Put the straw in the laundry or wire mesh basket and submerge it in the hot water that is between 160 - 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the straw cool and drain after it is removed. Next, break mushroom spawn into small pieces, mix it in with the straw and place the contents in a bag with small holes perforated. The mushrooms will grow out of the sides of the holes.

How do you plant mushroom?
You need something to grow the mushroom on/in, most plants grow in the dirt or as they call it, topsoil or potting soil. We call it "substrate" if it grows mushroom. For substrate I use straw. Other agriculture wastes can also be used, even used coffee grounds, whether by themselves or mixed together. the straw as it comes from the bale is not suitable as substrate. The size of the strands needs to be between 1½ to 3 inches; also the strands need to be broken or crushed so water can be absorbed. To accomplish this modification, I use a chipper/shredder to chop and crush the straw The next step in preparing the substrate is to add moisture to the straw; then the straw needs to be pasteurized. Some people wet the straw first and then use steam to pasteurize it. I take the easy way and just "cook" it. The straw is placed into a large wire basket, then placed into a 55 gallon drum full of water that has been heated with a propane burner placed underneath. After spending 1 hour "cooking" in the water at a temperature of 160 F. the straw has absorbed water and pasteurization has occurred. The basket is then raised to let the free water run off.

What is mushroom manure made from?
Mushroom compost is a totally organic rich, dark, moist mixture of wheat straw, peat moss, cottonseed meal, gypsum, lime, and chicken litter. This combination of ingredients is used in commercial mushroom farms to grow mushrooms. These materials are composted for many weeks and then placed into a huge room where it is completely sterilized and then the mushroom growing cycle begins. Strangely enough, mushrooms will only grow in this mixture for a very short time, usually 18 to 20 days. At this time the compost has to be removed and a brand new batch will already have been prepared for the next crop.
Can tomatoes grow in mushroom compost?
Yes, tomatoes can grow in mushroom compost. Mushroom compost gathers together ammonium nitrate, chicken manure, corncobs, cottonseed and soybean meal, gypsum, hay, lime, peat moss, potash, spent brewer's grain, and straw. It improves a soil's water-holdling capacity, increases alkalinity in overly acidic soils, injects calcium and magnesium into the ground, promotes appropriately slow but steady growth in seedlings, and treats blossom-end rot on tomato plants.
