Mushrooms

[HayleyB]

Having had some success with various veggies the one thing that refuses to grow are mushrooms.

Binned the last box and now got three new ones (two chestnut.white closed cup one oyster)

And success at last - I have oysters wooppee

Still no darned 'normal' ones yet though. I've followed the instructions to the letter but I just can't get it - why don't they like me

can you get your hands on spent mushroom compost. i managed to and sprinkled some compost or top soil over it and wait a while then loads will come thru
