I decided to grow the spawn out before doing anything with it. I poured a few of kilos of wood pellets (compressed dried saw dust), 4 fire bricks (mix of dried compressed softwood & cardboard), a little wheat bran (about half a kg for some nitrogen), a little gypsum & the wood ash from 3 nights of wood fires (to lower the pH of the substrate & inhibit non fungal growth) into a plastic storage tub.

I then poured about 30L of really hot water (80⁰C/175⁰F) into it to hydrate & pasteurise the substrate. The lid is on & I'll give it about 12 hrs to slowly cool before adding the Golden Wine Cap grain spawn.

I'm deliberately using non sterile & low tech methods. I'm trusting my intuition & the mycelium's natural instinct to multiply. Nature gonna nature & I'm gonna FAFO 😆
