Re: Mushrooms?

You probably don't need to propagate your own mushrooms, although a friend
reports success using a kit purchased for the propagation of the oyster
mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus. In zone 6 Pleurotus sp. appear on logs of dead
tulip trees, Liriodendron
tulipifera.  Get yourself a good book. The Audubon Society Field Guide to
North American Mushrooms by Gary H. Lincoff is well illustrated and the
descriptions often mention lookalikes that could cause illness. NAMA the
North American Mycological Association has field trips in various parts of
the country. Nothing like going out with an expert and looking at (and later
eating!) the delicious morsels.
