Abstract

This publication gives instruction on how to grow mushrooms at home. Users can build simple trays from scrap lumber, create a compost bed, order and apply spawn, add peat and wait for growth. An advantage of home growing of mushrooms is that they can be picked at the ideal time when the flavor is perfect.
