i have 7 pellets for inserting into a freshly cut log-half are oyster mushrooms and half are shiitake !!!! ;D
i would like some red or different nasturtiums or a couple of bits of a dahlia tuber.......please...
i have done my mushroom log-you need to have access to a 10mm drill bit,and the drill(obviously!)and a log cut no more than 3 weeks ago....then put into a black bag with leafmold( think torn newspaper would do-its only for a bit of warmth...then leave it for 6 months -then cook your omlette!
i will enclose full(and better written )instructions with them....
i also have a tiny few rhodochiton seeds(very small,very few....for-what have you? ;D
first come first served!
come and get it while its hot!
when its gone its gone..
buy one......o-you know!

hmmmmmm...no one wants 'em ay?
*sigh*
ok.....
*kitty hops off........*
How long would they keep while I looked for a log? :)
oooooo-a while i would think..after all they are mycelium and its the very devil to get rid of if you have dry rot! ;D
let me know if you find a log-mine was only as thick as the top bit of a mans arm so ...you dont need a Mighty Oak!

Hi Kitty,
I have access to logs (ahem..) and would love to try growing these tasty fungi.
I can swap for nasturtium seeds or lots of mixed large poppy seeds, I also have a few different tomms ect.
Cheers!

so....i shall pm you my address and you can do the same .....nastyturtiums would be nice and a pinch of Large Poppy Seeds -t'would be mighty neighbourly of you!

Now I'm going to walk around terrified that a log is going to fall into my lap :D
but....to be fair..it would have a job to FALL into your lap if you were walking round...unless of course.....you have a very strange way of walking.....sort of scrunched.....and kind of hunched..
course if that IS how you walk i apologise....wouldnt dream of poking fun at someone so ...er.....movementally challenged...
;D
my mother used to say i walked like a ploughboy..
mind you she also used to wack me on the head with a frying pan with monotenous regularity..... :(
How on earth does a ploughboy walk? (sounds like the first line of a joke!)
Thank you very much Kitty! I've just sent you a pm,
Truffle
Well, if I wanted to avoid the log in the lap I'd be walking standing very straight up, wouldn't I? Dur :)
And if I wanted the log in the lap it would have to be more like those mad Russian dancers. Not convinced I could keep that up. Would have to do it where logs were flying around at some density.
truffle!
the pellety things and rhodochiton seeds will be winging their way to Truffle Towers tomorrow!
a ploughboy walks like me!you watch....there!see?
bupster-would you like some rhodochiton seeds as a consolation prize?
you'll need some consolation after doing your cossack dance...puts your back out worse than double digging!

:'( I have a front garden full of one week old logs, plenty of drill bits and dahlia tubers... Oh well... you can have some Dahlia tubers for cost of postage if you want. I have lots of 'David Howard' (bronze leaved one with orange flowers) and some 'Zorro' too. pm me if you're interested.
Hi Kitty,
I received the plugs this morning...many thanks!! They'll be in logs by tomorrow..
Hopefully the seeds I sent you should have arrived by now.
Thanks again!!
