Size: 8X5X18
with self-healing injection port
Features:
- Suitable for mushrooms, fungus, grains.
- Square gusset bags can help increase the amount of mushrooms.
- Using these bags for running spawn, and the mycelial fermentation cycle can be shortened.
- Air vent window design saves a lot of labor, you do not require drilling and oxygenation. And it can isolate bacteria via nanotechnology.
- Polypropylene, high temperature resistance.
Mushroom grow bags are an essential tool for cultivation, both for the professional cultivator and the enthusiastic hobbyist.
They can be used as spawn bags- in which the bags are used for sterilizing grain and propagating mushroom cultures- or, they can be used to create supplemented sawdust fruiting blocks for growing gourmet mushrooms.
If you’re growing mushrooms, you’ll want to be familiar with grow bags.
WHAT IS A MUSHROOM GROW BAG?
When someone says “mushroom grow bag” they are usually talking about a gusseted autoclavable polypropylene filter patch bag. OK, I’ll admit, that’s a lot of terms. Let me break it down.
GUSSETED
Gusseted simply refers to the way the bag is folded, with the sides of the bag folded flat towards the inside. One reason for this is merely so that the bag folds small and lay flat, yet can open up wide to take on a large amount of grain or sawdust. This shape is also quite useful during sterilization, where the cultivator can slip a filter in between the gussets. This prevents contamination from the air that enters the bag during the post-sterilization cool down.
AUTOCLAVABLE
Autoclavable just means that the bag is able to withstand the high temperatures of an autoclave, or sterilizer. Typically this is in the form of a pressure canner operating at 15PSI, which subjects the bag to a temperature of about 250 deg F, sometimes for hours at a time. Bags not specifically designed for this would likely melt.
POLYPROPYLENE
Polypropylene is the material in which the bag is made out of. It is a “thermoplastic” which won’t melt unless temperatures are sustained between 266 to 340 °F. This makes it an ideal candidate for holding your grain or sawdust during sterilization. A pressure canner wouldn’t see those temperatures unless the pressure got to be over 25 PSI, which is way over the safe limit for home cultivators.
FILTER PATCH
This refers to the filter on the front of the bag, and is one of the most useful aspects. The filter allows for the mushroom cultures inside the bag to receive fresh air without passing contaminants like mold spores and bacteria. Without fresh air, the mushroom culture would eventually stop growing, but if the bag were just left open after sterilization, contaminates would quickly take over. The filter patch is the perfect solution.
USES FOR A MUSHROOM GROW BAG
There are many awesome ways that you can use mushroom grow bags for mushroom cultivation. The most common uses are spawn bags and sawdust fruiting blocks.
