Anyone growing mushrooms?

The edible kind that is :eyes:

We eat quite a lot of them and I've been toying with growing them myself. Any good suppliers or resources out there?

3. Uh oh. Looks like I should have started this a few months ago.

mushroomadventures.com is closed for the summer - too hot.

I think this may become a winter project.

2. I have a ton of them growing on a log in my backyard....

but I am afraid to eat them!

4. Me too!

It was a wet spring and all sorts of weird stuff was sprouting this year.

5. They are the same shade of brown as the log, and

it kinda looks like the log is morphing as it decomposes! Nature is cool! :hippie:

6. Get a mushroom guide

Audobon puts one out, and so does Petersen's. It will tell you how to identify them, and there should be instructions on how to take spore prints and do other ID testing. It'll help you find some nice edibles while out and about too!
