Anyone interested in Growing Mushrooms at home should buy the book:

 

"Growing Gourmet and Medicinal Mushrooms" by Paul Stamets

 

This will probably be the only mushroom book you will ever need. Its HUGE - 574 pages.

 

Paul Stamets also has a company that sells mushroom supplys including a kit to get started growing oyster mushrooms on coffee grounds. Its cheap - maybe $25.

 

A quick google search using the search words "coffee grounds oyster mushrooms" will reveal several webpages of people who are growing mushrooms in buckets with pictures.

 

Hope this helps

What kinds of mushrooms are you growing in the coffee grounds and how difficult is it?
