Mushrooms and Their Cultivation - A Handbook for Amateurs Dealing with the Culture of Mushrooms in the Open-Air, Also in Sheds, Cellars, Greenhouses, E

This book has been written to meet the requirements of amateur gardeners who need guidance as to the various methods of growing mushrooms for home consumption. It contains a wealth of information, supplied in a concise and lucid manner, on the culture of the mushroom on ridges or beds in the open air, in boxes and tubs in cellars, under greenhouse staging, in old hotbeds or in frames and also in pastures. This book was originally published in 1909 but all of its content is important and still valuable today. We are republishing it here with a new introduction on mushroom identification and foraging.
