wouldn't understand it on the high botany description pages. Oddly enough,
have not found many "mushrooms" on the piles to indicate who the mycelium
might belong to...probably because I use the material before the fungus
gets to the point of making 'shrooms'.

Well, I'm leaving one of the boxes alone, so we'll see if any 'shrooms
appear. Does anyone know whether this is a beneficial fungus? Would it be
good to add to the compost pile or dig into a new bed, or would it soon take
over and make both impenetrable?
