waterboy 2.0 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hi folks,thought this may be a good way to group those up seeking the less than common edible/medicinals.Could be a good way to put a wishlist together, like most things seek and one can find, or others in their travels and chats...lolSo to kick it off I am interested to know about if we have Agaricus augustus (The Prince) about ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Peddler Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 No princeBut im very interested in any and all Lepista nuda culture and strains around. I love the blewit. Prefer Australian sourced ones which are probably more suited to Australian conditions. if you've tasted this edible you will understand why, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterboy 2.0 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Share Posted September 28, 2013 After digging through some prints I did make a storage print this year from the local blewits here Zen.Your welcome to it if you like, PM me and its yours, may need a some clean up - but reckon it would outgrow most things. Otherwise next season I'll be back in the position hopefully to clean-up and isolate clones from fruiting patches for a live proven fruiter.My stem butts to cardboard experiment failed in the end due to lack of time and neglect....too many projects...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worowa Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Any Agaricus blazei?Morchella sp.?

I would seriously love to try growing this species.I've got it, shoot me your addy. I haven't fruited it yet, but it is forming blobs (sclerota?) on agar. Very fast on agar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waterboy 2.0 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 (edited) ^now thats what I was thinkin about...lol....Legend worowa <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_newimprovedwinkonclear.gifI have a fair bit banked up, but dont want to firing them up yet until I re-establish beyond ghetto work at a time. Some cultures may be beyond it.Getting cultures spread out and banked is also an idea I was thinkin of Red <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_newimprovedwinkonclear.gif . Once I am cracking again happy to spread my genetics about. I think we really need to get some rarer things happpening downunder.EDIT - I'm expecting the Shaggies to make an appearance soon.

tripsis Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 Sent to me from a cloned fruiting body. Been looking for ages-last time I saw it I wasn't a grower.Amazing. Well I'm in no position to do anything with a culture of it now, but will definitely let you know when I am. Keep us posted on how you go with it. I've read the sclerotia can keep growing over 30 years, though don't know the accuracy of that statement. So it may be so slow as to be useless for cultivation.

Zen Peddler Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 No love on the shaggys? I guess I'll just clone next may. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrooman Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Just starting out, wanting to do my 1st proper grow with Phoenix oyster as I'm told they are fast growing and heat tolerant.Then want to move onto Reishi, Lions Mane, Turkey Tail, and Shiitake.Would love it if anybody could help out?ThanksShrooman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Peddler Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I did about 50 clone plates yesterday of a variety of oysters and a few others. If they take and I can isolate Ill send them out no worries. Just takes time 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was several light prints as well?If they take and when ive isolated I can send you one as thanks?

waterboy 2.0 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Share Posted October 7, 2013 Alls good mate, yep they look light on foil due to colour, when on black paper they really pop out.I've actually started using black and white paper for spore print IDs now for better colour definition, but always foil for storage. I'd be keen for a plate Zen down the track <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_newimprovedwinkonclear.gif 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
