Lion's Mane Mushrooms
these mushrooms are incredible. Texture like scallop/ lobster. Grown on oak sawdust.

you're probably going to want to get an Oyster Mushroom kit as well....

Yes, they are very tasty! They did grow in my Dad's back yard for a few years and I would go out and gather them to cook.
Unfortunately, my Dad decided to "clean up" the fallen tree that they grew on. Darn it! If he had asked me I would have come and taken it in a heart beat. Might have to try one of those kits, myself! |

I gave a Sh*take mushroom kit to my brother last Christmas. That thing produced over a pound in 2 flushes. He absolutely loved it and is now looking into buying the plugs to inoculate some logs in his back yard...looks like I created a monster!

Just in case anyone is interested, here is a link to Enasco. http://www.enasco.com/c/science/Live...rowing%20Kits/
They don't have Lion's manes, but last time I checked, this place had the least expensive Portabella kits around. That was a couple of years ago when I got one for my brother and myself. Ours both did great. Well worth the money spent! They also have Sh*take and white mushroom kits. |

I heard that if you take some plain yogurt and over-ripe mushrooms in a blender and pour it on the ideal type of rotting wood log in the shade that you'll be able to grow mushrooms that way also.
I should check out the area and see if there are any wild mushroom foraging groups in TX. When I was a kid I'd pick puffballs in the northeast. Those are so easy to find, and they're delicious with eggs. |
