FUNGI PERFECTI MUSHROOM SEMINAR

November 17 and 18, 2007

 

SO MANY KINDS OF MUSHROOMS!

   

King Oyster, Oyster and Turkey Tail.

 

Lion's Mane and Enoki.

 

HUH?

 

I'll need Bob and Frankie's help with these.

 

AND THESE

 

I believe the mushrooms on the left are reishis.

 

MUSHROOM MASTER WITH TWO PRIMORDIA

 

Frankie, Paul and Bob pose for Frankie's cell phone.

 

SUBSTRATES

 

I believe the bags on the left are filled with grain which is then sprouted or fermented and the bags on the right are inoculated dowels which can then be inserted into another medium.

 

HANDS ON

 

Here's the fun part - everybody got to make a bag of mushroom growing medium from this pile of sawdust and other stuff.

 

AND THEN...

. 

All the bags are stacked on pallets and loaded into a retort.

For pasteurization.

 

DAY TWO

 

Reishis

 

AROUND THE GROUNDS

 

Morel sculptures and a mushroom compost pile.

 

THE BRAIN AND A SHITAKE LOG

 

This is what a maitake mushroom looks like when sliced.

 

LION'S MANE AND HEN OF THE WOODS

 

Mushrooms come in so many wonderful shapes!

 

LUNCH!

 

Paul brings out a tray of delicious mushrooms for lunch!
