Episode 1 is finally here! I know you've all been waiting with bated breath.
In this inaugural episode, I talk with Henri Carignan, who has been growing mushrooms since he was 16, and runs his own consulting business helping people with their mushroom cultivation.
We had a great chat, going over a range of topics from Mycology + Mushroom Cultivation 101, tips for beginners, common mistakes, our favorite mushrooms and methods of growing, and much more! See below for timestamps if you want to skip around a bit, and some resources/links that we talk about.
