Exotic fungi have even inspired
cookbooks dedicated solely to their preparation and appreciation, and
mushroom foraging clubs are proliferating worldwide. Still most
mushroom lovers would never consider growing their own fungi;
mushroom cultivation is thought of as chancy, something best kept in
laboratories.
Nevertheless, some adventurous folks (as I am :-) are
growing edible fungi at home. Indeed, for some species of delicious
mushrooms, cultivation is within the reach of anyone with the kitchen
facilities to steam carrots.
The oyster mushroom, Pleurotus
ostreatus, common on living and dead wood, is one of the easiest
(and most rewarding) of wild mushrooms to domesticate.

Hi Cindy,
I am only growing Pleurotus mushrooms, and know nothing about growing worms... :-)
However, I will bring some important info here and on my sites for all those who would like to start a small mushroom growing facility at home.
One important thing i must say now, it is not recommended to grow mushrooms in a basement!!! Need a separate room.
