What are some of the oddest feed stocks that you managed to successfully grow mushrooms off of? I'm curious what potential there is for growing off plant waste from processing plants like apple pulp from a juice factory.

Spent coffee grounds work surprisingly well. Oyster mushrooms are particularly adaptable to odd substrates and I imagine they would be able to grow on apple pulp.
