explain in a few words why you haven't started a farm

people need food to eat, there seem to constantly be more people

the median age of a farmer is like 60, so the field will be wide open

being a farmer is based and redpilled from a political perspective, it transcends politics and you produce what people need to survive, it keeps society running

no boss, you choose your hours, like right now, I should have went to my facility and turned the lights on, but I didn't, it's been 1.5 hours and not shit will go wrong, life will continue as normal

build a relationship with your community, sell to local restaurants and at farmers markets, leading to a possible career in politics or political connections

pay is good, work life balance is good, you are doing something that is morally good and matters to life on the planet

you produce an actual physical good or service

marxists should love this, you've literally seized the means of production

so why aren't you a farmer

if you're growing with artificial light, even high efficiency LED, you're losing money. if you claim otherwise, and you're not getting free or heavily subsidized electricity, it's just the case that you're too retarded to calculate the numbers.

Lmao sorry man I thought you meant purple w**d with
>not growing a green plant

mushroom farming is based I didn't realise that much lighting was necessary, I worked briefly at a farm where they only had fluro lights on for a couple hours a day

what varieties of oysters are you growing?

blue oyster commonly used in the industry is the most productive, and hardy oyster mushroom you can grow

my old garage gets heated to 50 degrees, which the mushrooms still grow fine at, they take an extra week to grow though

I think it's definitely possible they could do with less light

I'm a new grower and trying to figure things, and based on my setup tweak things properly

if you don't buy your strain from a professional farm you might as well just go fuck a duck

there is a massive difference, I bought a random strain on amazon for 13 bucks, and as you could imagine the pearl oyster wasn't so amazing

then I invested 140 bucks into spawn from a professional large scale grower, and my harvest and mushrooms were twice as productive, had 0 failures even at 50 degrees in the grow room, you can't be a professional grower just screwing around with any old strain, buy from a professional
