spirolina is an edible algae that needs only water, urine and iron (from rusty nails for example)However, it needs quite a warm climate.  In colder places it is only possible to grow it in a greenhouse in summerA possibility could be to pump it through a wood stove or compost heater.

aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA).  apparently this has more chlorophyll than spirulina, needs less salinity, has more calcium, and importantly, can live in a colder climate.  But it seems it only grows naturally (not cultivated).

I've always used the method in the book of tempeh. Whatever tempeh starter you're using should create the same results.
 
 
Take some of the tempeh you're making and put it back in the incubator in thin layer in a clean container. Check it every few days until it starts to change color. You'll see when it's ready as it'll be powdery with spores.
 
 
Use a boiling water sterilized stainless steel strainer to rub the spore covered surface against. Collect the dust that falls and use that as your starter.
