We have lift off.

Wow, we have mushrooms.  Gray Dove oysters to be exact.  These are the first to fruit and we are delighted.  This was an experimental exercise in different substrate taken from books and off the internet.  Our supplier, Field and Forest from Wisconsin also sends directions and are available on line for the occasional panicked question.  So here are the fruits of our labors.  Aren't they adorable?

If anyone views this who has any suggestions on growing oysters after viewing the pictures, please feel free.  We need all the help we can get. Thanks.
