Where can a mushroom actually be grown? In cellars, sheds, and spent horse manure, says William Robinson, and he explains exactly how. This practical guide walks through spawning, soil, heat and protection, turning an unpredictable crop into a dependable one. For the gardener who wants fresh mushrooms from their own dark corner.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
