Looks Like a Cow is Missing!

[kwcharlie]

OK, enough, she's not missing now , get on the keyboard and do your stuff girl, the hell with staying healthy you have responsibilities to the buzz'ers.
We need a FULL report then some photoshop work take your time, anytime in the hour or two
Love you girl, keep us posted here on how you are doing, post as you can
I'm getting ready to starting a mushroom farm wit wood plugs in some Ash logs, and grow tomatoes now in the garden, old hippies end up growing up don't they but getting old isn't easer. Maybe i should go back to the mushrooms i use to grow, no ut still get to teach how to id the males when only two foot high. OK i ramble, glad you are OK and am really going to grow edible mushrooms in logs.

Parts came in today. The case is is huge, holy sheep! lol I need to grab a sata dvd drive because the mobo doesn't have a pata port (forgot to check for that). Good thing they're cheap these days.

Sorry to hear you're still sick Bov. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I hope everything goes well with your family 5c. Sounds like a stubborn baby there.

Hmmm... aren't "those" kinds of mushrooms grown in cow pastures? In cow patties? lol

 

[kwcharlie]

NO other edible kind looking for the link, will post later. Too old, and out of that, to bake the dung BUT it's a doable, now with baked hay I'm told

That was what I was thinking....

 

[Wharf Rat]

'shrooms ???...........



Get back soon D !!!

 

[salemgold]

Really? Back in the day farmers would shoot first and ask questions later if you were caught snooping around in their cow pastures. Ahhh the good old days

BTW- Sadly I am old now too and that would probably kill me

 

[kwcharlie]

OK I ordered from Fungi Perfecti: the finest mushroom products for home and garden, farm and forest, people and planet this Plug Spawn Kit for Hardwoods-Fungi Perfecti looking forward to the Reishi, have had experience with the Perl and Shiitake, we won't talk about the San Pedro like ID'ing the males

.............. Lol !!!!!

There is a mushroom that grows here in Montana, but you can only find it after there has been a raging wild fire... When they are around people go crazy to collect them because they are worth more then gold ounce for ounce (or something close to that) It is crazy you have to have a permit to collect them and if you get caught the best case is they will confiscate your million dollar bag of shrooms worst case they'll fine you! And they don't even give you a buzz....

 

[salemgold]

No buzz? The heck with that!

 

[Wharf Rat]

The only time I get Buzzed anymore is from notcigs !!!!

 

[kwcharlie]

it's called the morel, not worth as much as ginseng but close, was taught how to "see" both in the woods by dad and granddad, part of growing up in southern Indiana
OK, hijacked this thread, didn’t mean to, just wanted to relate some old hippy stuff and I’m excited about my mushroom plugs and knew you could relate. I'll be looking for your posts mo-girl, and it will be a year before i know how my mushroom plugs work out.
YOU post here and tell me it's OK, i won't talk anymore about SP or ID'ing the males.

 

[moorea]

Yes, that is what is was called. The name was on the tip of tongue. And it was crazy here when they were around. There were people who setup stands every where with big signs telling people they will buy the mushrooms. People all over the woods picking them, people having them confiscated and getting fined. I think even a few people got arested. A friend of mine got a bag of them and cooked a nice meal for us using them. Frankly for what people were paying for them I did not think they were that good... I much prefer a nice portabella!

I don't think you have hi-jacked the thread... I think bov will appreciate a good mushroom conversation, I mean we did mention cow patties.

Salem, unfortunately NO BUZZ! It has been a VERY LONG time since my college days when I tasted the ones that did that, but it is possible that the ones found under the cow patties tasted a little better and cost a bunch less (assuming you did not go kick the cow patties to find them yourself.)

We got our internet up, still have some things to gather up at the apartment to get over here. Unfortunately I gave myself heat exhaustion and have been either in bed or puking yesterday and today I'm on the mend tho, and not being able to eat for the last 2 days might take some of the extra beef off my backside.

Miss Bovina, my medicine office is now open. You know of course I got my Phd. on-line for $189.95 plus shipping and handling and it was signed by a whole bunch of people.

Okay, lets get you all better here:

Breathe, breathe,

PUSH!!

How you feeling now?

We have Morel mushrooms here in Michigan. I was always told THIS was the only place they grew. ?? Go figger.
My buddy John (Dr. Fred here on ECF) got a two gallon pail full of them this spring.

 

[kwcharlie]

i thought the Midwest was the only place for the Morel's too, it seems they grow all over IF the mycelia is made to fruit by the ash of fire, And there is this: growing morel mushrooms has a semi-big [legal] pot of gold at its end. Want to get a autoclave for the dirt and wood chips?

From what I've heard, they figured out how to grow them domestically about 30 yrs ago. My cousin said domestic ones are difficult to grow and not as tasty as wild ones. But that is old info may be different now.

 

[kwcharlie]

very difficult, from what i hear it's in the inculcated media in a aquarium stage that is used for harvesting grams of mushrooms. if you hear any more let us know but if anyone has moved out of the sterile environment up to fruiting we would see morels a lot cheaper regardless of taste, just being to charge $30 for a $10 dish would drive any production. it could be that it's a USA thing, all the Chinese mushrooms are being grown

A good friend of mine used to jam with John Fogerty who is a mushroomalogist. He would go up into the Muir woods and pick exotic mushrooms and ship them around the world to top restaurants for big bucks.
