log o' mushrooms
Our friends The Blondes are keenly aware that AJ and I have recently gotten into mushrooms, so they brought us a mushroom log - since the outdoor hunting season is over, they helped us move it indoors. AJ made a little greenhouse for the log, and in about a week we harvested more shitake's than we can eat. Super fun!

Wow! That looks SO awesome! I've been hesitant to start growing mushrooms thinking the yields wouldn't be great. But look at all those mushrooms!! Was this a hand prepared log or was it purchased already inoculated with spores?
