Although it's listed as a paperback, Paul Stamets' book is very comprehensive, easy to read and well structured. It features 31 mushroom types which can be grown on
wood, straw and/or compost.
It is intended for professional mushroom growers and for keen hobby growers and contains detailed information on making your own mushroom spawn banks from spores or mother strains. It
also describes how to make mushroom culture blocks and the optimum conditions for growing mushrooms on culture blocks and on logs.
Numerous photos of mushrooms illustrate how to set up a professional mushroom growing
facility. And the photos of the mushroom growers themselves show that they enjoy their work.
