How to grow mushrooms at home
Perhaps more than any other creature, mushrooms fascinate us humans. And with good reason. Not animals and not plants, fungus are a kingdom of life all their own. They’re the great recyclers of nature, responsible for decomposing matter and turning it into nutrients that can be reused by plants and animals, including us. They also take in carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, and convert it to carbon that’s largely stored underground and exchanged with plant roots through fungal networks called mycelium.
