌿

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the Daviess County Public Library today. We’re so grateful for y’all! If you missed us, no worries we’ll be open back up to the public Thursday from 4PM-7PM at The Owensboro Regional Farmers' Market! 🫶🏼

By far the most satisfying moment in my mushroom growing career. While this isn't the first Lions Mane mushroom I've grown, it is the first I've ever propagated through the cloning process, along with a wall of more mushrooms behind it! This process took about 12 weeks, with agar work taking the most time. I hope they continue to grow big and healthy. Checking a major item off my list today ✔️

Quick sift before turning these oats into grain spawn for my mushrooms. They will need to be carefully hydrated in a hot water solution of gypsum powder, coffee grounds, and mineral salt to be a prefect nutrient source for mushrooms. A pressure cooker will sterilize in bags with gas exchange patches for lab use.

The dream of my farm is to be a wealth of education and positive influence for others by giving light to foundational health 🧠💙💪. We are innately able to be healthy by following simple guidelines 🌞. For the majority of us, the health we find ourselves at today is earned, good and bad. The hard truth is that we should be honest about our health and make it a priority. This should not be fully self-serving, we nourish others by who we are. My favorite way of saying it- treat your body like a temple, not a woodshed.

All the ingredients for high quality mushrooms, minus the loud music of course 🎵

Trying my hand at Blue Oyster again! And getting a backup Lions Mane culture in case my clone doesn't work out. Finally have the equipment to get a pretty blue color for the oysters, it requires plenty of fresh air and cooler temperatures.

Recently switched to 7lb grow blocks from 5lb, this helped to fully utilize the running cost of bags and to grow bigger mushrooms. Wouldn't be possible without my two workhorses, these 41 qt autoclaves have been my most worthwhile investment!

These bags contain 50/50 wood pellets and soy hull pellets along with water. A good combination of nutrients and grow medium for wood loving mycelium. Once sterilized they allow quicker colonization and bigger mushrooms to form. A .5 micron patch on the bags allows me to seal them so they can breathe while keeping out contaminants.

Fresh batch of agar dishes, happy with how clear I was able to get them!

These are used for propagating mushrooms by use of spores or cloning, and isolating phenotypes, or variations in genetics.

Phenotypes determine how quickly a mushroom will form and it's size/shape.

Deformed Lions Mane resulting from weakened genetics.

There are not enough letters in the alphabet to represent the variables of mushroom growing. Literally every week is a learning experience, and I've 'failed' 100's of times in my journey of cultivating gourmet mushrooms. However, I've always failed forward. Nose to the grindstone.

Mycelium forming from a sample of Lions Mane Mushroom. Time to refresh genetics 🧬

New record!!! 1.25 lbs on first flush 😊

Looking good next to that Seymour Farms lettuce!! 😏 Go check us out at Gene's Health Food Inc.

Up to 25 grow blocks per week! These will grow about 2 lbs of Lions Mane each within 6 weeks.

My new pressure cooker has been a game changer, although on my 4th run I dealt with a faulty over-pressure plug. Scared the hell out of my gf and I 😂

Anyways, things have been going relatively smooth and I couldn't be happier! I can't thank my support system and community enough for making it possible to be this successful already. Look out for the infamous Lions Mane Mushroom 🦁 coming your way!

Things have been going well at the farm, and weekly harvests are getting bigger 💪

Special thanks to Fetta Specialty Pizza for getting my Lions Mane out into the community, and making them taste delicious 😋 Go try it out while it's available!

The grow gets more exciting each week!

Here I'm using whole oats as a grain spawn to expand my Lions Mane culture, I put about 1 cup of grain into each sterilized "block". These blocks are 50/50 hardwood pellets and soy bean hull pellets, aka Masters Mix, an industry standard.

Humble beginnings here at the mushroom farm, my heart is already full. Wouldn't have come this far without the support I have, feels like the world is behind me sometimes 🫶

Smoked chicken and potato hash, with sautéed bell peppers and onions, topped with basil microgreens 🌱 Needless to say, Madilyn approved 😊

Just shy of a pound on my first lions mane harvest!!! I'll be experimenting on increasing fresh air exchange to see if they'll grow a little more "puffball" shaped instead of a big blob. Seriously couldn't be more excited, huge shoutout to North Spore for sending me such a heavy hitting strain 😎

31/10/2021

First flush of Lions Mane this season, coming in nice! I'll be cloning the top left one to propagate my grow for the rest of the season. 😊

Mushroom Update 🍄

Liking this new and simple setup so far! My first goal is to produce 5lbs a week of Lion's Mane, which I think I can get fairly easily from this tub design. Another week and a half and I'll be posting some gorgeous Lions Mane mushrooms, stay tuned 🤞😊
