DIY Mushroom Grow Totes from Scratch | Hobby Setup with Andreas from Satya Therapeutics

🔧 Building Mushroom Grow Totes from Scratch | Andreas from SatyaTherapeutics.com (Hobby Setup)

Description:
In this hands-on video, Andreas from SatyaTherapeutics.com walks through his entire hobby-scale process for building and preparing mushroom grow totes from scratch — using simple tools and materials anyone can find at home or the hardware store.

This isn’t a commercial or industrial operation. Andreas demonstrates a DIY, educational approach that can be used for legal mushroom species such as oysters or lion’s mane — and shares practical insights gained from years in Oregon’s psilocybin services field.

🔩 What’s Covered:
• Tools and materials (Sterilite totes, drill, hole cutter, micropore tape, liners)

• Measuring, drilling, and deburring tote ventilation holes

• Cleaning and disinfecting totes with vinegar and isopropyl alcohol

• Making custom tote liners from contractor trash bags

• Mixing grain spawn with CVG (coco coir, vermiculite, gypsum)

• Workflow tips for efficient small-batch production

• Hobby philosophy: balancing yield, time, and simplicity

💡 Andreas’ Key Insight:
“This process is what I’d call a hobbyist process — by no means a commercial one. I can grow enough mushrooms to supply Satya for a year in six weeks part-time. It is more about efficiency, learning, and clean technique than squeezing out every gram.”

⚠️ Disclaimer:
This video is for educational and informational purposes only. Andreas demonstrates general mushroom cultivation methods suitable for legal species. Psilocybin mushroom cultivation outside licensed facilities in Oregon is illegal. Always comply with all local and state laws.
