Poor Man's Incubation Chamber
This is a description of how to make a poor man's inclubation chamber for about $14 to $31 from the Shamman's Shop site.
Edible Wild Mushrooms
This site is interesting because it talks about types of mushrooms that are easier for a novice to pick safely.
American Mushrooms Edible Wild Mushrooms
Elm Oyster Mushroom
This might be a better mushroom for me to grow than the oyster.
This is a description of it at Kaw Valley Mycological Society.
These are not suppose to taste as good as the normal oster mushrooms. However, they are suppose to have some health benefits in the form of immune-enhancing, cancer-protective properties. It is also suppose to help with inflammation when applied external to the skin.
You can get these from Fungi Perfect and from Shaman Shop (who gets it from Fungi Perfect). Cost about $20.
