    I have a small balcony that functions as my garden and this spring I accidently grew champions in a pot that got some rain. Apparently me using the water I use to wash veggies and mushrooms to water my plants during the year was enough to innoculate that pot and produce a nice amount of mushrooms over the winter/ early spring when the pot was supposed to lay dormant.
    Really opened my eyes to how simple it is to grow mushrooms and really looking forward to giving your technique a try once I have a bit of a real garden.

    Great point about Vitamin D.... I was so vitamin D deficient I felt like I was dying, and I was sooooo depressed and my moods were swinging rapidly throughout the day... Once we figured out what was going on, I felt the effect from the Vitamin D supplement same day... I've been on the up-and-up ever since. I probably lived with a D deficiency for over a decade; but, I had only gotten bad over the past year.... 80% of Americans are D deficient, so watch out... People are likely on prescriptions but could be just low in Vitamin D. I was literally setting up a doctor's appointments to get an anti-depressants; but, I couldn't get in to see him for 6 months... Lucky me! Figured it out!
    Now I'm looking to get Shiitake to see if it'll lower help my LDL without me getting on Crestor 💀

      If you live somewhere with cold winters (like zone 6 or colder), I would wait till spring or keep your inoculated logs under a blanket until it gets warmer just because there’s a danger of killing the mycelium when they’re first inoculated. But after a few months of it spreading through the log they are fine to stay outside for good!
