Hey oh

Are you asking for help on the mushroom mix, or saying you have suggestions?

For me, because of cost, what I would do is: Use a standard bland mushroom like Oyster and 'flavour' this with a dash or two of truffle oil or do something woodsy like a dash of walnut oil (or just add the walnuts in). I have also powdered morels (coffee grindered the store bought dried ones) and use this as a flavouring in cream of mushroom soup.

I know, its not going to be the same as going to the woods and harvesting your own wild mushrooms, however, urbanites and winter climated people like myself are distinctivly disadvantaged. AlthoughI know for spring next a morel patch that last spring gave up easily 50 black morels in a ten or fifteen foot radius patch.....
