I remember lots of people posting homemade, fresh, yummy bread. Now everyone on chapo dot chat is discussing breadtubes?? Sounds nasty tbh

        I'm in dire and urgent love with the pun but also i must inform you that you need only enough space for a bag of uncle ben's precooked rice to grow mushrooms.

          Hmm I might actually look into that then. I've been cooking a lot of stuff with button mushrooms lately and already have a space where I have a small herb garden going and I think I could squeeze something alongside it

            This technique uses a regular plastic storage tote to grow either three large sawdust colonies (king oyster mushrooms, lion's mane), a bunch of small mason jar colonies (enoki, oysters and king oysters), or a layer of substrate (magic mushrooms). What I do is use a tiered storage shelf with 1-2 on each shelf and a small fan blowing fresh air in their direction. Whenever there isn't water condensation on the walls of the containers I spray them with tap water. Each produces maybe 1-2lbs of mushrooms per week. Outdoors I stack logs inoculated with various species on the dead space where I can't grow plants. Each will produce 1-3lbs of mushrooms per year for up to five years.

            /r/unclebentek is the technique to create the grain colonies for the ones you'll fruit. For that you only need a lighter, micropore tape, and a shelf. /r/mycobazaar has cultures of pretty much every culinary and medicinal mushroom while /r/mushroomgrowers is a great resource for fungiculture. It's great for gardening over the winter.

              Oh thanks! This looks pretty cool once it's all set up, I'll look into this a bit more and see if I can figure out where I'd do it. But thanks again for the resources!
