omsource Posted June 19, 2012 (edited) Hey all, Seeing how Punkin is moving on from the hobby and finishing up with the Colonised Grain Spawn sales I thought that I'd step up and fill that void. Definitely no ACTIVE mushroom species! Only gourmet and medicinal so please don't ask. Colonised wheat grain spawn will sell for $22 for 2Kg plus express satchel cost of $12.50 Oz wide! Mushroom varieties include: -Blue Oyster -White Oyster -King Oyster -Lions Mane -Shiitake (seasonal strains) -Maitake -Shaggy Mane -Turkey Tail -Golden Enoki In the warmer months I'll start cycling in -Pink Oyster -Golden Oyster -Phoenix Oyster -Reishi etc... I'll whip up a collection of species and then post up on this thread when the bags are colonised and ready to post. Grain bags made to order will have a turn-around time of a few weeks depending on the species and my grain master situation. Bump this thread and PM me if you're interested! Cheers, OmSource Edited August 25, 2012 by omsource 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted June 20, 2012 A fellow mushroom lover here has asked about Sawdust Spawn so I thought I'd throw that one out there as well. Same dealio, 2Kg would go for $22 plus the $12 postage...same species although some less popular ones may need a couple weeks turn around Also some advanced Shiitake blocks, browned and ready to fruit- They'd sell for $25 for 2kg as they take a few months to mature, thus taking up more space. Here's a pic of sawdust spawn (on the left) and a Shiitake kit (right) ready to fruit out of the bag! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NSF Posted June 21, 2012 Great stuff Om! So what strains of Le are browned and ready right now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted June 21, 2012 The great little strain you sent me! It colonised a block in under 2 weeks, blistered in another week and then browned up in under a month Block have incubated for over two months and are ready to fruit! I'm doing a workshop this weekend so might end up a little low on the browned blocks. Also have a couple 75's and 44's well and truly ready to go too.

seachangeau Posted June 21, 2012 hi how do i order and pay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) PM's replied to and orders colonising as we speak! still figuring out how best to manage this. I've got grain masters of all species listed above, once ordered they'll take a week or two to colonise and be ready to post off. I can post up if there are any bags ready to go that haven't been spoken for, first come first serve just reply to the thread and send me a PM! At the moment I've got 2x 2.3kg+ bags of a White Oyster (Pleurotus ostreatus) - SOLD Edited July 8, 2012 by omsource Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadehouse Posted July 3, 2012 your turkey tail's got my attention! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theuserformallyknownasd00d Posted July 3, 2012 Hey om, the oyster kit I got from you is starting to pin like crazy, thanks again for that! I am also curios regarding the turkey tails, I pick them all year round where I live :-) if I were to purchase a TT kit, would it be on grain or a log? Sorry I am still a real noob when it comes to cultivation but your kits are making it so much easier to understand the process! I am currently saving to attend one of your courses also :-) Thanks mate D00d Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am currently saving to attend one of your courses also :-) Thanks mate D00d No worries d00d, glad it's working for ya!! As for the turkey tails I've had great success with my strain (found on a local mission here in Vic) on supplemented sawdust. I'm happy to whip them up if anyone's keen. Same dealio as the ready to fruit shiitake blocks. It'll take a couple weeks to colonise them so bear that in mind A mate of mine had awesome success growing them on logs...he did a vid I'll see if I can dig it up... If you purchase from Omsource you will not be disappointed Big thumbs up Thanks man thanks for the good feedback DreamTime! keep us posted on your shiitake grow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted July 5, 2012 (edited) gotta couple 2kg bags of Shiitake grain spawn about a week away! A very fast cold weather strain. -SOLD a bag of blue/grey Oyster a few days away And a 2kg bag of Morel Sawdust spawn ready to post (haven't confirmed whether it's a yellow or black morel...)

Zen Peddler Posted July 12, 2012 Very cool idea - Can you get Stropharia and lepista nuda? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted July 12, 2012 Very cool idea - Can you get Stropharia and lepista nuda? Just working on some promising strains for the King Stropharia I have a lepista culture but I'm still working on cleaning it up....could take some time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted July 15, 2012 grain production stalled for week while I transfer all my gear to my newly constructed lab. I'll be back up and producing gourmet mushroom spawn shortly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted August 21, 2012 got a couple of shiitake 75 bags ready to rock as well as a couple colder temp Shiitakes for down south! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted August 22, 2012 I could knock off 20% for a large order like that, trouble would be the express shipping costs of posting 40kg of spawn... shoot me a PM if you're keen and we can work out the details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bigred Posted August 23, 2012 cheers dude i am going to convert a old coke fridge into a grow cabnet and have it set up so people can pick the mushrooms themselves so just trying to work out a few things first i ment 20 empty bags just to check them out but if you could do bulk like that it would be good to know so if it takes off witch i think it will i would need alot my friend runs a organic market so i have a good feeling i wrote to you about a live culture so if you could would be good to know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omsource Posted August 24, 2012 I was thinking 40kg of spawn was a bit extravagant! Check out the FungiCulture website, it'll have the larger spawn bags and cultures available too. Just added 10cc culture syringes for those without a glove box or a laminar Like the idea with the grow cabinet, love to see some pics, maybe an in progress build?

Bigred Posted August 24, 2012 will do i think it would be awesome for customers to pick there own will post my photo's i saw a chamber of shrooms on mycology.net so i am going to try copy that will have to work out what strains would be the best to thanks man talk soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
