    Sorry.[^] :-O I'm trying my hardest to stop, honest injun.

    Henry Minute Girl: (staring) "Why do you need an icy cucumber?" “I want to report a fraud. The government is lying to us all.” I wouldn't let CG touch my Abacus! When you're wrestling a gorilla, you don't stop when you're tired, you stop when the gorilla is. Cogito ergo thumb - Sucking my thumb helps me to think.

      That'd be great if this trick should work. I love stories with a morel. :rolleyes: Cheers!

              It's called "innoculating" and it can be a very useful way of farming mushrooms, if you have the right growing conditions. The rarer edible mushrooms have a symbiotic relationship with trees -- they actually get their nutrition by sucking on tree roots. Morels favor old deciduous hardwoods such as oak, ash, sycamore and poplar, so the best place to "plant" them is beneath and around very well established trees. They will make do with some conifers; in western North America, some morel subspecies can be found among pine, fir and larch. If you live in an area that is amenable to mushrooms, you can easily farm them. A friend of mine has a homestead in the northern California mountains: every autumn, they cut down a smallish redwood, drag it to their yard and wrap it in straw and burlap. Over the next five years, the tree rots and produces various types of fungi depending on how decomposed the tree has become, including oyster, enoki, bear head and wood ear, if I remember correctly. Keeping five trees going is pretty easy, once they are initially prepped, and the revenue from selling the fungi makes up just over half of the family's income.
