We need to talk to UB about making some clear bags

I wondered what would happen using uncle bens and opened it and put it in one of the bags you can order and then sealed it with a food saver? you would have to put breathing holes in the bag. It might take a risk of contamination Though.

If I were going thru that trouble I would just make my own rice. It’s pretty easy as I read

My All-in-one bags have an injection port and a micro pore covered hole.

The one bag of uncle bens rice that I put in a tote is really growing fast now there is a thin layer of mycelium starting to take the whole thing over.

The Dude grows his own supply

A parasitic mushroom growing out of a grasshopper. There are several species of parasitic fungi that are known to grow out of insects, including grasshoppers. One such fungus is Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, which infects and kills ants and other insects, including grasshoppers.
When an insect becomes infected with Ophiocordyceps unilateralis, the fungus grows inside the insect's body and eventually takes over its behavior. The fungus manipulates the insect's behavior, causing it to climb to a high point, where it eventually dies. After the insect dies, the fungus continues to grow and produce spores, which can then infect other insects.
As the fungus grows, it can produce long, slender stalks that protrude from the body of the insect. These stalks can contain the reproductive structures of the fungus, including spore-producing capsules that can release thousands of spores into the surrounding environment.

sorry the photo sucks but I can't

lift the hood off yet. But you can see the mycelium growing.

I wonder if you let a grasshopper into your grow area would any mycelium latch on to it.

Not sure on that one. Never heard of such a thing. I would go with something slower moving if someone were to try spreading it around like that. I think it would contaminate the grow because of the grasshopper having to poop in it or maybe the mushrooms would use the poop to grow because of the nutrients. Not sure on that one?

I did just get done inoculating some rye grain I bought with some blue meanie spores.

Do you see any mycelium growth in your uncle bens rice yet?

I bought my spores from Mush sense in case you wanted to try a different brand.
