Substrates

| Newsprint |
Ideal paper for mycelium to devour, I prefer to buy this in large sheets as packing paper. |

| Mulberry Paper |
Much stronger than newsprint due to the long fibers in the paper. Can be purchased in a variety of colors. |

| Soybean Hulls |
An incredibly dense, absorbant, and full of nutrients. Must be sterilized. |

| Sawdust |
I highly reccommend reaching out to local shops and woodworkers first, but hardwood pellets can be used. |
