Growing mushrooms is stupid easy, the only challenging part is keeping things sterile during inoculation and before the mycelium is established. Moisture content of the substrate is important as well but that's pretty easy to get right.
You can set up a monotub using a storage bin, just line it with a trash bag, toss in some damp hot water sterilized coco coir and mix your fully colonized grain spawn, then cover the bin loosely so there is some airflow and keep it in a closet that you've cleaned thoroughly. Once set up they require almost no maintenance until they start to flush.
Once you've got pins showing you can improve your flushes by spraying and fanning, but even without that you will probably get 1-2 flushes of decent size.
- basch 4y agoI agree, but this reads as "you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem" The keurigification/dropboxification and the ability of companies like instantpot/ninja to clone and resell old ideas but slightly better cant be understated. People like easy pods and start buttons.
