Mushroom Cultivation: An Illustrated Guide to Growing Your Own Mushrooms at Home Flexibound – May 8, 2018

We love this book. We are looking to start cultivating and when my husband unwrapped this book at Christmas, he did not even play his new Playstation that day; he read this book. Has been a clear stepping stone toward becoming mushroom cultivators ourselves.

This book is a nice bit of information about mushrooms that we all know about and some mushrooms that some of us have never heard of before. It got me going on growing mushrooms.

The book was beautiful to look at, though I thought that the pictures could have been more helpful in showing some of the information that was being discussed instead of just looking pretty. The information was good, and can definitely get you quickly started producing your own mushrooms. The types of mushrooms discussed were limited but I think that was most likely in order to make sure, as a beginner, you get off on the right foot and are successful. The layout will definitely get you easily started cultivating right away. It is a helpful book with a nice variety of cultivation options but definitely aimed at the beginner and after finishing it I was left with a feeling of needing to look elsewhere for more info (i.e. the "why" of things, more advanced techniques and other mushroom species). It was a quick read and well organized but I would imagine if you have done any mushroom cultivation or have read any other books, this would be mostly review. As a newbie, it was very informative and I will for sure be referring back to it.

Very well written and great source of information on how to grow your own mushrooms. Very detailed with many photographs showing you what you need to do.

Nicely written, easy to understand, explained clearly and with great illustrative photos. A pleasure to read after muddling through some other authors who don't know how to write but just put out an e-book to make money.

This book is great!! Very informative and great pictures. It covers everything you need to know about growing mushrooms. Great price and worth reading.

Good beginners book. Casual and easy to read with step by step instructions and pictures. Discusses only a few particularly easy mushrooms.

What a great book! Knowlegeable author, easy to read, and well-written. Loved it!
