Hello there, I've been growing mushrooms for sale at the market for a long while now. For better or worse, the secret is out with regards to how easy it is to grow shiitake and oyster mushrooms at home, and it's a lot harder to make money off of them because when I go to market I'm one of 15 or 20 people with their own mushrooms. I'm wondering if there is a way to grow other edible, exotic mushrooms at home or on one's property. I'm purchasing three inoculated oaks for truffle production, but I won't see truffles for about 5 years with those so I want to produce other mushrooms — chanterelles, hen-of-the-woods, porcini, portobello and especially, especially matsutake mushrooms. I actually don't eat mushrooms at all, by growing them and selling them is how I will be able to afford to purchase a farm and live the life that I want to live.
