I'm pretty confident with my plant knowledge, not so much with mushrooms. <BR/><BR/>I would NEVER, unless I was starving and had no other choice, eat a box turtle. They can live to be a hundred years old if people don't run them over or turn their homes into shopping centers. <BR/><BR/>Lizza: Thanks for the compliment!<BR/><BR/>LGS: Figuring out how to cultivate them will be my next step.Eastcoastdwellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18140530743668908554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5875136140537336379.post-7795960186219661692007-09-27T05:31:00.000-04:002007-09-27T05:31:00.000-04:00Oyster mushrooms are delicious.
