This is year 4 after inoculation in 2022. Shiitake usually flush from year 1 or 2 and then can flush a maximum of 8years which is incredible for a one time job and then wait. The logs I used in this video is alder but I tend to use oak, alder or hornbeam. Beech and birch can also be used. but yet to try myself. I’ll post a video of how to do it and the harvest over the years Is this something you want to try?

I inoculated these shiitake mushrooms in 2022 and had a few flushes from them after year 2 but wow! This is by far the best yet! Stunning!

Just use membrane, compost bag, or hessian, added moist soil, roll it up and keep it tight with sting or and elastic band and you can grow a lot of seeds in a small space

I have some diy plans in the works and you guys are my testers to see if your interested. Plan 1 - raised bed build with how to treat naturally, what to fill it with and how to plant 🥕 Plan 2 - compost bay 💩 plan 3 - log store 🪵

This year, as soon as the first seed heads set I'm planning on growing microgreens from them. Personally I love dandelions, only this morning I saw a patch of the bright yellow flowers then as an afterthought noticed the daffodils growing in amongst them, not explored all the herbal applications of this plant yet but I understand that they bring up nutrients from deep in the soil via their tap roots .
