Foraged some beautiful mushrooms from spectacular forests. These are amazing, up to 15% sugars, so you can ferment them into an alcoholic drink with no plant material.

Just finished a course for 30 students-along with lots of petri dish cultures and grain spawn, everyone was given a eucalyptus log to inoculate. Some people chose to do multiple species on a single log-shiitake and phoenix oysters, so in 6-12 months we shall see if these species are compatible.
I'm about to do some with enoki, shiitake and phoenix-hope to have a log that fruits over an extended time.
Also, some fungi prefer wood that has been colonised by other fungi.

Yes, you can do it. Take a look in the forest, you will find several species growing happily on the same log. You may only get one species fruiting if it is particularly fast at colonizing the log, but don't let that stop you trying. Different fungi co-exist on logs, perhaps helping each other-I find that competition can be healthy.

I'm in the process of re-stocking my cultures after a move interstate, but will soon have spawn, dowels, petri cultures etc.

I've had students fly in from Papua New Guinea, New Zealand and all parts of Oz, which has been wonderful, but I'm now working on an online course, covering everything from cloning a mushroom right through to harvesting and cooking. Students will get multiple cultures on petri dishes, as well as multiple tubs of grain spawn, dowels, and a bunch of resources to enable them grow lots of mushrooms.
