I ordered a 5# bag of dung loving substrate in May. I ordered cultured syringes from a dependable source. I followed all of the videos and instructions on Mushroom Supplies . I inoculated, and waited. Did the break and shake and banded. Ithe contents became totally white and I started getting pins, mostly on the sides, then full on mushrooms. I sterilized everything and opened the bag to remove the maturing fruits, (2) so that they wouldn't drop spores. I cut the bag down to the bottom and placed it in a sterile tub and have been waiting. I am gettin some new pins and most are getting fuzzy, a few brown, mostly on the sides. It's not going so well.
