Took about four or five months with just a tiny amount of mail order spawn and no real effort. May not be as tasty as some of the hardwood types (will know soon enough) but they are fucking huge. Gonna keep adding to the bed and move some of the spawn around till they’re growing all over my garden.
I’m a bit farther south it’s just now getting cool in earnest. I think I just need more time I only inoculated in august. Yours look great, how was the taste?
Maybe you’ll get a nice spring flush. Will report back on the taste in the next few days when I have a chance to cook some. Will be a first for me.
