Thanks guys ... its not really a log, just a gallon ziplock baggy with pasturized aspen bedding, home depot sawdust and one quart of millet spawn on the first block.

The second block thats just starting to pin and the third block that hasnt pinned yet are made of pure paper products (used paper towls, shredded office paper, and shredded cardboard from a cereal box and a pizza hut box, crusty cheese and all).

I just boiled a pot of water on the stove, added a used coffee filter with some spent coffee grounds to it, then slowly added the trash .... used paper towls, tore up pizza box/cardboard, and shredded office paper until all the water was absorbed. Then I put the lid on the pot and let it set there until cool. Then I took a couple gallon zip lock baggies and dumped some grain spawn in the bottom, then layered in the pasturized paper stuffs alternating with a layer of grain spawn. Then I took a knife and poked various holes in the bag here and there .. then off to incubate.

Very tenacious mycelium I can tell you that. The shit will eat through anything!

Also, oddly enough, that second block that is pictured that just started pinning .... seems like its going to do better then the wood block.. it has more pins anyway.
