Grow Mushrooms at Home

5_5_2008-mushroomkit.jpgWe're gardening novices here at re-nest, but we've found the Edible Estates project quite inspiring.

As a result, we're trying to ease into horticulture, which is how we found this kit. It comes with everything you need to grow mushrooms at home.

 
 

5_5_2008-portabella.jpgIf you've ever wanted to grow your own mushrooms (the fully legal variety, of course) there are a number of kits available online. Most are seasonally available, though, so you'll have to order now or wait until September. You can get the usual suspects: button or portabella, or a few slightly more exotic choices.

Kits from Mushroom Adventures run from $31-$34. Each kit will make around 3 productive crops of mushrooms.

We're wondering if this means there might be a productive use for our crawlspace...

I was wondering if "Edible Estates" mentions anything about growing some sort of food in apartment settings.

I live in an apartment in a city and therefore don't have room to grow a garden, but would like to grow some sort of food. I would order a kit if it could be used in an apartment setting. Do you know of any other companies or books that take about this subject?
