Shiitake

Guess what I found in my closet?!
My shiitake (Lentinula edodes) mushroom bag from Fungi Perfecti!
I went to Paul Stamets' Gourmet and Medicinal Mushroom Cultivation Seminar back in November and had forgoten/ignored my shiitakes growing on woodchips since then.



looks like there is something inside....



A few good mushrooms!
So perfectly grown and with no bugs :)



The woodchips are quite decomposed.



Fungi are beautiful:




I ate the fresh ones and they were delicious.
I've been meaning to get going on my mushroom cultivation skills...When I am finally and completely graduated (two more weeks) I will.
