Time spent for research isn't "lost" - you need mushrooms, you know you do!!
Ok, I just spent an hour lost in videos on growing mushrooms. Tell me more!

I didn't want to seem out of control. I have already demonstrated that with wine. I didn't even mention the half hour searching for equipment and supplies. :rolleyes:
 
Well... I just lost an hour on growing mushroom videos.

If you have info or pictures you want to share I would appreciate it. Looks fun and interesting.
I got spawn from North Spore, they have a very informative site. Here are the logs with holes drilled and spawn plugs inserted but not hammered home. I don't know how long it will take to start producing but once it does they should produce off and on for several years.20240304_091025.jpg20240304_092552.jpg
 
Today was my first harvest and my Hydro garden, small but abundant there is cilantro and basil and time cool
My employees got together and bought me a Gardyn 3.0 for my birthday. It's a vertical hydroponic growing system with 3 tiers of 10 pods each. Everything germinated so now I'm waiting for the true leaves to add the nutrients according to the instructions.

I have a garden tower. I love it. The garden isn't quite as exciting in the spring because I don't feel as deprived of flavor rich vegetables, but that's my worst complaint. Herbs grow like mad in these things. Basil leaves bigger than my hand! I freeze large freezer bags full of basil and parsley and use it as needed.

You're gonna have fun!

Well, that looks like even more fun than the indoor growing videos I was watching. I am going to have to look into that.

Thanks for sharing.

It's March 5th. I know I've seen snow on St. Patricks Day and almost always a frost before the end of March. If I was a betting man, I would put money on Mid-Mo and by extension the bootheel getting some frost.

Most of what came with it were leafy products for salads. It would be nice if I could have fresh salads all year long.

I plant chard, spinach, and a few leafy lettuces and they all end up in salads. I don't plant greens in the garden anymore.

No bugs, dirt, or half eaten leaves to worry about.

Well I checked out the North Spore site and a voice in my head was screaming "NO!NO!NO!"
Bookmarked.
Voice saying "Maybe..."

I know how you feel, Dawg!
The forsythia haven't flowered yet. We ALWAYS have snow after they bloom. It may not stick, but it comes down.
