Whoa there...,were mushrooms growers not scientist!.

I am semi amateur ,i grow most of my mushroom in my shed outside. Using fuel pellet with bran and my equipment consist of an instant pot,dozens mason jars and a few boiled and reused syringes.

Cant say i produce as much as some people but i think with the right mindset you can start the hobby with pretty minimal stuff ;).
