Hello, I've been very interested in growing mushrooms for a long time, and have been researching which may be the best method, then I saw this video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBgfhsw4qHk&mode=related&search=
Pretty amazing huh? That is the kind of yeilds I am interested in, could someone please explain to me how someone may do this? What supplies would I need? It looks like a tub of sorts but I'm sure it might be better using a rubbermaid container or even some type of glass...tub. It looks like he has a thermostat inside to give it humidity, what kind of thermostat should I be looking for? I live in canada, anyone know of places to purchase spores online? If not it's not a big deal as I know a store in town that sells them, but obviously they over charge.
One also very big question in my mind, is there a way to continously grow mushrooms? I know shroomery has many answers but their site is very vast, any links directly to pages would be very helpful.
Either way, look at them grow!
>could someone please explain to me how someone may do this? What supplies would I need?
These mushrooms were grown on cased rye.
>It looks like he has a thermostat inside to give it humidity
No, the humidity comes from water evaporating from the casing due to the incandescent light that was constantly on.
>I live in canada, anyone know of places to purchase spores online?
www.sporelab.com is a canadian vendor.
>One also very big question in my mind, is there a way to continously grow mushrooms?
No.

Not yet there isn't. Although it isn't impossible... if you put your mind to it. Take a look at permaculture theory. Sustainable mushrooms would be tough, but not out of the question... -_-
