Portobello's

Gill fragments were taken from a mushroom I bought at the grocery store and applied to a salt treated agar to cut down on the bacteria while they grew out. Substrate is compost, spawn was wild bird seed and casing was peat/lime.

Very cool! Even though they're so common I think portabellos are beautiful.

They are common as hell and cheap at the store, but I thought I may as well have a Portobello isolate in my library.

Nice. Did you make the compost? If so, what was in it? RR

Thanks.
I make my own compost. I use 150lbs. of horse stall litter with 10lbs. of dry blood or blood meal added for nitrogen. Works great!

It's usually done in 3 weeks at the most. When the core's cool, the pile's done. Here's some information on composting I compiled.

Source please? If you're referring to agaratine, which is a (probably) carcinogenic molecule found in Agaricus species mushrooms, I've never heard that it spreads tumors throughout the body, that seems a bit alarmist. in fact, I doubt there are any verified incidences where agaratine alone caused tumors in humans...
Also with the recent research into ergothinine (sp?), as well as the old research with selenium for prostate cancer prevention, and the new transgenic mushroom research, the scales are tipping...

He says towards the end of this video. (Around -1:40 or 6:30 on youtube)
But I think he has some kind of personal agenda for saying it, just does not sound true, or I think it would be more common knowledge.

Button mushrooms are thought by many experts to be highly carcinogenic when they are digested, which can cause tumors and abnormal cell division. There is [or it is] a unique chemical that is in button mushrooms and portabellas, they are very much synonyms [I think that is the word] to smoking a cigarette, it is guaranteed to cause tumors all over your body, as opposed to just in your lungs.
This is as accurate as I could get it to be, and I put the punctuations where I thought they ought to be.

I've heard him mention that as well, but it's rather far fetched imo. At least to the point were the mushroom causes these problems among human beings. Most of the studies that have been done on this topic were on rats.
