I have not touched a sporeprint for half a year.
Supplies are running low.
The prints are watching me faithfully.

I looked into it, they’re made of oyster myc.  They don’t eat flesh and they suffocate the minute you’re buried.

I've thought about those trees they can plant you with, it would suck though if the tree didn't take and died in a few years. My loved ones would wonder if I was cursed

Pour 10,000 scarabs on top of me and seal me in a sandstone sarcophagus

I think it was in the book A Prayer for Owen Meany, a dog died and this lady was insistent they bury it under her bush. "It's good for the bushes!"

I'd be alright buried next to a tree. Just wary of it dying right away like lots of newly planted trees do

Well, you're talking to a tree establishment technician.  I have an extremely high transplant survival rate.  Key to survival is plant during dormancy, usually dec-feb.  Plant level with the very top of the buttress root and clip off any adventitious roots above it.  Support with two tall steaks and tree wrap to hold it steady but avoid wrapping the tree tight and causing growth to include the wrap.  Mulch with bark fines or chips, but keep it thin(1-2") and at least 6" away from the trunk of the tree.  Water it in good at planting and provide a deep watering at least once a week during the summer for the first two years of establishment.

Most people plunk a fully leaved out tree into the ground mid summer and that is a sure fire way to kill it.
