All Growing Up


Just looking to learn and share about growing organically, permaculture and biodynamic gardening. Green living and practices, upcycling and reusing are also big areas of interest, as well as a few fun pictures and jokes.

(also want to add that I am not a vegetarian or vegan, I am a dedicated omnivore. However, I support individual choice and am into a lot of rawvegan diet/recipes/practices)

Questions or Advice: Both needed!!!

A Back to the Roots oyster growing kit we got at Whole Foods this weekend. Already soaked and ready for the twice daily mistings. Hopefully we have oyster mushrooms in about 2 weeks. I fully plan on trying to collect my own spores and use my own used coffee grounds as substrate to grow. If anyone has any tips on any of this, please share!!
