   > I meant to say hen of the woods,   
   Been there with 100 plugs into short logs buried into our lovely sandy soil   
   since July this year...enter benign neglect....   
   But chicken of the wood still caught my fancy 'cause it likes the softer   
   woods and even puts up with aromatics [I have a huge stand of sassafras that   
   I need to maintain][hmmm..rootbeer flavored shrooms?...] I have 100 plugs   
   coming for my mimosa logs..   
   Anyway, for the chip bed, I am gonna go with your suggestion of pioppino and   
   then blewitt [?mentioned by the mycelial breadmaker?] 'cause they love yard   
   waste...soooo...   
   Grain....the closest true feed mill is 45 miles away and they are not too   
   friendly to 'little people'...Blechhh!  More negotiation needed...   
   The local Tractor Supply Co. has cracked corn cheap and alfalfa cubes   
   cheaper...after referring to Nitrogen content frome Stamets, I think I'll   
   use the cracked corn with the pioppino and the alfalfa with the   
   blewitt...just Chi thinkin' here...   
      
   Thanks for your thoughts..   
      
   Hmmmm... the molasses in the pelletized feed still seems it might be the   
   instant growth energy food for the mycellia even as you talk about the spore   
   and culture slurries... maybe this is a future experiment...
