More Mushrooms


After we took the mushrooms from the one side, you can flip it around and spray the other side to get more mushrooms and it worked really well!


We're hoping to do a stir fry soon.

Mushrooms


Remember a while back when I was getting frustrated with my mushroom kit? Well I contacted the company, and saw a representative at the Boston Flower & Garden show and it turns out I was doing something wrong! When I opened the shipping box there was a page of instructions, that I followed to a T. However, apparently the box of the kit itself opened in ways I would not have guessed and inside that were a spray bottle and more instructions. Those instructions told me to submerge the entire bag in water for 24 hours to soak it, then start spraying.

I did that and look what happened!! One giant mushroom and a few smaller ones. We actually harvested these last weekend and had them on pizza one night. Delicious! My first harvest of the year!!!

Mushrooms... maybe


A while ago I saw this neat product on another blog and I wanted to check it out. I really love seeing what other people are doing - there's so many great garden blogs out there to gain inspiration from!

It uses recycled cardboard to make the box and then the growing medium is recycled coffee grounds.

Supposedly you just open it, cut the X and then spray lightly with water and in 10 days you'll have mushrooms.

I'm on day 7 and have nothing...
