 P. Nameko clones from Grocery store

Pholiata nameko beginning to pin on sawdust block. I cloned a store-purchased mushroom onto agar, used that to inoculate rye grain, and then used the rye spawn to inoculate the sawdust.
Young nameko, first flush.
Right before I picked them and ate them. Delicious!
The second flush. My third flush aborted from the rising summer temperatures, so I went ahead and composted the block.

Lightly cooked, they are slimy but good and tender. Longer cooking eliminates the slime, firms up the texture and brings out a nuttier taste.
I kept the grow-bag closed until well after pins formed, then rolled it down leaving a 4-inch cuff above the surface of the block to help conserve moisture.
My grow chamber is just a plastic-sheeting-covered set of steel shelves sitting outside on my patio, with a humidifier.
I think the key to initiating the pins was the wild temperature swings between warm days and cool nights. We had a couple of really hot days this spring where I brought the blocks inside and stored them in the fridge until the 90-plus degree weather passed.
