These bags of grain spawn are carrying the genetics of our selected cultivars.
Consuming sterilized grain, the mushroom spores grow into strands of hyphae, dawg.ππ
I'm a regular guy, that had an opportunity to switch things up. Nothing special about me. I just worked hard on one thing for years, and never gave up, although there were plenty of late nights with trouble sleeping, and early mornings filled with work, just to make sure I could defeat the odds that were present weekly. 80-90% failure rates doing this exact task.
I took my 2/10 blocks that actually grew mushrooms, and I appreciated that I was able to grow any at all. Sometimes I thought I was crazy.. How could someone be happy with that outcome? Those odds changed, once I figured out the biological processes that allow mushrooms to move through each stage.
Fast forward to today..
Most weeks I get 90-100% success rates. I just stuck with it, and believed in myself. There will always be failures. I've accepted that now and it doesn't phase me as much.
