One upshot to our bitter cold temps-more mushrooms! My house got chilly which promted another flush of oyster beauties...yummy! This kit has fruited the most of any I tried in the past...maybe it's just that this variety matches my indoor "climate". Whatever the reason, hooray for fungus!

I didn't know that people grew mushrooms in their homes. Wow..

Oh yeah, mushrooms are fun in the house, especially in winter! I got the kit from http://www.fieldforest.net/
and they have spawn plugs to innoculate logs if you want to grow mushrooms outdoors, too! I went to a grower's seminar there a couple years ago, and they taught us all about mushroom farming as a business or a hobby-it was really fun!
