have you ever considered the edible, medicinal and commercial aspect of this hobby as a possible future(how about a huge greenhouse behind the belly dancing school)?

what i mean is have you ever thought about investing the time and effort you spend or spent here, and put it towards the edible,medicinal market?

not for the money part but the medicinal and nutritional values we know some fungi have.maybe finding a new species that will aid in curing illnesses?

you have done a great job on the net hip, but can not be taken as seriously as stamets or other mycologist,you are the like stamets of the underground.

did you ever want to take it overground?

not really.
i'm getting old and fat and lazy.
that sounds like a lot of work.
i've got other things on my agenda.
i admit an increased interest in edibles
and even exotics like the glow-in-the-dark species we gave away here once.
and i want to research a lot more with edibles
grown out using the standard pf tek [or variations for wood-lovers, etc.]
because i think it'd be nice for folks out there
to have a way to just grow a few nice tasty mushrooms
on a counter-top for personal consumption.
