To effectively perform spawn bag inoculation for your mushroom cultivation project, follow these steps:
- Sterilize your work area and equipment to prevent contamination.
- Prepare your spawn bags by adding a substrate and sterilizing them.
- Inoculate the spawn bags with mushroom spores or mycelium using a sterile syringe or inoculation loop.
- Seal the bags and incubate them in a warm, dark place until the mycelium has fully colonized the substrate.
- Monitor the bags for any signs of contamination and adjust the environment as needed.
- Once fully colonized, introduce the bags to the fruiting conditions to grow your mushrooms.
