Home-Grown Mushrooms from Scratch

A practical guide to growing edible mushrooms outside and indoors

Magdalena Wurth and Herbert Wurth

 

Home-grown mushrooms are both delicious and nutritious (rich in Vitamin D, amino acids and minerals). This practical book describes how to grow 19 different species including shiitake, oyster and button mushrooms indoors and outside. Once established, many fruit year after year so they are worth taking the time to cultivate.

Magdalena and Herbert Wurth have a long tradition of mushroom growing in their family. Magdalena is an agronomist and Herbert has been growing mushrooms in the lab and garden for over 30 years.

“I can’t recommend Home Grown Mushrooms from Scratch enough. Even if you don’t intend to grow mushrooms, it’s a fascinating read. If you do, it’s an invaluable guide and reference.”
