J,
Your right that your $30 mushroom is a bargain. I think far too many Gardner's buy soil and amendments in bags for too high a price, much that is shipped from coast to coast. Think of the waste of fuel.
Your lucky to be able to garden on the north west coast, I used to envy my old uncle's climate near you on Camino Island. He used to gather sea weed and all the flotsam that came with it to mulch his tomatoes. The salt didn't seem to bother them.
