What Fantastic (and Janky) Things Do You Do With Leftover Packaging?

I shred all my cardboard and paper with all plastic windows and tape removed. I use the shred in my compost. I also reuse it as dunnage if I need to ship something.

I plan on getting into building worm farms as a project too.

You can get a 12 page shredder used in tons of places.

I like to cut it into manageable sizes with this tool from harbor freight or one like it: https://hftools.com/app56192

You could cut the cardboard with a razor in a vice too.

I grow edible mushrooms on the shred too. https://lemmy.world/post/22563343

I've considered doing something like this too. Looks like you can make all sorts of cool stuff with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRa1Lx0zvkI

Blue Oyster on cardboard shred

Reply in thread

I found a 14 page shredder on FB Marketplace for $40 about a year ago. I usually just throw a couple of 35+ gallon garbage cans of shred in my compost, but this time I wanted to experiment.

In approximately 12 hours that little flush grew half an inch. Better ruler this time 😄

You can see in this photo that I just sprayed all of the holes with water like I do once or twice a day.

What have you been growing?

That sounds really interesting! I'm guessing you're in the Southern Hemisphere since autumn is approaching for you.

We have some bioluminescent fungi here in North America too, though I haven’t had the chance to try culturing any yet. Have you been able to identify any specific fungi growing on the rewarewa wood, or are you just experimenting to see what appears? I'd love to hear more about what you've found and how you're culturing them!

Also, enoki in the autumn sounds like a great plan—are you going for the traditional cultivated look or hoping for a more wild-style growth?
