Welcome to the '''Pikes Peak Myco Wiki''', the knowledge base of the Pikes Peak Myco League, founded by [[Staff/Chris Vinci|Chris Vinci]]. It collects the techniques, recipes, and hard-won lessons of growers along the Front Range, written for people cultivating at altitude in dry Colorado air.

Everything here is free to use and share (CC0). If you have a recipe, a tek, or a photo of something going right or wrong, add it.

# [[Tutorials/Substrate/Coir and CVG|Coir and CVG substrate]] — the bulk material your mushrooms fruit from
# [[Tutorials/Fruiting/Monotub|Monotub fruiting]] — spawning to bulk, conditions, harvest
# [[Reference/Contamination|Contamination ID]] — what's growing in your tub, and what to do about it

== Contributing ==
Anyone can edit. A few house conventions keep things tidy:
* Put tutorials under &lt;code&gt;Tutorials/&lt;/code&gt; and recipes or lookup tables under &lt;code&gt;Reference/&lt;/code&gt;.
* Write in your own words. If you learned something from a video or another site, cite it with &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;ref&gt;…&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; after the sentence it supports, and put &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;references /&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; under a '''References''' heading at the bottom.
* Add &lt;code&gt;&lt;nowiki&gt;{{Cultivation}}&lt;/nowiki&gt;&lt;/code&gt; to the bottom of cultivation pages so readers can find their way around.
