Today, I feel like displaying some mushrooms here in Hive but before proceeding, I’ll like to thank every member of this community, especially @qwerrie and other moderators for the effort they have been contributing to the development and growth of the #Fungilovers community. I’m very much happy to make my first post in the community.
Naturally, when I was still a child, I used to follow my mother to the farm, and at where we used to see many mushrooms growing from unwanted plants we weeded days ago. I was told by my mother that the reason why the mushroom seems to be growing from the unwanted plant we weeded from our farm could be as a result of fungi availability.
As I started growing into an adult, my love for mushrooms increased significantly to an extent that I just developed a passion to see and touch them. Some mushrooms are very delicious for consumption but some may be harmful to the body depending on your environment of living.
For months now after I came in contact with this community, I decided to give try on growing a mushroom but my problem was how to start. Starting nurturing mushrooms becomes a problem for me as I didn’t have any knowledge about them. Weeks ago, I just remembered what my mother used to tell me on the farm that mushrooms only grow when there are presents of fungi in trees, weeds, and some other dead particles that have adequate heat comprising moisture.
It came to my mind that the easiest way to achieve nurturing a mushroom without stress after I put into practice what I was taught when I was still small through my mother, I gave it a try by cutting down a mango tree close to where I do my catfish incubation and hatching. I cut down one branch of the mango tree and decided to live it for a while for fungi to take place through the pores that were developed from the mango wound and cracks when I was cutting the mango tree branch.
After some months of cutting down one side of the mango tree, the branch decomposed which was a result of the presents of polypores making the mango tree decompose very fast. But before the presents of polypores occurred in the branch of the mango tree, it has rained and sunned on the mango tree for months.
One day when I was doing some catfish incubation and hatching business on my fish farm, I noticed that some mushrooms that looked like a shelf-type mushroom specie has started coming out from the branch of the mango tree which I cut down some months ago. To be honest with you, I never imagined with full confidence that at last, the mango tree can give me a colorful mushroom.
I have to allow the mushroom growth from the mango tree to reach some certain stage before I could take the picture to share here in the community. I’m glad to share with you some of the experience gotten and I believe that as time goes on through the community my knowledge about mushrooms and fungi will increase through authors' posts and comments.
Nice one
You're welcome, dear.
Sorry having to so generic comments today due to some issues with one of my hands
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)
Nice to hear from you dear.
