Growing Mushrooms

[kurosh]

So, this is my new hobby - growing mushrooms, LEGAL and edible mushrooms, not psilocybe cubensis (magic), although you could grow them the exact same way.

I researched and found the mycodome. The mycodome has everything you need to start growing mushrooms, including a sample of edible spores. This runs about $230 with all the upgrades. There are cheaper kits available, but they either are more difficult or don't yield as much. I would recommend this.

Unless all you want to grow is the sample you get with the mycodome, you will need to buy spores. This is the best website I've found for spores.

Some descriptions of the various strains.

The B+ strain is generally recommend to beginners for cubensis types because of its resilience and good growing speed. However, PESA seems more appealing to me. I would use that.

I got the mycodome two days ago. I've innoculated the substrate jars with the mushroom spores. Apparently it takes around two weeks for them to fully colonize and then I move on to the next step.
