Re: mushroom soil..

Yes I use it. Early in the spring I get it for about $2.00 for a big
garbage pail full. I use about 10 pails of it in the garden. It is sheep or
horse manure, top soil, and peat moss.

What I understand is that the stuff is mostly horse manure, compost, etc,
which is devleoped specifically for growing mushrooms.  When the stuff is
"spent" for mushrooms, it is sold for about $20/yard.

(Don't ask about the pumpkin, I did about everything wrong).  Has anyone
had any direct experience using mushroom soil for growing giant pumpkins?
