<div class="bbWrapper">I am researching the whole thing all over again and it would seem mono-tub is what I will now be doing. I think I will be using a blend of millet and corn for the spawn. I could not source enough at a reasonable price to go all millet. I want to be sure to go gluten free in my process.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">So I have been gathering up my materials. I am surprised you cannot just buy horse shit like cow shit! On E bay they want $23 for 10 Qts. I just drove around in the country (a nice diversion) until I found some people tending to their horses and asked If I could buy some shit? They laughed and said I could have all I wanted for free. They even helped me pick it up <img src="/data/assets/smilies/jump.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":jump:" title="Jump :jump:" data-shortname=":jump:" />. I gave them a ten spot because it is the right thing to do and I have a future source for all the best shit in town<img src="/data/assets/smilies/rofl.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":rofl:" title="Roflcrying :rofl:" data-shortname=":rofl:" />. Wally World is having a reset on their plastic stuff and have very little in stock and not the Sterlite 66L w/clear lid? I went a half dozen places before I found one at Home Depot. I got the Monsoon Solo at Petco. The price has doubled since May when Willy Myko made the video on how to build an automated MonoTub. I priced it online and it is what it is. I have to go automated for misting because there is no way I can do that every 8 hours <img src="/data/assets/smilies/shrug.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":shrug:" title="Shrug :shrug:" data-shortname=":shrug:" />. So on to the bird seed. This should be easy................. No. It is everywhere, right but the blends on many of the cheap ones have wheat or grain byproducts ? - remember I have to go gluten free. I got some with just Milo, Millet and black Oil Sunflower Seeds 10# 7.99.<br /> <br /> I did not find gypsum in the right form (powdered) or a reasonable size to start. It seems to be way more expensive than when I was farming. I guess it has been 28 years since then <img src="/data/assets/smilies/eek1.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":eek1:" title="Icon Eek :eek1:" data-shortname=":eek1:" />.<br /> <br /> I will chop up the poop tomorrow. I have a leaf mulcher but I think I would loose too much that way as it is a bit too big for the job. Maybe I will just put it in a bucket and chop it up with my floor scraper? Then I have a cement mixer to blend every thing. I am glad this stuff is so light. It is not a problem on my back. Then my bulk substrate will be ready to pasteurize when I need it.</div>

That may be a affordable source of gypsum for you, eh?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have no idea what is going on. I really like the finished product though. How long does something like this take to grow?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">There are many kinds of fall mushrooms I have recently had that I never knew about, Meadow mushrooms, chicken of the woods, hen of the woods. Very good. The chicken of the woods actually has chicken flavor and texture. &quot;it tastes like chicken&quot; lol</div>
